Gas Storage Locker

Just tacked this together Friday 6th Feb, spent a few hours cutting the various bits and marking up the floor to get it right first time.


Tacked a top edge strip to allow the lid to sit against it.

Bent a bit of 50 x 4 around the seam to make the front of the lid.

Held it all in place with little tabs, then scriped and cut the lid to size

Corner to corner weld required.

The finished box,

very happy with it, exactly as per my original drawings.

the top seat will mirror it in reverse.

Front Locker Seats

Another of those jobs thats been hanging around is the fitting, or more precisely the securing of the bow lockers.

The lids have been loosely laid on top which looked fine but was not very safe if you stepped on them going forward as they would slip.  They were cut from templates I made then scanned into a CNC router by the same firm that did the rear decks. See here.  They also routed a bull nose so now the edges wont dig into the underside of our legs.

I have placed some wooden blocks on the under side that locate against the rim of the locker then to add some security I have set in a latch in each.

Not that anything of great value is kept in them, just I had 2 left over from doing the rear deck after changing the way I secured them down.
