Alternate method:

#3.  Place a barrel bolt at each end of the 2X horizontal member.

Engage the barrel bolt into a drill hole in the vertical member.

(This approach will allow the removal of the 2X member, during cleaning).

Alternate method:

#1. (the horizontal member is shorter in length than the vertical member)

Hinge one end, allowing the 2X member to swing ''up'', and

place a barrel bolt on the opp end.

(Engage the bolt into a hole in the vertical member).

#2.  If the horizontal member is longer than the vertical member---

cut the horizontal member in half.

Locate a hinge at each end, that joins with vertical member.

Locate a barrel bolt, at the joined horizontal 2X member.

A couple of ways to solve the front timber,

1. A couple of pins inserted from each end.

2. Kreg screw it the same way

3. Use rare earth magnets

4. build the 2x2 into a tray then simply slide it out and then tip it out
