I need some project boxes and was hoping to get advice on how to make
them.

I ruled out metal because small PCBs will be the contents of the boxes
and for obvious reasons this will not work.

That leaves plastic and wood. Has anyone here ever had to make project
boxes? And if some I'd appreciate some pointers.

Thanks.

Why is that obvious? Tons of people put pcb's into metal boxes.

Use more PCBs to make your boxes. Kinda like 'birds of a feather....'

Yeah metal is great!  It shields, it conducts heat, it's strong...what
else could a man want?
