[DeTomaso] Pantera - metal shelving shelves info

[larry at ohiotimecorp.com]

Hi Bill,

All good ideas from the guys. What ever you do make sure the legs do not set on concrete 
as it will wick up moisture. I cut up 4"X4" pressure treated plywood to place under all my 
legs.

His drum cases where made of heavy pressed cardboard with riveted rounded metal corners. 
He would paint them with Shellac. It made them water proof. (not sure about gas and 
oil?) I still have them! Over 50 years old.
