These are the drawers me and my mate made from a sheet of 18 and 13mm ply and some marine carpeting, took us a while but the finished product is sweet! all set for camping!

mate im halfway through my own (put on hold until the cars running again) are you using drawer slides/rollers at all? if so, where did you get them? or do they just sit in there? and how strong do the locks feel? locks are one of the main things ive been trying to work out...

im not using rolllers but a cheap but good alternative is just your plastic white chopping board from the 2 dollar shop, mate has it and works a treat! we just made mines snug, the locks are great although if you wanted to break into it you could, i recommend the lock hinges that cover the bolts when its locked

Choppy

great work, SI3RR4's is very similar design even down to the locks. he added in some boxes on the wheel arches and just used a thin coating of candle wax, even full of gear they slide excellently. little bit of water proofing to.

my plan for waterproofing is a coat of exterior house paint, then marine carpet over the top of that...
