What do you all use your well well square box thingys for? Does any one have door on theirs, or a drawer? I am working on my design and would like to make the best use of those little spaces. On a totally humorous note.. I went to log in today to Vintage Trailer Talk and the following message came up... "Due to Angry Bear Issues, we re unable to connect you to the forum". I had had to try a few times before it would let me in... Total hilarity

I have seen people put a long door in front of them so they could store anything that fit. I have also seen people make a secret door to access them to put valuables like cameras and such in there when they are showing their trailer, as in out of site out of mind.

I turned one of mine into a wine cabinet although its vertical storage instead of horizontal but who cares, not looking for long term.

Must not been hidden to well, you found em lol. I do like that idea No hidden very well a solid panel in front and a removable opening in the floor of the cabinet above. I am trustworthy so people show me things like this. As more and more people build and rebuild campers you find many small changes being included. Also if they ask for suggestions on how to do something you have an idea how it is done.

We used to travel with ten thousand in cash because a few years back we had trouble using Canadian credit cards and debit cards in some USA states. So we ended up stuffing it inside a sock, which was shoved in the area where there should have been a water line under our water hand pump on the counter. The water pump had not worked in years, so we would just unscrew it, stuff the money in there, and screw it back on. The screw driver was our lock. It was a shabby old tent trailer, and so a perfect way to store money without detection.

I often build a "hidey hole" into my rigs. The Aljo had an oddly placed outlet in the upper shelf, so I built a box that slid around it. Great place for keys and more...
The Cardinal bed was a little wider next to the kitchenette, so I made a false bottom magazine rack there. Fun.
