Little table invention

[CYCLOPATH]

My problem was, if the interior table isn't up , and you need to get to the sink, but you have a drink on the top, where do you put it.
The solution, was a little pull out table on top of the drawer
And as it is only half the length of the drawer, when pushed back, you can still get to the contents
I used the hardboard from the bottom of a fruit tray Lidl was throwing out.

Like it, simple and effective.

Vw can be expected to copy this great idea. Expect to see it sometime around 2042 in the T16.

If Brandrup see this we could see it on their website for £149

You could just put it on the fridge

I like it, but why VW didn't split the lid over the hob/sink is beyond me.

One reason we like the Marco Polo but not enough to stop us ordering a Cali.

Ah, but I would need a 3 meter arm
Or
Of course
To get out of my seat....far to much effort when on holiday!
And I may well have ridden a hundred miles,
Or be in an alcoholic stupor

If you spill any gin and tonic is is handily held in a multi compartment plastic tray for ease of drinking later.

Good idea.
If you buy one from "Honest Jon Acessories", you get a free straw, so you can recover that spilt gin without even removing the cutlery

Great idea......here's what I do using 2 coasters , being OCD about the cupboard doors being left open ( Mrs Brindisi replying BTW) .........

Don't they fall, out when you lift the lid??

 

[Brindisi]

They aren't attached to the lid and it's usually only when the lid is up anyway . They are just inside that rim that runs round the edge of the unit

 

[Calicliff]

Many thanks for the idea...

To be honest, when I saw you coasters brindisi, I thaught
I wouldn't risk good Gin on that, it will fall out.
But on futher inspection, it is a big groove, holds the table, what a brilliant idea.
As I still had a bit of my fruit box left. I made a little table for myself.
It eaisily holds a kilo gram.

Just needs a coat of red paint, or some red sticky backed plastic.
Thanks again for a great idea.

There is no stopping @CYCLOPATH now, can you come up with something where I can put my can of beer when lying in bed ? ( head at tailgate) ?

Does it hide the "moulding fault/unique Cali birthmark"?

Love ideas like this.
Also really like the red lid colour you have. Are they the ones advertised on here?

 

[motacyclist]

Excellent thinking here. Now, please focus your attention on a bathroom solution for the Cali!

If you had 3 meter long arms and legs to match you could do the driving from the back as well!
