Here is how I have it set up to drill the screws to attack the platform and the stand.

Wood - $30
Burritos - $ 10
Never having to worry about storage - Priceless

Lol that's that's funny, you should send that in.

And thanks for the complements guys, I'm very happy with it. I'm actually gonna bedline it tomorrow cuz I did a test piece and it came out fine despite the cold. I'll post pics of that tomorrow.

And now it is completely finished. I used dupli-color bed line paint to spray it with and loved it! It dried fast and I didn't have to sand or prime the wood, I just wiped of the dust and sprayed it. Hope you guys like it.

I envy you... lol

And thanks, yea I'm really happy with it. The only problem is that it still smells like spray paint in there so its like I'm getting high every time I drive lol. So I just roll the back windows down and crank the heat!

I figured $10 for a bunch of burritos for 2 people is more than fair.
Even around here chipotle feeds for $6.

I would have put carpet and enclosed the box. Then I could take it out if needed.
