JustDreamin - just throwing this out there. Your rolling toolbox looks good when converted. Couple of pics in these threads.

One of my mates use one of these as a flight box for a while, worked well.
12V at the bottom give it stability.

kid in that pictures a bit young isnt he? :P
i use an old fishing tackle box, but its not very big and i cant fit a 12v battery, charger or starter in there as i also use it for my trucks, its packed with old servos, suspension arms, shocks, bumpers, diffs, gearbox parts e.t.c
