    Good stuff right there Stig,I really think the umbrella design is super practical for both hiding your abilities to wandering eyes and practical storage.if all else fails,you still have an umbrella lol

    Thanks so much for all the information Stig, and thank you Mr. T for hunting it down. Mr. Jamesneuen, put another pot of coffee on, it looks like it might be an allnighter again. I'll get the donuts. Chocolate glazed OK?

    I'm pretty sure I have more info, I'll do some digging later... but yeah this was a great post by Stig!

    I have plans drawn up for a nestled polished stainless interior, with a steel exterior with a 2" insulated space between. about a 2 foot box, with an adjustable lid that pivots to catch the sun... which flash drive is it on...

    lol

    A lit of these designs are what I based my rough sketch on. The problem is constructing it at the moment while being broken.

    Just black and white words on a screen.
    Not like a conversation in person, with facial expressions, body language, tone of voice.

    Still, we here pretty much slide along without issues.
    Imagine how well we could get along in person.

    Or, we would just think each other is a bunch of assholes
