[R-390] My home-made AN/URM-25D shipping container, w/ help from KSC

Hi,
I hope some of you find this interesting.
I was trying to get my trusty AN/URM-25D set up to do some calibration of the Sherwood SE-3 via the R-390A IF out. 
Of course some of the generator switch positions yield no output, so I am sending
it off to http://www.kiss-electronics.com/ before proceeding.
?
I did not have a decent box that would protect the generator in the trip from Fla. to Oregon and back.

Searching the local http://skycraftsurplus.com/ yielded the perfect box, with an interesting history (see photos)

Some dense foam blocks and a chassis shipping cover from a CISCO 6503 router adapted to the task, volia!
