Re: What makes a good pit?
For short events or events where bringing a trailer is difficult, I prefer to keep it so everything can fit into the trunk of a full-size sedan and a minivan, SUV, or truck bed. The stuff we bring must fit this requirement. This means taking a lot of those large plastic crates we receive in the KOP. This makes transport super painless. We handle all of our off-seasons this way (5-6/year)
For multiple-day events where we are bringing a trailer along, wheeling everything in pre-organized can be handy for the toolbox and some storage. We try to keep everything flexible though, in case we get a corner pit. Stacked shipping crates usually become extra tables and store probably-won't-need-it-but-just-in-case spare parts in odd otherwise-empty holes under the provided table, etc.
We also use foam flooring for in-season events.
