Question #1 - Case Liner Options

[tireytv]

This is my first question on the board.

I have the Al Stolhman books that cover construction of cases. I have volume 1 and 2 - amazing books

My question is that I'm constructing a simple travel case for m portable DVD player. The case will be about 7 by 10 inches. I don't want to line the case with leather because I don't want to spend too much on the lining and since it's to hold electronics, I was thinking some kind of felt or fabric lining would work nicely.

Can I use a felt lining? If not, what's should I use? How do I prepare the edge of the case after the lining has been glued in?

thank you,

Jeff
