Placeholder for 2–3 understated resource links to be developed by Amanda:

How to choose the right wooden crate size
This is the strongest candidate. The collection asks the customer to choose among sizes, so uncertainty about dimensions is probably the biggest obstacle. It can explain interior vs. exterior dimensions, clearance, how to measure the contents, when extra space is desirable, and how lids affect usable space. It could eventually become a core Reference/Decision Guide used across multiple collections.
Open slat vs. solid side wooden crates
This catches someone who may have reached the right general product category but isn't certain about the style. It can explain the practical differences—appearance, visibility of contents, presentation, containment, weight/material use, typical applications, and when Carpenter Core tends to recommend each. This would create a natural two-way connection between the Open Slat and Solid Side collections.
Standard size or custom wooden crate?
This is essentially the Custom vs. Stock Wooden Crates Decision Guide Amanda is already working on, so I would not create another resource. I would use that existing project here. It answers the important question: Should I pick the closest size on this page, or should Carpenter Core make exactly what I need?
