    Empty Wooden Ammo Crates – Other Uses

    I have some empty wooden ammunition boxes and was wondering what I could use them for. What other uses have others found for these types of crates?

    a reloading bench from these would be awesome. You'll need more of 'em though.

          sell them?
          End tables?
          Coffee tables?
          Keep them like that for art?
          Display stuff on them in your house?

              donate them to a local gun shop for decoration if they have the room for them.

                Mount them to the wall to use as shelving. Maybe you can use the lid as a divider.

                  Sell them to me... I really want to make an end table to hold a lamp in my office.

                    tool boxes

                    My father-in-law used the large surplus ammo crates for his tools in the garage. had one for plumbing tools and one for electric saws. Looked cool and was easy to throw in the truck for jobs.

                      The best use I can think of would be to donate them to HK CHEF.. Yeah that's a good idea. But yes if you have kids they are good for toys. Would also make for nice change collectors.

                          Use them as tinder for a fire... Wood is great for burning. It's really dry.

                              If you had open ended ones (removable sides), they made great "field crappers", but these are not open ended...

                              Stack them up in front of the most logical (illegal) entry point for a burglar to fall over/stumble over when breaking in?
                              I mean decoration...

                              They'd make a GREAT hard surface base for using with a bullet puller.
