RC8 storage box

Hi,

I am looking for storage ideas for RC8 or similar size scopes?

Got an RC8 recently and it is still living in its cardboard box. While adequate, the biggest problem is that once the tilt adapter and the focuser extension tubes are mounted the RC8 does not fit in the box any more.

Thanks in advance
Luka

Cut out the foam on the focuser end, and the end of the box, then it will fit.
