Default Field Box/AMT Start Box

I finally got off of my duff and constructed a flight box whcih incorporates the necessary gear to start my AMT engines. It also carries a 35ah AGM battery, heavy duty 12V air pump, my propane and the umbilical connection(ASU connector) easily unplugs and can store it in the drawer. It has a pressure gauge to tell me what the retract/brake pressure is as I am pumping them up and another tells me the pressure to the engine for air start. It also can fill retracts using the scuba/engine start air with an air control knob. Even the EDT is convienently velcroed to the top of the box which also has room for up to 2 field chargers. I am lacking 2 10/32-4mm screw type festo fitting to fully complete it but I thought I would post the pics.

Don't you just love the kids art work in the background?

Man.. That is cool... I get tired of building planes sometimes and build something like that.

I have a similar setup to start my Wren. I have a din plug on the model and connect the glow and starter with this. The Display is built into the box.
