  Your homemade one is pretty slick! Is that Lexan?

  The Spinneret was designed to fit the aluminum extrusion that Parallax has in stock. However, I do not know if there are any pre-cut lengths of it available or end and top panels designed for it yet. The original MoBo extrusion panels were routered from G10 laminate. But now that Parallax has a laser cutter, the Spinneret end and top panels could well be made from Plexiglas or Delrin.

  I've made carrier boards for the Spinneret similar to the ones in the following thread for the Propeller Servo Controller:

  They are single plates and not enclosures, but they do give some limited protection and mounting possibilities.

  Just two pieces of perspex and 8 risers joined thru the board with cut off threads then used dremel tool to grind holes to accommodate the power and usb. A bit rough but protects the board from being knocked around.[video]http://www.facebook.com/#!/video/video.php?v=201075106589361&comments[/video]
