Electronic Project Box With Cap
Created today
Description
A heavy-duty electronics enclosure featuring a robust 10 mm lid designed to support underslung components. The base provides 130 mm of internal depth, bringing the total outer height to exactly 140 mm when assembled.
Customization Hooks
- Cap Depth: The 10 mm lid thickness is ideal for countersinking hardware or adding custom mounting bosses on the underside.
- Heat Set Inserts: Sized for standard M3 brass inserts in the heavy corner posts (4.2 mm hole diameter, 6 mm deep).
- Wall Thickness: Built at 3 mm, balancing rigid structure with material efficiency.

Biofloc Monitor Station Enclosure
An enclosure is only as good as the snarl of wires it prevents. This is a heavy-duty two-part monitor housing built specifically for FDM printing, designed to group, separate, and anchor a complete suite of biofloc water-quality electronics without turning into a bird's nest inside. The layout isolates the battery compartment at the bottom and keeps the DC buck converters and relay in a ventilated top section, leaving the central deck clear for the ESP32 and an array of sensor interfaces. Internal divider walls double as cable routing channels, forcing the wiring to stay orderly. Core Features Printability: Both halves print completely flat on the build plate (Z=0). The integrated bottom handle is flush with the front face to avoid overhangs. Dimensions: 170 mm width × 250 mm height × 75 mm depth. Hardware Required: 6× M3 screws for the rear cover; additional M3 hardware for the internal standoffs and the 16x2 LCD faceplate mount. Ports: Bottom panel holds 4× sensor ports (3× 8mm, 1× 6mm) with engraved labels. Right panel holds cutouts for 12V DC, an SD card slot, a rocker switch, and USB programming access.
Industrial Wearable Electronics Enclosure
A heavy-duty three-part electronics enclosure designed for wearable prototype suits. Features a slide-and-lock fabric mounting plate that allows the main box to be removed without unthreading straps. Main Box: 140 × 90 × 40 mm with 3 mm walls and 10 mm side ports for external sensors. Mounting Plate: Slotted for fabric straps, featuring a male dovetail rail that slides into the main box and locks with a single pilot screw. Lid: Secures with four M3 screws into tapped corner bosses, featuring a 90 × 50 mm blank recess for a separate logo plate.
Flanged Triangular Drop Box
Drop-in triangular trays always slip through the hole they're meant to sit in. This is a heavy-duty triangular insert with a massive flange, designed to drop exactly 100mm into a cutout and stop dead on the rim. Dimensions Main Triangle: 150mm on all sides Drop Depth: 100mm total Flange Overhang: 30mm outward lip Wall Thickness: 5mm (strong enough for tools or heavy parts)
LockDrop — Packout Cup Holder
A rugged, drop-in cup holder designed to integrate perfectly with the Packout system. Secures easily onto any standard Packout lid using an integrated twist-lock cleat that sits flush for straightforward 3D printing. The main body accommodates standard tumblers and bottles while the heavy-duty walls and gussets ensure side-load stability. Features Twist-Lock Cleat: Drops into standard female Packout receivers with a friction fit. Flush Base Construction: Designed to print cleanly without complex supports for the bottom locking mechanism. Heavy-Duty Walls: Thickened sides with structural gussets engineered for shop environments. Front Branding: Embossed Milwaukee logo wrapping the front curve for a finished tool aesthetic. Drainage: Integrated center channel prevents liquid and debris buildup.
OptiFix — CD Diffraction Rig
OptiFix is a one-piece rigid alignment jig designed for CD diffraction experiments. It firmly holds a standard 120 mm CD in a vertical slot and aligns a 14 mm laser pointer on an exact perpendicular axis, ensuring a clean horizontal diffraction pattern. Features Absolute Alignment: Positions the laser center precisely 65 mm above the base, directly in line with the CD's center. Track Targeting: The laser axis is offset sideways to hit the data tracks 2.3 mm inward from the CD's outer edge, catching the vertical track lines to cast a horizontal pattern. Snap-in Towers: Two separate cradle towers grip the 14 mm laser via a narrow 12.5 mm top opening, eliminating the need for rubber bands. Stable Base: An expanded L-shaped footprint keeps the setup planted on the desk.
60mm Winding Spool With Anchors
What it's for A compact, highly functional utility spool tailored for winding wires or thin cables. It features two specialized holes: a 2.5 mm pass-through hole at the base of the core to thread the start of the wire, and a smaller 1.5 mm hole on the outer edge of the flange to secure the loose end once wound. Dimensions Outer Diameter (Flanges): 60 mm Core Outer Diameter: 25 mm Central Axle Hole: 8 mm Groove Width (Winding Space): 15 mm Flange Thickness: 2.5 mm each (Total height: 20 mm) Assembly Slide onto an 8 mm rod or bolt to spin. Pass the start of the wire through the inner bottom hole to anchor it, wind evenly across the 15 mm groove, and lock the tail through the outer top hole.
