I recently purchased a second hand Meade ETX125. Unfortunately it came without a case to safely store and transport it in.
I went on a search for an appropriate case and ended up buying a mobile tool box from
Keter in a local DIY store.
It jus barely fits my telescope. But as it is lacking some padding I purchased some hard insulation, pipe insulation and sound insulation. After going to work with some scissors, box cutters and spay glue I ended up with an already pretty decent housing for my freshly bought telescope.

The end result with some sound insulation for further padding and a more 'classy' look |
I might give this a spin and see if I can later on add some small storage for the GoTo controller, manuals, eye pieces, ...
