RE: tool boxes
Go ahead and laugh, but my Daughter gave me one of her old makeup cases. It's an aluminum case, 15"X 12"X 6", with two compartments that lift out on metal arms to the left and right (holds my emergency glues, lock-tite, extra rubber bands, etc.) the large space below holds my spare props, foam, steel ruler, fuel bulb, tools and there is a panel attached to the lid w/velcro that has elastic bands that hold xacto knife, spare blade box, clothespins, telescoping mirror and magnetic parts grabber, sharpie pen and epoxy brushes. I still got a regular field box to hold the fuel jug, electric starter, glo-starter, safety glasses and windex wipes when I'm in the pits.
But I can't kick on the price for the toolkit (free) and my Daughter is tickled that she was able to donate something to her Daddy that he would use for his new hobby.
BTW, if you have teenage Daughters, you can buy this same kit at places like Walmart, Kohls, Kmart for about $25.00, take out all the makeup, give them to them as stocking stuffers for Christmas, and keep the kit. That way, you get a little bit of Christmas shopping out of the way and you get something useful. But, to each his own..........
