Estimated Build Time
Cutting and welding mild steel to shape a box should take about a day
Printing plastic consonants could also take about a day.

Building Procedure
1. Cut out the needed mild steel
2. Welding together the pieces of steel to form a box
3. Insert the 3D printed plastic pieces into the top of the box
4. Glue the plastic pieces to the box
5. Test the prototype

Alterations
We had an Original box which hard a thickness of 1/4 of an inch, and it made the box way too heavy. Now we are making the box 1/8 of an inch thick.
We originally had plastic inserts that were smaller, now we are making the inserts bigger to suit the box better.
