[Elecraft] Transport Case for K3?

 Go to ebay and look for Pelican cases, either 1500 or 1600 series depending
on how much support gear goes with the rig. ND3F used my K3 in C6 with
keyer, cables, power supply all in a 1600 case and it would take the plane
running OVER the case to damage the radio. Plus, the cases are waterproof to
something like 25 feet and have a lifetime warranty.

Ditto the remarks on the cases Rose Kopp makes (elecraftcovers at rfwave.net).
I used one on the trip to C6 for CQWW but put it in my carryon. I've
travelled for years with the K2 (and took it too this year) by just wrapping
it with a largish piece of soft foam and then packing it in the checked
suitcase. Using Rose's case with some foam around the K3 would be OK in my
view for checked luggage.

I'm looking for recommendations for a small padded case for a K3, which
could in turn be placed into checked luggage. I'd like something not much
larger than the radio itself, with space for the radio alone.

What have others found that will protect a K3 during transportation?
