Tom,
Max size before tailoring is 100 x 120 cm...marine ply is overkill, external ply ideal.

Nice job with that box, love it. B)

I'd do similar but I want max space and with the front seats extra far back space is at a premium.

Do it right - use Hammerite
When the blue light is flashing I am kidding.

Finished my load deck this morning. Built it so that it covers the folded rear seats (incase the missus and the sprogs need to use it) but you can also take half of it out (by breaking the sealing bead around the edge) so that 1 rear seat can be used independently. Leveled it with some adjustable furniture/cabinet legs.

Change of design.

After looking at it earlier I decided to change the design slightly. As you can see I have removed the 2 legs at the rear in favour of just one, this allows me to use the 2 grey storage boxes underneath the shelf.

Also added a pic of the adjustable legs underneath and how ive kept the seats down temporary, just awaiting a few extra bits to make it a neater job.

Bloody love that :woohoo:

Does it just lift out then when you need to use the back seats and does it fix to the floor?

Its self supported by adjustable legs (about £3 each from B&Q). Couple of big un's at the back and 4 smaller ones near the front.

You cant see it in the pics as its covered by the rubber matting, but the deck is split down the middle. By breaking the sealing bead around the edge you can then fold back the rubber liner and remove half of it....or all of it if you wished. Strong enough for me to climb all over it (9mm ply with 3mm rubber).
