My crate is a yellow fiberglass thing from Bordens,( 4 gallon box) in Beaumont Tx, 1962. I have a wooden Lucerne crate from 54,( 6 gallon box) too, but havent decided what to do with it. I think it would make a great box on the back of a bike,, hafta build a lid outta aluminum I guess,, anyway, anyone can Buy a mass produced "cool" HD knockoff stool for the shop, but savin that $$$ & building something that works great out of something found & "Re Purposed" is what a guy like me calls cool,. But then, my handle back in the CB days was Alleyrat, cuz I would drive thru the alleys lookin for things people tossed that I could do something with, A couple of years ago, I picked up some stainless steel that was layin in a ditch after someone ran thru a fence. It had been tied into the fence as a reflector, because it was a T intersection. I guess it didnt work well enough,,anyway, I built a charcoal starter chimney out of it, The ones at Lowes rust out in a year, this ones lookin like its gonna outlast me,
