Here's the Box the shoestring now lives in.
I made this so it wouldn't get damaged while being transported in the trailer. It's much easier to store like this at home too.
I've made a couple of these boxes now, pretty easy as the foam can be ordered allready cut to size. All I had to do was bond them togethe using water based construction adheasive. Then I used HMG to hold the various blocks on the inside of it for the wings and fuse to rest on.
The box is very light and also keeps the plane from getting really hot if left in the car.
