Super Six Leather Sleeve

Just thought I'd share my little project today while stuck inside during the storm. I love the classy shiny look of Super T's mods and love my Super Six but it was always hard to get a good grip with my index finger and thumb simultaneously pushing the button with my pinky. If my hands were slightly oily it would slide inhibiting me to get a nice pressure of the button to contact the battery. Plus I just hated the oily feel. Anways, I took a piece of leather from an old bag I had, and stitched a nice tight sleeve. I may take this a step further and make one the full length of the casing with holes in the leather for the vent holes. For now this sleeve does the trick and I love the look of it too.

Thank you! I used a soft piece of leather, measured a square of it so that when wrapped around the casing that it would be tight and then took it off the case and threaded it together with a needle and black thread - was pretty easy!
