Case Shapes

Post by Aaron Garrett »

This is a dumb question which I'm sure has an obvious answer. The steel cases I've seen tend to be the depth and length of the steel and roughly double the width, with a side compartment for legs, etc. Does anyone sell a case shaped more like a toolbox, i.e. width and length of the steel, but twice the depth, with a compartment for legs, etc. on top? It would seem easier to carry and store this way.

I had a case like that but found it to be harder to carry. A case like this would bump your leg harder than a standard case.
