Wow ... This turned out to be a great(and fun) discussion topic. For a while there, I was starting to feel bad about no longer having a truck ... but it's comforting to know I'm not the ONLY one out there. I suppose it doesn't make me any less of a truckless outcast -but in the grand scheme of...

WOW ... That's just plain NUTS :Freak:

I HATE mine and wish boils and scars upon them ... 'nuff said :evil:

Well, some of us ... well, maybe just me ... are still within the "beginner level" of DIY projects and woodworking, so we have to work with what we have available to us at the moment. :dunno: Again, for the record, I did have a 2000 Chevy S10 pickup truck that was given to us by a friend of my...

Pity Lowes doesn't accept HF discount coupons like many Home Depots seem to (hit or miss, I know).

Sans incurring the additional expense of purchasing a trailer and/or making any modifications to my car ... perhaps I might just try using my friend who has an SUV with a top rack when the time comes to purchase my sheets of wood. I may still look into the removable top rack idea .... but in...

Personally, like many here, I do not think 36" is too deep. I built a 48" x 36" workbench (using the 2x4 Basics workbench leg kit) and I use it as both a workbench and an assembly table. In fact, mine looks almost identical to THIS GUY'S BENCH - including my decision to use 2x6's for the...

I instantly thought the EXACT SAME THING when I saw the pic. :lol:

What kind of joinery did you use for the cabinet?

Now THAT is an interesting idea, I only wonder how much my 3.5' x 8' 3 tier 2x4 Basics bench weighs ... let alone with stuff on/in it. Hmmmmm . . . . :headscrat

Anyone ?? Anyone ?? Bueller ?? Bueller ?? :dunno:

Had a pickup truck .... it has since passed away. :(

Okay, tell your brother we'll all be calling him this weekend for use of his truck :lol_hitti

Starting to give more thought to the roof rack idea - not too expensive at, say, WalMart. Removable too. This for the older TOYOTA, of course. :cool:

That may be the route to go for me - as I am not bringing home 4x8 sheets of wood every weekend. Maybe once every two months or so.

At the moment, I have a Toyota Camry. :3gears: I don't believe the wife would appreciate my towing sheet wood with the BMW.

Right, and I have done that several times. Sometimes though, one does need to bring a bigger sheet home to cut out certain pattern parts and such - that aren't easily accomplished (or even possible) with their panel saw.

Right ... That I know about - and I suppose is a viable option. Are you referring to something like this? --> http://www.harborfreight.com/870-lb-capacity-40-inch-x-49-inch-heavy-duty-utility-trailer-with-8-inch-wheels-and-tires-42708.html

For the record ... I DO NOT, nor will I EVER, own or drive the oxymoron that is a "SmartCar" :deathmeta

Used to have a pickup truck ... don't no more (engine shot - RIP). :( So I'm wondering how those of you without the benefit of a truck get your large sheet plywood or MDF home from the lumber yard/store. - Do you try to find a friend with a truck? - Do you rent a pickup truck for a few...
