I have a Gallop43 board that I will use with with my Overo FE and an LCD. Are there any enclosures commercially available which can be used for this and still support two connected u.fl antennae and the LCD? Or even one connected antenna? Another idea: are there any drawings of enclosures that could then be used by a machine shop to fabricate an enclosure...probably of plastic or clear acrylic? Thanks very much for any ideas out there. Bob Cochran |

Figure about $60-80 per enclosure, but you get the exact dimensions you want, and all the ports are exactly where you want them. I also got a sliding lid working so you can get to the battery without having to unscrew anything. A much cheaper option is laser cutting, which gives you lots of choices for material thickness and colour, but you can't have curved edges or sliding lids, and you have to glue or screw the sides together. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Enclosures-For-Gallop43-Board-tp30451259p30480369.html Sent from the Gumstix mailing list archive at Nabble.com. |

Where did you do the 3D printing? Did you buy your own 3d printer or use a service? Tom |

The online sites like ponoko.com or shapeways advise it can take 10 days to handle the order + shipping times. Ponoko can also laser cut plastic, aluminum and steel. If you go with a plastic case you can buy an EMI spray to add shielding if needed: http://www.mgchemicals.com/products/shielding.html -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Enclosures-For-Gallop43-Board-tp30451259p30485572.html Sent from the Gumstix mailing list archive at Nabble.com. |

Bob, did you ever get a reply or something going? I am in the same place and need an enclosure for the same hardware. Thanks Bulent |
