Modified Expedition map case

Let me first say the original idea is from Shadow- Warrior, great idea. What I did was make a slight change on HIS idea. That being said, I made my map case out of 3' as the 4' seemed a little big to store in the fj. I also made mine from black abs instead. The main change is how/where it opens. When you roll up a map and put it in a tube they naturally expand inside, and by having it open at the very top it makes it difficult to get a map out if one happens to be shorter than the tube. What I did was split the tube in half, that way when I open it up I have access to all the maps. Just a different way of making one, enjoy.......Thomas
