Yup.p if you cover it in clothe too much it tends to bulid up heat. One idea I
had was to get some of thet self adhesive velrco at the hardware store. then you
can stick a strip of it acros the back and then make one strap that gose all the
way around and use it to fasten. that leaves moset of it exposed te air. the
holes will help also. your model has 1/2 inch of space under the circuit board
not includnig the resistor so if you drilled the holes along th ebottom edge you
sholud be fine. If you screw it up Ill make you another one with the holes
already in place.






Take care,
