 One of the easiest ways to make a CrowBox of your own is to order the laser-cut CrowBox housing parts from  Ponoko, a popular online laser-cutting service.

(Ponoko has size limits on file uploads so this package is split into six files - you need to open the .zip file first and upload the six files packaged within.)  One of the easiest ways to make a CrowBox of your own is to order the laser-cut CrowBox housing parts from  Ponoko, a popular online laser-cutting service.

 **Disclaimer:** //We have bought several sets of CrowBox parts from Ponoko in order to verify their quality and accuracy. We have had good customer service experiences with them, as well. For these reasons, we're happy to recommend Ponoko as a place for you to buy your parts. Ponoko charges fees for materials, manufacturing services, and shipping but we have no financial interest or affiliation with them. We receive **no** money when parts are bought at Ponoko - we're just making a service recommendation. **Disclaimer:** //We have bought several sets of CrowBox parts from Ponoko in order to verify their quality and accuracy.
