Cheap Control Box

1 Attachment(s)

I wanted to share a little tip for a cheap control box. I happened upon a metal medicine cabinet at a local surplus store that was the perfect size control box. Cost $15. Yes, it even had the mirrored door! I removed the door and was going to build a metal door, but all that spiffy electronics was worth showing off, so I elected for a clear acrylic one.

Nice. Looks a lot better than my microwave oven. ;)

Thanks Mike: I have been stumped for an idea for a box and was going to build one out of wood, but this is even better!:)

I nearly bought this for the panel. :D

But the medic box is a much better choice, functional, economical & a great poser.
