Aerolyte Mobile Alu Case - Perfect Tool/Booze storage case on H/Duty PU Wheels!
In my ongoing desire to be brutal with clearing stuff I won't really use or get around to, I have a fantastic insulated aluminium commercial freight case made by Aerolyte in Australia. These are generally used to pack delicate or sensitive stuff in for travelling, used a lot by roadies, IT companies for server and storage gear, etc. They're also really great for long term storage of things that might be damaged by external environment or moisture. Until now I've used it for storing some fairly sensitive electronics that I've now moved on.
I bought this with the intention to make a coffee table with, but realistically that ain't likely to happen now so I'm selling it. I'm after $100, which is less than a quarter of what I paid at the time, these cases were around $2000-$2500 new. The heavy duty wheels alone are worth that much.
It's in sensational nick, all the hardware is good and works fine, the hinges are strong, and this thing is made to take a massive amount of weight, with a plywood frame covered in aluminium sheet and re-enforced along all edges and underneath, with really thick solid metal corner bump protectors.
Overall it measures 740 wide x 600 deep x 520 high from the ground to the top. The heavy duty foam lining is in great nick apart from some very minor damage as seen in the pics, and the cavity measures 605 wide x 485 deep x 215 high, but you could easily pull the foam out if you wanted to make full use of the space.
With the heavy duty PU wheels, just whack a timber panel on top and it would make a brilliant coffee table that is easily moved around and has loads of storage inside. Would also be absolutely perfect for a cafe!
Pickup from Abbottsford or near Mulgrave.

You'll be happy with this Tim, it's an absolute beauty. If you're up for a bit of joinery I can give you a couple of Vic Ash slabs to make a solid timber top out of gratis?
