Hey all.

I am looking for a project box to house ONLY a standard 16x2 serial enabled LCD. It is going to be stuck to a desk and cabled out to the control unit below. I am looking for a nice compact enclosure with a display cutout and slanted front (preferably).
Any recommendations?


thanks

I used these in projects before: they're quite nicely made. Don't remember if the opening is large enough for 16x2, I used LEDs.

Thanks for the reply. I'm hoping to find one that is just like the forward LCD section of that without all the extra. All I am housing is the LCD. No other circuitry
