I still want a Zero Halliburton briefcase. It would be wildly impractical for me, but I want it nonetheless.

I still want a Zero Halliburton briefcase. It would be wildly impractical for me, but I want it nonetheless.
- mpclark 6y agoIf it helps, I bought one around 25 years ago. It is a thing of great beauty. But I’ve used it maybe twice, and lugged it through maybe six house moves since then. All a bit pointless.
- LyndsySimon 6y agoThe biggest thing that’s stopping me is that I can’t decide if I want to buy one that’s in pristine condition (and never want to use it for fear of damaging it) or one that’s beat up and has tons of imperfections (and feel bad about spending so much money on something that looks like it fell out of the back of a van). I’ll likely eventually find one cheap at a flea market or estate sale. That, or end up buying a slim modern Pelican case for the same purpose.

(alas, Concorde packet delivery no longer implemented.) TEUs for Jumbo Framing?
