I love the idea of a CF case. Strong stuff if done right.

yea tell me bout it! im surprised no one has jumped on this idea...guess its my turn...if any custom case maker would like to help let me know>>>i have carbon fiber manufacturers at my disposal...heck id pay 3-500 bucks for a nice carbon fiber case...

I would PM, JBcases.
Was browsing and seen he makes/made a drop in interior that peeps could use in a Justis case. But what to do about the lid?

 

[lajus007]

slide off locking, something like an George case? remember carbon fiber can be shaped into anything before the form is made...literally...

im sure this idea would be good for smaller style cases...i dont think id would work for 3x6 or 7 unless a handle was incorporated...but would be awsome for smaller 1x2 and 2x2s maybe even a 2x4...

What form of case were you looking for: The cues go in the top, or one that opens like a book?

 

[lajus007]

slide in through the top....not suitcase style..those i can make with square 2.5x6x32 carbon fiber square mold pipe...and a lil innovation of course lol....i was thinking more along the lines of an old meucci or george style case...with the pop off top...slide off i should say...but you get the idea/..

Oh I know. CF rims on one of my motorcycles.
Several other CF parts like panels. Didn't have the cash at the right time and missed out on a CF fuel tank.
Also know of a few CF frames out there for big bore bikes.
Crazy what peeps can do with CF.

Thack one of them cheapo's and wet lay CF right over it. Lid would still be the hard one.

Is that real CF?
It looks like fake CF. The stuff painted to look like Carbon Fiber.

I have no idea. I remember seeing somebody at a local poolhall with one of them and it looked pretty legit. But again the keyword here is 'looked.'

At least the concept was there?

the cases have been on hold for a while, but I'm gonna crank on tube style this summer. The luggage style, though beautiful, is a whole lot of hand finishing and i'm more a fan of the tube style anyway. I have several designs laid out and will get back to it as I have a bit more time. I'd be interested in following any progress you make.

The Longoni is not carbon fiber actually, just finished off to look like it.

Peace,
