Reuse a Power Tool Case: R/C Battery Charger Case

The R/C battery charger I use for Robot Battles came in a cardboard box that hasn't held up well.  I'd been looking for a better way to store and transport it.

At the last competition, I noticed a couple other teams' solutions.  One team mounted their charger to the inside of an old suitcase, which got me thinking: several of my power tools came in hinged cases, which are just tossed in the corner collecting dust (too much trouble to put the tool away in the case!).  So here is my solution for re-using a DeWalt drill case as an organizer for my battery charger.  The same idea should work for several models of charger and styles of case.
