I have this serial display for connecting to my Netuino 2 Plus:

 

  http://www.amazon.co...0?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

and now I am looking for a way to properly mount the display. I think what I want is a "bezel", so that any hole I nibble in my plastic case can have finished look. If that is the right term, where should I go for them?

 

 

Thanks.

 

[EDIT]

 

I think I found something. It just took a while for me to determine the keywords needed for the search engines.

This looks like it had promise, once upon a time:

 

https://forum.sparkf...t=16946#p100892

 

but the links from there are long dead.

 

 

I wonder why an LCD-ready enclosure (with a couple of cable glands)  is such a rarity? Is everyone just exposing naked electronics, hoping their cat/dog/kid/curious friend doesn't touch anything?

http://www.pactecenclosures.com/ and similar places are what I usually use.  Generally I use a metal ruler and a sharp knife/band saw/drill/soldering gun to make openings.

Search for Pandora's box on these forums. Take a look at my case. It's a laser cut acrylic face (bezel). Is this what you are looking for?

Digi-Key also has an assortment of LCD bezels.  Various sizes, different mounting methods, etc.







Also tagged with one or more of these keywords: case, bezel, nibbler, display
