It was made of 2 pieces of L profile aluminum and a small hinge (piano I believe he said) and lined with foam.
Some Lexan would be a good choice too. That way you could see if there was a cell starting to puff, or if the heatshrink gets melted like I saw from another user here (can't recall who ATM). But, won't encasing the packs reduce cooling efficiency because of no airflow?
