PC Fan Controller Box 3.5"

I really appreciate the great design by Aussie_ben! Thanks for sharing it with us. I took that original design and made a few tweaks to turn it into a fully enclosed box for my Vantec Nexus Fan Controller. I'm using it to control my 40mm fans on the stepper motors, so I wanted something that would keep everything nice and secure. To make this happen, I used Sketchup to slice and copy one full side of the original design, then flipped its orientation and attached it to the open side of the box. I also moved the middle screw holes on each side back by 5mm to ensure the controller front fit perfectly flush. It was a bit of a tight squeeze, but in the end, everything fits together just fine. If I were to print this again, I'd probably scale it up by about 1% to make things even easier. I've included the SKP file I used for reference, as well as the two STL files that I printed using Simplify3D via an SD Card: "Fan Controller Cover.stl" and "Fan_Controller_Cover_Fixed_MakePrintable.stl". Make sure to check your preview before printing, since Cura/Sl1cer seemed to have some trouble with errors.
