Check Big Lots, that where I got mine. $10 bucks, will hold my radio, charger and batteries in the bottom and has seperated storage bins for small parts built into the lid. Real nice setup..

Tackle boxes work nice, or some of the cheaper toolboxes from Sears or something.

One thing I've always found is that the one thing we inevitably start out "too small" is our toolbox or pitbox - we grab one that looks like it'll do and outgrow it within a week, go back after some time and get a larger one and outgrow it within a month, etc., etc., etc. these are awesome, I broke down and got one of these and am still surprised by how much stuff I can pack into it  This is what i have and it works really good. It seperates, the top for tools the bottom for big stuff like chargers and fuel. |

yeah, the yellow and black one looks cool. thing is is that im just getting back into the hobby and i guess i picked a bad location to do it. Korea doesnt totally keep up with the times sometimes. the newest model the local shop has is a Wheely King. and there parts selection is very much in the lacking department. and the lack of skill i have. im sure it'll all work out eventually. but thank you all for the ideas
