This enclosure is to hold a standard low cost temperature controller. Probe holder over here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:117711
I had some trouble printing it when the room temperature suddenly changed, but the box came out usable. I did have to scrape the opening for the controller as part of the controller was a little wider than where I had measured.
It's a retrofit so it mounts with one screw (with washer) through the bottom of the case and the sensor, fan, and heater wires go through the tapered hole.
The elongated hole in the rear is for a power cord strain relief, the type you squeeze onto the cord and press in. There's a resess because the strain relief won't clip on thick material.
The lid with some conversions on it is leaning against the side.
The upper holes are for cooling.
A #4 nut slides into the pockets in the side tabs so you can screw the lid on.
I made the name plate on a CNC mill.
