Making drawers and things:
I can't put it off any longer - gotta make the drawers! The last time I did that I made some really nice deep drawers but they were a bit too narrow - a standard utensil tray would not fit![Banghead :banghead: :banghead:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
. Remembering that fiasco, I went out and bought a tray beforehand and took measurements! New drawers are bit shallower but wide enough now for the utensil tray. Next was to build the box inset for the drawers:
I also built in the slide for the trashcan. That's that weird looking offset on the right of the box. Then test-fitting and mounting to the galley face (its upside down in the pic):
Then back together for a test fit. I made some simple slides, routed slots in the drawers and (astonishingly!) they work as actual drawers:
After a short break - which included an adult beverage (or three
) it all came apart once again for paint and clearcoat:
Flip everything over and:
Next up, putting it all back together (again!) this time for the final time!
Cheers,
Mark
