Making a cab come apart in two pieces?

(1/5) > >>

kelemvor:
Just wondering two things.

Has anyone made a cabinet where the top and bottom come apart for easier transport or whatnot?  There was a link in the PA book to one like this but the link is dead so I don't know what it was.

or

Has anyone taken an existing cab and somehow converted it so that it can be taken apart for easier transport and such.

If so, how di dyou do it and how well did it work?

Thanks.

The two piece UAII cab is in no way portable, weighs a ton and very difficult to separate.  You might look at the slim cabs by knievel or focus more on material than anything. 

Like the above post says, something similar to a bartop with a separate base would be better.

Why do you need it so portable anyways?

I don't NEED it portable.  Just thinking ahead since we'll be moving eventually and might want to go from downstairs to upstairs or things like that.

Suits, how did you connect it with bolts?  DO you have a picture or can you describe what you did?  Just a bracket of some sort that you bolt together inside or something like that?

I thought about some sort of latch on the inside where you can twist it to tighten it and then clamp it down or something.
