shape a phong 6263 case to perfection?

[janeto72]

Based on the handful of late-model 6263s I've seen? Pretty much indistinguishable.

I raised a concern earlier that the Phong-Thin might have slimmer lugs than a gen. I would have to see them side-by-side, I think.

I agree....i measured it up to a gen and it's on the money.Late model 6263 case.The lugs are perfect,The only thing I don't like is that the lug holes for the spring bars need to be about 1mm further towards the end of the lugs to accomodate gen 571 endlinks.With a little massaging of the case you can get gen endlinks to fit perfectly....

J: what does your case measure from tip to tip? ~43mm? I didn't get to measure it before shipping it to you.
