From home-made to mass-produced; they will only take you a couple of hours to knock up with a drill, a grinder or a hacksaw and a few basic hand tools. Better yet, it costs less than $50.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">BITS AND PIECES<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Most of us have a couple of bits of scrap ply or pine board left over from one of your last projects that you didn\u2019t know what to use it for. Well here it is. So all you have to do is buy some 25mmx25mm alloy angle, screws and marine carpet (or you could just paint the wood).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">WHERE TO START<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">First up, remove the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/products\/rear-drawers.html\">Titan Rear Drawers<\/a> from the back of your 4WD and measure them up to see how many sections you want to create.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">When you know what you want to do you can then mark your angle into pieces about 30mm lower than the top of the drawer to make sure your brackets don\u2019t catch the top of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/products\/rear-drawers.html\">drawers<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">CHOP CHOP<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">When you have your measurements for the timber and angle, use a grinder with an alloy cutting wheel and cut the angle to length. Once cut, clean all the burs off the angle ready to use. After you have your brackets ready, mark and cut the ply to the be 5mm narrower and 30mm lower than your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/products\/rear-drawers.html\">Titan Rear Drawer<\/a> so when you cover them in carpet they are still easy to remove and refit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">PUT IT ALL TOGETHER<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Once you have your angle and ply cut to size, apply glue to the ply and cover it in the marine carpet or just hit it with a coat of spray paint. Then measure and mark the sides of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/products\/rear-drawers.html\">Titan Rear Drawers<\/a> and start screwing the angle to each side in a back to back configuration in 400mm intervals. Make sure you make them slightly wider than the thickness of your ply so they slide in and out nicely (the exact thickness will depend on whether they are carpeted or just painted). This is so you can change your drawer configuration in a matter of minutes, depending on who is going away and what you have to take. The spacing can of course be changed to suit your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">FINISH THEM OFF<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Here&#8217;s a cool finishing touch. Secure the first divider in place and fit some foam to that section so you can cut holes out to allow your knives, forks, salt and pepper or even your knick knacks to poke into the foam and be in easy reach when you need them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 461px; width: 1107px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 471px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-378\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4wdsupacentre.com.au\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4WD244-162-163-SPEND-50.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"436\" height=\"257\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 622px;\"><strong><em>WHAT IT COSTS<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>12mm ply $0 left over piece from old project<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>25mmx25mmx1.4mm Alloy angle $19.80 from the local hardware<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Marine carpet 2 sq. meters $19.85 from local hardware<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Screws $3.25 from local hardware<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>TOTAL $42.90<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 471px;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 622px;\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Are you unhappy with how your belongings slide around in your the Titan Rear Drawers?
