podmod: Rear Shelf

So far so good, I have the wall anchors in place and moved the pocket thingy down a few inches.  The hardest part, as always, was putting that first hole in the wall.  My shelf is going to be roughly 2/3 the width of the bathroom wall, mostly because I already have a scrap piece of plywood that is cut to that width with straight edges and a decent finish.  I thought about going all the way but I'm worried about bumping my head when I sit up if I do.  I'm going to rip strips of plywood to mount to the wall anchors, I used 1" anchors and kept the original screws which leaves me with about 1/2" of throw when they are all the way out.  Using 1/4" plywood and possibly countersinking a little I should be fine.  I'll probably use finishing nails to secure the shelf floor to the anchored strips.

I ran out of time because I also had to mow the lawn tonight, I'm not sure I'll have time until Saturday to finish it.  But, thanks to Outbound for the kick in the butt to finally get this done.  I've only wanted this since I bought my 'pod almost 2 years ago.
