hey everyone, a few months ago i saw a video of a truck hauling a little cardboard Caterpillar box and I thought, how cool!
I work for a Cat dealership and i immediately told the guys at work to save the boxes we all normally throw out. It didnt take long to gather quite a few various boxes. I now have way more than i need and before i throw them into the cardboard recycle bin I thought, maybe someone would like some? Free of charge, just cover shipping. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() the size fits the standard tamiya deck width real nice. anyone interested send me a PM. the boxes can be folded up for small cheap shipping cost. I plan on filling the ones i keep with spray foam insulation to give more densityand strenght also glue the ends shut. mario sorry Mods, i figured this was the best place to post??

PM sent, those are ~so~ neat.
You could also cut blocks of blue-foam insulation to stiffen then. A 4x8 sheet is dirt cheap, or hit the dumpster at a construction site for scraps. WhiteWolf |

![]() ![]() ![]() This is not a fire sale , if enough people are interested, the supply of various boxes is endless. It took about 3 weeks to collect what is in the pics.Once these are gone I will let ya know when another batch is ready ![]() Mario. |

![]() heres a few more pics of boxes on pallets. Thanks Dwayne ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Now just so everyone is aware.... there is a ugly sticker on these boxes! with proper positioning you can hide it or the sticker can be removed. you just have to figure out a way to get the glue that always stays behind off ![]() ![]() I use margarine, it works well. ![]() they also fit great inside the crates ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I can mail in a simple brown envelope for no more than postage I figure. ![]() Thanks for looking. mario |

Depends on the adhesive.
I try my alcohol medical wipes first, and if the stuff is still resistant, and the material can take it, I resort to lighter fluid (yellow plastic bottle Ronson stuff) in the dried out alky-wipe pads. Considering this is cardboard, I'd try lifting the labels with hot air from a hair dryer, or a heat gun if the dryer isn't enough. Then go at the residue with the solvents. WhiteWolf |
