Fitted the drawers I got from @northwest to the van.
These will be for consumables, small parts like switches and contactors, crimping tools, etc.
I would use it for tools but I don't keep tools in the van overnight. Not worth the risk.
Shelf had to be cut down and a return added in the box pan folder.

Not made by me but designed and drawn ready for a friend to 3D print for me, he said it was a PITA to do.
It is a clasp so that when I remove the Kriga bag I can just clip the straps into it to stop them flapping about leke below.
I will be making a new rack plate without the hole and text cut out and some extra slots for the straps that will get permanently fixed to the plate.
Like so.

What files do you want?

im actually building something ive wanted to test for ages as ive got the chance to test it out to prove if im right and it will work
so im welding 1mm steel to 1.5mm steel with an arc welder with 2.0 arc welding rods
but im not the patient one but in this case i have to be, slow and spot weld in different parts as i build the unit up
just the weather is holding me up

Not according to the blurb in the manual. First time I've opened it tbh:
I could print it and you could cast it?

There is an old welder's trick - welding a tin can with an electrode.

Thin sheet with arc is not difficult but its much easier if you use 1.6mm rods and an alu plate backing to pull some of the heat away.
I think quickest will be to use bandsaw.
Ah, then I'd have to fix furnace! My casting so far has not been too successful yet. I will get back onto the projects soon..

My brother made this axe. At a blacksmithing day down near Farthing Corner. He says himself that it's pretty rough and ready. Flat piece of mild steel bent and shaped to form the eye and blade and then a billet of high carbon steel forged in to form the cutting edge.
