For those with 3D printing capabilities (not me) I think a great idea for a product would be a say a 10mm gasket that fits between the enclosure and the lid to effectively deepen it to enable socketing of transistors/larger caps etc.
Thoughts?
Make it a light plate and it can do double duty.
"They" do make a 1590T enclosure.

They don't look like a tall 1590a though :o

SBE also sells a 1590a 'tall':

Yeah. The Smallbear 1590A-tall is excellent. It's about .25" taller.

That takes all the (evil, masochistic, only-a-crazy-person would take this on) fun out of it ;D

Are you trying to tell us something about yourself Dan?

You guys know my affinity for 1590A builds, you already know I have a few screws loose ;)
If you don't go with a larger box, I think the best route would be to breadboard the circuit before committing to component choices. 1590a builds are—usually—rather straightforward and should be pretty quick to put together on a breadboard. Unless you plan on routinely swapping out components, of course.

It's 2020 man, I was just wondering if you have any screws left? ;D ;)
Here is an .stl file for anyone that wants a spacer for 1590A

You're telling me they missed calling their taller 1590a the "Tall Bear" enclosure? It was right there!

Well time to switch projects to even smaller enclosures I guess.

Thanks for that. Tall 1590a's are impossible find here is Australia. Might try printing this.
