Making an Enclosure
One of the more difficult things I've faced so far in this project is finding a good enclosure. I need something that will fit my electronics and will also fit in my RC car. I also want something that's fairly water resistant since it tends to rain a lot around where I live near Seattle. I tried food containers (the round corners posed challenges), a Savox servo plastic box (the lid won't stay closed), and some project boxes that I got on Amazon (they're pretty heavy and tend to be too tall for what I need).

Blast From My Past Long ago I thought I wanted to be a mechanical engineer (I still think it would be a ton of fun). After high school, I worked in a metal fabrication shop at this place for a year before starting college, and again a few summers between semesters. Working there, I did everything from assembling hoppers and huge X-ray cabinets (used to inspect airplane parts)...
