Looking for some affordable crates and containers that look like they've been around the galaxy a few times? Is your table missing some much needed cover? Do you need some extra cover for your Necromunda game? I have recently created a set that can be printed on card stock (or ordered on card stock), so that you can populate your games with much needed cover.

There is some pretty stiff free competition in the cargo container market.

and more at the Infinity Arcology resources thread:

But if RPG Now decided to precut the card stock, that would be really convenient. The automatic cutter is a really niche device that's really nice if you're doing a lot of papercraft, but it's hard to justify if you're only doing a few crates.

Yeah, I wish they pre-cut things, and offered heavier stock. While I believe it is 110 weight, with gloss finish, having something more akin to boardgame quality cardboard would rock.

Thanks for showing me the competition, some of those look pretty nice. I've seen a few of them before, hence why I added a bunch of smaller crates to the pack, to hopefully make it worth the cash.

I also recall seeing a few containers at a FLGS, and one of the complaints was that the larger containers tended to collapse under the weight of a few metal minis. Hence why I threw in an "internal support" to cut out to strengthen the container and prevent having chipped paint or bent metal.

I have two suggestions, if I may. because I think your product isn't being presented in the best light it could be:
1. Put pictures of your assembled crates on the cover image.
2. Update the description for the relative sizes of the crates.

When I looked at the preview image, that didn't really show off the product.

Thanks for the idea. I currently have a few customers taking pictures of the assembled products, and I'll be posting them as soon as I receive them.

I would have them already, unfortunately lack of a suitable camera prevented such.
