Custom Cue Cases...

[Zims Rack]

Anyone on here own or have made a custom cue case for traveling or dealers? Something that holds atleast 12 cues, preferebly 24+!

I have a few ideas on how to build this case and what materials to use for tubes and lining. What are some materials that are being used currently?

Would like to see some pics!

Thanks,
Zim

I have made them for 16 butts and 32 shafts. No pics right now but they were pretty sporty at the time.

I have designed a better version of it - just haven't gotten around to building it.

I can tell you that a 24 cue tube case better have wheels and a STRONG back to heft it into the car. I have refused several orders just because of the weight and bulk issue. The 16 cue case referenced above was a butterfly/book style meaning that it opened like a butterfly and the cues were kept on boards that you could flip through like a book. The boards also came out to allow the cues to be displayed in a variety of ways.

Here's a couple of dealer cases. http://jjcue.com/case-display.htm I know a couple of people who have the 20x20, and it's not a bad case for the money. Not exactly custom, but maybe will give you some ideas.
