briefcase innards

[Ralph Boumenot]

Hi
Throwing out the question to see if a Creeker has the answer. I'm trying to find someone or something (mfg) that sells/makes the innards for a briefcase. I got a yearning to make a wooden briefcase again and I can't find the parts. I got my last one from Rockler but they don't sell the innards anymore. A couple of links from Lumberjocks didn't pan out and my search of the WWW came up empty too.

thanx

Years ago Leichtung offered a kit, but they're long gone now.

I've been on the lookout for good quality hardware and innards myself. I'd not consider spending the time Neandering a fine wood briefcase, only to put on brass-plated hardware and fiberboard innards.

Hi Jim,
I can find tons of sites on the WWW selling the locks, etc, it's the leather lining and divider thingie I want. Someone told me a guy on ebay selling briefcases sells innards but I haven't found him yet.
