Update – Busy Month
It’s been a busy month. I have been at the computer each day for a little while but haven’t found the time to update the blog. This month I went to a large leather market and picked out many nice pieces for the orders I have. As well I got lots of samples of nice interesting leather types for possible use later.
I will be scanning or photographing this leather to see if I can put it up on the website in some way that gives a good representation of color and texture. I hope that this will help folks choose what they like a little easier.
A lot of you have emailed me about pictures. Very soon I will be putting up a batch of pictures which show off several styles of cases. Since I want to really emphasize the fact that I am a true custom casemaker I feel it is better to put up pictures that reflect the many styles I can do. I would hate for someone to see only a few styles and conclude that this is all we can make.
This month we have been working on orders and prototypes for production. During that time I have created a new style of interior that is flexible, lightweight and secure. I will be unveiling that very soon after I apply for the patent on it. Now that probably seems silly to apply for a patent on the interior of a cue case. But having seen my competition in the mass production side of the case making business take my ideas for years I think that this time I should take the precaution to protect the brain power investment on this. 
I have also invented another type of case that brings on-the-spot customization to a new level. Within the next 2-3 months this case should be on the market and it will (hopefully) quickly become a leader in the off-the-shelf cases. This case features the new interior and has a lot of neat features. As with the interior it is being patented as well and as soon as that process is well underway the unveiling will commence.
So that is what I have been up to. Thank you all for the kind emails and I promise pics soon of the new work.
