you are too kind! the best part is, anyone can do it. email me, and i will give you a list of hardware companies online that i used. the sky is the limit. dream it, and build it. get what you want. it is a great feeling! email me, and i will be glad to help you all i can with the details.
 
That stuff should be super tuff! Did you, by chance, determine how much the coating weighed? I've been curious about using that same finish.


It is actually a company called "Line-X" out of St. Louis, where I live near. It was about 1/8'' thick, and pretty much had no influece on the weight of the box. I had it professionally sprayed on for $100.00. For $50 more, I could have had it done in any color of the rainbow. I wanted a totally even consistancy, so I sprang for the pro job, but you can buy the stuff you roll on yourself at Wal-Mart.

Thanks for the compliments!
 
This is exactly what I love seeing! I'm with you 100% on DIY instead of buying a super high dollar cab.

Your build looks stellar by the way, I really dig the old school road case look. I thought about something too, since you were having rattling issues with the latches for the "cover" piece why not just have the catches on the cabinet and keep the latches on the lid? No vibration issues then. :)

Cheers,

Zach
thanks! i will take that into consideration!
