small builds

Glenn left behind, among lots of other stuff, two folding wooden stools.  One was painted black, the other unpainted wood.  I have been moving them around from place to place for years.  They became the next small build project.  Extremely small.  Here are the results.

I cut 1x2s to fit and mounted them.  Pretty simple.  Good for camping?  For now, they’re holding my plants in the front room.  Pictures later.

The idea is to have portable power.  I found some mounting brackets at Home Depot and used them to mount a 110-Watt panel to the roof racks of the Chrysler van. 

First, drill holes in the frame. 

Next, make sure they physically line up. 

Voila. 

Now I can add a controller, deep-cycle (RV) batteries, and an inverter to create 120VAC.
