It’s Awkward!

By Danial

It is a great case for protecting large gear. But it is absolutely the most awkward case I’ve ever had the privilege of hauling. Had to haul a cpu through the airport. It was so cumbersome by the time I got it home I decided to ship it to the next destination and let the carriers worry about it. Otherwise it’s a solid case and does it’s job. Just don’t plan on getting around with it easily.

A Pelican Built like a tank

Like all Pelican cases this one is also solidly built. The pick and pluck foam tears off a little too easily for my taste. My biggest problem with this monster case and the reason I dropped a star is the lack of a handle on the front. It only has two large handles top and bottom... but what about the side?? That would have been super helpful especially for such a massive case.

See any errors on this page?

question

Just looking for clarification about the foam set. Is it pick'n pluck or is it solid foam layers?

question

What are the dimensions of the case slot in the foam? Don't want to buy it and my case not fit in it.
Asked by: Jonathan S.
The foam we received was scored in 1 x1 cubes that could be easily detached to form a snug fit for our contents.
