Drawers under the sink

[pirat]

Something to work at in the coming long dark autumn afternoons:

I bought this stuff at IKEA's, partslist is in my gallery.

There is no drilling into the furniture to fix it, it stays put all by itself. All you neeed is 2 pieces of wood 50/50/450 mm and 2 pieces of wood 45/32/450 mm. (I covered them with grey foil)
You just fix the 3 slide rails in the distance you prefer to each of the two wooden pole-sets and place the two sets in the cupboard, the larger ones go to the right side. Then you slide the drawers in and everything sits rattle-free in place.

have fun

This looks excellent - thinking about stealing the idea. You said you'd put the parts list in the gallery, but haven't managed to track it down.

Love the camping pictures in your gallery too

Excellent work pirat, you have some really good & practical mods in your cali.

Pirat any chance of some sort of technical drawing with measurements to make construction really easy??

Anyone considering doing this mod the parts from Ikea alone weigh 11.7 Kgs so it will add at least 12 Kgs to the already heavy N/S of the Cali. I am having a rethink on this one, having already bought the drawers !

I thought it was a good idea.

Are the drawer bases 18mm MDF? Most of the weight is probably there. As they aren't going to be loaded with heavy pots and pans, perhaps a lightweight plyboard would be better.

That's ok Andy - I could do with loosing 12kg so if I do the Cali will weigh the same :lol:

No I think a lot of it is metal.

Good idea, I'll go on a crash diet then it'll be OK. .... oh wait a minute diets never work for me, too many temptations !!

 

[Andy]

Actually more like 13.5 Kg drawers made of metal !
