So I had a trip planned over Christmas where I wanted to take several pairs of Oakleys. I also wanted to bring along a few of my for sale items so I could list them at craigslist there.

So I decided to go grab a pistol case from Bass Pro Shops and convert it into a glasses carry case. I took off the big Red Head Logo and added in some Oakley logos from the Vault right around the corner at the mall. Then cut the foam to fit the glasses.

I think I might get another piece of foam someday and try to actually hot wire cut it next time. But it is doing the job just great!

Thanks! It worked out very well for me. I know that there were Oakley briefcases that were made at some point but I haven't seen one anywhere but on the Pics You May Not Have Seen thread. So I had to come up with something of my own.

I chose this particular case because it was aluminum and I could find one on the shelf. I'd really like to have one about 2" thicker so I can put boxes/vaults/etc and stuff in one layer and then glasses in another. But...this'll do nicely ;-)

Fantastic idea !
I'm considering that solution right now for my sunglasses ^_^
This will be perfect for the futur move. Thank you for exposing that project.

Well I could cross post this into the Vacation thread as well. It all stems from the every present question. Which glasses do I take on vacation? It was easy to narrow down to 2 pairs of assault boots (1 tan and one black match just about anything) but narrowing down the glasses?! Its a struggle every day to decide what to wear!
