Guitar Case Podium Project

A few years back I had the idea that I'd like a guitar case that when opened deployed into a podium. As a keynote speaker that uses music I always have a guitar case with me and having it perform double duty just made sense! Well Dennis Dill, a pretty cool teacher from RW Blake Academy in Florida hit me up on Instagram and we struck up a conversation. He told me that he knew a great teacher, Ms. Halman’s  who has a 4th period Fabrication Lab class that just might be up to the challenge of designing and delivering my guitar case podium...the rest will be history!
