@nickroberts7070 3 года назад

Well mate, that is the best drawer vid on the net. Well done. I approached Drifta for a set of drawers, but incorporating my own upright water tank at the rear. Unfortunately they could not accommodate, so I built my own similar to yours. What I learnt: 1. I used a sheet of 3mm HDPE that I cut. It was too thin. I screwed it in as I was not sure an adhesive would hold over time. As it was thin it slightly bowed. I also made the strips too wide @50mm. Your width looks good. Mine still slide OK, especially with silicon spray. 2. I remove it between trips. It is awkward and heavy to install/remove. 3. Nutserts can work loose when you are installing bolts. 4. Even expensive ply will bow. 5. Drawers are a bit overrated. I will re-design with one drawer, mesh shelving and tubs. 6. The Waeco dual fridge slides weigh a ton. 7. Price came in at about $1k including water tank. 8. Don't leave rear floor seat bolts unplugged...... Again...great job. Regards, Nick

@cameron.gellatly 3 года назад

@jeeper426 3 года назад

a trick i learned from a guy that builds subwoofer enclosures is lay your carpet out in the sun for about 45 minutes to an hour to let the carpet "relax" then it'll be easier to work with and you dont have to fight creases and folds, and on cold days a quick going over with a heat gun or a good hot hair dryer works a treat for making carpet more manageable, never tried it myself with anything other than replacing seat covers, great vid and an awesome solution to a problem, i'm thinking about working with a friend of mine to build a set of drawers for a '91 jeep XJ that i'm about to do a repower on

@mattnewman8454 3 года назад

Awesome build. I used that yellow plastic that electricians use to run wiring through stud walls for my "drifta" runners, couple of bucks for a three metre length from memory. If they get dirty, a quick wipe and some silicon spray fixes them.

@trentboulos315 3 года назад

Great drawers mate, will try build a similar set for the back of my car! Btw, the surface area doesn't come into play when calculating the force required to push the drawers, Friction force = (friction coefficient of the material) X (downward force or mass of object) You're saving money on materials by dividing it up into two strips but not halfing the force required to push the slides

big fan of your videos...but why even mention DRIFTA? As if Aussie manufacturing isn't doing it tough enough.. When the owner/manufacturer of locally made gear isn't willing to give up their materials or IP you publicly say they 'weren't willing to help' - of course not, its their business, theirs and their employees livelihood. And then produce 'How to Build your own DRIFTA drawers' ..again, why even mention their brand?? This stuff does damage, whether you think it does or not. I proudly work for an Aus manufacturer and deal with it all the time.

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

Not my intention to hurt them at all. In fact I think they should be chuffed that ppl want to copy their design. When I say they didn’t want to help I meant that they didn’t want to sell me the Teflon slides. That’s all. I never asked them for ddetails on how to build their drawers or anything else. I just wanted to buy the slides from them because I have all the machines and know how to build my own Ppl who watch this video would of been willing to make their own anyway and would never have bought pre made drawers so I don’t think I am taking business away from them. And the ones that watch it who can’t make their own now know that drifta make a great drawer very much like my own. Definitely not trying to hurt drifta, I think they are a great company. But some of us want to make our own stuff that’s all.

@mustafabeer8002 3 года назад

Well done. You can only imagine what Drifta would have charged you for that set up. Telflon is overkill for drawer slides. You could have saved yourself a motza by using UHMWPE which is specifically designed for use as wear strips. Much cheaper and works just as well. I have always wondered if Drifta actually use real Teflon (PTFE) based on the price. Most people see non stick plastic and just assume teflon ( i am in the plastics industry). I made my own drawers using UHMWPE runners and, as you have demonstrated, there is a bit of time involved but it certainly isn't that hard. And better still, you get a result which can incorporate innovative design features that would be very difficult and expensive to get from a manufacturer.

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

Yeah I looked into the other types of plastic and was told it’s heaps cheaper. But wanted to try and replicate drifta as closely as I could so went with real Teflon. Yes bloody expensive stuff. Having said that they glide sooo nice.

@timphoto83ec 3 года назад

Mustafa , if your in the industry then you know why UHMWPE is a better choice than PTFE even if it was the same price. I think many just say "teflon" because people then understand even if they are using something else.

@timphoto83ec 3 года назад

@@Australian4x4Adventures What makes you think they use teflon? Teflon is not ideal because of its abrasion resistance especially in a dirty environment. UHMWPE is what you want for this application. Great vid though.

@Australian4x4Adventures 8 месяцев назад

The guns just to help hold it together while the glue sets. You really don’t need to nail it. It’s just a little more fiddly to get the screws in.

@alexhatzi4118 9 месяцев назад

Hey mate just wondering how much gap did you allow between the box to the drawers and how much did u allow the teflon strips to Protrude to allow them to slide against each other ?

@Australian4x4Adventures 9 месяцев назад

I took off 10mm from the total height. The Teflon was recessed 50/50. So it had the full thickness as a gap from timber to timber. Hopefully that makes sense

@gavinmarshall6438 5 месяцев назад

@cooperken11 2 года назад

Great video but one big warning, don’t rely on screws in your fridge slides. They need to be bolted with lock tight. They work fine in a kitchen but not in a fourby on corrugations and rough tracks. I used T nuts in the sides with a wafer head bolt through the track. If you don’t bolt and glue everything the runner screws eventually come loose and jamb up in the runner either making it impossible to open or worse close the drawer (ask me how I know, and yes I’m also a cabinet maker) I had to grind off one runner so I could close my back door. 😡🤬🤬🤬

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

Hahaha. Yeah I had thought of that as well. I had wanted to do t nuts in the video but didn’t have the right ones at the time. I’ve since changed them over.

