How do you make a Mandolin case?

Answer 1

Building a case requires a decision on your part, how you want the Mandolin to fit and how you want the case shaped, do you want it square or to mimic the shape of the Mandolin. It has to be strong yet light weight, do you want it in a wood finish, covered in leather, vinyl, etc. you can build it like a acoustic guitar body that forms to the Mandolin, the more exclusive wood/lumber shops have formable plywood that you can shape, (laminate 2 or 3 sheets together in a form jig to retain the shape you want) Here's a site that can help: * .
