Case
To begin the case, I first want to place the title strip (name plate) inside the case as this case is meant to be handled as easily as the model itself while keeping the "thumbprint" of others off of your "delicate parts".
This title strip features the logo of my organization, the Dressler Design Group, I am proudly sponsored by Patriot Services Group who made it all possible, the title strip features their logo as well as it is a "collective effort".
The title strips are then placed face down on thin, 2" (50mm) two sided, transparent tape, commonly referred to as "cat tape" or, "carpet tape" and is widely available.
After placement, the residual tape is removed leaving only the strips, the paper being removed, exposing the second side of the tape to place the strip inside the case transparently but very, very securely (it's never coming out)
The Mylar is .005ml sheet but .01 is preferable but not as easy to come by, for additional cases I will be using .007, either way, it's difficult to see against a chroma-key green background.
In this example, the case is 3.5" x 7" (88.9mm x 177.8mm) and 24" (60.96cm) long.
The ends have a four-sided lip 3/8" (9.525mm) that provides an "inset", it is easily folded as you would paper but scoring VERY LIGHTLY, only enough to break the surface tension as it folds like cut glass, it takes very little to relieve the surface tension.
