Home made slide out cargo tray

I want to build a cargo tray to go in the basement of my 5th wheel. I cannot afford the 500-600 dollars for a professionally built and installed one. There has to be an economical way to build one. My main objective is to get my tool box into an accessible position. I built slide out trays in the pantry's in my rv and they work good. Any logical and practical and cheap suggestions would be appreciated

Okay I wanted to post the pictures of the storage tray that we built in our Surveyor. Now that the Surveyor is no more we will be refitting it to the new Avenger.

Those of you who are having trouble posting pictures or think that our forums are not friendly to picture uploading need to take a look at this thread that is stuck at the top of this forum.

There is no need anymore to have your own picture hosting service, or to go through a lot of hoops to get a picture in your post. All you need to do is upload a picture directly from your computer or other source to the given website, copy the url that results, and paste that url into your post. No need to worry about size either as the website sizes the picture properly for our forums.

Give it a try. I started a picture posting thread which is also stuck up there, in order for you to try out the new site. Please use it only for testing your ability to use the new service.
It is not a thread to just post your favorite pictures. We have other forums/threads for that purpose.
Thank you.

I know I had seen one somewhere and found it this afternoon. It may not fit your need exactly but it will give you some ideas. I am going to try to do something like this in the future.

Want cheep? Two aluminum angle and some UHMW (Ebay)super slick plastic cut into strips that will fit inside aluminum angle. Screw plastic strips to bottom edges of suitably thick plywood. Plastic acts a bearing. Effort required to move increases with weight but I had no problems moving several hundred pounds of stuff on 4'x4' platform.
