Cases. Holders? Cases...

One of the reasons I like the quality of the ultras and the lack of a screw. I once had a few pro-molds for the small bowmans that did not seem to close properly. After looking, I realized that the screw was threading both the top and bottom pieces creating a gap. After opening the hole a bit on the top piece so the threads would only catch the bottom they tightened up. This might be part of your issue.

Sorry if you are bummed on the cases.

That may be worth looking at too. I will continue to play around with them and report back. Of course the seller empathized with my situation, but did not offer to refund me.

Thank you for this insight, Justin. That's brilliant. I was having the same trouble with my Pro-Mold one-screws. I couldn't figure out why, after tightening the pieces together sufficiently, the case was still loose!

I have a model car rat tail file that will work perfectly to open up the aperture of the top hole.

Thank you again!!!! ---Brian Powell
