Abstract: A pallet having a pallet deck which is formed from at least two pallet deck members, each of which has finger elements die-cut therein at each leg attachment point. The pallet legs are formed from tubular outer and inner leg elements, and are attached to both pallet deck members by stacking them atop one another and forcibly urging the finger elements on both pallet deck members within the annulus between the nested outer and inner leg elements. With this construction, the pallet deck is increased in strength since two pallet deck members are utilized and the pallet legs have greater strength and are less subject to damage from sideways forces parallel to the pallet applied to them since they are attached to the pallet by the finger elements die-cut in both of the pallet deck members.

Abstract: An improved transfer storage carton having complimentary fastening means affixed to each of the respective end flaps and to at least one of the top flaps which are folded in overlapped relationship atop the open compartment of the carton in conventional fashion to effectively close and seal the carton. In this respect, it is preferred to use complimentary fasteners of the type sold under the trademark "VELCRO" by Velcro Corp. The complimentary fasteners are fixed to and carried by clips which are generally u-shaped in configuration. These clips are extended through slots formed in the end and top flaps to secure the fasteners to the flaps. In addition, one side flap is formed to expose the complimentary fasteners secured to the end flaps when the side flap is folded to overlie the end flaps so that the complimentary fastener affixed to the other one of the side flaps automatically lockingly engage to seal shut the carton.
