Last year, I determined that it had to travel in the cab with me because dust and water gets into the truck bed, even with the canopy. Soon as I got it in the truck, I realised that it was taking a lot of precious cab space because I couldn&#8217;t really store anything on top of it, not even a bag of bedding. I thought that it might be nice to have a shelf over it, but was not in a position to build anything.<\/p>\n<p>Even if my tools and materials hadn&#8217;t been scattered to the winds last year, I didn&#8217;t have a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.raecrothers.ca\/blog\/a-workshop-and-gardening-shed\/\">workshop<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.raecrothers.ca\/blog\/a-workshop-and-gardening-shed\/\">tools<\/a> with which to easily knock out a project like this. Today, it took just 30 minutes, including the design and cleanup phases, to build this:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.raecrothers.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMGP2475.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-4027\" src=\"http:\/\/www.raecrothers.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMGP2475-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"IMGP2475\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.raecrothers.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMGP2475-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.raecrothers.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMGP2475-619x464.jpg 619w, http:\/\/www.raecrothers.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMGP2475.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So now, the printer can sit behind the passenger seat and I can put a tote or my suitcase over it. I can store\u00a0two totes on the driver&#8217;s side and in the middle, too, if I run out of space in the back. But I&#8217;m not bringing the cot for this trip, so I suspect that cab space won&#8217;t be as precious as it was last year. It&#8217;ll still be nice to know that I can toss things behind me and not risk damaging the printer!<\/p>\n<p>I have to say that my once disgusting shed is quickly turning into my most favourite part of my property. I just love how bright it is in there and how fresh it smells, never mind that it is so full of potential!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The printer is rather a pain in the arse item to drag along with me to Mexico, but it&#8217;s necessary for work that I do for one of my clients.
