actually talked to Billy on Friday. He gave me the number of the guy who used to make them for him. Planning to call him on Monday to ask if he will make some more or if he will send me the cad design or just the measurements. Will post on this thread what I find out.

hmmm I thought Billy built it...
Yes please ask...or at best i wonder what it is made of?
I hate the carry on, and actually have never used it (it works fine) as where to stow it? and I also still haven't figured out exactly how to mount it...the "hood" is giving me fits to figure out so I just put the whole unit up in the attic of the addition next door

Re: Anybody near Raleigh want to build me a billy box?
For the record, I built the prototype. Because of the initial demand, I had a friend who runs a high end cabinet shop help me reconfigure it to cad program so we could produce the parts quicker and more accurately. The unit is made of PVC board and ss screws.
I could probably have another run made, but this was not a real money maker for those involved. Just wanted to help some fellow Mac owners.
There are several units near you if you want to attempt to build one youself. If fact I'm only about 30 miles from Raleigh myself.
I'm willing to share any info that may help you. PM or call me 919 eight 9 four 0088.
