As title says, Norms is pricey and I dont need the wiring and I refuse to buy one from Archee because he is an ass clown and doesnt deserve my money.

Just seeing if anyone has input

I made my own out of steel, but I guess you could also use aluminum.

I used this drawing by LTLFRARI on Old Europe

Yup, and they tailor it to the specific application for the post holes, i.e. an Optima has different side post loacations than a run-of-the-mill Sears battery, just gotta let them know.

Chris actually had all the AL bent up and ready to weld for about 10 boxes on his arbor table about a week ago so there might be a batch ready to go.

Also, you can get them CF'ed now ( overlay on AL ) for that extra special Fiero of yours :)

Why would it need a lid? Removable door?

Have you got your shitbox running yet? Go make another video
