Yeah, I asked and then I went looking - it is sold as a "stepping box" for exercise - but it looks to me like a few screws allow you to remove a side, seems like it'd be a great shipping crate. Or take one side off and use it as a schlepping box for your stuff, then flip over and set your amp on?
Home centers or Amazon. That's a 6 gallon crate, square versions are 4 gallon.
As in "holds four one-gallon plastic jugs"?
When I was a teen, we'd back up a pickup and push a whole stack into the back to build drum risers.
Hopefully, Stop and Shop doesn't start using facial recognition or I'm past the statute of limitations for grand theft milk crate!
30” metal stool from your nearby home improvement center. Used one of these with an Ampeg BA-210v2, a Rumble 500c, & a Studio 40 at various times, and never saw any vibration-induced movement on the stool.
Hang the front feet of the amp over the front edge of the cab.
You can find them on Amazon in different sizes. Mine was swiped from a supermarket 40 years ago
This looks pretty close

I decided to go with a couple of heavy duty stackable crates from a local hardware store. They were a little larger, all around, than a regular milk crate. I'm going to cut a piece of the 3/4" plywood to completely support the bottom of the cab. The feet are hanging off and it's something, though minor, I'm not crazy about.

I have used one of these for years. Sturdy and reliable.

First choice- milk crate to put stuff in.
My go to for my Markbass combo- a matching 1-12 cabinet. Plug it in if you’d like. It’s the perfect height.
Using one already, but in tilt up mode. It’s great. My PJ C4 speaker cabinet is the right size and seats nicely.
The handle holes must be aligned with how your speaker cable enters the cab. If using a combo, then disregard.

had one of these for over 20 years. Cannot recommend enough, perfect for a 12 with a head.

Well now, I have a Genz Benz single 12” plus horn(matched to a Shuttle Max 6.0)that gets set on top of the road case it fits perfectly in, wheeled into the joint with other stuff piled up on top.
