We're just starting out ... but Makerati is going to be a place for makers / people who are making cool stuff, to share ideas, promote products, and ultimately sell them to the masses.

Prototype #3 made from 3mm MDF. We introduced mortise and tenon joints, as well as "nodes" on the tabs to create some more resistance in the joints. We also extended the bottom tabs to become feet and slip grooves on the cable holes to help stop cables slipping back inside the box. Still a little loose in some sections, so the next version will be from 4mm finished product timber ply, with some additional tabs to strengthen it overall.
