So I see just about everyday somebody giving away one of those old style metal file cabinets on Craigslist. These can be quite sturdy for the better ones, with slides strong enough to support quite a load, I would think.
I suppose the vertical ones may be typically narrower than our usual fridges, pity, but I've been intrigued by the notion of converting one into a fridge sliding contraption. Like maybe chopping off the top, keeping the lower slide, possibly relocating it, and putting a flat platform on it to tie down the fridge to. Maybe use 2 side to side?
Anybody tried that?
Worth looking into it? Or just use the slides if good, and do your own DIY base?
Thoughts?
