I have recently starting running some of the 1/24 races around Portland. I quickly realized that I needed almost nothing in my 1/32 club racing box for this besides a couple screwdrivers. I am using a Plano tackle box, it works pretty well for what it is but I wanted to have something purpose built.
I former co-worker of mine and friend owns a company here called PDX Design Studio. He has CNC router capability, laser engraving, and a fantastic workshop. I looked around online, and while I found some boxes that were somewhat within my budget the shipping was flat out crazy for one of these (i think too much in many cases).
Anyway I commissioned him to build me a box, the price was less than most I could find online, and I don't have to ship it in this case.
It is a modular design so all of the drawers or car slots can be moved around to change the layout depending on the cars you are taking or need for storage etc.
He is in the process of building it, but sending me pics along the way. So this is sort of a "build thread"......
