I like your containers for trash and recycling. We usually have plastic bags that get stashed in the back of the truck. Your shelves look neat. I just completed a couple of things - need to get photos out...

My recent additions: Half-way through installing a rear shelf, as Outbound did here. I used strips of plywood for supports. They look a little crooked here but the top edges are basically level. Here with the shelf in place. My goal was "functional" and not "pretty" yet, since I have two trips in the next two weeks. Pretty will have to come later with some trim on the front and stain. I notched the inside corner, there is an outlet at the edge of the bed and this will let me run an extension cord directly up to the shelf. I also added a shelf up front. I have an old entertainment center that I was going to trash soon, by chance the finish on it almost perfectly matches the 'pod, and also by chance one of the shelves fit this spot without modification. I cut pieces off another shelf to make the supports. I had curtains made a month or so ago, the mini blinds that came with the 'pod didn't block much light and made lots of noise when I kicked them in the middle of the night. So they were gone after the first trip. I found material that went well with the existing material on the header. I also purchased black vinyl material which I had incorporated as a middle layer to make them completely light-proof. It is now very, very dark no matter how bright it is outside. We like to sleep in! A final addition, three tubs. One for shoes, one for trash, one for recyclables. For a while we allowed shoes inside but there was always a huge pile in front of the door. So we banished them outside but didn't have a good solution if it rained. Now we do. We also used to tie a trash bag to the door stop outside and put a collapsible container next to it for recyclables. This should be neater. |

Snowbound, where did you find that beautiful "backsplash?"

Actually, that was very clever of you! And you saved yourself a whole lot of time and work.

Sounds like a nice simple solution. Counter space, however you get it, is really a useful addition to the Pod.

I wanted to make a stove cover like other podders have done but I came upon an easier solution when walking through WalMart. I purchased a wooden 16x20 galley tray with 2" sides, flipped it over to cover the stove and added a cutting board. Works for me.

You can go into the "Post Options" to the upper-right of your post and edit it if you want.

I don't know what happened. I was resizing the picture and suddenly it posted.
I made corrections as you suggested. Thanks.
