Steps:

1. Print the Enclosure.

2. If you're doing heat-set inserts, stick those in the 6 holes around the base, and the 4 holes for the controller.

3. Figure out what you want to do for the baseplate. You can EITHER print one or make one some other way. I made one out of clear polycarb, like I linked above. If you're doing polycarb, you can CNC it if you're rich I guess? I just printed that pdf and used it with scissors and a drill to make the part. Easy. Or just print the Baseplate.stl file.

4. To attach the controller,
