I had some more progress on my drawers yesterday. Almost finished. Slightly different to the usual ply ones. Made entirely from alloy.Spilsy

On the fridge I used 227kg runners from

When fully extended they can carry 120kg. Cost $160. I used the 125kg runner for the drawer which I haven't fitted yet. Cost $92. I bought a cargo box 780 x 380 x 380 from Bunnings for this for $160. I went this option as we find bread etc keeps longer in a sealed container. The alloy is $25 for 6.5m. I used 4 lengths. The joiners are approx. $1.50 each. There are 18 joiners. Security screen was free. Carpet I already have but haven't fitted yet. Add another $50 for a bit of ply, alloy angle to mount slide, bolts etc.
So total cost about $600 (including the cargo box).
I did a ply one in my previous car using nylon slides. This is much nicer, lighter and fridge should get better ventilation.
Hope this helps.
