New case in the works

[Rusty Melton]

Here's a couple of pictures of a case I've been working on. Its my first attempt at adding some carving to a case. For a first attempt I was fairly pleased, but as usual I see few things I would do different the next time. Live and learn I guess.:smile: Let me know what you think. Rusty

Because you did not say, is this a 1 x 2 , 2 x 2 , or ?

I like it but I don't care for the belt/buckle latch on the lid. I want something quicker. Do they make a good looking latch like they use on backpacks that has two plastic prongs that slip into a pocket then expand and catch on each side?

Thats a pretty fancy shmancy case for a first attempt.
Keep up the great work.

A plastic latch like what is on a backpack to be put on a fancy leather cue case?:shocked: Really?

Nice work but I don't like the lid, it doesn't provide any moisture protection as it completely opened from the sides.
I wouldn't put any high end cues in it.

The top on the multi-cue case in your avatar is all this model needs to be a winner. Excellent carving, and that work is your path to success.

Thanks for the kind words guys, it means alot. Also thanks for the input on the lid, it helps to get a feel for what everyone wants. I put together a quick lid and I think it will work well. I'll put a picture of it on too. Oh I almost forgot its a 2X2.

[/IMG]thanks again, Rusty
