Rear drawer set ups (build your own?)

[KevO]

I've got the avenger canopy. For me it's not a issue getting to the fridge as I'm tall enough, and as for the wife,, she's short so gets me to get what she wants from the fridge

Following my few progress photos's these are the completed photo's. So as you can see, steel work for uprights, and ends, carpet finished all off. Wing kit, with storage underneith. Drop slide goes on top with the 60 Ltr engel.

Top job Tim they are awesome! Well done mate:yo:.

Got a little bit done this arvo, starting to take shape. Still have to trim up the top and fit, fit the slides ,carpet and make the wings for the sides and rear of the drawers.

@17triton what you using for slides, or you going to run on the timber faces on the bottom?

I'm going to cut strips of plastic off the tank that came with the frame and slide them on each other with silicone spray, fingers crossed. Hope this makes sense.

Why didn't you post this 6 months ago before I bought a set from Ironman

 

[bigcol]

ahhhhhh @dagree
I forgot I had them.........???
was only because a mate wanted some info on the IFS Cruiser that I looked in my "Manuals" folder and saw that Folder as well........

sorry dude.,,,,,

 

[dagree]

No probs @bigcol ... by the time I tried making them and fixing booboo's it probably worked out cheaper and quicker buying "ready made"

@17triton, looking good mate.

Are you going to sit your fridge on top?

Nice choice I remember talking to you about it at Knockwood but couldnt remember what option you had decided on.

 

[17triton]

Yes we did talk a lot of crap didn't we!

Here it is working well. I had to get rid of the original frame after carpeting the draws it was too tight so I used some more ply. I am happy with the outcome and next job will be a cage to stop things falling in behind the fridge when it gets pulled out and some wings out the sides and rear. I might permanently mount the compressor and add a duel battery at some stage.
