The Ultimate Work Trailer
Tools of the Trade: As Garfield Karpiak told me when we first discussed the story he would write for JLC, “I used to do the "tools in the back of the truck" routine, but it severely limited my ability to carry material. As my tool inventory increased and my back complained, I realized I needed something better.” And he got something better, way better—a custom-built work trailer designed to suit his particular needs.

I feel that this article shows dedication and hard work pays off. By him building his own truck and still working even though he is in pain he is showing that he won’t give up. By him doing this and getting his story out there shows other people that it isn’t impossible to do what you love. He is also showing that maybe sometime you have to take some obstacles to get to where you want to be in life. I think this is a good article but what it shows that he was determined to have what he wanted and have something that worked for him. He said that he was in pain and when you go to real life and that you have to work and figure out a design that works for your life and then use it. With him drafting everything and figure out the unit he wanted he is shaping the way of his work for himself.
