A padded tripod bag - bought from Cases & Covers (http://www.casesandcovers.com/) I can highly recommend their cases - I have one for my LX-90.
On their site it is listed as suitable for a "Meade 8 ,LX90, LX200 Celestron 8,NexStar 8, w/wedge"
I have used it with the standard Meade Tripod for my LX-90 8inch. In the photo I have tucked the tripod down one end. There was room in the bag to put the wedge in at the top. The wedge didn't fit when attached to the tripod, but could be tucked in above the tripod. (I've sold the wedge already, hence it's absence from the photos)
The bag is ~1200mm long. The diameter of the biggest end is ~250mm.
These are USD$95, plus USD$15 shipping (~AUD$122).
I'm selling this one for $100 including postage.
I no longer need this as I received a tripod bag with my new GEM mount.
