Pullout cutting boards on a frameless job
1/21/16
Only thing I can thing of is the cutting board rides on wooden cleats and has a mini "front" attached to the cutting board. Everything has 3/32" ish gaps. Anyone ever do this? Another option?

The last few I've done I mounted on accuride cutting board slides with lock out feature behind a standard drawer front affixed to the door below.
The door/drawer face were attached to a soft close pull out waste can.
The last one was speced with a round hole in the board to allow cuttings to be raked into the waste can below. The board can also be lifted out easily for use on the counter or to be cleaned.
The board is separated by a horizontal partition between the board and can. HTH

So in other words either
A. Attach a front and treat it like a drawer or
B. Attach it to the back of a trash can pullout door? Thanks.

Actually I dowel the drawer front to the top of the door leaving the same reveal of course, so it appears as a door with a drawer front above it.
Same thing I guess.

I've done several of these, my design seems to keep evolving. The last one I did was the best. I made a melamine drawer box with no bottom and used KV cutting board slides that lock out with a detent at full extension. I put 2 cleats running front to back on the inside of the box to keep it square since there was no bottom. The drawer front mounted to the box just like the rest of the drawers. I made the cutting board to fit on top of the box with 2 cleats mounted underneath to keep it centered. That way you can easily lift it off for cleaning. I also put a 4" hole in the back of the cutting board to drop food waste into the trash receptacle below. It worked very well and the owners were happy with it.

I use a cutting board slide from KV (I think) installs into the line drill holes. I short the drawer under the BB by 28mm.
