WWII K Ration Crate


These are pictures of original K ration crates. The blue print for these will be available shortly.


Thanks to Modeling the US Army in WWII for the period WWII photograph.






This is one of the reproduction crates I patterned from another reproduction. The measurements were off from the original by only a 16th of an inch! Not bad for a copy of a copy of an original one. I have almost completed my original blue prints using an original crate this way there are no errors and everyone gets original measurements. Now you can either nail this together just like the originals... or you can make it so one side is a lid. I prefer the lid since that is useable space going to waste if you crate it completely.
