I was after some crates for my sci fi stuff, but a look at the commercially available options reminded me how cheap I am. I realised that if I wanted crates, I'd have to make them myself! And here they are: balsa and cardboard. Fiddly to make, but gloriously inexpensive!
There are a couple of WIP shots on the blog for those interested: link |

They are lovely and nice paint jobs on the figures too. I think I'd probably buy some rather than make them ("time being the fire in which we burn" an' all that) but nice work nevertheless. John T |
