heavy artillery Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Nice work. The handle is interesting. At first glance, I thought maybe it could be recessed into the case body (grab the bar and pull out to extend it from sitting flush). Were you looking at an insert for the interior?

usmc25 Posted March 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 Currently working on the interior, Im using Greg Foxs range case as an inspiration. Im hoping to have it done next weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavy artillery Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 Quick question: What led to putting the lock on the opposite side from the handle? I was just thinking that if the lock latch were to give out, everything in the case might dump on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryo Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 Quick question: What led to putting the lock on the opposite side from the handle? I was just thinking that if the lock latch were to give out, everything in the case might dump on the ground. Maybe he is using it as a stop so when he opens it, the handle holds it up. Good point about it dumping.. but if he added straps, it would hold it in.. Maybe add another latch for security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
