| Post subject: | Smartgun storage crate/ammo box |
Have been looking for a way to transport the Smartgun to and from cons, rather than just shoving it in the car and covering it up. Off the shelf storage just seemed so expensive. So I decided to make one! Went for an old style WW2 look, and had a couple of old ammo containers knocking around so thought i would spruce it up so it could be displayed with the gun. All in all, cost about £30 so happy with that!

What a cracking idea, really well done as well, nice and compact, no wasted space. Great job Matt. |

Very nice. How heavy is it when empty? |
