"This is Not a Storage Compartment"

OK, OK, I get it.  We shouldn't be storing stuff in the dead wasted space between the converter and the water heater...but we decided to anyway.  In our camper this is under the back bottom bunk.

You know those extra lengths of hose and power cord that you should have with you for "just in case" but have never touched?  We decided this dead space would be perfect for them.  Not super easy to access, but close enough if we ever need to get to them for some far-away utility post.  To avoid the hoses/cords from hitting against anything in the compartment we zip-tied them in their neat coils and hung them from a big hook screwed into the back upper frame of the compartment.

 Then Kevin cut a little access door into the plywood base.  

The thumb hole he made is right next to the "This is Not a Storage Compartment" sticker, which makes us feel like rebels ;)
