I haven't paid for anything, my cabinet was designed from scratch. I'm still finishing off my design but once complete it will consist of three sections; top (containing the monitor), lower (containing the pc) and the third is the control panel (already built). Each of these three sections will be connected by large wingnuts/bolts. This will allow me to split it up when I need to move it.
OSCAR:
I made a true two-piece cabinet which will disassemble. In fact the top piece could literally sit on a countertop and be played without the bottom piece, but I would have to relocate all the "guts" (power supplies, motherboard, hard drive, amp, etc.) to the top unit under the monitor shelf. I didn't really set my cab up to be played while separated, but it could have been done that way. I have the top and bottom peices connected with angle brackets and t-nuts w/ screws.
I added some new pics and the PDF plans of my cabinet to www.oscarcontrols.com/unnamed. When I get the AutoCAD drawings cleaned up a bit, I will add those, too.

Oscar - Interesting implementation. I'm not so sure the extra large top is my style though. I kind of like Lusid's thinness. I've got a copy of your plans though, and it's given me enough ideas that I think I can pull off the look I want after GSXRMovistar and I discuss it a little. Thanks a lot for the plans and post.

You're welcome, I hope you find the plans somewhat useful! :)
My cabinet is a bit deceiving, though. It's not as large as you may think. Here's what it looks like with the Lusid cab outline overlayed on it:

Isn't frosty's cab a two piecer (AND rotable CP!) ???
I'll have to check the project announcemtn forum for linkage... i'm pretty sure that was one of his requirements when he built it.... (but i could be confuse)
