I'd like to find a pistol case for my SAA clone to sit out in the den, Ive seen a couple blackpowder revolvers sold on here with a case that holds the pistol and accessories, but all my google foo turned up was either eggcrate bedding or fully fitted cases with no room. I want to put my 45lc 310 tool and some components in with my pistol while I'm displaying it. Anyone know where I can find something like that?

I found a old silverware wooden box in a junque shop to put my 36 cal navy in. Jerked the silverware stuff out & waiting for the weather to get better before cutting the dividers to section it off. BTW, it's deep enough to close on my 44 vaqureo so a 45 colt should fit.

Popular Mechanics, December 1980 was full of craft projects. One is a presentation case.

If the link fails, go to books.google.com and do a search for make presentation cases

This one may be simpler.

Check out cigar humidors, right now fairly cheap and some come with glass lids.
