Container for vegetables and bottles

Container for vegetables and bottles.

Contemporary small apartments are also equipped with miniature cellars. Therefore, you should think about it, what can be done, so that their surface is properly managed. We propose to build a very simple and practical vegetable container with several drawers, for the storage of potatoes, carrots, onions etc.. Such a container, shown in the figure below, it may be provided with a plurality of laterally projecting pins to accommodate empty bottles, that won't get dusty, and at the same time they will be properly ventilated before being used again.

The container consists of four plates (a, b, b’, c) cut from plywood thickness of about 15-20 mm or from carpentry board. Thick can also be used (25-30 mm) chipboard, which, however, is very brittle and more difficult to process (its sharp edges are easily destroyed, its sharp edges are easily destroyed), and besides, it is heavy. The sides of the container are connected with wooden thick pins 8 mm and wood glue. The structure is supported on four blocks (e1, e2, e3 i e4) heights 100 mm to isolate the bottom plate of the container from the basement floor. The front part of the container is completely covered at the bottom by a strip d yes, that a box is created there (not extendable) enabling the storage of more heavy vegetables, for example, cabbage. Above this box, the sides of the container are provided with horizontal strips with a cross-section of 20×20 mm serving as drawer guides. On the side of the container there are triangular slats equipped with wooden pegs with a diameter 12 mm for hanging bottles on them.

The drawers of the container have their bottoms pierced with a drill bit in diameter 26 mm (holesaw powered by an electric drill), to allow air access to the vegetables on the bottom.

Paint the entire container with wood oil enamel – first with a primer, and then with a topcoat twice. The color of the paint is completely arbitrary.
