Case Options for the OP-Z (not OP-1)

@PLNB said:
This device needs a rounded corner back shell more than anything. Lap usage is not recommended if you wear shorts and this thing gets squeezed into your thigh for whatever reason.

Ouch!

In other news, a fellow on Instagram came up with a Leather Case Solution!

I wrote the woman (Lizzy Gladstone) that makes them and she promptly replied:

I currently have 3 colors you can pick from: Chestnut Brown (like the pictures on Brandon Guerra’s instagram @ brandonguerradrums) Burgundy, or Natural (which is a beige that patinas over time into a caramel color.) I’m all out of black leather right now, but that is also an option if you can wait until December.

The case is $95 + $5 shipping to USA destinations (International shipping varies by location.) I make them to order, so it will take 2-4 weeks before it gets in the mail to you. I can send you an invoice through Paypal.

I was kind of hoping for a more competetive price, however it is a real leather, handmade product, and quite nice at that! Thanks for finding out more for us!

The longer of the 2 options.

Just wanted to follow up… Fits very nicely!

A small microfiber cloth placed on top and it barely moves.

No matter how small you thought the OP-Zed was looking at it on-line… It’s even smaller! :smiley:

COOL! I ordered mine, and it should be here tomorrow! Great find – I’m sure it will keep things super green until there are more official and fitted ones for this! I’d love a leather sleeve / wrap type of job, but not for 130$!

at least finding an alternative case is easy…just wait until those modules drop and having to fork out TE accessory prices for one (i`d guess £50+). Happy to read/see that everyone is loving the unit though.

I dont mind paying a little bit for hardware, im just concerned that their software / voice purchases will be a bit… lux.

Hello friends,

I bought a case (similar to the one posted above) from Amazon UK. It isn’t as pretty or as compact as I’d like, but I think it will keep My Large Son (my op-z) safe when it is being jostled about in my backpack. It was only £10 so I can’t complain.

Cool! I was thinking of getting some pick and pull foam – that should take care of the excess space!

Cause I cant upload the full sized photos here, this is a link to my instagram. https://instagram.com/p/BpzNmallPt9/

Is there someone who succédés on finding a wooden box with the same dimensions that the cardboard box the op z was shipped with ?
I bought hermit shell case btw :slight_smile:

One of the first things I posted was a wooden brush box. The dimensions look sound, however if I were going to commit to a wooden box, I think I’ll wait for Crema Caffe and see what they come up with!

Hey, just a heads up - I ordered this and its not great. It’s much more bulky than it looks and mine looked like it had been dropped several times as there were quite a few large dents on the edges.

But, I don’t have my opz yet to try it out. I can post pictures once I receive it if anyone is interested.

Bummer… i’m kind of curious what it looks like – any pics to share?

@boe_dye
Sure, I can post some when I get home this evening.

Cool. Worst part about the Z is that dimensions are “just over” a pencil case. There are so many cases out there that would be perfect if the Zed was a half and inch to an inch shorter!

Have someone tried this one https://manufactum.co.uk/case-cowhide-p1530722/?a=43473 ?

Seems to be a very good match.

They are probably specifying the full width of the case at 22 cm…by counting in the border width (2mm) it might get a bit tight for the Z with 22-0.4 = 21.6 < 21.85 cm (including the spectacular knob).

OOOH that looks good. Shame it can’t be a couple of MM wider. May be worth contacting them and suggesting they make something OPZ sized? They could easily sell for £50 and still be much cheaper than TE’s option.

Would assume that it wouldnt take much to make one to fit OPZ.

Yea, the tab was the deal breaker for so many case options.
