Thanks for all the replies peeps! I just can't believe that the scope manufacturers don't supply a decent case or two together WITH your purchase or at least offer you the opportunity to buy the bag or case built for that particular scope or a generic bag for certain scopes.
I have checked on optcorp and telescope.com etc and just cant find something decent for this particular unit!
sigh....I guess the best bet is to go to my local plastic crate supplier or something.
Its just sad to think that that only decent protection for such an expensive item is some cheap plastic DIY box from the hardware store.
