@Bobco729, Midstroke, and CocoboloCowboy:
Thank you friends! I feel very honored to have a case made
by Mr. John Barton, who in my book, is the Picasso of custom cue cases.
An anecdote of sort:
When I was starting out in pool, I remember the very first time 
i laid my eyes upon an Instroke cue case. Truth be told, i instantly 
fell in love with it!
I saved every bit i could for how long i do not remember!
But it was worth the effort! And the wait! And guess what? 
I still have it! And I kid you not! 
I have sold some of the cases i have acquired over the years, 
but not my precious - my 2x4 black Instroke Cowboy cue case,
a cue case made by the company founded by none other than 
Mr. John Barton!

P.S.
To John and Karen:
Thank you again for making my dream a reality! 
I am one happy pool player!