If you know how to join it properly you can get away with 12mm but it is much harder to work with for sure. I used 15mm for the top and bottom for strength and 12mm for everything else. Build it the right way and you can get the twist out of the sheets and hold it square But using 15-18mm ply would be heaps easier for someone who doesn’t know how to work with twisted sheets.

Hahaha. It was a client we done a job for a few years ago. She was handing them out. Always looking more work.

@vicomte777 3 года назад

Loved the vid, borrowed some ideas, built my own drawer and slide setup, just before Easter. !@!@# lockdown and haven't had a good chance to really test 'em out. Thanks for the inspiration! used strips of Dotmar polystone 7000 UHMWPE and with the money I saved compared to the commercial setups, bought a stainless water tank for in between rear seat and the drawer.

@georgioskaravasilis6888 3 года назад

Hey Christian, how many mm’s were your strips ?

@matgill6963 3 года назад

Great drawers. Makes it look incredibly easy as he has all the tools at hand. I can tell you form experience this is a lot harder without a table saw (most importantly) nail gun etc.

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

Absolutely I have an advantage with having my workshop with all the tools. But I can be done without all that but a little bit more time consuming

@matgill6963 3 года назад

@@Australian4x4Adventures 100%. I built a set for the back of my discovery 2. First time id done anything like that. fairly happy with the result but would do a lot different next time. Next time id probably hit up a cabinet maker or joiner with a big table saw and get them to cut all my panels.!

@davewhitefield2033 3 года назад

Thanks for the video. What stops the draws pulling all the way out ( falling out ) About to build my own draws so your video is most helpful.

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

The same latch that holds them shut is tall enough to catch the back of the drawer when fully extended

@quentinlaunay2424 2 года назад

Great video and great set up you've got now!!!! Quick question, which lithium battery are you using?

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

The DCS slimline 200amp

Great job, although not being a cabinet maker myself I’m sure I’d run into a few problems.

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

Had lots of non trade ppl have a crack and doing their own and have said my video helped them heaps

@jp671 2 года назад

Hi mate, great build. Just wondering, when you pull the drawers approx halfway out and the weight balance is unsupported at the front, do they start to tip down a few mm and the back edges catch on the roof? Building my own drawers atm and unsure if this will become an issue. cheers

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

Hey mate. Yes that’s exactly what happens. That why the gap needs to be nice and tight 5-6mm so the further it comes out the more pressure it puts in the roof of the drawers holding it in place.

@willwheadon1946 2 года назад

Great video mate. Very well detailed! Just want to know where you bought your Teflon from?

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

It’s a place called regancy plastics in Kilsyth.

@jamiewilliams639 3 года назад

Hey mate great vid was wondering if you’d be able to give a ballpark number of how much it cost you to build out this system - cheers

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

Check out the video after this one. It’s a full run down of all the costing and weights

@zepposboeckx 2 года назад

Great vid bud! Amazing result! What kind of material (grey) did you use to cover the wood?

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

It’s a marine carpet from bunnings.

@benjaminleyden7647 3 года назад

Currently building similar set up, what did you use to fix the Teflon inplace?

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

Roofing silicon works a treat. Sticks to anything.

@OG_ShagyWagy 2 года назад

Wondering if anyone knows what type of glue he used to adhere the teflon (HDPE) to the plywood?

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

I used roofing silicon.

@maurocalcagnomontpilier9837 3 года назад

Hi Steve, I can see that every time you cut a piece of ply then you run the router over the edge. What is this for and which router bit do you use?

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

I only ran the router of edges that would be seen later on. It was only to take the sharpness out of the edge and to help prevent damage later on as well. A curved edge is stronger then a square one. It was just a little 5mm pencil round bit. Nothing special.

@maurocalcagnomontpilier9837 3 года назад

@@Australian4x4Adventures Thanks for your help, mate! I'm not a chippy and don't know these tricks!

You can do it! If ya need any tips msg me.

@big.red.76 10 месяцев назад

absolutely brilliant video dude. it answered a few q’s for me prior to my build - the Teflon side strips as a guide to minimise sideward shuffling is perfect. well done.

@Australian4x4Adventures 10 месяцев назад

@paulwalker7975 2 года назад

Hey fella awesome job has inspired me .but 1 question how was the fridge slide fixed the the timber ?

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

T nuts through the timber and into the runner. Strongest way

@brentwilliams717 2 года назад

Had everything cut & started putting it all together until I saw this vid. Love the table under the fridge. Just looking at how tight you have it around the fridge, what about airflow?

@Australian4x4Adventures 2 года назад

With my fridg the vents are on the front so it works. If your vents are at the back or side then you would need to build in some way of venting that space too

@wmontaney 3 года назад

At minute 17:00 is the bottom teflon track surface mounted or did you do a slight recess to mount it? Hard to tell and I don't think you mentioned what you did with that track. Thank you.

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

Yeah the Teflon was rebated into the base by 3mm. Both the base of the unit and the base of the drawer.

@henryklaus9261 3 года назад

Hi where do buy the handle/ catches. They look way better for purpose than the paddle type. Cheers Damo

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

@jeffkelly3542 3 года назад

Great Job !! I see in your comments that the base is 15mm ply. What is the thickness of the sides and top and draws ?? Cheers

@Australian4x4Adventures 3 года назад

Everything else is 12mm ply
