Sounds perfect for travelling, but I can see the cover plates getting
some dammage when I stack them up (I keep mine stacked, in order, on a
shelf and just slide them out when I need). My local supplier also keeps
his in a drawer and has caused me to wince on several occasions and he
rumbles through looking for the right key.
Seems to me there might be a market for a range of all new cases.
Leather, plastic vented, stainless steel, titanium/carbon fibre composite
with gold plating. Any offers? D/G productions Ltd or IronMan Cases
PLC, any colour you like as long as it's C green (sorry)
