OK pretty simple idea here. I have noticed actual project cases are usually very ugly and very expensive. Then even if you find a good deal it may be very difficult to get a similar or matching case later. Ooooh the problems today's nerds face right? Here I will show how I used 12 dollars worth of used and probably broken routers , a dremel and a few drops of super glue to make a cool case.
. I will use it to house a light , fan and ezb but you can customize your application!

Most routers have useful tidbits inside them to. And they just look good with the air vents, good idea.
Yup I robbed the antennas and DC jacks from them too
Those antennas could be really good to extend/improve the range of your cameras and the EZ-B. I am doing something similar on my Gunslinger Bob.
It would be nice to make a small amp circuit to boost ezb Bluetooth to class one power range... Then have a little antenna like this.
You can make or buy a little op amp for less than $5
Nice work. It has a real professional and chrome/metallic-like look to it. A great way to turn something ok into something really great.
There many parts in routers,and boxes are great,so far i dont think i have any bad yet
On my linxsys routers i get i turn them in to a very powerfull router using LINUX check dd-wrt site its free ,and all you need is a heatsink and fan,and some changes and firmware update and then i sell them on ebay,others are doing the same.
It makes them lot faster
