Awesome work JB!
Danger
Kinda stupid question… Would it be possible to make a tube case with removable inserts in it (similar to the pic above)? The reason I'm asking is that one could replace the inserts once the inserts are worn down. I'm pretty sure the leather shell could last decades if properly maintained however I'm not sure synthetic inserts would fare very well after 10+ years of usage.
Cheers

This one is removable, washable, changeable. We pretty much do this on all the custom tube cases we do now and only do a fixed interior on request.
Ironically though, the Butterfly case you are looking at does not have the typical removeable interior but instead has a fixed one on one of the sides by request of the customer. We do it your way.
Also we do do other removeable interiors for tube cases. Here is one we did for a cuemaker. He carries his cues in five cue bags to give him space for 5x10 in a 4x8 sized tube.

Street Rod - 2011 Case but reworked for Will in 2012

John,
This "reworked" case came to me as a stunner, an unbelievable piece of restoration. Better than new, and one of my favorite cases. I REALLY appreciate the magnificent work you did on this.
As the second owner, to say I was a delighted, happy camper is so far under the mark I hesitate to use the words. I wish everyone on AZ could take it to the pool room with their favorite cue, and more completely understand my sentiments.
Happy New Year to you, Karen, Jessie and all of your loved ones (including on the way!).
And congratulations to both of you on another very successful year of custom case making, as evidenced by the dozens and dozens of individually crafted and built heirlooms displayed in this thread!

Thank you so much Will. Without you and all of other wonderful customers we wouldn't have a business. We are so very lucky to be in a business where we know we can make people happy with every delivery.
Karen says happy new year to you and Rhoda and hopes that you had a wonderful Christmas with your family.
Great line up for the year John, quite a few amazing work. My favorite has definitely got to be "Snap The Music" and "Danger". Both incredibly unique and never seen before cases.
Hopefully I'll see a case or two that belongs to be in your 2013 collection!
Happy new year buddy!
