Mosrite case

Been checking around for a case, and could not find a decent one, so I built a case.
Sturdy as all heck, but darn its a little on the heavy side with the guitar in it.
But for a total cost of less than $60.00, I think I can learn to live with it.

Could you please give us a short rundown on the construction? I'm going to need 2 cases (for a Combo and a Maphis) and they're difficult to find, and super expensive when you do.

Do you need a material list or how to build it?

Both! I'm not experienced in woodwork or tolexing, but I figure if I can fix cars and build amplifiers I can make a guitar case.

I will put it on a document, and then post that four you. it would be much to long to post it in a thread on the forum.
I will try get it done for you today.

I have not forgot about posting the materials and list for you.
My computer is down and I am using an I-pad right now,
I will post as soon as I can.

Thank you, I appreciate it. The Mosrite is my "garage sale" find.
I found it at a garage sale for $75.00
It was complete but missing the tremelo arm.
I originally painted it the stock Mosrite maroon, but because I switched to a non-Mosrite bridge, I fiqured sense it was no longer a stock Mosrite, I painted it this candy pearl orange.
Its difficult to in the pictures, the the candy pearl really pops when the sun or stage lights hit it.
