Made this to take some frags to my LFS yesterday.
Cheap plastic box with lid from ASDA. Your Walmart.
Bit of egg crate.
Some plastic tube.
I cut 4 short tube lengths then cut a + in the ends of each and superglued then in.
The box I used isnt water tight used a piece if packing foam to fit snugly in the box to prevent water splashing around and dripping out the top. Cost me about $4.

Apart from the box I bought the glue which I already had the rest is scrap eggcrate and tube. You can buy water tight boxes with carrying handles but they cost more.
