The item in my kit

I bought KOWOOD Quarter-Inch Router Bit Set as part of my camper van equipment.

The timber drawer needed a measured layout and fitted parts before lining and slides. This router-bit set belongs to my purchased woodworking kit around those construction stages.

Where it fits my build

I built the storage-bin drawer frame on the patio from a measured layout. I joined the timber, added inside corner brackets and fitted the base before moving on to the lining.

I cut the rubber mat with scissors, cleaned the wood and used spray adhesive in sections with a roller. Screws and washers attached the mat, and the slides joined the drawer to its surrounding cabinet frame.

My build notes

The drawer went through several distinct stages before it could slide in the cabinet. The photographs show the exposed frame first and the lined drawer later, making the changes in access and fastening positions visible.

Measuring, framing, lining and slide installation were separate stages of the drawer assembly.

Alternative products

Two alternatives to compare

The RYOBI set offers another assortment of routing profiles. KOWOOD's smaller set narrows the selection, making the included shapes more useful to compare than the case size alone.
