Banana plug resistor box

thingiverse

This is a small box for connecting a resistor to a circuit with banana plug test leads. I made it primarily for connecting a high ohm resistor in series with ground for ESD protection, but the design could also be used to hold other small components. **Printing** I recommend printing the lid with support. **Assembly** You will need: - Two banana sockets - One small screw - One resistor Threading the nut onto the socket from the inside can be tricky since there isn't a lot of space. Try plugging in a banana plug into the socket before mounting it and use it to thread it onto the nut. Hold the nut with a pair of pliers. Once the threads have caught you can use two pairs of pliers to turn it the rest of the way. I designed it around the cheapest model of banana socket you can find on Aliexpress/Ebay. Others models might also work.
