Photo from last night:
another busy sunday on the van...
In 12 hours, I turned this:
Into this:
10am - 10pm with about 30 min break over lunch...
went through 7 drill batteries (Between 2 Bosch drills both with spare batteries)
Also used approx 180 Screws and 85kg of MDF...
Total Cost:
Screws - $30
MDF - Free
Foam for lining(Not in pics) $50
everything else - Free.....
Its amazing what some factories just throw out...
