I've used that method on several cases, including a lovely, tan leather, Hassy
case, that I converted to fit an R5 & R6. A fellow flexer, Alex Hurst, is
familiar with it, as I took that one on a trip to Ireland. It was gorgeous,
but a bit too flashy. (I still have that case, but it's been gutted, to use
some of the materials for another case.)
Converting such cases is a slow, time consuming project, but very, very
inexpensive, and usually yields a wonderful case. I'm quite happy with my
current effort.
Good luck with it. Let us know the results, will you?
Best for the New Year, to you, as well!
David.
