I think you may have a problem in that while there is a set of specifications which must be met (CubeSat Developer Documentshttp://cubesat.atl.calpoly.edu/pages/documents/developers.php), developers are free to design their structures in any way which meets these. This leads to a large variety of designs (stackable boards, motherboard/daughterboard, or any combination of internal assembly), and therefore fitting your transponder into one of these designs would in no case guarantee it would fit in any other.
Perhaps you should consider contacting Andrew Kalman with Pumpkin, inc.http://www.cubesatkit.com/about getting your design incorporated into the CubeSat Kit. To date, there are only three cubesats in space which use the structure, but it's probably the closest to a "standardized" design.

Hi AMSATs,
I am looking for some Cubesat structure that I can use for demonstration of my Ultra Small Lineat Transponder design. It should not be an expensive flight-model version. Its only for showing the idea how my transponder can be mount into a cubesat body.
I can try to make some structure myself, but that takes lots of work and I need to get the precize sizes somehow. Maybe someone has ever made a Cubesat demo version ?
My kind regards,
