I chose to leave the angle pieces at the rear of the tray bolted rather than welded to accommodate different length (height) batteries. It works well and holds the battery very securely.
Great work! If you're willing to weld me up a box, let me know! I can't justify paying $130+ for a Rennline one, even though they look nice.

Back to cheap, small battery:

Costco lawn tractor battery, costs <~$40, has decent warranty.
