Video: Storing Your Boba Fett Costume

I started off with a similar sized trunk which was 146 L

IHowever it really wasn't big enough and didn't protect my kit very well as there wasn't any room to fit foam inside or my Blaster which I had to carry in a separate gun case

Which wasn't very convenient pulling the wheeled trunk whilst holding the gun case. So I bought one of these.

It's a Stanley Fatmax toolbox / Trunk im the US they are rebranded as Dewalt. It's 240L and fits all my kit in with ease . It's really sturdy and has a large pull out handle to pull it along.
I am going to add thick foam to the sides and bottom for extra protection for my kit.
The first modification was to make a gun and shin tool rack in the underside of the lid. This involved cutting out a piece of foamex/Sinatra that was slightly smaller than the Iid. I then placed the various pieces of equipment onto the board drew around them and then cut slots for the webbing to go through . I then mounted the board onto a larger piece of egg shell foam and glued it on. I then pushed the webbing through and attached self adhesive Velcro to each end. I then attached the board to the inside of the lid using self tapping screws and plastic tabs which hold the board in the lid securely. Here is where I am ATM. More to come.....

Hi!

I know this is an old thread, but I was very curious to know how this solution for storage worked out for you.
Do you still use it, or have you found another way for it?

I got my suit almost a year ago, and am underway of making some adjustments and mods, and I'm also looking for the best way to store and transport the suit.
