redid my van and made it more festool friendly

[honeydoman]

spent the day cleaning out my van, and made a small cabinet to hold all the #1 that I have and made room for all the other systainers, well not all that I have, just some of the ones I carry in my van.  and the mft etc.  thought you all would enjoy seeing pictures.

Kreg,

Not only the king of beadboard but also of organization.

You have embarrased and motivated me.  I have a 5 x 10 wedge nose trailer in desperate need of organizational help as well as the back of my pickup with a cap.  I'll take your inspiration and move towards organization nirvana.

Sorry I haven't gotten back to you on your most generous offer, but things have come up.  I will and I have what I think will be a neat idea that will help all Foggers.

FOGGERS:  KREG IS A CLASS ACT.

A couple of your dogs sleeping in there should deter any would be thiefs.  (I thought you were the one with all the dogs.)

That is a very nice and organized setup that you have there in your van. Would you say that the total value of the contents of your van nears or exceeds the actual value of the van itself?

I also see that you have a Kreg jig there. Any of your customers make a connection with the jig and your name? Or, are most of your customers clueless to that sort of thing?

Well done!

It almost makes me want to go out and buy a van.  I know that I would certainly enjoy building racks, etc. to organize it for my tools.  

But, my wife would not like driving a van and we are a one vehicle family.  So, I can only dream.

very few have made the connection of the kreg jig and my name.  I had some left over formica that I put on that piece of wood that the jig is screwed to.  I have about 50gran in tools, shop stuff etc.  that van is less than 1 year old.  but I am sure the tools and the value of the van are getting very close in value.  shoot better go out and buy some more tools... I see I have an empty spot....
