Unhappily need to temporally pack and store these two Malcolm masterpieces. 

For the uninitiated Malcolm ships these packed to the hilt.  Each cab is wrapped in layers then placed in respective sized storage contains ( in these cases 6qt Sterilite.   There is no way to replicate this for easy packing and unpacking.  So determined that there was rome enough for both cabs in one contain if properly done.  Cut a trapezoidal piece of hobby wood to divide the space longitudinally  in half.  Added a spacer on the top edge to prevent the lip from being able to press/crush down on cab and particularly the smoke jacks.  Using spray adhesive covered both sides with a thin piece of smooth high density foam had laying around.  Also cut a piece of this foam for the bottom.  Then rolled and cut bubble wrap for end and lateral padding.

Now have a safe and convenient easy storage solution. 

Oh, since these containers are stackable slipped this one down into the other one adding to strength.  Will glue tops together for strength also when think of a suitable glue that will allow separation.
