    Cody I do the same as you except I add a 12"x12" piece of 1/2" or 3/4" plywood to the inside bottom of the milk crate, if you are on grass or slightly unlevel surface the tubes will bounce out when they fire. With the plywood in the bottom I've never had this happen. 👍👍 P.S. when you get to 1 million subs I will help you get canister shells.

    I usually just run them over a table saw and take about an inch off of two opposing edges, then build them into a wooden rack. Smacking off the base can mess with the integrity of the plug and milk crates sometimes cause mortars to 'trampoline'. I'm with you though...... if its for free..... it's for me
