I dig this wood backpack found on mistermort.typepad.com. The carrier is from Sweden which adds to its allure. Though it has to be pretty heavy. But check out those gate hinges. Anything with gate hinges is pure awesomeness.

His backpack looks like a book shelf. I bet he keeps books in that.
it’s interesting how he choose to put a frying pan on the back and a blanket on the top. Without those items he looks like he’s carrying around items of questionable intent, but the pan and blanket declares he’s just a camper. He may never have camped in his life, but is just using those items to calm inquisitors.
I was wondering how to make such a device lighter. Looks like he’s using pine which is not a very heavy wood, but still quite heavy in this application. Any lighter wood is too soft and would get beat up very easily.
A plastic composite wood is entertaining. It surely would be lighter and would display similar visual characteristics. That got me thinking about just turning a tupperware container into a backpack. That’d be “interesting”.
Does Tupperware make anything big enough to be used as a backpack? I think a more likely source would be Rubbermaid…
Using Robbermaid and Tupperware in the same thought like that reminds me that I recommended that Newell/Rubbermaid buy Tupperware’s business operations way back in 2000 in my final term project when I completed my MBA.
