After talking extensively to several NC and SC State Patrol persons as to the legality of a front bumper tool box; my solution to a mudroom/store all sorts of messiness was to get my welder son to weld brackets to the front bumper then attach a pickup tool box.
Outdoor carpet, chairs, Wellies, table, etc goes in that. Stays dry and locks.
As for the front door; of course I have a real locking door and beaded curtain too!
Never heard an American use the term "wellies". Nice!
This followed me home today. Not a big deal, but I'm gonna build some furniture for the house to get some practice for the future bus.
You made the right choice, friend. I love my Kreg jig, and if there were one tool for bus conversions that isn't an obvious choice....it's the Kreg. It's dead simple to use and makes strong joints quickly. You won't be disappointed.
And a quality wood-glue bead will make that joint about 2-3 times stronger....the wood will actually separate before the glue does.
My dad is a retired marine carpenter, built frames and interiors for $$,$$$,$$$ yachts, and he advised the same. Also, he lives ten minutes away and I will be picking his brain and tool collection extensively once the build kicks off.
