Hello again,

I've been rearranging the studio now that I have a second SKB pop-up 
case (and they won't both fit on the desk), and I came up with a 
great way to "mount" the cases.

I have an Ultimate A-frame which I'm sure most of you are familiar 
with. It's a keyboard stand with "A" sides and metal tubes that run 
between the sides. Each tube can hold a number of arms on which your 
keyboards rest. Each arm has a little post at the end, perpendicular 
to the arm, so that the front edge of your keyboard won't slide off 
the stand.

The SKB cases have grooves in the PVC. The arms fit into these 
grooves quite well, and once the cases are fit correctly, the posts 
catch the edge firmly and they're very stable. I'll post a photo when 
I get some film (sorry Paul--I didn't stop and get any on the way 
home from work like I said I would). I have the cases sloped forward 
so that when I open them and pop up the frame, the modules are right 
in my face. It's really pretty cool. You'll see soon enough. And I 
was able to fit two on one tier (really the only way I could have 
done it), butted right up beside each other so there's not too much 
space to bridge with cables.

Maybe this will help those with limited space but an empty tier...

David.
