Wanted. Case for a One piece (nothing fancy)

[ronfor0603]

Hello!
Does anyone have a case for a one-piece cue?
Certainly do not need to be anything fancy.
A tube or a wooden box. Something that just collects dust.

Do not know exactly what the shipping cost will be to Sweden. But when I look on Ebay, it's ranging from £ 10-25
Please come with suggestions including shipping cost
Regards/Ronnie

I once made a one piece cue case from 40mm waste pipe and fittings. Did the job for several years.

Is it just me or are Cue cases ( Especially 1 pieces ) the biggest rip off ever??

Serioulsy, i see cases selling for more than a lot Cues and at the end of the day they are cheap timber wrapped in placards of leather and lined with a material.... That is for the mega expensive ones to!

Even the cheapest alloy ones are still expensive and these would cost no more than 5 pound for a company like Peradon to make or most likely import from China and then stick their own badge on em!

I cannot believe what the price of a case is currently and i am in the market for a 1 piece case but cannot find one that is cheap!

It must be the look at me factor some are after when you arrive at the club with a 300 pound stuck on leather stitched case in bright cheap colors!!!! I mean seriously they are not worth what most are asking for them and it is a rort IMO.

I phoned green Baize a while ago about a 3/4 patch leather case they had on their website . They said they had none in stock . I said I'd wait till one was made and he told me they wouldn't be making anymore because the cost of making them has went up and there was basically no profit to be made anymore .

I thought the same as you , that they would be really cheap to make . Especially when the leather is so thin (mine chips at even the slightest knock) . But apparently they are quite expensive to make
