Traveling Display Project

by patpruitt on December 4, 2008

Well, Im starting to do some serious traveling with the up and coming ACC shows Ill be doing.  Before the shows Ive done have been within driving distance, but now having to take everything on the plane is proving to be quite the challange.

That being said, the project is going to commence with a checkable, indestructable case by Pelican.  The 1700 case is primarily designed for transporting firearms, but this will work extreemly well for my purposes.  The backdrop and case will be designed with structural aluminium extrusion from Tslots.  This is a super lightweight, erector set style of construction.  Having the ability to machine the parts here makes it affordable and expandable

The goal is to build a 10′x10′ back drop with integral display case that is collapsable, lightweight, and can be setup in a couple of hours.  Must be under 50lbs (including case) and pretty indestructable.  Im guessing the total cost for this will be under $1000.  Details will be featured in the DIY section as the progression begins.
