So I just purchased a fair amount of new rigging equipment for our musical, Spamalot, that we closed a couple weeks ago. I now had time to look at everything we have and gather it all together. I've gone from being worried to neurotic about students loosing or misplacing this fairly expensive stuff. Seeing as how my shop is underneath my auditorium, and my smaller theatre is a trek to another part of the building I feel justified in spending some money, time, and labor in building a Road Case to store everything in. Plus it's a cool thing for my students to work on and this way its all in one place so I can lock it up when its not being used between shows.
I was wondering if anyone else has made something similar and could provide photos or a description of what you did.
I'm planning on spending some money on proper durable road case hardware. Some of the things i want to store in it are Shackles, cable spools, 50 pounds of trim chain, various hanging hardware, Swagging tool, copper sleeves, thimbles, and turnbuckles.
I'm open to hearing about any professional solutions but unless there is a major advantage I am unaware of, I'd prefer to build it in house.
