hey mate, i may be interested in a template as well, maybe a cardboard cutout template posted or something, as i can probably source the sheet metal and insulate the box myself. I got a gpx.

Nah doesnt matter if a GPX or a GR. What matters is if its a tip or a manual. This is because the tip box comes a lot firther forward than the manual.

If you can mail say a paper template with fold lines on it i can produce an electronic drawing of it and then we can email a PDF file of it who ever wants one.

+1, good idea, makes it more easier to distribute.

Nup, that means the template ive got is for a manual. I need to make a different one for the tip as the tip box gets in the way with the current design.

Sweet, aluminium it is, also thinking of using styrofoam as an insulator similarly used in eskys. Maybe sandwiched in reflective foil?
