There was a time where I can say I didn't like any cases out. So I went the scratch build route. This is just the first iteration.
"Case:" Two leftover pieces of wood from a basement shelf project. It started as a rough napkin sketch with approximate measurements, and ended up being a little larger than I imagined. I also planned on having a handle on top. But after adding the acrylic finish panel last minute during assembly, and then feeling how heavy this actually was, that idea had to be shelved.
