1. This is a view looking down at one end of the box. Notice that it forms a pocket. This pocket allows for the pitch horns to extend down into them.

2. I partitioned off the interior to support the individual blades. By storing the blades opposite each other I balanced the weight distribution which makes the box easier to handle when loaded. The picture doesn't show it but I also lined the dividers with rubber to protect the blades painted surfaces.

3. The storage box started out as the original shipping crate as received from RWI. I beefed it up with screws vice original staples. I also modified the ends to receive the pitch horns. Handles were added to facilitate handling.

4. I added 2X4 feet to provide additional strength to the bottom. It was amazing how much paint it took to seal the plywood exterior!
