I have just wanted to write the same: stopped by the Walmart, looking for
Shoe-Goo (they don't have it any longer, for about a month).  In the next
aisle I've spotted those gun cases - starting from $19 (CDN), must be $15 in
the USA.  Looks like 4 ft long, but I didn't measure. It has some semi-soft
foam in walls, and a sheet of hard plastic can be added, if needed.  Also, a
4-piece paddle has some chances to be allowed in carry-on bag - pieces are
too short to be used as a weapon.  Last year they did allow.
