This paper explores the problem of designing enclosures (or
physical cases) that are needed for prototyping electronic devices.
We present a novel interface that uses electronic components
as handles for designing the 3D shape of the enclosure.
We use the .NET Gadgeteer platform as a case study of
this problem, and implemented a proof-of-concept system for
designing enclosures for Gadgeteer components. We show
examples of enclosures designed and fabricated with our system.
