On yea, I didn't find a enclosure box I liked so I decided to make it in the wood shop. Work in progress. I have some 3/4" cedar that I will mill down to 5/8" and some 1/4" ply.
Uses six digital pins. Each button has one leg that goes to ground (tied together with a soldered header pin). The other leg goes to a digital pin.
Do consider though, $40 for a mini mote or $10 for this one. Splurge and get better parts for $15.
Here are some pics (sorry if orientation is wrong):
