1x1 Tube Cases Got any?

[Chopdoc]

If you have a 1x1 tube case I would love to see it! Post pics!

They seem uncommon.

These are two 1x1 cases I have. I know I have more but I am still going through cases to see what I have. These just happen to be two I took to the pool hall to carry cues today in addition to my usual 3x6 case.

The pics explain what they are.

The Brunswick It's George case still has the key taped to the lid. Both cases smell like a new car inside.

Yes, both are vinyl, but very nice vinyl.

I don't know if that carry strap came with the Thomas case. It comes right off.

The only case made today that is similar that is not custom is the Katana case.
I got their 2x2 version and I like it and the slip on lid, looks like modern meets old school.
I strapped a small camera pouch it to hold chalk, glove and a tip tool if I want to go minimal.

Yup, the only modern equivalent I know of.

The angled cut of the lid messes with my OCD. LOL!

Damn nice!

I more or less meant the Fellini style slip on lid cases, but I can't argue with a snake skin Whitten!

I ran into this one this morning. I am always looking for Viking tube cases, especially CS-100 cases in leather and the CS-200 case in genuine python, but those are 1x2.

I have a Grey ostrich George 1x1. No lid, so I can let it go cheap. It's my locker case down at the pool hall.

My favorites are the brown leather tooled one by one and the snakeskin

Those are really nice cases. I think I still have one in the snake pattern. If I kept the one I think I did it's never been used. I'll have to dig it out and shoot some pictures. Those had really nice interiors .

Here is the viking 1x1 with ultra pad interior. Fits my Adam snooker cue

So can assume that was a 1x2 originally, and you replaced the thin cloth with a JB interior? There were two lengths of those cases made. One is actually longer made to hold snooker cues. Pretty hard to find them though. I may still have one.

I have always wondered about this. A standard snooker cue is 57 to 58 inches, same as a pool cue. But I frequently hear they are longer, and the cases are longer.

I have the adam version of this. in brown, Interior has pretty much gone. Had to make 1 butt 1 shaft sleeve to go inside. Very nice cases, that still work very well today. The shell of these, are built to last.

On the topic of Viking cases.

Most snooker cue have the joint at 3/4 of the length from the tip so they need a longer case.

So I went and dug up an extra long old viking case sold as a snooker cue case in the famous Patent leather snake skin. And the Brand new un used? Mint condition 1x2 snake with the super plush interior and the Viking logo on the cap. Anyway, I thought i had one or two of them and They are very cool!

Yes, for a 3/4 cue.
But I don't think the cases in question are that long. In addition, the 3/4 cues don't use tube cases. So...?

How long is it?

 

[jayman]

It is 33 inches outside length. The standard length was 32.
