Milk crates are usually made from polyethylene terephthalate.

You don't need a fancy-smancy aluminum rig, all you need is a bit of wood and some nails. Milk crates are fine too, if you're having an issue you can always cut some holes in them.

With the large 3D-printing and BTC community crossover, I'm surprised I've never seen anyone selling printed cases/benches. Are the plastics too soft? -Or would it be cost-prohibitive? (3D printing newb)

I think with the current high cost of plastic filament building something that was sturdy would not be cost effective.
If i had access to one I would defiantly try it though ...

I built mine from this guide, the links are all way expensive but you can find cheaper versions of all the stuff.
