This tilt-and-roll 2-tray xylophone case project comes from Paul in Champaign, IL. Felt-lined custom compartments with a beautiful natural varnished wood exterior. A work of art. Thanks for sharing Paul!

However, after looking over these case styles and configurations, and then following our tips seen in this video , you should be able to easily finalize your design and parts list!!!

So here's how it works with us... we stand behind our stuff. If it malfunctions during your build, we'll replace it. If your latch mechanism is defective upon installation, we'll send you a new one. If something happens to slip past our quality control and something is defective in some way when you receive it, we'll replace it. And the reason we can say this, is because we have kept track, and since we started business here at DIY Road Cases™ we have only had to send out a replacement part 6 times.

Our parts are top quality. We are exclusive partners with the world's leading parts manufacturer based in the UK. Our manufacturer makes parts for most of the road cases companies globally, and their unofficial warranty policy is the same as our policy.

Now, having said all of that... there are always exceptions, as there will always be someone that wants to play games. So... if you are calling us 8 times a year telling us that your latch or handle broke... we might become a little suspect. If we ask for a photo of your broken latch and the side of the case looks like a tractor trailer pinched it against a concrete wall... we might be a little suspect. Case part finishes will always vary a bit. The plating industry isn't an exact science, and different batches might look slightly different. Also, parts will eventually rust a bit from wear and tear on the finishes, etc., so it would be a rare instance that we would replace a part based on its finish. We will take replacements on a case-by-case basis (pun intended). But rest assured... we know all the tricks, and we know the quality of our materials... if it's legit, we'll replace it with no drama. We haven't left anyone dissatisfied yet.

This is why we provide all of the instructional media to help customers achieve their goals, even if they have never built anything in their lives! 

The first thing we recommend is to watch this video: What Parts Do I Need to Build My Case

Then check out our Case Styles Selector page

Next, for customers who are not experienced with case building, I highly suggest purchasing our Flagship Educational Suite. This instructional suite is instrumental in getting yourself to a completely prepared stage to begin your project and make it a success.

Also for those customers, or for those of you who do not feel they need to start from the beginning, but have other questions, we also offer a wide variety of additional video tutorials regarding specialized topics such as, case design preparation, wall thickness options, custom foam cutting, and many others, at our YouTube Channel, and here at our How-To Videos Section.

Once you have familiarized yourself with the information that you need, you can then go to our online store with your list of required parts & materials, get an idea of cost breakdowns, adjust your selections accordingly to meet your budget, and make your purchase so that you can get started on your case!

We are here to help you!

If you have any specific questions regarding your particular case project, email us any time at sales@diyroadcases.com. We'll get back to you quickly. 

Hope that helps!
