Seeking To Have Custom Size Case Made?

[richard]

Hello

 

I would like to have a standard style concertina case made for my smaller Carroll concertina. I am seeking a case that offers reasonable cushioning but being no bigger than it needs to be. The instrument should be a snug fit.

 

If anyone can make one or knows someone who can please contact me.

 

Thanks,

 

Richard

Speak to Greg Jowaisas (who incidentally works with Wally Carroll), he made a very nice custom case for me.

Greg Jowaisas made an excellent custom case for my Carroll.

Thanks for the recommendations but I attempted two tries at Richard's case but was unsuccessful. I am concentrating on repairs and not inviting case orders right now.

 

Someone else needs to step up and help Richard out.

I don't know what you're using now, Richard, but you might consider a good quality camera bag. You could use foam blocks for compression if needed.

 

A camera bag won't offer as good a protection against puncture, I suppose (although some of the nylon is pretty strong) but the padding offers good drop and bump protection. Not as good against crushing as a well-made case, either, but I think the main hazard is shock and jarring, and camera bags are designed to protect against that.
