Only problem is the color isn't black. StarBoard is great if your only doing one box but if you do several it get expensive fast. I also think I came up with a better way for connecting my front and back that will make them quick release for dismantalling the box. Of couse there isn't any reason to dismantale it very often.
Yeah, I was thinking of taking some pics of the dual motors now that I am getting close to the end. I need to disassemble it all anyway for painting so I thought I would take then then for posting.
By the way are you mountainbiker on EcoForumz.com ?
I thought you used ABS, my bad. ABS is a good material, but I didn't really consider it very long since it can ruin your saw blades. What material are you considering using for future cases? If you look at the photo I posted of the XLR chassis plug wired to the CellLog harness, you'll see that the plug extends down about an inch below where it attaches to the top of your case material. Rather than extending the case length by an inch and deal with securing the heavy battery so it wouldn't move around (the inch needed by the XLR chassis plug is only about a square inch) I'd rather create an bump out on the top of the case for that extra inch of XLR plug. Are you painting the motors? Sorry if I misunderstood.
