Background:

In the thread:  http://festoolownersgroup.com/festool-jigs-tool-enhancements/template-for-attachments-to-the-lid-of-a-t-loc-systainer/  , I showed how to make an attachment to secure to the lid of a T-loc systainer.

Towards the end of the  thread: http://festoolownersgroup.com/fun-games-diversions/enter-to-win-a-rotex-ro-90-dx-or-workcenter-wcr-1000!/90/  in reply #95, I posted a picture of a removable clipboard that I made to fit onto the lid of my granddaughter Isla’s T-loc systainer thoat she is using as her jewellery making “factory”.

Today, I designed a different clipboard for in the “office/computer/camera use” systainer that I am in the process of transferring from a classic systainer 3 to a T-loc systainer 2.  The tread: http://festoolownersgroup.com/festool-jigs-tool-enhancements/carry-on-systainer-for-officecomputercamera-use/ describes the customization of the old systainer.

Both clipboards and lid bases are made with Baltic Birch plywood.

Here are two photos of clipboard #1 (the one in Isla’s systainer):

 
     
The  clipboard is held to the lid with two big squares of  Velcro tape.  The clip was purchased from Lee Valley.

Here are two photos of clipboard #2 (the one in my systainer)

 
           
The clipboard slides  into a groove in the sides and the bottom and there is storage behind the board for pads of paper, catalogues, pens, whatever.  The clip was purchased from Rockler.
