Do I have to cut the front myself?
Scanpods are supplied uncut as standard. However, for a small fee we can supply pre-cut for your electronic.
How do I cut the pod front?
Use jigsaw, but slow it right down so as not to melt the ABS. Move slowly and patiently through the plastic.
What are Scanpods made from?
They are made from acrylic capped ABS plastic, which makes them tough, corrosion free and UV stable.
