Hi guys, Here's a few pictures of a case I've been working on for Manwon. I've still got to finish the strap and touch up some edges but for the most part it's finished. I hope you like it Craig.
Rusty, I don't know what to say, except that I can't wait to receive it, and you Rock Dude, that is even more than I expected. I have been and will continue to be an advocate of Rusty's work, for two reasons, his potential is limitless, and because he is an Honest hard working man who is passionate and meticulous about his work.
A while back I sent photo's of Rusty's work to Chas Clements, and Chas was very impressed with what he saw, in fact he offered to help Rusty anyway that he could. Since that time Rusty and Chas have spoken about Rusty's work and I am certain with the Masters help Rusty could be one of best in this field some day.
All I can say is if you truly want a high quality hand made and hand stitched Cue case that will protect your high end cues and that is also a work of art, Rusty is your man. Rusty makes all his cases himself, in his one man shop, so in my opinion there is no question that you get what you have paid for and built by who you wanted to build it. However, I would not wait too long, because this gentleman's work is quickly becoming sought after, and we all know what happens when that occurs, wait times become very very long.
Rusty, I will call you soon for the commission of my next case!!!!!!!!
Take care and thanks again Rusty!!!!
