Yes - I from Boksburg are...

[Dodging]

... and here everything gets modified. It doesn't matter if it's a brand new car, an umbrella, hell even a box of matches. Here in Boksburg the ingenious (let's rather say interesting) locals find incredible ways of making everything work better than the highly paid team of specialist engineers that spent years planning and designing their products. In their minds anyway...

And alas - our intrepid crusader. Sir Dodgingius Demoerinopelius, hails from the famed village of Boksborough. He also is well skilled in the art of modifying. Having done modifications ranging from cars, lawnmowers, gates, garage doors, cats and budgies, he turned to his camera bag, and came up with this:



BTW - should you attempt this, I take no responsibility for what your wife might do to you for abusing her electric bread knife (best thing ever to cut sponges with)

Real neat job.

now if only the modifies fords in boksburg looked as well as this kit.



MOOI gedoen !

[Corlie]

what about the back of the camera no support ?:O

what about the back of the camera no support ?:O

That's deliberate - it's a Lowepro Fastpack, and you can pull the camera out from the side. I like the fast access to the camera and wanted to keep it that way

MOOI gedoen !

Dankie Chris!

Miskien kan jy iets soortgelyk doen met die kamera stoorplekkie daar in die Hilux...

Bag looks good, well done!

I can vouch for the electric bread knife to cut the foam. When we bought our Echo 4x4 trailer we were not happy with the space lost in the standard kitchen area, hence we opted to have the kitchen replaced with drawers. I then bought blocks of foam and used an electric bread knife to cut out areas for the mugs, tumblers, pots, pans etc. Works like a dream.

Dis die plan. Maar nou het jy so mooi joppie gedoen dat ek sal moet uit haal en wys. Ek begin juis die week met die bracket vir die houer. Ek sal die projek dokumenteer en later post.

I use my bandsaw to cut hd foam; the cut comes out smoother than the original sides.

Nice mod though, well done!

[Peter Veitch]

So where's the cut out for the "brandewyn" and the Coke? Us "okes" from Boksburg have got to be well prepared.

[Yogotta B. Kidding]

Nicely done, used better compressed foam and you can gain yourself a lof more space.

[Stan Blumberg]

You're buggered if you buy anymore kit for this bag....I suppose this method is a way of forced saving:-)

[Chris F]

Peter if he is truly from Boksburg at least one of those lenses are "holowed out" ....

[Hannes Thirion]

Well done. Now post photos of the modified cats and budgies!

[Amanda Watson]

i want one. where can one get the foam from in joburg?

[Chris F]

Amanda any of the foam and mattress shops sells it.

It looks like the high density foam these places sell.
