The BoSL Probe enclosure was printed, and is fitting well.

The probe was filled with waterproof epoxy and left to cure. It takes about one tube to fill the cavity so it might be beneficial to optimise the shape of the probe so that less epoxy is used.

The sensor made yesterday died only after a few hours of in water testing. The epoxy used was PC Clear Clear Liquid Epoxy Multi-Purpose "waterproof" clear epoxy. It appears that it is not very waterproof however.
