As my Fw7 is my daily driver, I carry it regularly, in fact it's always in my pocket loaded ready to shoot!
In any case, I've been looking for a long time for an efficient, practical and small protection (to fit in the pocket), especially not to damage it, not to dirty it (I work hands in the soil) and also not to dirty the mouthpiece (which receives all kinds of shit).
I worked with a craftswoman friend on a custom-made leather cover that even allows to use it without taking it out of its case (especially for outdoor use).
Here is the result of our work:
The closure protects the MP and the FIRE button!
The bottom is not completely closed to let the device breathe and evacuate the heat :
Also, there is a small space to take the MP out :

I am thrilled because it totally meets my expectations! I love the mix of materials (wood, glass, leather and metal) and the black color which has an exceptional rendering on the grey (not visible on the pictures unfortunately).
At the beginning (few hours), the Fw7 sweated, I was afraid it would last but in fact it stopped quite quickly. I don't know yet if the leather and the wood will work well together, I wonder if it won't get too hot if I leave it in the pouch when I use it (not in winter with the cold but in summer?)
We are working on two other models: one totally closed for complete protection and another with a removable top and bottom (to be able to use it like this one and be able to remove the flap and fill the bowl without removing the leather).
I'm interested in your opinions!
