Dishwasher Secret Compartment

Here is a way to hide your most important stuff. Hiding it in the bottom of the dishwasher will give you a lot of room and no one will ever think about looking under it.

Materials needed:
1) Drawer slides
2) 3/4" Plywood
3) 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" wood
4) 3/4" Wood screws
5) 1 5/8" Wood screws
6) 3/4" Metal screws

1) Remove the bottom facing from dishwasher so you can access the motor area.

1) Figure out what wiring needs to be moved out of the way.
2) If there is a wire box then remove that.
3) Take the wires from the box and tape/zip tie them as high up as possible.
4) Tape any other wiring up out of the way.

1) See where drawer slides attach too. You may need to do some improvising with wood or metal to attach it to the legs.
2) Mark for metal screws.
3) Drill holes as big as the main part of the screws, not as big as the threads. The threads need to catch.

1) Attach the drawer slides to the legs

1) Cut out a 3/4 inch plywood that will fit for the base of your dishwasher.
2) Measure where the motor will hit the plywood.
3) Cut out the area for the motor.

5) Attach the 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" with 1 5/8" wood screws.

1) Attach the drawer slides to the 3/4" piece of plywood with 3/4" wood screws.
