BEFORE: Do you really want to show up with containers you shouldn't even bring into camp? |
AFTER: |
All of the crates we sell are accurate copies of original WWII German crates we've personally collected. Panzerwerks crates have period-correct, German manufactured latches, recently located in Europe. The original paper labels from our collection have been digitally scanned, professionally restored and accurately reprinted (will not smear when wet).
Panzerwerks WWII German crates were created primarily for reenactors. Too often at events we see truck loads of plastic totes in camp spoiling the period correctness of the experience. Original crates can be found but they are, frankly, too worn for usage. When equipment and supplies arrived at the front lines in WWII, it sure didn't come in 70 year-old boxes!
Ideally, you should be able to store all your uniforms, gear and equipment in these period correct crates. As an added benefit, they do double duty by not only storing your gear and personnel items in a safe, sturdy container, but they also make a very authentic and useful "prop" in camp.
Randy's Rant:
I have remained silent long enough. Let's face it guys, we've all been giving each other a pass on folding chairs for years now. Were chairs issued to Grenadiers in combat? I think not; and if so, how were they carried? Chairs should be the exception in camp, not the rule. We offer several different size crates that add realism to any camp or "war room." Chairs detract from autheticity, and add no value. They literally become a burden because they can't do double duty like a crate can (see above photo)!
