Coming soon: White paper on Crate

I'm working on a White Paper to construct a simple crate from basic stuff from Home Depot/Lowes/etc.

I'd like to get input from anyone on this topic. This will be a simple plywood crate with an emphasis on quick, easy construction, toolless crating/uncrating (e.g. at the event), and two options: either the crate can be stored in pieces (takes little space) or you can even add a few hinges to make crating/uncrating easier. The crate is also light enough to stay under the 400 pound limit.

I know fancy crates are great, but everyone please take note that this is going to be one for a low budget team or a team that doesn't want to bother designing a crate in addition to their robot. Share those fancy designs in another thread please
