Any project boxes for the SX?

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knew of any project boxes that fit the mounting holes on the SX protoboards?

It just needs to be dust/ dirt proof, much like the Radio Shack project boxes. I see many vendors are selling many, many different kinds of project boxes, but looking online at each one to see inside dimentions for the mounting bosses can become madenning!

Any ideas or perhaps a better way of searching for this?

If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving is not for you.

    I'm sorry, but, how likely could it be that·any off-the-shelf project box could have board mounts (bosses, stand-offs, call them what you will) matching the SX Protoboard mounting holes?

    I figured the chance to be pretty small, but possible. I know the board sizes are designed for the Parallax robot frames and not for boxes.

    Perhaps a box for these custom made by/for Parallax is a possibility? It seems there would be a demand for this.

    If I do find one, I will definitely post my results.

    Not enough of a demand to justify the expense of tooling....

    I figured that was the reason.
