Well, it turns out the case isn't in as good of shape as the boards inside it. After a good washing, the cover has surface rust all over it. Not from the washing, but from the 'storage' it sufferred thru before I came across it. I ended up taking out the top drawer to make enough room to stand the case on it's end. I tried with it sitting flat on the top of it, but that didn't work out so well-- hadda run it thru twice. Bob
