El Caminos have a hidden compartment under the bed behind the cab which is normally covered by the bed panels. A terrible waste of space. I asked Bill Miller of Costa Mesa (now he's in Arizona) to fix this space up so I could store a toolbox and the battery in there, and access the space easily. He started by fabricating a steel central support and a steel frame for the cover.

There were some design changes and a broken drill bit but everyone was pleased with the results.

I actually already have a purple toolbox with tools. It's different though. Maybe I'll put one in my car.

There was a lot of makeup in this toolbox.

My husband bought a great big rolling tool box for the shop a couple of weeks ago. It is very pretty. I have stolen it for my kitchen because it is too wonderful for the nasty auto shop and needs to be where it can be appreciated.

«When you don't want to stop, because stopping means start to thinking, one of the best ways to keep Really Busy is start reorganizing a room (the complete room, starting with the furniture).

I'm very tired, but the combination of manual work and mental activity has helped me to spend the great part of this hard day.»
