    I bought this cute little shovel at Home Depot awhile back when we were expecting a deluge of rain and I needed to fill some sandbags.

    Drilled a hole in it, (surprisingly hard for how thin it is, btw) grabbeb some 3/8-16 X 1 1/4 Flange bolts and added a washer with an OD that would keep the bolts in the rail, and voila!

    Keeps it tucked in the front corner of the bed, finger tight nut so it's easily accessible, and always with me without always being in the way.

    If I were going someplace that I thought I might need more (wheeling, camping, etc) I'll take a real shovel, but this way I always have something.

    Plus it's cute.
