Any cool stuff to make with these??

I remember someone's wife making a table with these, each one was a different drawer. I picked up this lot and there are a lot of them that are broken and didnt know if anyone had ideas on how to use them. I've seen coat racks, wagons, and chests, but they are sort of Ho hum.
I thought of doing a chair rail in my man town all of the way around if I can't figure out what else to do.

Here's a site where someone turned old soda crates into new stairs and possibly hardwood flooring.

There are a couple of neat ideas in there. Considering my machines aren't aloud in the house, I think it would be my funeral if I tore out the hardwood oak treads and put in coca-cola yellow!!
Maybe if I finish the basement tho!!

Maybe just make storage boxes out of them it would look like a stack of crates and sit them by your machines

I've been trying to figure out some good designs for these for a while now, I generally find myself using them for storage right now, but that's mostly because I don't have my own place to start hammering them into the walls. I've found a few local collections of hundreds of Coke and Cheerwine crates, would be fun to do an accent wall with.

I'm going to try to attach a few pics from my new phone.
I use crates for storing parts. Also, my grandmother bought a few that were made in to birdhouses. When we were clearing out her house my uncle put them in n my truck. They sat a few years in my garage and then I needed some room so I put them out. We had a family of birds in there this spring. .
