E-11 storage question

[PiettLives[TK]]

I have a DoopyDoos resin E-11 and am looking for something to store it in. What are you using? I'm also needing it to fit in a Stanley bin. Hard case, soft case, gun case, pillow case... what do YOU got?

[Solcar23[TK]]

I just wrap mine securely in a large soft towel.  It fits in the Stanley bin fine and I've never had any issues with damage even with rolling the bin around, Standing the bin on its side, putting it in the car, carrying it upstairs, etc.  They are relatively fragile, like, I wouldn't drop it on concrete, but they're tough enough to withstand storage in the bin with ease.

I use bubble-wrap and tuck it inside the bag I use for my armor, haven't had any breakages so far.

I wrap mine in an old towel. Been doing that for years without any damage. But it is always the last thing in the tub. Torso on one side, legs on other. Makes a nice "fig 8". Blaster goes on the side with magazine facing the middle of the 8.

I have a pink hello kitty towel I wrap mine in before it goes into my armor bin.

I tend to store mine in its leather holster for packing and transport.

I wrap mine in a towel then into my plastic crate it goes, towel comes in hand to have a quick wipe down after a hot troop

[Echo[TK]]

My crate has a shelf with foam that the blaster fits in its holster

That's neat! My case is all jumbled together (in a system, but sit looks chaotic).

Echo... now thats what I'm talking about brother! I have a small metal case that has that foam but it's too small to fit my blaster. I never even thought of doing the foam in my BIN! Thanks dude, that's exactly what I wanted. Also, funny but I never considered keeping it in the holster...duh. Sorry guys...my noobie is showing! Thanks everyone for the response and Echo, where did you get the foam and what's the dimentions?

[Clamps[TK]]

This is a very cool setup. Mine is far more 'organized' chaos compared to this.

 

Can we see photos of the next level up: ab,kidney, chest, back and bucket.

[tkrestonva[TK]]

Wow - that is a very nice setup. Quite professional-looking.

[Echo[TK]]

Thanks all.  My enthusiasm for my new hobby is showing haha..  Its clear that I like to keep things in order, but one of the biggest motivators was making sure I never forget anything when prepping for a troop. heh.  Organized on the outside, organized chaos on the inside of my head heh...  My wife can attest to how forgetful I can be.

Wow, that looks great!

 

I just wrap mine in a pillow case. It's the last thing into the bin.

[sve5mh]

your bin looks amazing....how did you fashion the aluminum rails to hold the shelves? even the foam cut outs are perfect! great job!!!

[VancouverTrooper]

Looks awesome, great job!

This is exactly what I was planning for my pimped out case.  But like you mentioned, it's pricey.  

Need to save some more Imperial Credits 

[Fumanchewie[TK]]

Wow Echo! Custom fitted archival foam, looks professional. Nice work.

[drscifi[TK]]

I have seen Echo's bin in person, it is quite impressive.
Here's mine.
I was extremely blessed to be given a Pelican 1660 case. =========
