Well Folks,
I just built three of these fine little guys and
I found a Radio Shack box ( 270-1806 ) that I modified to do the job.
It was just the size of the board, so I cut 3/4" slots front and rear to
clear the connectors. On one side you loose the posts to fasten the top,
but on the other you can leave them if you are careful and use two longer
screws to put the cover on. The you cut a 3/4 x 3/8 slot for the power
connector.
Came out quite nice when all was said and done.
The box is 2" deep as it comes, but if you have access to a band saw or the
like,
you can cut it to about 1 1/4 making a flatter package.
Hope this helps some.
