michufc Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Cheers lads I have just got to make a removable section for the dog now as I want to take him to work with me as much as possible I was going to make it out of oak vainer but it is for work after all I think the next process for me is to stain it with something hard wearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
young airgunner Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 looks good mate. I'm looking at doing something similar with my ford ranger. how did you measure a template for the top shelf part ( above drawers) cheers james Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex C Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 That looks really good.. Get your hands on some cheap aluminium angle or similar, use it to edge the drawer boxes and the edges of the cabinet. Stops any big chunks getting knocked off and making it look scabby over time. For that bit extra, cover it with some hard wearing cheap corded carpet first it will really give it a pro look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also get checker plate rubber matting which gives a nice easy clean finish to protect the top if you need it easy washable. EBay have it.

michufc Posted March 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Yes thanks to all I am going to get some Angled Ali for the edges as you are right they will get battered the rubber matting is a good idea aswell. As for the template I just did it from scratch I don't think you can get templates to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
