redcell7 Report post Posted May 6, 2012 thanks people ....its very time consuming but well wort it ....and it does make a kool place to store some of your leather tools...it will only be about 4 inches deep ...i was going to try and rig up shelves ...but decided i will just cut a long strip of leather and put rivet s every couple of inches in a loop that the tools will fit in Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tenpoundsledgehammer Report post Posted May 12, 2012 Ever consider building guitar cases like that? Sell those with matching adjustable guitar straps... You'd make a killing! Just a thought... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tenpoundsledgehammer Report post Posted May 12, 2012 Jeff Parish, huh?! No kiddin'?! I tell ya what, if you're up for it, I'll show the pics of your coffin box to a buddy of mine that knows how to build guitar cases. He's got a brand new 6-string bass that I'm pretty sure he'd like a killer case for. Just let me know what you think. I can measure my case and help you with estimating dimensions if you'd like, too.
