Barb, I can't tell you anything about the Schaff, but I just purchased the one from Pianotek and, basically, I like it. My one personal objection is the same as with any larger type tool case, it tends to get heavier & heavier over time. I wonder why? :-) For my work here at the school, I still prefer just a simple tool roll for my tuning tools and a few basic regulating tools, etc. Just tuck it under my arm and go. The only other objection I have is that it has a lot of very small pockets for short tools (like maybe would be used in a combination handle?) and a few larger pockets that will only accomodate short handled tools, and I just don't have that many of that type of tool. So a lot of the pockets are still empty. Maybe I should go through the catalogs and find a bunch of short tools. :-) But it seems to be a very well-made case and I'm glad I bought it. If/when I buy another one though, I'm going to take a good look at the Genck case. Primarily because it was designed specifically for piano technicians type of tools. Hope this helps. I've saved a lot of the posts from previous discussions, so if you have any questions about them, feel free to contact me. Avery P.S. I believe Vince Mrykalo also has one of the Pianotek cases. >I know there was a lot of input on various tool cases a while back. >I've narrowed it down to a nylon zipper case. > >Has anyone seen both the one from Schaff and the one from Pianotek? >The picture in the Schaff catalog is kinda fuzzy. > >If you've seen them or used them, can you tell me if there is any >difference, and if so, what? > >Thanks, > >Barb Barasa
