If one wants to build stuff like that -- I wonder - how do you do the low-tech stuff (the hardware that is not electronics but the plastics/aluminium shell, glass, etc.)? What skills/tools are required to actually create that? How do you get started if you can't afford mass-production at the beginning?
- HeyLaughingBoy 15y agoSimple: you design your electronics to fit existing cases that can be purchased off the shelf. Here's one of my favorite vendors: http://www.polycase.com http://www.polycase.com There are many, many vendors of plastic and metal electronics enclosures. Many of them will customize them for you with printing, cutouts for displays, etc. I know Polycase will do so very cheaply.
