Armor Totes 101

Wonderful information that I’ll definitely have to come back to later. Right now I have half my armour in a smaller bin and the rest scattered around it

One thing I cannot stress enough, add some lights to the underside of your lid. HCS 24 this year we had minimal to zero backstage lighting, which meant going through crates by cellphone light or flashlights. A strip of cheap LED lighting with a battery pack is more than sufficient to illuminate the crate.

For my crate, I'm using a 63gal rolling Stanley crate. Its massively oversized for airplanes, but it suffices for transport by truck. I'm able to fit my entire ODST suit in here, including helmet and my shotgun. Collapsible handle, wheels, waterproof gasket, I'm pretty happy with it. Gonna be adding a few more graphics on the outside and an info card inside...

This is such a good idea! I hadn't though of that

How do you guys determine what numbers/letters go on the bin? Is it the markings of the armor or just random things that look cool?

Some of it is design, while the S-### is your 405th deployment number. Once you deploy your first suit of armor you will get a deployment number. In Skid’s case his designation is S-728.

That is awesome. Thanks for the clarification!
