Smile Custom Xbox 360 Carry Case

Having seen one of these made by some chap in the USA, I thought I'd give it a go myself

Holds the console with the HDD attached, 2 controllers, 24 games (CD case in upper lid), video cables and power brick nice, snug and safe.

Ummmm.... Did you:

a) Simply buy a 'flight case' roughly the right size, as per the last picture, and stick some dividers in it to hold the Xbox kit??? If so, I'm hardly impressed...

or

b) Build the flight case to your spec (to suit the Xbox) from sheet materials, catches, corners, handle, etc. and then line it and stick the Xbox in it??? In which case I am extremely impressed....

????

Yep, made it from scratch Einstein, including discovering the metals with which the case were made . . .

The case is a £19.99 tool box from Halfords, comes with dividers etc and fits the kit perfectly. Much better IMO that the rucksack style bags available. Cut foam to fit the top section which houses the CD case (plus perhaps a remote and memory card).

The case is made for the job

Where do you take your Xbox ? Can't see mine moving until I move or put it in the attic with my old collection of consoles.

You should stick a "remove game before transporting" disclaimer sticker on the lid
