Rossr Posted March 10, 2019 Report Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) Well this was completely different then anything I have ever tried. I had a family friend approach me about redoing her daughters Bassoon case. I decided to give it a try and these are the results. I replaced the inside with Red velvet and a fake fur material. The outside is covered in calf skin. The corners are wet molded veg tan. I also did a little carving on the lidded compartment in the inside. New hardware which I found at ohio travel bag..fast shipping! I recovered the metal handles with leather too. Overall I am pretty happy with the results.! Open to all comments ...pretty sure I wont be doing another...the price I would have to charge would be insane! Edited March 10, 2019 by Rossr Quote
