@Paul: Thank you.

@Uze:

Yes I will later offer a milled Hammond enclosure too. Here are some impressions about the first prototype PCB in Hammond 1455L1201 enclosure...

Hi Harty, do you already sell a milled Hammond case for the EUzebox?
Couldn't find it on your homepage... ;-)

Greetings

PS: It's time to prepare my EUzebox a nice home now... :-)

Hi,

yes that was my first idea, but was never realized! Pls use Hammond 1455N1201 - this enclosure is a little bit higher...

Hi,

at the moment I'm preparing an enclosure kit for the EUzebox 01-03 and 01-05. It based on a slim aluminium case of a german manufacturer and is much smaller as the Hammond case:
