Hi Darren,

Below is a picture of a 30 inch mirror from an SDM Dob split in half which
occurred in October 2018 whilst transporting the scope in a small caravan-sized fully enclosed
trailer with good suspension along a public gravel road near Crookwell, NSW.

The mirror was within the mirror box at the time.

I've also seen a 25" that was being transported up to Ilford in a trailer
get a chip in a corner when unfortunately a stone managed to
get up inside the trailer.

Suggest you fabricate your own thin case for the 10" and carry it in that.
