Yet another resistance decade box
Fortran:
I think the gray ones are prettier :)

just for reference here's the 18x6 and 22x8 for comparison

I've been playing around with a case design for the 18x6 ones. it needs some tweaking and to actually be printed (and my 3D printer is awaiting a new hotend to arrive). I can't print right now but here's what I've designed for a case.
100mmx60mmx25.4mm (just a starting point, like i said needs tweaking)
(edit, actually a bit bigger, the square part of of it is 100x600)
designed to be stackable (magnets on bottom, countersink screws on tops)
setup for 4W on back (.75in spacing)
2 piece print
One tweak is I embossed the top by 1mm, kinda messes up the stacking after I looked at it
fixed this by adding a 1mm recessed area then embossing by 1mm (see capture4)
Comments welcome, changes, tweaks all welcome.
happy to post STL to thingverse when done (or just here if preferred)
note:
i had a 10 decade thumbwheel and that's the dimensions I used. it could be smaller for a 6 decade unit
bitseeker:
I like it, Sandra. What's the minimum length possible (i.e., would the case bump into the switches first or the binding posts)?

Just an uneducated guess - but wouldn't the larger one be easier to work with ? (I haven't got my goodies yet)
I wonder when the Chinese will read this topic and start making these? Seems a really good item. Who came up with this great idea?
Any other ideas what to do with these switches. I am thinking about a combo lock
