      What padding did you use around the controllers and cars? I picked up a nice case that actually fits all my cars nicely on one side, will need some mods for the controllers (but I’ll wait til I get my 4 channel controller), but couldn’t find the padding anywhere in Bunnings Hardware.

      Any help would be appreciated.

      Cheers

      The box has two hinged sides, flip it over and you can see the rest – well, if the cars wern’t on top that is 😉

      The nice thing is that it has removable partitions in some slots, and a carrying handle at one end. Ten bucks from Howard’s storage

      Bunnings should have a foam section… they sell seat cushions and foam mattresses etc. You can get thin opencell foam there.

      Clark Rubber is a better bet.

      I use the nice dark foam that often comes in computer gear packaging.

      Of course if you really want to get fancy ask at your local camera store where to get the foam they use in camera cases. it has a laser cut grid pattern so you can pull out the exact shapes you need.
