custom soap dish for cooktop/sink
Verfasst: 06.06.2015 03:37
Greetings
I have been wanting to build a purpose-made soap dish for the cooktop/sink in the James Cook. With some thinking I came up with the solution.
I want to be able to remove it for cleaning but secured from jarring loose when driving.
I made one out of spare material that I have at home. Total cost = €0
a stainless steel dish, a can lid, and a piece of strong magnet from computer harddisk drive

the challege is to find a perfect can lid to support the stainless steel dish
here you can see the indented center of the stainless steel dish - i selected a can lid that has the right diameter and depression
