Encasing the Tablet


While browsing the web I found several iPad and Tablet cases. Only a few of these were:

  • hard cased
  • waterproof
  • mountable
  • made for marine environments
The closest unit to my criteria was found here. A little pricey @ 150$




My poor-man mentality led me to an idea to make my own fiberglass hard case. It would lack the luster of these finely finished products however it will be reliable and functional for my purposes.

Here is a diagram of how it will look:

Features:

  • Made of fiberglass cloth
  • Thin plexiglass layer for viewing tablet display
  • waterproof
  • tablet side or top loading (haven't decided) into box
  • mountable to mast
Construction starts soon! More at 11...
