Re: My First JLC Contribution

Between your article and another work vehicle I saw last week, I picked up a couple of very useful ideas to incorporate into my trailer.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, I'm even quoted in the November FHB (#206) in the Breaktime column as an expert on framing, which is kinda funny. I've got a full page in the next FHB issue (#207--Kitchen and Bath issue, Great Ideas). More stuff you've probably already seen though.

Cheers,

Bass

This was a cabinet delivery truck that had horizontal wood slats on the interior sides. This guy had made a number of MDF box/hangers that hung on the slats. He used them for small parts, screws, etc. They could be lifted off of the rail and moved to the work station.

I have yet to see him and his "tools" fold out of a center fold.
