http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif Beezer, you should be on that show where they use all the duct tape. The Red Green Show. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

I went to a friend's house once & he was making ravioli. He was stamping out the pasta with a section of plastic cut out of a crate like that one. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

I ate it anyway. ;)

CaddmanQ..I hadn't heard of Red Green show before so I googled it...Here is a clip for the others who haven't heard of it!!

Hey Beezer just wondering why you didn't leave the crate in one piece and tie it down to the seat more storage I know then it wouldn't be a shelf http://s2.images.proboards.com/cheesy.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

Oh yeah does the milk man leave a bunch of crates around your house just saying

If you can steal 6 of them, you can duct tape them onto some wheels and a broom handle and make a fine trailer for your bike. http://s2.images.proboards.com/cool.gif

[basco]

Four on the right side would make a real nifty side car

caddmanQ...lol...that's the other one I watched...he overturns one to flatten it and then duct tapes the 2nd one behind it....too funny!!


BEEZ....I pledge to try not to hijack this thread and will try to ignore others who do!!!! I'm very very very very sorry!!!

apology accepted Sue

What a guy ;)

Don't listen to these other guys...they just wish they had thought about it instead of spending lots of money for the same result!!! I like your shelves!

[basco]

Hey they work just giving the Beez a hard time

Well, at least he won't get that embossed checkerboard pattern on his ass from sitting on the crate.

Not that I've actually seen it you understand....

[beezer]

Hey they work just giving the Beez a hard time

Damn, I wish I would have known that. I just went out and cut them up http://s2.images.proboards.com/cheesy.gif

What a guy ;)

Its a great idea, no matter what they say. But Ive had a few glasses of idea enhancer. ;) ;)

It would be a priviledge and an honor!

we could call ourselves 'Beezers Bozos'

[scott2007nomad]

Now that's my kind of mod!!
I used to catch all kinds of h311 for carrying a crate on the back of my previous bike.

I hope you saved that crate because once this invention takes off it'll be a hot comodity http://s2.images.proboards.com/cool.gif

I hope you guys aren't going to spur a rash of crate hoarding. ::)

[ringadingh]

Ive got 5-6 in stock just in case! ;)

Hey! Great mod. beez, Have another beer on me.

I wondered what "the New and Improved Beezer" was all about. Now I know that he is an inventor struggling for respect. Good thinkin Beez.

[racinchef]

Great mod Beez. Will this work with a bread rack or is a milk crate the only viable raw material. Is this mod your only claim to fame or do you have more tricks up your sleeve?

Perhaps how to convert a oil jug into an aux. fuel tank. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

And all this time I have been just throwing things in the bags willy nilly.

[beezer]

I had the opportunity to really load a shelf up today and it worked flawlessly. Just sayin.......

[fish]

There was quite a gathering and numerous OOOOha and AAAAhs. We had to keep the crowd from taking pictures ;)

[beezer]

Those Palmerton people need jobs fish and they know a good product when they see one. When these suckers catch on I may have to open a fabrication shop and a distribution center there. :)

Maybe you could hire my youngest son. I've been trying to get him a job and a girl friend to get him out of the house, but he won't leave :'(

lol...how old is he Fish?

...Maybe you could hire my youngest son. I've been trying to get him a job and a girl friend to get him out of the house, but he won't leave ...

If he's not trying to get a job and get his own girlfriend, then you've got a serious problem. Get him drunk one night & sign him up for a hitch in the Navy. If there's any hope at all, that'll fix it. ;)

http://s2.images.proboards.com/shocked.gif Damn Cad,
Thats one great lookin idear! You & Beez are always one step ahead of the pack. ::)

??? ??? ??? Maybe a "JOINT" Venture is in order! http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

[ringadingh]

If you used real kegs Im sure me and Beezer would empty them for you. ;)

Huh? Those are real kegs! That's real root beer in 'em too!

The Virgil's keg looks pretty sturdy, has two flanged holes in it for a fitting and a vent, and holds 5 liters.

Unfortunately it will not fit where the goat's belly was, because of the cross pipe of the baggers. I hate to put it on the luggage rack, as it'd cut into my luggage capacity. I'm just not sure where to put it on the bike.

[beezer]

I'll probably wake up about 3AM with an answer for you CQ

That would be oh-dark-thirty on the Left Coast.

We'll probably be awake still!

[ringadingh]

Mount it on the rack behind the backrest.

[beezer]

incorporate it into the

Hey If it works, no one is gonna see it with bags closed, so WTF?

It took me awhile to get back on topic to figure out what you were talking about :-/

[skeeter]

what shelf?

[beezer]

http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

[beezer]

OK, time to fess up, who burnt their local milk company out of a crate?

Not me dude!

(I'm still tryin' to figure out how to make a camping trailer outta this shopping cart I swiped from the grocery store.)
http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh269/caddmannq/SillyPutty/kart.jpg

[ponch]

I like it. Ingenious, frugal, and easy to do. I can only use it on one side though. My rain gear pretty much eats up the capacity of the left bag. I think we should send Beezer beer, and let him dream up some other inventions.

[coacha]

Hey Beezer, will you perform an "shelfectomy" at the next rally if I bring a crate?

[basco]

Hey Beezer did you spend any time at the Down Home ranch they have kids there that make stuff like that http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

[ridemslow]

In all honesty, it sounds like some of you are jellious at Beez for coming up with the idea b4 you did. Any more good useful stuff Beez? I expect promotion royalties if this idea takes off..

[basco]

I think its a great idea I just like giving the Beezster a hard time ;)
