Hawk wind screen and tote box

Thank you JerryHawk250 for thr ideas on the wind screen. I finally got around to making a wind screen. It was my first attempt and i have to say it went fairly quick. Not perfect, but doable with the right tools. The harbor frieght tool box i had fell apart out on the trail. I ordered this Dewalt tool box from Home Depot and it should be better. The wind screen will also keep the brush from scratching the gauge which usually happens out on the trail.

Automotive double sided tape works really well!

The run to the canyon would be the ultimate ride.

I figured they just don't last. Only the Hawk itself endures!
