    Nice work. . . .I made a set of drawers for my "other" wagon and know how difficult it is! I like that table too, might have to set up one like that in my bus!

    yeah was a bit bigger of a gig than I thought! 3 arvo's after work, and most of the weekend. One good thing carpet covers a lot of poor carpentry work Allready loaded up one side of the drawers with cooking gear, can't wait to try them out this weekend, looks like it going to work really well for us. Ive ordered a replacement 42 LED light to replace the rear interior, plus Im going to install a drop down work light just inside the rear door opening, so it will fold flat.

    On the left of the drawers where the gap is I left it open purposely so I can fit 1 x 20l vertical and 1 x 20l horizontal water containers. I also built 2 hatch openings in the floor at the front of the drawers, fits the compressor, toolbag, hitches and a few shits and bits.

    Great job, you've now got me motivated. Might pm you regarding some specs, don't want to reinvent the wheel.

    Cheers

    Cheers lads, yeah fold out double table, the red box is my primes cooker, I only have an icebox so that sits under the tie down straps.

    If anyone wants some more detailed pics let me know I'll post em on here btw I did not use runners, the cost just kept creeping up, I used these little nylon slider things from buntings, about the size of a 10c bit and about 7mm high, designed for the bottom of chair legs, 2 on the back underside of the draw, and 2 at the front of the base it it works quite well, the boss has no problem sliding them so all good.
