@okierider requested that I post pics of this. So here it is.
It started out as a US Amy tent crate. It started out in Fort Sill, went to Afghanistan where it got damaged and then a GI there used it to ship his stuff home in. I then got it from him, gutted it out and repaired the broken corner.
Once I had a nice blank slate I added a couple of shelves and the racks. I made a base for it so it could stand upright. Then I painted them to match and hit the outside with an OD green stain to "clean it up" yet retain the worn look and the well earned scars from service.
Here is the result.
