Default design idea!

Hi,

One of the product ideas I went thru in my GCSE folder was a roof box - a big wooden box that can be put on a car roof rack - the idea being that it is specifically made to hold a wakeboard, kneeboard and monoski (all clamped in place) then in the front and back it had airholes, these would allow the kit to dry whilst in transit - thus when you get home your kit is dry and the box can then be removed and placed in a garage witht he kit still inside.

Ok i admit the idea needs some (a lot!) of work ops: but it would score well if you can make it out of a suitable material and give it a good "clamp to roof rack" system.

Hope this helps.. I was going to make it in year 11 but it was to big.

Later,

Mike
