BearMan Report post Posted September 19, 2009 Hello everybody, I was asked to participate in the local Lions Club craft show. So I figured that since the Lion's club does a lot of work with eyeglasses, I would make some eyeglass cases. Here are just a few of the ones I have planned to take there. By the time I get done, I will have about 3 times as many,,, with about that many more designs. They are all lined with soft pigskin, & the fold over style uses a magnetic catch. It's been so long since I've had any of my things for sale,,, I have no clue what to charge for them. I hope you like them,,, let me know!! Thanks for looking,,, Ed the"BearMan" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete Report post Posted September 19, 2009 Ed- those are REALLY neat. I have made a ton of them myself but have problems at times with the diameter. Seems like I finish a case and the person wants to put sun glasses in them or bi-focals with a large bridge or something. Glasses don't fit or can't flatten enough. Do you have teh same problems? What (if you don't mind) are the specs for your patterns(they all look about the same)? By the way- I LOVE the idea of the last one - looks like you cut a slit across like a holster!!! I AM GOING TO STEAL THAT IDEA_ just wanted to forewarn you. Beautiful work respectfully pete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pete,,, here are a couple pictures of the cut out patterns,,, hope they help. Ed the"BearMan" thanks so much. Those are almost the same specs as mine. I'll just have to find clients with narrower minds and beadier eyes! [ete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
