I stopped in to my local rob shop for some antacids and found the guy moaning about the abundance of plastic milk crates outside his store. He practically begged me to take some of them since they were going to fill up his dumpster. Not wanting to look a gift horse in the mouth, I agreed to take a few. I put some of my turning squares in one, burls in another, and some short exotics in third. These things are almost the next best thing to sliced bread! Handy would be an understatement. Alas, when I returned to get more, they were all gone. I guess the word got out pretty quick and a lot of folks use them for storage of all kinds of stuff besides wood. Anyway, they are heavy duty and hold a good bit of stuff. I'm not sure why this store was getting rid of them so I wouldn't suggest helping yourself unless you have permission. However, if you run across a batch of these milk crates, jump on them with both feet, they are right hany in the shop for storage containers!
