Hey Brandon,

Can you maybe expand on your reasons for not being a fan of the Nature Boys Case? I'm also possibly looking into one, so would appreciate your feedback.

Thanks
Andre

Hi Andre ,

I opted for Carmate over NatureBoy because it's lighter n can accomodate more rods , NatureBoy is heavier and more expensive but sturdier though in construction . I think there is a thread by Kil C Song about these two .

Brandon Khoo:
John, it is heavier but I am not at all convinced that it is sturdier. It might look it but its hinges and clips and straps just don't looks that great to me.
I have a friend with one and his looks quite sick these days

Hi Brandon ,

You are right there , those exposed hinges are not the best thing n I usually tape the hinges n anything that protrude from the tube , lost the locking mechanism of a Bazuka rod tube once during a flight to PNG , luckily all the rods inside were intact upon arrival in Lae .

Jon .

Andre van Wyk:
Thanks guys, appreciate all your input...

Will look a little closer at the two.... Just had another look at Kil's post, it answers some questions as well.

Thanks guys
