The Ultimate Outdoorsman's Workshop Handbook: Organize, Maintain and Store Your Outdoor Gear
 Most every outdoorsman has to be his own equipment manager. Even if he's serious about only two particular endeavors—say bass fishing and turkey hunting—he's got stuff galore: bags, calls, rods, lures, line, cleaning kits, shotguns, clothes, and decoys.
Often, the night before a trip or the first day of the season is an exercise in "Where the heck did I put that?" and "Why did this break?" as much as it is a prelude to excitement, and time gets wasted in dealing with equipment needs.
But if you invest a little now in following this book's instructions for gear maintenance and organization and its wide variety of plans for do-it-yourself projects, down the line the time you save gets you out the door that much sooner, or gets you that much more shut-eye, making you pumped, ready, and clearheaded for the big day.
Written by an outdoorsman for all outdoors people, this book equips the reader with enough insight and skill to create workspace systems and storage for every major necessity. And with a little imagination, the reader can customize the project plans and methods here to apply the do-it-yourself approach anywhere, any time.
