1st I want to say, the part thats uncovered on the middle will be covered but Im letting pops customize that spot with a picture or whatever he chooses.
My dad made most everything I have ever had in life including the house I live in. So I wanted to make him something this dad's day that he could really use and enjoy. He just built a hang out place in his back yard that I call "his fort" Since he's in his 60's now and a little more mellow, he has a lot of little parties with friends, family, basically anyone who wants to come hang out in his back yard. lol. (He claims to have made the fort a covered stage for my 12 year old and his band. But I know the truth. hehe. it's his fort :) ) So I thought this cooler stand would come in handy. He saw me working on it a few days before fathers day and told me he was afraid I was gonna make his something girly. hehe. He's such a man's man. I love my pops and am soooo happy he likes my gift. Its already in use in the fort. hehe

Thank you, I'm just returning some of his hand made hard work. Thank you for the best father day idea ever. I'm sure I would have made him some girly thing if I hadn't come across your cooler plans. hehe. He is so happy with it and its held up, even with regular use and his heavy hand. :P it's the only thing keeping things cool in his fort and he brags to all of his friends about how his daughter made it for him.
Thanks again!
