Hi All!

We have gone to 2 invitationals and our tower has yet to make it to the competition without needing a little repair before competition. I'm glad we always bring our tools:-)

I'm thinking about building a box to protect the tower. We transport it on our 3d printed jig, so it has support, but brushing against other things or bumps in the road have caused damage.

Any tried and true box designs?

Thanks! Sara Cupp

We just use big plastic tubs from Target or Walmart. Transport the jig separately, towers are too delicate. Many teams cover their boxes for privacy. It’s also helpful because comps often happen in rainy weather so the big plastic tubs are protective.
