My newly acquire dingo offroad camper has a home made slide out kitchen that has seen better days, i see units like the Drifta being made of plywood but wondered if they will sag over time ?
Thinking of maybe a steel tube base frame of say 20mm than build the plywood unit on top, this should prevent future sagging ?

Could you move the legs in a bit? Maybe 1/3 of the length.

I pulled the whole unit out before Easter and found that it has some angle iron screwed to the back side and it appears its only the front that has sagged.
The rest is in reasonable condition so i'll just make some new drawers/ doors and put a new work surface on it maybe s/steel or laminex and add some angle to the front.
