Come on, together everybody! What do we want? END CAPS!!!!! When do we want
them? NOW!!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

Yeah, the metal part isn't too tough but I'm not sure how to get the finish
right and I don't really have a good place to do painting anyway. I've
considered having Front Panel Express make some but it wouldn't be the same
finish (probably look OK though). I've also considered making some out of
Black Walnut or Cherry and staining them so I can have at least a touch of
beautiful wood in my industrial looking road cases but . . . I'm not sure on
that either . . . (I might talk to the folks at Synthwood.com to get them
made . . .)
