Only if a guy had money. I'm guessing that box runs $200-300. Am I right? Very nice though. | |||

Posts: 83 | Musky Madman - 11/16/2009 11:25 AM Only if a guy had money. I'm guessing that box runs $200-300. Am I right? Very nice though. I'm guessing closer to $300 per box - assume the picture has 3 boxes. So total would be $8-900. That is a SICK .. not to mention all the big bucktails and dawgs stored in them. Pretty long lids to be opening from with hinges on the short ends. I would think hinges on the long ends would make access easier ... but then again, if I had that setup (boat/boxes/baits) - no way i would be complaining | ||

Posts: 148 Location: Excelsior, MN | nclaker - You are in the neighborhood regarding the pricing. Actual price is determined by the box and lid dimensions, # of flush mounted latches, length of non-slip top, beam supports, drawers, divider set-up, etc. Jason wanted each lid hinged across the back - that is what he got. HD stainless steel piano hinges are used on these boxes and riveted every 2" so the lid will not go anywhere even when attached on the short end. The inside of the deck boxes have permanent lateral and front to back notched beams (allowing for baits to hang from them) from 1/4" polycarbonate (same as the exterior) positioned under the lid sides/edges to insure support at the intersection of the lids. Outside and beams have over 50 - 3/4" stainless steel screws center drilled and recessed into the 1/4" polycarbonate in addition to triple gluing. Recently took an extra Ranger 619/620 casting deck to a local North Metro Muskies Inc. meeting - a (big) guy weighing 380 lbs. stood on top ----no issue whatsoever. Hope to have some additional photos of other recent custom builds up soon. Would welcome any additional comments or questions. Bob Schmitt - Just Encase | ||

Posts: 148 Location: Excelsior, MN | Have a new concept that was developed jointly with bturg. Protoype in-process to address this similar to Tool Box accessory but with a flexible hinged lid to eliminate lures becoming missiles when you're moving if you know what I mean. Thanks!
