UPDATE: A modification that might be useful |

After my last review, I decided to take it upon myself to modify the tube case to make it a little better. I went to the hardware store and got some rubber adhesive/sealant. I pulled the inside tube out of the outer tube and cut it off just below the point where the two lock together. Then I applied liberal amounts of adhesive and seated the two parts back together.
This has a few effects: in the drawbacks column, it does make the tube a little less rigid and crush resistant, but not by much.
In the benefits column, the tube went from 2.1lbs to 1.3lbs.
It's also more water resistant; if the tube is upright in a wet environment no water can leak in between the two walls of the tube like it could before.
Finally, with the inside tube in tact, it was a VERY snug fit. It took finesse to get the fiddle in and out, and there was virtually no room for a bow. With the inside tube cut down, those issues disappear.
It's still not perfect, but it's better.
