4 bits of angle
2 pieces of marine ply
2 x 640mm 60kg slides
Some old marine carpet
Couple of screws and 4 x 6mm bolts

Now the hard bit

16 Jim beam cans while drawing the plain of attack :idea: , then the next day with a part hangover trying to remember how it was spouse to be done :?

A few more cans and it all came flooding back. . . . a few hrs later and more cans all done.

And bobs your uncle one home made fridge slide . . . . .
