    Brilliant. I have been looking for a stove for my boat for a while and always been put off by the cost. I was half way there making my own when I came across your channel. Luckily we were on the same wavelength and my base is already done now looking for some strong bookends. Thank you for sharing 😊

    Thanks so much for sharing. Great idea. Ordered from two of your links. Couldn't figure out where to put a propane tank on our Contessa 26. This will work great when the boat is heeling. Still working on the stove clamps, as different pots, pans, and kettles come in different sizes.

      Yes indeed. Excited for summer - it's almost time to pull off the winter tarp again!

    Thanks for sharing! I was about to try how to do something like you’ve done! Now I can just copy you

      Awesome. I’m glad it was helpful. It really has worked well for me so far and I’ve loved having it all self-contained

    Cut some triangle gussets and glue them to the outside of the bookends and bench that should stop the sideways movement

    That is, what material is the entire system made of?

    Good solution but how about the fore/aft movement?

  • @tomas8592

    Thanks for your contribution. It is simple but very useful. Hello. I'm Spanish and I don't really understand English. The question is: Where do you buy the material to make the gimble?
