Van conversion.

[darrenf]

Hi Mr JD,

How are you getting on with your cabstar ?

I've also just bought a secondhand cabstar & am thinking about how to convert it, probably gonna go for the angle iron / marine ply option too. You thinking about a toolbox at all ?

for the toolboxes why not look at the van safes as used by builders? they come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and supply secure storage for saws etc. should be something out there for any budget. http://www.am-tek.co.uk/categoriesAndProducts.asp?categoryID=99 is what i use, but there other makes on the market too.

Go for box section rather than angle, its easier to weld and you can use tec screws to attach your sheeting, the screws are hidden inside the box and are MUCH quicker than bolting. Also 1mm galvanised sheet is lighter and easier to signwrite than ply.
