|  My own roof rack and cooler...check this!
Ive always liked those little plastic coolers for a scale build up but i find them too pricey for what they are, IMO. So I decided to see if I could recreate that with common things you can get even at your local Walmart. I found this....  Thats one of those pill holders with the days of the week, primarily used by old people with a lot of medications. It even has a working lid which shuts nice and tightly!! After some simple Dremel work and a bit of paint...you get this...  Easy huh? In case you are wondering about that roof rack. Look closely...thats a stock TLT bumper...but i rearranged the pieces in it to get this cool small but very convenient rack which would look very nice over the small roof pickups usually have. More pics of it...    Now the almost completed look over my TLT. I still need to fabricate some nice elastic cords to complete the scaler....       Hope you like it!! Now go get those pill holders!!  |

Marble floors are not rocks.  Neat little alternative there.
