Default Case for 4x5 film holders out there?


Can't seem to find the right case. I have 12 holders, who makes a nylon,
rectangular zipper top case with a strap?

Check the miliary surplus outlets. Years ago I found some very rugged
canvas engineering bags/cases each holding eight 4x5 film holders very
nicely. They can be attached to one's web belt or hung by a strap from
one's shoulder.

Along the line of what Lawrence suggested, I have a canvas Tamrac
field-guide bag, with snap belt loops, that holds as many as 5. I know you
want a bag to hold 12, but.... just a thought.

Following up my own post here. Did some rummaging around the net and found

This looks much like what I have. I'd double check the width - height -
depth specifications with the vendor before deciding on these.

I have toyed with the idea of adding velcro fasteners to the bags I have,
but have not really found the necessity to do so.

How about a case for compact disks?

That is my exact idea...

but CD jewel cases are thinner than holders by like a 1/16" or so. And that rectangular case
idea, zipper around the top with a flap over it, sewn thin padded nylon shell around the
plastic box frame with molded-in slots = they way to go. I wish, and I bet it's been made in
the past.

These days people book their discs, or they concentrate them down to mp3 so as to carry
fewer discs.
