Description
# Context
We recently acquired a `TOYOTA PROACE` (1.6 D4D (MDX9) 90) Delivery Panel Van
specifically to accelerate the completion of our [**`@home`**](https://github.com/dwyl/home) project.
Don't worry, we _definitely_ didn't buy a ***`new`*** one that would be an _insane_ waste of cash!
We did a ton of research and looked at quite a few vans ... and ended up finding one below market price.
We spent **`9,400`** after negotiating down from **`€9,950`**.
and we expect it to hold it's value very well in the coming months/years as these vans are very sought after in **`PT`**.
Sadly, the listing for our van has been taken down by OLX once it was sold ... 🙄
But - as you can imagine - we have screenshots:


Rear:

The van is in _very_ good condition. We could _easily_ sell it for a profit immediately if we wanted to.
I didn't find anything comparable online for less than **`€12k`**.
But we are going need to use it a _lot_ in the next few months as we finish the build **`@home`**.
As noted in https://github.com/dwyl/home/tree/main/furniture I expect to be making 100% piece of furniture
Hoping to ramp up from my current rate of **1 `item` per _month_**, to **1 `item` per fortnight**, then **1 per _week_**
and eventually **1 per _day_**. But what I want more than the _pace_ of making things is to _capture_ the process.
More on that over in: https://github.com/dwyl/video/issues
# What?
I want to either `buy` *or* `make` a roof rack _specifically_ for transporting full-size `2500x1200mm` sheet materials.
So that I can bring full-size sheets home from the lumber store and put them directly into the Laser Cuter.
# Todo
+ [ ] Measure the size of the roof
+ [ ] Research Available Roof Racks either from local suppliers or online.
