Justin started dabbling with wood at age 10; his father owned a hardwood flooring business. His finely crafted bamboo Macbook cases will be on display at the expo. They're incredibly gorgeous, sturdy, and light!
How They're Made
The cases start their life as a solid sheet of bamboo. They are then taken to a CNC machine where they are cut out to meet the specifications of the MacBook Pro’s. Once cut, the hand work begins. They are sanded, glued, felted, and finished all by hand. Then there is the leather strap, which come from a full cowhide. The hide is hand cut into strips and shaped to get a comfortable feel, then hand burnished and oiled to get a strap that not only feels great in your hand but will also last forever.
