Subject: Re: [motm] Road cases

well, i was joking, but in many ways i would think, or hope, that
there is a space in the market for an improved case based on the SKB
design.

the build quality on the SKB case is ∗crap∗. the hinges last about
maybe 5 cycles if you're really careful, and the mechanism for
holding the rack in the popped-up position is dodgy to say the least.
the whole thing is cheap and nasty.

finally the thing is too big for how many U it holds.
