how to make a pick case??

Postby jamesphilhulk2 » 27 Aug 2005 10:58

hi i'm just starting out in the picking hobby and seems that i am going to make my picks in the very near future. now obviously i will need a case for tme but i don't want to buy a case i want to make and i was wondering if any of you have made cases before and if so could you tell the specs for them for example

1. the measurements for a 32 or 69 Piece case
2. the right materials e.g the thread, case materials itself.


P.S i have a sewing machine

than you in advance for your replies :wink: :wink:

If you plan on making a leather case, I don't think a sewing machine will help. Decide on what kind of case you want (zip up, button up, fold up, roll up), what kind of material, decide whether you want big pockets to shove everything in, or a pocket for each pick for a snug fit, and go from there, and forget to leave room for expansion if you're planning on any whatsoever.
