Jim Rogers Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share #98 Posted March 4, 2023 I have started the case. Milled up some white ash and walnut. The case will be 42 x 13 x 14. Using my Shaper Origin I am going to I set my Pegasus Stands about 3/8 inch into the Ash and then carve the name on both sides. I think this is going to be a real nice case. I actually felt lazy so I asked a guy that does this for a living to give me a quote. Came in over $500 plus almost $200 for shipping in a knockdown configuration. So much for lazy wood ran about $100. Here are some photos of current status. Will update as I move along.

Jim Rogers Posted March 12, 2023 Author Share #99 Posted March 12, 2023 I got a little further on the case. The base is assembled. Ended up being 42 x 14. White ash with black walnut trim. Acrylic will fit down in the 1/4 x 1/2 groove and be pinned in place with maple dowels. The Pegasus stands will be sunk down 3/8 to lock them in place. garyshipwright, Trussben, Nunnehi (Don) and 12 others 11 4 Regards, Jim Rogers Damn the Torpedoes , Full speed ahead.

oldmate Posted March 27, 2023 Share #102 Posted March 27, 2023 Sweet build. Shows off your talent and what can be achieved when coupling those talents with great plans quality materials.

Jim Rogers Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share #103 Posted April 17, 2023 The case is finished with the Winnie installed. I think they really compliment each other. The Pegasus stands were inset using the Shaper Origin, as was the name engraving. The design of the case uprights were all my buddy Joe Kaare. He is a great wood craftsman. We have been designing and building my ship cases together for years.
