That Damn Gap!!

Like most Unicorn 3 owners I suspect we have at times dropped articles down the gap between the side of the van and the back boards entailing a knuckle ripping struggle to retrieve them from the welcoming jaws of the Alde fins..

Yes they've all been down it,TV remote control,pens,pencils,children's model car ( no I believe it was an ice cream van ) at some time or another.

Been thinking of a way to combat this and came up with the idea of placing a strip of plastic covered chicken wire type stuff in the gap so it will catch the fallen objects but still let the heat through.

Something like this:-










Before I lash out £14.60 for a roll from B&Q I wondered firstly if anyone could see any problems with this and secondly had thought of a different or better solution.

I am not intending to permanently fix it just rest it on the vertical wooden supports so if it needs to be removed it can be done so easily.

Any thoughts anyone ?

  1. It is a minor problem and have dropped a couple of things down myself.Your idea seems good although sods law states that an item will still fall between the mesh holes! The only way I see round this is to have as finer mesh as possible but then you have to secure it.An easier solution would be to buy and use a long handled grabber ,similar to the ones wheelchair users have, to pick things from the floor.
