(Like Tom Abrahamsson) I noticed how sleek that half case makes a camera look with a Rapidwinder. One smooth continuous unit! Toms Rapidwinders' Rapidwinder has evolved gradually so there was some mismatch. A shame that could not be worked out. The one i used in Boston over the counter worked perfectly together and looked great! Sleek! When i get my winder from Tom I'll be also getting the half case from George too! Of course when they come out with Leica's in Lemon Yellow and orange orange we'll have quite a bit of matching up to do. But George is going to stick to black I've got a feeling. He sure knows his leather and which stuff to get and use! Mark Rabiner Portland, Oregon USA http://www.rabiner.cncoffice.com/
