i saw it.i would probably give it a try at $155 if i was in the market for a 2X4,but i hate that it doesn't have a shoulder strap.looks pretty solid though.
he is so close to you he is in Elk Grove your in Stockton I wonder if you can contact him and go see them Im in the Freson area I was just up in Sac and forgot to contact him about a visit
Just my opinion, but the design does not appear to be very refined or elegant. $155 is only the current bid, and I would think you could do better for what may end up being almost $200.
I totally agree. Looks like the alpha version. Not refined. Clunky.
A Velcro strap holds on the wooden top piece?
And, MY! What a big pocket you have!
The concept might work. But stapling a handle and oversize pocket to a tube ain't gonna cut it.
And contrary to his rambling description, Fellini's ARE vacuum sealed. Whereas this guy has a round piece of wood which you insert into a round tube. And since both leather and wood expand/contract at different rates, he included a nice classy velcro strap to hold it all together.
JMO! Hopefully he'll go back to the drawing board and refine the design.

Go to HD and buy some PVC pipe. Make a top and bottom plug. Glue some vinyl material on it add a strap. Get some golf club tubes and make your own case for less then $20.
