more and bigger

redid some drawers, moved some and made 2 of them deeper. I took the short one that was on the top and moved it down to the next opening down, doubled up there. then made the bottom drawer 11 inches deep and the second from the bottom 10 inches, (it was broken anyway)They were only 8 inches. Moved the drawer that was on the bottom to the very top. These drawers are 33 inches long, so can store some pretty good sized stuff in them





  • Nice job. You were wise using the full extension heavy duty drawer glides.

    Thanks,, used what was already in the trailer,, don't think they are full extension though, but come out far enough you can very easily reach the back.
  • Nice work!

    Like how you did this.
    May have to copy your idea for the wife's pantry.
  • Those look like full extension slides, but are too short for the drawers. It would (maybe :) ) be nicer with the proper length slide.

  • We're in Deer Park, WA (north of Spokane) and would LOVE to hire you! I need drawers made and installed! I have several projects I just don't know where to go to get them done.

    NICE JOB ... they are gorgeous.

    Thank you,,, thinking it would a bit of long commute to work on your trailer. My trailer came with the long drawers already in it, or at least there were 4 of them,, moved one and added one, and made some deeper. Might try a local cabinet shop for drawers, not sure what else you need done. I have done quite a few things to mine since I bought it. Added a light by the steps on the frame, tiled the wall by the stove, added another outside light, put gas struts under the bed, added another drawer under the TV, those are just a few of the things so far. Do a search for my post if you want. Good luck.
