Enclosure

If you don’t have access to a 3D printer, you can have the models printed by an online 3D printing service. HERE, you’ll find instructions on how to do this. Alternatively, if appearance isn’t a priority, you can use any waterproof lunch box. The "IKEA 365+ food container" works particularly well for this purpose.
