cabinet mod

well got the TT last Saturday, time to start the mods. didn't like that the cabinet over the sink and stove was wide open seems to me it would be a trainwreck by the time you got to the campground. so here it is. i'm happy with how it came out !

It looks nice. I would be a little nervous about the cups and bowls that are above the railing. They may tumble out. If this does not end up working the way you envisioned, you may want to put some doors on the cupboards. Not for looks, but for functionality. Thanks for sharing your mod! Mods are fun to look at!

It looks like there are doors on the cabinet (I see the lifts on the side). The doors are in the open position.


PS
Good job! Let us know how it works out for you. Always looking for mods to keep in mind.

the cupboards are about an inch away from the cabinet doors hopefully the doors would keep them from tipping if not ill just add another dowel rod

thanks for the input

nice work, and looks very well organized,...... we use plastic tubs that hold stuff like a drawer and can be pulled all the way out to get to whatever is in the back of the cabinet, which is actually in the tub,.....

we like Mayberry Campground in Mt. Airy and Zooland Family Campground in Asheboro, .... Mt. Airy has all the Andy Griffith history and the NC rally was at Mayberry CG in May, but we had to cancel our reservation because DW had gone back to work in March,... they both honor the Passport America discount, the 50% discount is a big help

oh, also Cross Winds Family Campground in Linwood, very nice and helpful owners there
