Thanks for always stopping by and supporting our channel guys. We will always return the favor and love your videos.

[@janinemorgan9515]

I am making my husband do this!

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Lol, it’s really easy.

[@stevesmith-ny8jb]

Great idea and awesome workmanship. The only problem I see wrong with it is it makes the dowels a permanent fixture, so if you wanted to put something bigger in there such as a carton of cigarettes it's not going to fit because of the top tower. They make Nets better design for spaces like that. You just need to find the one that is your size or trim down something a little bit larger. Or, go to the hardware store and you can get a little arm that goes inside that you can adjust to keep the door from falling open like that.

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Thanks Steve. Planning is key, make sure you know what you are going to put in there. If you want to remove them it’s actually pretty simple and not permanent. Just cut the dowels off with a zip tool flush to the cabinet side, a little sand paper to smooth it out, and run some stain over it. Would probably never even notice they were there.

[@alive-awake]

Looks great but did I miss something? Dont you have to turn the items on their side to get them in there since the dowels are permanent?

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Taller items may have to go in a little bit sideways, correct. The only thing in the video that needed to go in sideways was the syrup. Because of the depth everything else fits in vertically. And they won’t fall out!

[@alive-awake]

@@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS ok, very good, thanks!

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

@@alive-awake no problem thanks for watching!

[@roymichael851]

You're sharp dude, great videos, I just bought a Grand Design and plan on using some of your ideas, thanks for posting some very easy to do mods that make total sense, please keep'em coming for us new guys....safe travels.

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Thanks for watching and commenting Roy. I appreciate the nice comment. We have a new video coming out this Sunday that I think you will also enjoy. Safe travels to you as well!

[@perfectdesign6086]

Enjoyed watching. Thanks!

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed!

[@seanlisacomstock2767]

We love that your videos are detailed and to the point. Looking forward to more.

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Thanks so much!

[@icontrolthevideo]

I’ve done a similar mod, except with a thin bungee cord stretched between two eye-screws. Bungee is easily detached for larger items.

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Thanks for watching and commenting Rick!

[@ryaneisen5975]

Nice tip, did you do anything with the space above teh microwave?

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Not yet, something is in the works though! Thanks for watching again Ryan!

[@ericwilcox2442]

Great tip. My wife currently keeps rolled up dish and hand towels in the drawer. This mod might be just the thing to make it better for other items.

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Hey Eric, that’s a pretty good idea too. We keep those in our oven since we never use it. Have never even lit it once lol.

[@frankswitzer3045]

simple mod, got a cabinet like this. thanks for the idea. i have some stainless dowels around i might use.

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

funny you mention that, I was looking around the house for stainless dowels before I decided on wood!

[@kimkopko2159]

Great Idea! My husband actually installed cables on this cabinet so when it opens it is level.

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

That's a great idea!

[@bobsmith8745]

Great tip!

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@francissullivan7387]

You are the mod king! And you make it look easy. How did you learn all of this?

[@RVTIPSANDTRAVELS]

I’ve been around modifying car stereos, interiors, exteriors, building show cars, etc most of my life. I’ve used that experience in RV’s. Not all that much different. Thanks for the kind response!
