nice hide-y hole... you might try for some close match carpet for a stealthier install... especially for those Van-burb excursions... lol

Ha ha. Before you even got to the pic with the BC Hydro transformer box I spotted the Tim's in your cup holder to know you're a fellow canadian! I can pick those out a mile away!


Interested to see how this works out for you, make sure post more pics when you're done.

added a door


i wrapped the wood with a quilt filler, then glued and stapled the matching brown around the whole thing

wraped the door

attached the hinge



i am a carpenter/demolition and have alot of tools, so i thought by adding this little cubby i could put all my sledge's, prybars, stepladders down there.
