im currently building a Tenor guitar loosely based on a stella tenor from the 60's, im looking for a case that it would fit in, my problem is i've made the guitar a bit deeper than the original.
i've had a hunt on the web but can find anything... :(
It just so happens I build cases for tenor guitars that are a bit deeper than an original stella for a living. Just kidding.
What I would suggest is visiting the SKB cases website and contacting customer support. I don't know if they still build customer order cases, but they may be able to help you and they're decent plastic hard cases that don't cost a bundle. Other than that, I know you searched the web, but I just searched with the terms "custom instrument cases" and came up with a number of links that look promising. Unless you are able to locate just the right case by luck (unlikely), having one built is your best bet.
It might be worthwhile checking out cases for baritone ukuleles, also maybe gig bags for mandolas.
I currently have a baritone uke hard case I'm trying to sell !

How deep is our guitar? Finecases.com sells one for a five inch deep tenor guitar.

Re: Tenor Guitar cases....Where?
I just made a gig bag for my OM out of deer skin. Its a nice dark brown soft leather with a full zipper and a padded lining
took about 3 weeks to cut and hand sew the bag together, but the materials didn't even cost me $50
didn't shoot the deer myself, though. My cousin Tom got this one last fall. He gave me made some nice chops and a bit of the sausage he made, too
