Wood panel weight

I was wondering if the wood panels are significantly lighter than the metal ones.
I would love to lose some weight on the machine as I’m gonna need to travel with it.
thanks

They are lighter but won’t make that much of a difference considering the unit is a tank and the case is solid too.

thanks, a few grams less is always nice :grinning: but I didn’t realize they are out of stock

Also keep in mind that the wood sides dont easily fit in the case, its a bit of a situation where you need to cram it in there…

I don’t have the isla case, I use a stormcase i2600, it’s got a bit of extra room on the sides.

They do now - we had the inside measurements altered on the last batch of cases that went out and all future cases will be the same.

I need to see if I can also “unbend” the case; it was bent a bit during OG shipping. I had noticed the back turntable grounding screw was bent when I received it, but I never realized that the case itself was as it was always sitting on soft material; in the past month I have used it on different non-soft support, and one of the feet is higher like 2mm. It might be an easy fix and if those wooden sides can take out a bit of weight that might be an excellent opportunity to do it.
