Happy New Year to all:-)

Hmm, are there mech specs on those connectors, they don't look too small, seems like they could be 3d printed.

Saw the article. Modified my PIL-Box a while back. Nice writeup.

They are. Martin Hepperle solved this already.

Thanks, Raymond, for writing and sharing this article, really great !

Quote:Many thanks to Jean-Francois Garnier for inventing the incredible and phantastic PIL-Box,
and for choosing a small and very nice case for it:-)

Thanks for your kind words.
I was very lucky (or wasn't it luck?) to choose a standard box that is still available more than 10 years later.

A quick research tell me that you are using a Gainta G431/G403 90x50x24mm plastic box, isn't it ?

The box is available under several brand names but the root ref is G403 indeed. I never saw any difference between the products so I believe they all are using the same mould set.
