saadasound Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 So I've made a slide on shelf for my pelican storm case for my bag to sit on, but i wanted to make another one that could be used on my standard cart top with my bag as well as have a pull out drawer for my CL9. For a first pass, I think it came out great! Used a knotted piece as my pull handle and found the drawer slides at Office Depot for free since the hardware was missing, so everything used was free and recycled! Still going to put a tung oil or ling seed oil to finish it. Let me know what you think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate C Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 The Knotted piece is a nice touch. Definitely show some pics once oiled. Have been intending to make up a top shelf for my Storm case cart. You have inspired me to go with reclaimed wood and give it some old world charm.

RPSharman Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 It's lovely! Heavy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saadasound Posted March 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Glad I can help stir up some new ideas! Its all all knotty pine, so extremely light. Haven't weighed it yet but can't be more then 5lbs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VASI Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 +1 for the wood approach. I like it a lot! Congrats, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saadasound Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Here's the shelf at about 95% completion. Added spring handles on the sides, small D-rings to strap down the bag to the top using some k-tek headphones straps. Finished it with a few coats of spanish oak stain and satin polyurethane. May add a bar on the back to clip a comtek transmitter, hops, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axel Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 this looks good, man! I like the wood approach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louw Verwoerd Posted April 3, 2016 Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Nice job Looks strong and helluva 'cumfortable', as opposed to an aluminium flight case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saadasound Posted April 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 Thanks! It's much lighter then going to flight case route, although you can imagine it doesn't fly well. Working on another one for a mixer friend of mine in Richmond Billy Britt, going to be making some upgrades and will post more photos soon.

petersont Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Very nice, very simple... + wood I can work with! This seems just the ticket for my own Stormcase im2500 & would love to see some pics of how your shelf sits / attaches onto the case. Tippy at all? Thanks - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
