[C320-list] A COOLBOX/FRIDGE SOLUTION

[JJ Morrison]

Chris;
I just made the lenghwise  pieces long enough to fit right to the end of the cool box and the end pieces fit in between these to hold them in place, once food, beer etc etc is in the box it also helps to hold the foam in place. If any of them get damaged it is a simple matter to pull it out and replace; also makes cleaning easier.
Cheers
