The L-24 Case
The hardware required to convert the C-24 to an L-24 is pictured here.
The process isn't difficult, but it is a little time consuming. First, remove the button screws around the outside of the case; then attach the lugs. Making sure they are vertical can be done by simply eyeballing things with a tension rod installed.
This isn't the most precise process, but we aren't actually building a musical instrument so we can sacrifice some of the accuracy we would otherwise want to maintain in putting this together. It's more about the way it looks in the end.
Going around one side and then the other, we attached all the lugs, set the drumheads on, and tightened down the rims. It actually really does look like a 24" kick drum. If you wanted to, just like with the C-24, you could have holes cut in the drumheads and mount fans in the sides of the case as well. Also, is it just me or is it a little odd to call the parts of this thing with the drumheads the sides?

That has got to be the biggest and ugliest case I've ever seem. No offense to the maker. Sorry, it's just plain ugly and lo0ks like it takes up way to much room. And with a price tag like that you could get any case you want and still have money left over.Googer - Wednesday, August 27, 2008 - link
Almost, If I remember correctly it was thermaltake who made a case that cost over $1,000.comc49 - Wednesday, August 27, 2008 - link
FAIL(the case not the review)JonnyDough - Wednesday, August 27, 2008 - link
Agreed. Because of the round shape it takes up way too much space. I'd rather have it small as I can get it while still being able to work on it easily. Squared edges fit a square mobo much better. Now if they made round mobos...JonnyDough - Wednesday, August 27, 2008 - link
I wanted to add that I think the diamond plating gives it a nice edge. I LOVE diamond plating. I'm going to build a house out of it someday.xsilver - Thursday, August 28, 2008 - link
I say shambles to your diamondium and put forth my superior material of diamonillium! :P
