[Elecraft] K3 Pelican case?

[David Yarnes]

Hi All,

Pelican cases are excellent.  But they can get pretty expensive, especially 
in the bigger sizes.  If you have a Fry's Electronics store in your area, 
they usually have a fair selection.

A less expensive, but I think effective solution, can often be found at 
places like Harbor Freight.  They often have sales on some nice locking 
cases that are ideal for electronics stuff.  They come with the foam pads 
inside that you can cut to fit.  These are fully waterproof like Pelican 
cases, but they are very sturdy, and not a bad alternative.  The trick is 
finding one that really suits you as to dimensions.
