Andy Report post Posted March 10, 2008 Hey folks, I rarely post here in the "show off" catagory, but this turned out to be a neat project. Case is for a SMALL violin (can anyone tell me the proper name of the instrument that fits this case?) Anyway, the pistol is a Walther P22 (22 caliber). FUN gun, reliable, accurate and FUN (did I mention FUN?!?!?!?!??!?!). I like being able to test drive guns while making leather (yes, I ask the customer first!). A holster and mag pouch finish out the project (not shown, still wet molding!). Andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They can be very small. Jason Edited March 10, 2008 by paris32000 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy Report post Posted March 10, 2008 Thanks for the good words guys....it was a used case I had around in my collection of "treasures" that needed SOMETHING done with it. I saw it, the gun, and saw a PERFECT fit. It was a quicky job, I did have one nicely edged (sewn suede) but the cover would not close, what you see is a super thin piece of bridle atop the fitted suede covered pistol/laser insert. What was the film quote Antonio Banderas "...bring your guitars."??? Now it's "..bring your violin". I need to get fiddlin'! Andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Randyc Report post Posted March 11, 2008 Andy Very cool idea. I once posted a photo of a harmonica case on this forum. Mine only held harmonicas. Randy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
