brain-box

This refers to a person's head, usually in a crude or uncomplimentary way. A berk's noggin or (rarely) a desktop computer's tower.

"Go soak your brain-box" is a suggestion to go drown yourself in a bucket. "He banged his brain-box on it" means a berk finally figured something obvious out.

Be careful, berk, that basher did not shed the total dark on the issue...
