recently purchased 2 Igloo 40qt "Max Cold" ice coolers (rollers)...
and... in closer study, found that the 40qt rollers already have established provisions (perches) for the mounting of a raised dry box/tray...
tho' the igloo website showed no optional trays for this sized cooler :dunno:
so fark it... I made up my own using a small plastic box mfg'd by Sterlite... purchased at Target for $ 2.99 ea.
The new dry box sets on the perch at exactly the perfect height.
when the cooler's lid is pivoted down (closed)...
it's lowest interior surface rests flush on the top surface of the dry box lid, thus sandwiching that there at the perch...
and amazingly.... the cooler's lid closes completely and without restriction :xpimp:
The next picture shows the container/lid ends, after being trimmed/cut to fit.
was about a 1/4" material removed off each end.
That and there was a latch type tab lock at each end..
and those were removed and discarded as well.
