  Revere Ware or stainless steel pan lid, some are stiff enough to support the stompswitch hole.
  Use lockwashers, hope the control nuts don't come loose because they don't wedge properly to curved surface mounting holes.
  Get out the anvil, flat-head chisel, and ball peen hammer, just for flattening potholes in panlids.
Convention creates following, following creates convention.

Great tip on Dunlop selling these, that must be new I don't remember seeing this earlier in the year when I was obsessively searching. Price is a little high in my opinion.

My search is over, I picked up a non-functioning one on ebay for $35 and had a friend who works in a machine stop sandblast it.

Cookware is metal and round sometimes.
Thought it would be worth archiving this here. An ingenious frying pan enclosure!

That's genius! Can't imagine drilling through that was easy though

My go-to source for Fuzz Face-style enclosures is a mfgr of tank end caps, or tank heads.  They can be found in heavy gauge or light plate thicknesses, and in diameters from 4" up.  One will need to do a bit of work to be able to attach a bottom cover plate.
