Pull the rudder to the right, swing the boom [1]......there'll be a Sandbar along in a minute, I suspect.....

Sandbar,

I know how you feel about people copying parts and trying to flog them on.

It's not a part for a bike i'm copying, I want to make an enclosure for an device ive designed, i've already made an enclosure from various bits and pieces, I know want to make a more presentable case.

The device is basically a PIC based function generator, I've had to design this as my project for Institute of Physics and Engineering in medicine training scheme

Any advice would be appreciated

Back in the day it was vero board and a die-cast box to suit--- how things have have moved on! Must admit though the boxes never looke the business really bet carbon will look sweet. Hope you get on ok with the project as presentation counts for a lot IMO
