    It's the bottom side of a home made Vacuum table.

    1) It's a portable counter top, you place it on top of cast iron tables to prevent your friends from putting cold drinks on them, and leaving rust rings.

    2) It's one of those things my father was always making, "Something to make you ask questions".

    3) It's a landing pad for the T.A.R.D.I.S.

    Regards, Rod.

    The entrance to your under-the-driveway tornado shelter?

    It's a slab of concrete that wouldn't look so ugly, if you'd pick up that piece of pretend wood.

    Patch a hole in your shop wall, place a funnel. No more running in the house so often.

    I just blew coffee out my nose.

    I'm not sure what it is but at this point I doubt it is as interesting as its being made out to be.

    ugly bottom.jpgugly w IR.jpg

    LOL! Ok, ok, I can take a hint.
    I hope this isn't too anticlimactic

    I struggled with getting the middle seats from the van from the driveway - up the walk - and into the living room whenever I needed to take them out to fit sheet oods in the van. I saw a reader's tip in one of the WW'ing magazines for an extension base for a two wheeler that fit what I needed to a T. I happened to have this cutoff of a door laying around, some left over contact cement and some other scrap, so I tossed it together.
    It's not heavy duty by any stretch - but - neither is the two wheeler.
    The bottom shot of it shows the section of 3/4" ply that the plate of the two wheeler slips into. That keeps the base from tipping forward when tilted back.

    What surprised me somewhat is the amount of use I've gotten out of it. It makes hauling garbage cans to the curb - or the ones loades with wood scraps to the fire pit in the backyard - a breeze.

    Rats! That was my next guess.

    A little anticlimactic but a great idea.
