Thw Whitten or the Justis are excellent choices. They are way better than ANYTHING you can buy thats made over seas.

"way" better is a matter of simple comparison. 
) As I said before Instroke cases have the best interior of any type or brand of cue case currently on the market. I will not get into a debate on this board about this. I simply invite anyone to stop by my shop at 8952 Market St., in Dover Arkansas, and compare the Instroke interior against ANY other brand out there.
Now, does this mean that the Justis or Whitten is "bad"? These brands are used since they are the subject of this thread. No. It means that I, the builder of the Instroke cases, have looked at what I considered to be the best cases and have created something that I feel is better and in fact which has been shown to be better. Is the Instroke case NICER than a Whitten or a Justis. No. That is a choice that belongs to the customer. As a customer I happen to appreciate all three as well as Jim Knott's cases, Ron Thomas's cases, Joe Porper's cases, Waldemar Eisele's cases and a bunch of other lesser known casemakers across America and the world.
Finally, to answer those that want to play the "overseas" card. It does not matter one bit 'where' a product is made as much as 'how' it is made in terms of it's quality. Again, I challenge anyone to do a public comparison with defined quality points and then we would see if "anything" made in America is better than "everything" made "overseas". Discerning customers know that this is not true.
And as the esteemed Forest Gump says, that's all I have to say about that.

That project has been pushed back indefinitely. I have suggested to other customers that they purchase the Predator case and either color the logo black or cover it with something.

I am old school..........still waiting for It's George to come back in style! But like Benny said......I'd go with the Instroke.....or even a leather giuseppe.....( going on zims spelling ) lol! hope he is right!
I have seen a 3x6 "JACK JUSTIS" and on one of the photos, The tubes were visible, I was quite surprised that I did not see any mold that holds all the tubes, it was pretty much 9 tubes and the thick leather covering. Can anyone confirm this if this is the way Justis cases are made..
thanks
