[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 146811, member: 162"] Re: Looking for a case company Jason I don't have a particular case vendor to recommend as my local shop has pretty much gotten out of the case business, but I have several cases made out of the Penn Elcom FlightPanel honeycomb plastic, and within its limits, it's pretty neat stuff. I haven't tested its puncture resistance and you can't put handles in the middle of a panel without significant risk of tearing out, but for small to medium sized cases where you're not going to try to lift 500lbs from the handles, it's fine, and the weight savings can be fairly significant. I have a large keyboard case, small format mixer case, and a lift-off-style speaker case and all have handled what I've thrown at them. In your rack application, you would likely be fine as long as the handles are near the aluminum extrusions. [/QUOTE]
