Source for back plate for DeArmond control box

[stevo58]

Does anybody have a source for the back cover for a DeArmond control box (vol/tone/switch)? I have a jerry-rigged bit, but something more reliable would be great. An actual cover, or a 3D print file.

Thx, saw that, he doesn’t sell the box separately, and it’s not in his thingiverse files. I suppose I could ask him.

I have a Panique monkey-on-a-stick (well really just the "stick" portion) and control box I'm not using. I bought it for use with a Rhythm Chief reissue, but ended up liking the pickup so much, that I mounted it permanently to the guitar. The back cover would routinely fall off the control box. I had to hold it on with tape or just go without it. It's plastic, so there's no real shielding advantage to having it on.

I contacted Vic at Panique and his back cover won’t fit well. Regarding shielding - copper foil.

In the meantime, a forum member has contacted me with a solution. Thanks for the responses.
