For you RC hobbyist's interested in a good quality toolbox that you could bring to the flying field, Defiance Metal Products offers a well constructed all purpose box. This box is constructed of .050 polished aluminum with a mirror finish.


All the hardware is made of stainless steel. It features four fold out trays, which are divided into 15 compartments. Four heavy duty latches, two on the side, and two keyed on top provide security. The split top opens on sturdy full-length piano hinges and the corners also have heavy-duty protectors.

The box dimensions are 18"W x 11.75"H x10.5"D. If you needed to, there is also plenty of room in the bottom compartment to add dividers for your own preferences. I added a ¼" plywood divider, and foam inserts to accommodate room for my transmitter. There is still plenty of room alongside the transmitter for epoxy bottles, and misc. tools. Another good feature of its aluminum construction is the box is very light for its size. With the quality of construction, and its impressive looks, this toolbox should handle your needs for a long time. There website is located at www.D-flite.com.
