I already built 4 different cases for my system because what they sell out there are not exactly what we need. My point is, I struggled a lot even on my last one after seen your video I found out easier ways for each application ... thanks for sharing your work!!👍👍

[@jaredrush6750]

Your way of marking the handles with tape is brilliant. I've always had issues getting the hole marked just right under the latch, your way is such a great idea. Thanks!

[@HTDav01]

A few things to note here. First and foremost, great work with this. It is an old school, single purpose design. If it gets busted, you build another... ...simple. For those who've criticized that, this case was designed to take the brunt of any fall, but only once or twice, as instruments and gear were not meant to be bounced around. If you want to build a similar project but with a more multi-use, bumping around purpose: 1. Instead of stapling ends first, use clamps to hold things together (bar clamps and standard trigger clamps work well, you'll need several to hold the box in shape), then start with one end, and move down the edge to the other end, stretching the sections into one another, excess can be shaved off with a sandeblock. 2. My dad and I both do this with anything we nail or staple--first we put wood glue on the edge, then we staple it, then remove the excess wood glue with a slightly dampened cloth or paper towel (not dripping, don't leave much moisture behind 3. One other "old school" method of creating these "boxes" is to cut square teeth on the ends of the boards, just over the width of the joining board, then use a cloth-hammer to "join" them, along with a staple and wood glue. Then you sand the excess off afterward. When stapling, you alternate around the angle, first on this side then on the other several teeth down. This leaves room for rivets\screws for edging, and if you stretch it down the line, rather than squeezing from the ends, any pressure on the box will "Relieve" the stretch, allowing it to absorb the impact more effectively. With teeth on both angles and stapling around the angle, you also have the added protection from an angular force, spreading the motion around the entire box instead of down just one side, which prevents the motion from transferring to your equipment. 4. To join the sides even more, and make the corners super solid, you can use corner steel pieces, inside and out, the outside being about the same thickness as your edging. Rounded corners are great because they allow you to stack the boxes and move around stacks without cutting yourself. This also lets you cut straight edging for several edges, and you can weld them together later to enable them to transfer force and move together. Some of that takes a lot more time, but if you are looking for a more permanent, and more beatable box, that'll do. Your time is worth something, so if you really want a durable box, you could always... ...eh.... ...purchase one, maybe? Once again, great job here. Just wanted to point out that it was great for the target purpose; workmanship and all. There's a logic to it all, and a kind of math that may not have perfect numbers, but it's still a sound bit of practice.

[@TheMusemush]

Thank you so much for your comment, I appreciated it very much, I am grateful to you because thanks to your opinions I have a great chance to improve in what I build. You said the right things and that make me think. As I said several times, before building I studied for almost two years gathering any information or advice from experts in the sector. For example, the professionals have advised me against the glue: the tightness of the FC (and its absorption of energy during its use) seems to be due to all the rest of the work, if it is done in a workmanlike manner, the glued parts they would make the FC less flexible causing a lower energy absorption (so they say), it must also be said that they are not designed to be waterproof or in general "eternal". I know that today there are better and lighter materials than multilayer, there are certainly much better techniques than mine, but I am only a beginner and what you see are my first works! Old school... I didn't care and I would never want to buy them new because I have the pleasure of making them with my own hands! (my channel is dedicated to DIY in general, wood, metal, etc). Building something with your own hands is the best thing there is :-) Thank you so much for your comment, I will take note of your info.

[@HTDav01]

@@TheMusemush i like old school. Meant as a compliment. Old school craftsmanship here, built to last a while but be replaced readily (not perfectly instant, but easy enough) in case it meats an untimely incident (forget knocking, ill beat the pulp outta wood!). Loved your work here. Got ideas. You inspired. On your first shot. Good work.

[@guidon.5413]

On the upside, this way of building is great for hobby or light duty use. It's lighter weight and A LOT cheaper than using available extrusions everywhere and not having to back every rivet with a washer saves time, making the case cheaper as well. But using for example edge extrusions, as well as putting washers behind every rivet that anchors into wood, would make this case many times more solid. The construction shown in the video wouldn't have survived even a month in the light and sound equipment rental company I owned in the '90s - ask me how I know ... :-( We had a lot of cases fail that came with equipment and were built similar to the one here. There are a few things that would improve stability without adding too much cost or weight, but unfortunately would still add significant time, so depending on usecase may or may not be worth it.

[@JPmixet]

I have repaired many of that style case, they are good until one takes a good hit or falls from a the truck. They mainly fail because the pop rivits pull through the wood (may not happen on first fall, but it loosens the rivit) my advise would be use a washer inside the box to sandwich the alum angle and the laminated wood together. Or use a Double Angle ALum Excursion, but they is more money have a slight design change. Good Luck!!!

[@jasonwooler801]

good tip. I was just thinking 'Is he just riviting direct into the wood?' Thats going to come loose

[@ranasaab6560]

Thank you so much for highlighting the hits according to your experience, I have a question Should we use washer on both side of revits or just inside the box? And what would be the thickness of plywood they've used in the video? And what type of double angle aluminum strip? They used L shape and what does the double angle looks like?

[@nigellewis8461]

i use to make cases . it is advisable to put small washers behind the rivits , in time fittings work loose

The key word is "passion", I always liked what I chose to do. Making FC is a job that requires good manual skills, tools, precision and passion, it must please: I had fun and I have a lot of fun building them! I hope these videos serve to make it clear that it is not an easy job, but neither impossible nor too difficult. Thanks for commenting. Regards

[@gdnrecords]

Amazing !! this is so inspiring, honestly I am your fan not just because of this case you made, also for this super clean system that you work, my respect for you man. Do you mind saying how much do you spend in the supplies you use building this beautiful case.

