I'm not a metalsmith, nor lathe master (like @xschop), so I made a comic-book-style plastic case. It's kind of like a Celestial meets robot head meets scifi trashcan.
It's an 800v version.
- The walls (plus top and bottom) can be filled with powdered aluminum. I'll just use layers of foil for this one.
- It has enough room to store the cables for transport.
It's silly, but I like it. And everything fits like it should.
I might make one that's half the height, but not any time soon (it took 30 hours of print time and almost a full roll of filament).
Hopefully, I'll get it put together tomorrow. I made the 2nd interconnect yesterday.
