My story:
About a year ago, flipping through an Australian 4x4 magazine, I found near the back a small ad showing a revolutionary slide system. The ad showed a drop down Fridge Slide .
Now, I love my fridge, but hate pulling it down from on top of my storage system when I need to get something out. And what I hate even more is hefting the fridge back up. As a matter of fact, it does not matter if it is a fridge or cooler; they are still heavy to deal with.
I contacted the company in Australia, but they were not interested in shipping to the States. Turns out shipping from Australia is very expensive. The cost of shipping alone was way more than the cost of the product. I’m sure the weighty of the slide had a lot to do with that.
I tried unsuccessfully to talk my wife into a trip down under for a shopping spree! So, that left me to figure out how to build my own “Drop Down Fridge Slide”. I found a few pictures on the internet and there is a You Tube video showing how it operates.
The build was not that difficult and involved a tape measure, square, chop saw and a mig welder and a lot of referencing of the pictures on the web.
