It’s been a few years since I have done anything with this project, and while the interest has dropped off, I still get occasional requests for a built version and have since I first posted the plans. The info on how to build one is on this website<\/a> and Github<\/a>, but for some without the skills, desire, or time, I thought I try to sell a few handbuilt kits. Make no mistake – this isn’t a production run from a factory – I will be building the kit and mounting it in an enclosure. The only thing new here is a 3D printed faceplate for the LED version. I am using an extruded aluminum enclosure that measures 120mm x 97mm x 40 mm that’s available from Amazon should others want to build this enclosure. It’s been available on Amazon since 2015, so hopefully it dosen’t dissapear in a year! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Curretnly, the back plate is a drilled and laser engraved aluminum plate – one of the two that’s included with the enclosure. My metalworking skills aren’t all that great… further enhancing the handbuilt esthetic. <\/p>\n\n\n\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n\n\n\n
