A careful reading of this blog will generally confirm one overriding theme: Wherever possible, I try to optimize every facet of our overlanding experience. Usually, patience and careful "spec-shopping" nets me a low-cost, lightweight solution. Sometimes iteration is required, and I work from a coarse solution to a finer one. The end of that trend-line, though, is that at a certain point, if things are going to get any better, I need to go custom. And usually, that means making it myself. This project follows that arc perfectly.
