Another mission accomplished that’s been driving me utterly nuts. I made a barrier (out of particle board and 2x4s) to stick in the bed of the truck so that stuff (groceries, etc.) that I put in the bed doesn’t go sliding up front when I make a sudden stop, causing me to have to crawl into the thing to retrieve them. (The truck has a camper shell so I can’t just grab stuff out of the front of the bed.)
This also involved me going out and getting my first power saw, a Ryobi corded circular saw (commonly called a SkillSaw).
