I was asked in Pm , How this case works .
Here is my answer .
Hi Bud Yes its hard to explain , but there are 4 seperate sleeves that have 3 seperate compartments . So a butt and 2 shafts go into each sleeve in seperate compartments . These sleeves are fastened , 2 to the front part of the case and 2 to the back part of the case . they fold back and forth so you can load the front and fold so you can load the back . with the velcro flaps one end where you slide the cues into completly seal the cues so notheing will touch each other when loaded . I put a extra felt sleeve in the middle which has 3 compartments to make it a 5 x 10 . In fact I put 2 of these extra in , just to see if the case would zip up , and it did so I can make a 6 x 12 any time I need to .
The materal and workmanship are top notch , The protection is great , maybe not padded like a John Barton , but not quite as pricey also . For just going to the pub or cue show , I personally think it is Bullet Proof . Like I said before I have used a lucasi 4 x 8 for yrs , and have stuffed cues in the middle , but with the small flaps cues could rub against each other , I never dammage a cue in the Lucasi , but the possibility was there .The pictures in the thread , the case is loaded , with a extra in the felt sleeve , and you do not see any part of any cue . For the money if fact for twice the money this case can not be beat . If you get one and dont like it , send it back for a full refund , only thing it cost you is return shipping . Thanks jim
