What would I mount a homemade power supply onto?

 

We can't read your mind. How big is it? How much power?

 

I buy metal boxes at Radio Shack to fit most of my power supplies. www.mouser.com has metal boxes, too.

 

How about a plastic bag and hang it on the wall.

i used to have PC with all most of guts (motherboard, graphic card etc) hanging from a single nail on the wall. what can i say - it was a real magnet. everyone had to look closer and ask for explanation...

you do strike me as the sort of person to do that as long as u didnt put the nail through the motherboard nor put your rotting lunch in the bag ha

and back onto the topic.. id use a plastic box.. no conductivity, cheaper.. and more modifiable if you need say.. a wire coming out.. or an led to show its on? or switches.. and an lcd.. and a ... a.. anyway you get my point..

 

-Your kitchen table
-A backpack
-A skateboard
-A piece of plywood
-A kite
-A cats back so you can have a "portable" power supply

By the way. Shouldn't this be in off topic

 

I think it's a fair topic for a circuits project forum, but I fear the OP has long gone.

Me, I like the venerable Altoids tin for any project that will fit in one. I like the quick-open lid, and the walls are just big enough to mount adapters, LEDs, switches, whatever.
