So, I was scouting around and found Dusty Johnson and his website for Pleasant Valley Saddle Shop. Not only does he repair show saddles and have a saddle making class, he also makes "flute quivers" for his Native American flutes . . . check it out

They are so beautiful, I asked if he thought they would make a good cue case. His cases were very close in dimensions, so we talked it out and I asked him to make me one. The only thing was his cases did not have dividers for the butts and shafts. Instead, I used a Lucasi sleeve and one of Dusty's "flute socks". Works fantastic! I asked for the case to be 34 inches tall and it is a little longer than needed, But there are no pockets, so I put my chalker and tip-tool in a little felt bag and lay that on top . . . perfect.

Dusty was wonderful to work with. I talked with him several times on the phone and it was a pleasure to get to know him a little bit. He does amazing work. This case took about two weeks to make. All of the artwork are original Pueblo Indian designs. Dusty has a catalog and you can design your own.

I get tons of compliments . . . enjoy the pics!!

Wow.....what gorgeous leather....creative design.....no surprise u get compliments.

Personally speaking, my cue cases have to include really good dividers for my cues.

Without any dividers, your case seems better suited for storage of pool cues.....IMO.
