A person or machine that makes, forms, or places things into cases; also used in printing for one who sets type cases.
From 'case' plus the agent suffix '-er', meaning one who does or makes. In printing, it refers to handling type cases.
Medieval printing casers could set 2,000 characters per hour—their fingers moved so fast they looked like they were vibrating!
