Good good.....ha ha...

Maybe something like the fridge protective covers....... or if someone is feeling handy with the sewing machine that has a strong needle, 3 layers of material. The outside a pliable canvas, sandwiched in between, a thin almost duvet type material, and on the inside a strong "Calico" ( I think its spelt something like that ). The duvet/spongy material will form an air space between inside and outside assisting with the insulation.

Just my :mytwocents:

aqggg jaaa, nes julle dink die outoppi is weggg - hie'sy weer..
Cedric: Inside the trol yu will hardly need dust covers - coz they mos almost or nothing dust inside.. [sooo, P/ter - relax, jou ontwerp is A-1 [jy kan ' "sloop" maak met plastiek en rek om die kant [iets soos 'n "shower cap" ??? - maar net vierkantig ... maar oompie dink nie stof gaan jou pla nie.

Cedric - daai "yskasjas" werk B G - en mens kan dit self maak..
\Koop "geyser blanket" [die groene] by MAKRO of hardeware winkel - koop tarpualin [seil?] - van die soort wat hulle tuinmeubels toemaak - OF daai wat jy koop wat die bakkie loads beskerm teen reen en stof --
Nou maak jy daai 'geyser blanket' tussen 2 lae van daai seil .. en VOILA - jou yskas is beskerm EN ekstra isulasie werk marvels [doen dit ook met jou "koel-boks"]

dassy - klaa vir nou

yip... Oom is reg... die insulasie is meer belangruk as stoff uithou. Maar hoe dik is daai groen "geyser blanket" material. Will it compress sufficiently at the corners/bends to make it neat and tidy? The idea is good though!!!!

Over the weekend I covered it all up.

The original plan was to use galvanized sheet, but I discovered that i only had a small pice left, so I made do with what materials I had. The right hand side is galvanized sheet, covered with insertion rubber, the left hand side is covered in 4mm plywood covered in insertion rubber (I did not cover the area next to the fridge), the front (closest to the back seat) is covered in Masonite, and the top is a 15mm melamine, also covered in insertion rubber, so that things can be packed on top. It has hooks on one side and two screws on the other, so it is quick and easy to remove.
