How do you carry your microphones?
« on: December 14, 2004, 11:09:07 AM »
I'm looking for a better solution than spending $25 or more on the Pelican 1060 with the pick and pluck foam to carry AKG 480's.
I had a nice wooden box with pleather on the outside to carry my Josephsons. Does anyone know of a good cheap option? I've heard of some folks using tooth brush tubes...

I got this wooden cd case at walmart.  It is the perfect size.  Just cut some foam, and I'm good to go.  The box is pretty thin, and it costs lik $7
