Here's a solution:

I already posted that solution yesterday, Doug, noting that it was on
half-price sale. I wish I'd bought one of those instead of the pickup
crane (which I still haven't taken out of the box.)

I DID just get the fuming box glued up a few minutes ago, though. It's
5' wide by 3' tall and 2' deep, made from some stunning birdseye SPF
tubatwos and onebuhtwos. Ourghta be about big enough, huh? I'll fold
in one side of the plastic (and not trim it) so I can stick longer
boards in and still be able to seal it when I make the G&G couch...
unless I make it out of jarrah.
