Hi all,

I decided to build hard-case transport boxes to protect my new Jazzman Mk III speakers during the annual trek to Carverfest.  The hard cases can be carried in the back of my truck, even if it's raining. 


The cases are two-piece interlocking clamshells made from light-weight 3/16 plywood painted with truck liner coating.  The clamshells snap together with (6) draw latches and a foam rubber gasket between them seals out the rain.  The bottom clamshells have carrying handles on each end, for two person carry.

Interior surfaces which contact the speakers are Styrofoam covered with synthetic felt.

Very cool!
and a little extra downforce while driving

Yeah— cheap coffins when I kick the bucket, too

Imagine the looks you’ll get driving down the road with those in back.

I instantly thought of Grandpa Munster...

My wife always says she's going to bury me with "those speakers".

Ya gotta make the trip in a minivan with those strapped to the top.  Back to the Future, bay-bee!

Have a great time at Carverfest but do it safely.

One step up the scale would be INSIDE and Wired up.  I would bet the trip would be more fun

Actually, my Carverfest buddy, Ed Atkins rebuilds those ribbons.  As far as I know, he's the only guy around with a supply of the ribbon material, which he had specially made.
