Equipment cases

Hi folks,

Following on from the Bunnings "Craftright" case thread, there seems to a stack of similar cases in Supercheap Auto stores at the moment. Three sizes from $17.95 to $49.95.

Don't seem to be as well made as the Bunnings ones, but cheap and handy to have.

These ones were at the Menai store.

Cheers,

Earl

260x245x175mm
345x290x145mm
515x435x215mm

From their website. I would have just said "small, medium and large..."

The largest size is not as as big as a the Bunnings one.

The case design looks the same as the Bunnings ones.

Are they the same cases just re-badged?

If you're looking for something a bit prettier head to an Eckersley's art supply shop, they have some nice wooden cases, nicely made, perfect for eyepieces and small items. The largest I found was the Jasart 'supply case', internaly dimensions about 350 long x 180 wide x 110 deep, hinged lid with strong handle, hinges and latches to keep it shut, $75. Toss the wooden dividers and redo the interior to suit your bits & bobs.
