Approximate interior dimensions: 14' long, 48" wide, 32" deep.  Solidly built, has steel hard-points for lifting, and large casters (easily removable) so it can be wheeled around easily.

This crate was given to me for free, so I'm passing it along to the next builder for free.

The crate is located in my hangar at Bourland Field (a residential airpark in Cresson, TX) which is about 20 minutes southwest of Fort Worth.

Nice things about using a crate like this:

  • Save on crating fees and shipping charges.
  • Way less likelihood of damage during shipping by people who's only desire is to get stuff into/out of trucks with as much other stuff as possible as fast as they can (I'm a former shipping industry guy - this is HUGE).
  • The crate is a great place for you to store everything once you get it home.
  • Cheaper to just rent a trailer locally, and drive there and back (versus renting a gas-hungry UHaul truck).
  • Don't have to hurry up and unpack a rental truck when you get home - can keep the big pieces in the crate (and protected).
  • Gives you a chance to take a "vacation" and visit the Zenith factory.
  • It's Free.

What size trailer is it sitting on? 

That’s not my trailer, but it looks like it’s 14 feet (not including the front section).  When I got the crate from the previous owner I rented a 16 foot trailer as I recall.
