Lugging that to the airport and checking it in baggage is not my idea of fun - it's rather large and heavy. Maybe I'll bring some nice pics....and some wood shavings... |

Well - 1 year and 9 months later -- I showed up for work and was greeted by a surprise. Yup - my custom case was sitting on my desk. Holy shihite! I was shocked. It had become a running joke with the guy.
All I have with me is my camera phone - so I will have to send some good pics later. But for now - here's a couple shots.....    |

Well - I am getting a great discount on it....materials only.
The Samurai are gone. In their place will go the Ambassador Plaza Tourney set and the Bluz cash set. I may just have to leave early to get home and put them all in the case. |

Can't wait to see the finished product! Gotta love the barter system.
edit: oops didn't finish reading the rest of the posts... Damn that thing is sick looking!
