RV Oven Bracket

Designing and building a custom bracket.

When the time came to replace the microwave / convection oven in this RV, the decision was made to replace the oven with a different style. The problem with that was there was no cabinet above the microwave to secure it. To solve this, a new bracket was designed and built to allow the new oven to be installed. The bracket had to be able to support 150 pounds, as well as hold it secure while the RV was going down the road.
