First Addition -Platform Storage Box

Had my Bondock for a couple of days and decided to start pretty simple. I bought a 19 inch Stanley FatMax. Got it home and I can put my wheel blocks and those square levelers in it, along with a couple of very small odds and ends. I did not want my front box to be overhanging the platform. Drilled the back for the U bolts, and then added some zip ties on the front sides, and also another underneath near the front as well. I 'padded' the zip ties where they meet the metal, just with some electrical tape. Zip ties and screws will need to be checked occasionally for breakage or any loosening - but I'll see how it stands up. The box lid opens about 3/4 of the way, which is fine for my contents. Will add a small lock on the front, but quite frankly with just inexpensive stuff in the box, not a big deal.
Pic one - front - fits nice I think
Pic two - side - showing U bolts (I put steel plates and bolts on both the outside and inside seemed to secure better that way)
Pic three - inside bolts
