emailed craftsman's to see if they do customs as there 3/4 Tournament wide cue case would be great in 60' all i'd have to do would be the chalk compartment. i also got a quote to have one folded up out of 2.5mm polished ally but don't know where u could get it upholsted
i would also like to know the manufacturer of these customised aluminium cases... not too sure how to PM you Dottcom
cheers.
I think you need at least 10 posts to do that. I don't want to post the cue maker's detail here, because I haven't got his permission and spam issues. If you know jay_j maybe he can sms you since you are both from aus.
Go to B & W and look at the leatherette cases, 2nd page, last one. It's a tri-colour, 1 pc. triple case. They also say they have a triple case but no photo. This may be a new aluminum one, I don't know. I've been trying to email B & W for some info regarding another case but their email does not seem to be working lately. Hope this helps.
The bitter taste of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
yeah i really need a ally on as i travel a fair bit and the leather doesn't do so well in our tropical north queensland but the guy who makes them in nz works looks great and his prices he quoted me r unreal and will make them to any size so would be good for those ppl with 60 inch cues too

B&W do make an aluminum 1 pc. triple case. I talked to them this morning. Also, I got an email from them today so their email is working now. Maximum cue length is 58.5", I had the fellow on the other end of the phone measure the case exactly.

Must have been a blip/glitch because when I bought a case from them their email was quick and they answered all my Q's
Which got lost under a conveyor belt at Heathrow airport in London for a week, and survived with no real damage. They're good solid cases.
I can fit a 57.5" 3/4 jointed cue in with mini butt and telescopic extension plus 3 pieces of chalk and some sandpaper for tip reshaping etc. The top compartment holds the shaft and mini butt with some 3-4 inches to spare. The 2nd compartment holds the tele and butt with some 4-8 inches to spare (spare space is guesswork .. I don't have it here to measure).
The important measurement is the internal dimension, which is listed on most/all their case descriptions. As long as your shaft is not longer than 49" it will fit in the case I bought. If you need more then the case Terry has, has 54" internal space.
