Microwave question!

Hi all! I have a small microwave that I was thinking about putting in my egg. I have a window mounted AC that plugs into the cabinet by the bed. That should accomodate a small MW shouldn't it?

Registry
If the outlet is adequate for the A/C, it should run the microwave.
One thing to note...
The plate in the microwave should be removed for transport, otherwise the bouncing will eventually cause flatspots on the carousel wheels and cause an awful squealing noise.

Thanks for the tip. Question: is there a way to attach it to the counter that let's you travel with it?

You could add something like these, but then part is "permanetly" attached to the counter. Because of that, maybe you'd prefer to have it ride on the floor and it put it on the counter at destination? Super Grips - White - Ready America MRV-200WT - TV Accessories - Camping World

I made brackets out of 1/8" thick aluminum angle, and put some rubber no skid strips between them and the microwave. I put a longer screw in an existing hole on each side of be microwave to hold it.

just wondering, if the 3m product, that is double faced tape might work for a microwave application like this (or even other things), the product has a pull tab I believe is non permanent, that can be used for many applications, even though the advertising usually is for hanging pictires etc.. on walls in the home. not a big fan of drilling holes if I can keep from it, however, if not here we come black and decker

hmmm ???
