Voigtlander VL-1 Case or similar

I am looking for a lens and viewfinder case like the discontinued Voigtlander VL-1 case. I know Cameraquest still has a few but the postage to Canada is far more than I am willing to pay on a small order (no offence Stephen).
If I am out of luck with finding a VL-1 then I also can't seem to find a small cases for my CV 15mm/35mm either. I am keeping an eye out for some older used cases as modern ones seem to all have diameters of 3" or more.
If anyone knows of some small cases or pouches that offer real protection (I am going on a camping road trip) then please let me know
Cheers!

Not having such a case I bought a deep metal rear lens cap and a flash shoe for a Nikormat and combined the two. Drill four small holes in the bottom of the lens cap and the flash shoe part then mounts on the cap. Keeps lens and finder together and then just use a small pouch. I've done this for my VC 15mm and my Nikkor 35mm f2.5 and it works well. Joe