[@TheMusemush]

Hi GDN Records! I don't know exactly how much I spent, I bought the components in an online store, I know there are so many scattered all over the world, I looked for the closest one. Making it do it yourself you save a lot but there are very high chances of making mistakes and having to throw everything away if you don't have a bit of experience and tools. For more than a year I have studied from web sources and industry experts, it is an art to build cases! thanks a lot!

[@robertchytil1]

May I ask you what is the black kind of material on the surface? In one moment we can see a wooden ( plywood?) And next moment is black texturized material.

Thank you for the inspirational education. I would love to see you build a flight case for a cello... given the varying depth of the instrument.

[@Minimoog7]

You have all the right tools, all the right materials/components, all the knowledge... and double speed camera with no explanations. It's impossible for average guys like us to make a case like this. Nice video, but useless for us.

[@TheMusemush]

Hi Minimoog7. Power tools simply allow you to speed up a job that you would do in much more time with hand tools. I don't agree that these videos are useless. Today compared to the nineties (when I started to need these FCs) we have the great opportunity to learn from the web and watching others, naturally on condition of wanting to learn, films like that for me and thousands of other people have been fundamental for begin to understand how something is made, the rest must also be studied. Before building I studied for years from all the YT films that I found, then I asked the professionals of the sector for advice: I was afraid of making a mistake (and I did well to wait). Unfortunately today we are used to pretending everything and immediately, all the solutions of crossword puzzles and puzzles, for this reason we often don't appreciate. Last thing, double speed camera is a technique that allows you to show lots of details that a normal speed movie wouldn't show. Thanks for commenting. Greetings.

[@enriquezapata4139]

WOW i am impressed . I have some of the tools but i am missing the rivets tool and the saw table which is a major component to make sure the cuts are even. i might invest on purchasing those . I need multiple cases for my keyboards for p.a. speakers and more instruments i have. i think the investment will payoff by building my own cases. and who knows i might sale some to local bands . because we do not have any company in the area.

[@algonzalez6805]

Hello- Txs for sharing. Did you texturized the panels first or glue an ABS acrylic sheet to them? For the box structural rigidity did you only use brad nails? No screws?

[@TheMusemush]

The supplier sends me the panels already coated on one side. These types of FCs are made only with rivets, in the end the result is solid but also absorbs shocks, which would not happen if you glue and put screws, which means that it would be more at risk of breaking if it is subjected to heavy stresses such as falls accidental.

Complimenti per la realizzazione, flight case fatto molto bene e anche esteticamente ben rifinito. Vorrei chiederti qualche info in più su quello che hai usato: Il pannello di multistrato da quanto è? 15mm? Che vernice hai usato per pitturare la faccia esterna di nero? Che profili in alluminio hai usato per la parte di unione tra i due pezzi. Ho guardato sul sito suggerito in descrizione ma non ho ben capito quale hai usato. Sarebbe utile magari se aggiungessi anche le misure del flight case e anche quelle di cerniere e maniglie usate. Grazie mille. 🤟🏻😉

[@TheMusemush]

Buonasera! Multistrato di betulla già rivestito da un lato, spessore 7mm, oltre diventa troppo pesante ed ingestibile e questo spessore si è rivelato più che sufficiente per ciò che dovevo fare io. I FC non hanno degli standard, se vuoi realizzarne uno è un pò come quando vai al supermercato: in base al piatto che devi fare sceglierai i tuoi ingredienti, per quello non ha senso riprodurre le stesse misure, perchè l'ho progettato (insieme alla suddivisione degli spazi) in base a quello che dovevo contenere. Il sito in descrizione ha anche un recapito telefonico, contattali sono molto disponibili e ti guideranno per capire quale hardware acquistare. Grazie mille e buona realizzazione!

[@EnricoCalo]

Hello Friend, I designed this FC to transport without destroying the necessary equipment for my concerts. I don't always put the same things inside but generally they are high quality audio cables, microphones, electrical part and spare mixer. Transport by car decreases the life of whatever equipment you need, and this is why these special containers are made. Thanks so much

[@vibram500]

Great video ! Regarding the aluminium profile you use for the opening part, it's a male/female one ? There is no issue of friction on the hinge side ?

There are aluminum parts that are mounted between the lid and the trunk, "Hybrid Lid location". If they are mounted in a workmanlike manner, they absolutely do not interfere with the work of the hinges. Greetings.

Then if you don't like them I understand, they can't please all my modest cases ... :-)

For all the FCs you see in this channel I used 7mm birch plywood, coated on one side with specific pvc. I also used the same plywood for the FC of the 34kg fender amp, so I guess you can use it for a 15kg object .... The choice of thickness also depends on the project. Greetings

Wouldnt be better to make the whole case of alluminum instead of reinforcing a wood case? It would be lighter and more flexibly, bend but dont crack. These cages seem to be fragile like glass fiber boats, they can't bend, if a rock hit the boat, it will make a hole. Aluminum can bend and resist heavy hits.

Hi Sean. Flight cases are an art that I didn't invent ... They are used to contain and protect different types of equipment, even of great value.

Question - what size rivets do you use if you are putting latches on 1/4" laminated plywood?

[@DrMackSplackem]

3/16" diameter. The box of rivets will also have a 'grip' spec. which denotes a nominal length after installation (in my experience this variable takes account for a backing washer as well). So, a 1/4" grip rivet will work for attaching extrusions to 1/4"-thick panels, but you'll usually also need other rivets with a longer grip for attaching hardware spanning the extrusions (latches in particular).
