[QUOTE=tomharley;1084650]I finished my trunk on yesterday.
Tom.....did you weld the metal support frame??? Do you think it would be strong enough if aluminum was used there??? Thanks

So I just did this mod yesterday. Turned out real well, took a full sunday, a lot of measuring, remeasuring, recutting, but over all about $50. Instead of the angled rods or steel plates, I just mounted the OSB on top of the hard top mounts around the edges. Will post pics soon.
Any ways, I do have a question if anyone could answer, how do you get rid of the lumber yard smell? I mean I like the smell of cut wood when I'm building, but not all the time. Febreezed and lots of time to air out already. Any ideas?
