Hi All:
I've got a propeller project I've finished. Basically, it's a remote terminal - a 4x20 LCD display that can be controlled remotely via a Zigbee radio. Right now, I'm using it to display data from my weather station, and to keep track of my car's position via APRS.
What I'm looking for is a "console" type enclosure with an LCD cutout for a 4x20 display. There are scads of handheld/mobile types, but I want something I can set on a desk and view from the side. I'm not coming up with anything that seems to be suitable.
Any suggestions for where I might find one? I can always go back to using a nibbling tool on a case, but I prefer something that looks nicer.

The enclosure I am using right now from radio shack is phaseing out, but you may still get one. The don't have cut-outs, however the hard plastic is easy to minipulate and sand down.
