Custom/Bootleg E-Cig Cases

[Bad Newz Blare]

You can also use Spray Foam and Felt. We do custom cases at work a lot and we will spray the foam in (start with very little and let it begin to expand) and then place the felt over the foam, press the pieces you wish to fit and allow it to form. You can use a razor to trim if needed once it has dried. It can get a bit messy but it allows you to get a really tight fit.

where do you get that stuff??

You can get spray foam in cans. I know Home Depot carries it, probably even Walmart.

I got pretty tired of all E-cig components being scattered through out all my pockets and getting scuffed,scraped,and battered. so I came up with bootleg case for my some of my gear till I find some better tins or what not... if you have a custom/bootleg carrying case, you can post them here... inspire us!

So here is the temporary home for my "curiously strong" 510..... i call it the halfway house.
im trying to come up with a way to secure my liquid bottle and carts to the lid... other than that its perfect

HI I know this is not a thing to carry everything it but this case works for me. You know those small metal cases with clips on the outside, you can buy them at most dollar general stores etc.? They come with a pair of real skinny glasses for reading. Well they make perfect cases for your ecig (unless its a pen too big lol) and they come in multiple colors too. lot cheaper then buying something a little smaller off sites and even ebay and they cost like $3.00 with the glasses. by the way I enjoy reading this forum, great ideas, tips, tricks, etc. very informative. thanks a lot

Sounds simple enough but would defininately like some more info on this. If you have the time i'm sure most members, myself included, would even appreciate a tutorial with pictures.

I'm using a sonia kashuk makeup brush case. I can't post pics yet, but once I hit 15 posts, I'll show you. It's a white vinyl hard case about the size of an iphone, cut out some foam core to hold 2 nebula batteries and 2 cartomizers.

I'll see if i can put something together. It's hard to explain in text so I'll bang one out with photos and post the results.

That would be really great. Until now I didn't even know that such thing existed. You could almost repurpose any case if this works.

Can't post a link yet so try Cabelas go to hunting then amo cases. They have some nice small belt models that close up like a dart case.

Any new info/pics regarding the spray foam method? I'm considering doing this myself, but am definitely a visual learner.

i made mine with an old eyeglass case, a cut up crown royal bag, some foam from the box my e-cig came in, and a little hot glue

 

[SweetJonnyC]

Nice Crown Royal case!!! I must have about 50 bags I saved and this would be a perfect use for, well, 1 of them. Not trying to rip off your idea but now you got me thinking.
Thanks

I've been looking for ideas for carrying cases and I really like the antique pen and eyeglass case ideas. Thanks.

I just got a new Riva 901 and my old 501 slim case wouldn't work for carrying it in my pocket at work. I wanted something not too big. I found a "stash" tin I bought at a concert recently and had never found a use for. I took the foam that the Riva had come in and cut it down to fit. Holds my battery, atty, cone and drip tip or cart. I think it's going to be the perfect solution. Someone in chat pointed me to this thread to share it.

Thanks so much. I love these ideas. I know what I'll be up to later in the month.
