this would be over-engineered, unless you have a lot of spare time or want to 
do this for fun. If you use plastic supports as they were used when these TO 
packages were common (these supports should still be available, they surround 
all pins and quality plastics were standard) and use any cap in addition on top 
of the case, thats enough blocking of airflow. you would put that into a closed 
box anyhow, with no air flow through fans or so.
