I made this simple, quick box for the LM2596 buck step-down voltage converter board because I couldn't find one that allowed you to install a case over a LM2596 with wires already soldered on.

This one is easy: you just place the board into the case with the wires in the voids, then place the top over it and seal shut in whatever manner you like; I use a couple dabs of hot glue for permanent closure, or a zip tie if I want to be able to open it back up again (with a little bit of hot glue in each of the holes and around the lid perimeter this case even becomes waterproof).

This design also includes a hole over the LM2596's voltage adjustment screw so it can be adjusted from inside the case.

This case prints super fast and only uses a minimum of filament.

EDIT: I adjusted the location and size of the voltage adjustment knob hole to more easily match the knob location, and tweaked the case top slightly to print faster and with less filament.
