Don,  
That looks like something we could produce with more of a custom look.  
Does it need to have the carrying case for $99 or do you think there is enough a market that DJs would pay for a better looking product without a carrying case?  
Maybe the carrying case is important.:shrug:

I think carrying case is a plus but not necessary. I know for myself carrying everything in 4 packages is a plus, but if it had to be sacrificed to beat them at it, I’m sure it would work out alright. Everyone probably uses a laptop case anyways, so as long as it folds up I don’t see a problem. Have any brilliant ideas?

Requirements would have to be simple:

- As adaptable as possible to height/angles and laptop sizes
- Folds up, small/easy to carry
- Would have to beat the brand name one on price and hopefully features

^ One idea I had was to design it so when it is disassembled the fasteners could be used to tie it together in a cute little bundle.:gotme:  
You know, like Transformers - More than meets the eye.:biglaugh:

Red or blue anodize would make it look sweeeeeet.

those are basically what i am talking about…just change hub bore and bolt pattern accordingly

Sorry I haven’t gotten back to all of you yet.  
I have bean quite busy lately.

I would definately like to explore a lot of the good ideas I have seen.  
Getting hit with them all at once is exciting but challanging.

That’s a solid idea.

I’ma gauge interest - let me know if you have any solid ideas or questions, and what the next step is for you. I would at least want one 🙂

Do you know how wide that rack needs to be?  
The picture has all of the other dimensions but not the width.  
I would need to make several to make it worth while.  
Maybe we can work something out.

If I had that capacity I would already be turning wheels.😃  
Mori Seiki actually makes a lathe just for turning wheels!!!  
I think it is more than $200,000.00!!!  
That would be much fun.

The machining looks pretty straight forward I would just need dimensions.
