I know it's not perfect but i think it turned out ok considering the limited tools I had which consisted of a couple of cheap chisels a hand saw and a little drill.
Mod maker 510, button and bottle with 0.6mm silver contacts
Wood used is a scrap piece of oak from a staircase banister that's being fitted in a house I was working at

Thanks, the door is from a different piece so I thought I'd have the grain in the opposite direction for some contrast. I'm quite happy with it for a rush job
 
Another nice Homemade piece. I like to see creations by fellow Apes. Well done and thanks for showing it off. @Trevbrown
It's something I've been thinking of doing for a while, looked at getting a box printed for me but couldn't justify the cost for a custom one so when I spied this piece of scrap oak on the floor in a new build house I thought why not give it a go. If I messed it up it's no loss and I have enough left for a couple more so I'll take my time with them and try something different.

Have a look here there maybe something at a reasonable price for you.

I had had a look mate there are quite a few ready designed boxes about for good prices I was looking for something of my own design and it gets expensive like that, I don't have the knowledge to draw my own in a printable file so the cost goes up from there

Wait for a few days until I get and assemble my printer,I will make you one,
altough no plastic can compare with wood,very nice mod mate,
keep them making.
Dremel tool can be very helpful,
I bought myself decent from Amazon for just 24£

That would be awesome mate! I have been looking at printers and milling machines but printers seem to be a minefield of problems lol I do actually have a dremmel somewhere but sadly have misplaced it it's charger and most of the bits! Luckily it was quite easy to do without
