Cold storage?!

Although we put some things in the Spacevan fridge during our trip, we really preferred using our Engel. Once home again we decided to remove the three-way fridge and convert the space to another storage area. 

We both looked for second-hand cupboard door or drawer options but it was tricky to find the right size, so after much searching we ordered two doors from eBay for just under $134.00 delivered.   

The fridge came out pretty easily. It was mounted to rails on the floor, so Nick slid it out and then removed the rails. I cleaned the floor thoroughly before the next step.

Nick had previous experience with  stainless steel but had forgotten how difficult it was to work with. He says "drilling was a trauma"!  

As you can see, he won out over the doors and we are both quite chuffed with how well they fit the space.  We're not sure yet what we'll use that extra storage for - but we like having it!

The fridge sold for $250.00, which offset some of our other spending.
