Please visit http://OpenSCAD.DIY3DTech.com for more information on this and many other projects! As in this episode we will be designing a parametric dual socket electrical utility box in Open SCAD. Plenty of handy Open SCAD tips and tricks to be found here! Also our follow episode will be the cover too!
Warning line voltages can kill, use care with working with electricity and ensure you DO NOT use conductive material for any project which electricity.
