  1. I posted this in .tech, but didn't get any responses, so I'll try
    here...

    I'm looking for plans (or a pre-made one) for a platform which I can
    easily attach to and remove from my rear rack, which would be big enough
    to hold a large gym bag (approx 27" long, 12" wide) without it hanging
    way off the end and sides as it does on the factory rack.

    I'm sure I could whip something up out of 1/4" plywood and four u-bolts,
    but was wondering is somebody knows of a better-looking, more durable
    solution.

    Aluminum would be nice, but not necessary. I have wood working tools,
    but not much in the way of metal working tools except for a bench vise,
    a hacksaw and a Dremel, so complex metal bending and welding are
    out (simple bending, cutting and soldering are ok).

    Thanks for any suggestions!
