Default Looking for how to make boxes

I was wondering if somebody could help me find the thread on how to make boxes to carry the trucks and trailers in. I remember seeing it somewhere but I can't find it now. I guess I'm getting blind in my old age .

Thanks in advance Keith

Keith a lot of guys use 1/2" or 3/4" foam board from a home building supply store, duct tape the all corners and BAAM, a box for transport and storage. I use a hot glue gun to set the pieces than tape em' up after. Some guys even decorate them with pink bows, bedazzle them and so on...... you could throw some pictures of craw-fish on yours for the Ka-Jon flare. lol

OK will have to look for it :-). I've got some 1 inch styrofoam insulation that I used for my portable building I done but wasn't sure if that would work. So I guess I'm off to Lowes or home depot lol.

That the way this is. Wasn't sure if it would be sturdy enough :-).
