Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

After some research, I found good hardware to record my CMM2 screen.

I'm using a VGA to HDMI converter, an HDMI capture card and the OBS Studio to record the video on my pc.

The video capture card:

The VGA x HDMI converter:

Two videos that I recorded today:

I didn't organize the cables yet, my desk is a mess

Sorry, no. Never had any cases for the CMM2.

The cases I have are for the RetroMax (my version of the CMM2 with some extra bits.)

Micromite sells the cases, just be patient as it takes quite a while for them to arrive.

Leo,
your CMM2 looks to be the standard one from the July 2020 Silicon Chip article.
The parts list quotes this for cases:

1 Plastic instrument case, 140x110x35mm
Suppliers:

Jaycar P/No. 5970
Altronics  P/No. H0472
Element14 P/No. 1526699
Also: Digikey & Mouser

These are all "Multicomp Pro" ABS boxes; P/No. G738A; Datasheet

Prices are about A$7.40 in Australia.
Jaycar and Altronics are Australian companies and Element14 is I think from UK.

The boxes have removable plain front and rear panels but I assume you will have the correct cutout panels that came with the kit you presumably built.

Element14/Farnell trade as Newark in USA.

It looks like the current offering from Element14 has aluminum ends instead of black plastic. Either would do and they are interchangeable.

Jaycar are much cheaper than Element14.

Thank you Greg and Jim

You are right, my CMM2 is from silicon chips. I have the front an hear panels.

I'll try to buy a case with that specifications.

Thanks
