Hi,

I scavenged a piece of stainless steel electrical conduit whilst out and 
about in London. Example link:

75mm is the magic number, both the RX and TX modules fit into this width.

Cutting it however is another matter. I believe it is 1.2mm 316L grade 
stainless steel.
That doesn't sound like a lot to me, will a jigsaw with tungsten carbide 
blades be able to cope?

cheers
BMS
