Hey Monty, nice to see you here.
Now that you mention it, I remember seeing that case and thinking: That's odd. With all the saxes that I've collected pics of over the years, I've never seen anything like it before.
It's possible that Pete--who is the only person I know who has more sax images collected than I do--has come across something like this before.
If we same his name 3 times, he usually appears in a thread... Pete, Pete, Pete...
BTW, I'm guessing you've read the page on my website that talks about my experiences with having Bruce build the custom case for my Buescher bass. If not, I'd suggest you give it a quick look because it does offer some sage advice for just this type of project. (Things we learned the hard way, that will save the next person time and possible $ on their project.)
On a related note, this page provides pics of a custom case built by a member of the Bass Sax Co-op. Different from what you're planning on building, but nonetheless perhaps useful.
