Sweet Old Make Do Wood and Baking Pan Divided Carrying Caddy vintage wooden crate unevenly placed super fat hand-forgedA sweet example of make do innovation, the likes of which I've never seen before an old heavy tin baking pan turned into divided carrying caddy through the addition of four pieces of wood and some nails. I'd guess used by a handyman (or just a handy man) for hardware, and definitely it was well used, with a few nails added here and there to shore up a few splits in the wood of the handle divider long ago. 9 5 8" x 5 1 2" x 4 3 8" t. Great old patina,
