Default Engine transportation ideas????

Looking for pics or links to some suggestions on transporting Nitro engines. I have 3-4 engines with pipes and air cleaners mounted. All I can come up with is a cardboard box. Looking for that 'dialed' storage/transport idea but not coming up with anything.

Thanks RC'ers.

Check out pelican cases, you can find knock off for cheaper. They come with foam cubes you can add or remove to fit whatever you need.

Pelician cases are super durable but their not cheap their also water proof and shock.

I'll try out my Pelican case I have for one of my pistols. But that one might be too shallow for an engine.

Go to Walmart and pick up a padded 2 pistol case (@$15) then just cut the foam to what ever contour you want...shouldn't have an issue with room, I use one for my futaba 3pk plus charger, cords, 4s LIpo, glow starter, and temp gun.....
