When working in large classes at Northern Clay we stored our clay and equipment on open shelves. Sometimes things would get "lost" from the shelves. I also did not want to have a second set of tools in the small studio I had at home. I found a collapsible wheeled milk crate with a telescoping handle at Office Max. This was perfect for transporting clay and tools in Continental clay boxes stacked in the crate. It fit in the trunk of the car. I lifted it out, set it on the ground and wheeled it into class. Before long these wheeled crates were a very common sight around Northern Clay.

My tools walked many a time from the clay studio at Indiana University
Southeast. That was when I cleaned my tools before I put them up. For some
reason, when I left them dirty they forgot how to grow legs ;)
