Because I can never not be building something, I decided to pare down some of my scrap 0.5" plywood and use it to make a range box to transport launch supplies. Its dimensions are approximately 6" tall x 10" wide x 24" long. I wanted compartments for the launcher and pad primarily, and then just added dividers to the remaining section, which turned out to be the perfect width for Estes motor 3-packs. Some extra parachutes and other stuff will be stored in the third thin compartment. I gave it a simple paint job with a quick little retro graphic, a clear coat, and some hardware. I'll add some rubber "bumper" style feet to the bottom, a way to secure the pad compartment so the items don't fall out during transport, and maybe some pouches into the inner part of the lid. I guess the next item to build is a rocket transport system to go with this!
