Recent conversations about touchup boxes
prompted me to take a few pictures of what I use.

I found an old brief case at a garage sale and
carefully removed all of the aluminum trim and
other hardware from it.

I then constructed the kit shown so that
the trim would help protect the edges and corners.

I glued on some naughyde and attached it to a
suitcase dolly (also found at a garage sale).
I made the box out of 1/2" plywood with 1/4" dividers
in an effort to keep the weight down.

The aluminum shiny object in front of the closed kit
is the top off of a cake pan. It's about a 1/2" deep
and is used to prevent accidents or should I say
"to contain accidents".

I don't do a lot of touchups but so far this has worked for me.
