When I went to the UK from Germany I took a MOC (a house) and I made it into
levels. I separated the levels and shoved small clothing items inside them and
then placed that lot into a bag (so if parts come off, it is in the bag and not
the whole suitcase. For me, with only 1 brick thick walls, this was perfect, I
did a fairly good job though :P but on the way back I didn't take as much
caution and well, I got what I put into it I guess... parts everywhere :( -
Tight and sturdy works rather well... I filled in pretty much most gaps with
socks and other 'smalls' ;) I will definately use this technique again, it also
saved space :D
P.S. Glad you all had a great time!
