  • I love backpacking and my wife does not love backpacking. Something about digging a hole to poop in is a deal-breaker for her. As a compromise, we've settled on car camping. It's something we now enjoy doing together. Something else we enjoy doing together is cooking. It didn't take long for us to realize we could up our car camping kitchen situation with a chuck box.

    I like the idea of no hinges to wear out. Now to design it as a indoor/outdoor kitchen for a truck camper. So it sets on the side overhang and doesn't interfere with the doorway.

    Nice ! Your video is well done and explains so many details that others do not. But first, let me compliment you on your workshop. During my 50+ years working in construction type work, I always stole (with my eyes) ideas from others to use at home in my workshop. You my friend, get the 1st Prize for the best home work shop in all these years I have ever seen. Clean, organized, and a cozy place to work, all at the same time. Perfect ! and my hat is off to you. Again, thank you for the video on the chuck box. I will be copying some of your ideas on my new chuck box.

    Very simple and elegant design. I'm a cabinetmaker and simple designs are the best for continual use. Well done sir.
    Protip. Use paste wax on all sliding tracks and the edges of the panels to fit into them so that they will slide easily and smoothely. EDIT: use painters tape on the sides of the box when you paint so you don't have to be quite as careful when you're painting.

    Well done!!! I found that the bottom of my Coleman stove got very hot during a prolonged cooking session. In fact, I melted the top of a plastic cooler. If yours gets hot also, you might want something to insulate it from your wooden top, or perhaps something to elevate it slightly to allow airflow between the bottom of the stove and the wooden surface. Happy camping.

      @@ImGonnaMake,
      How about making the bottom of the “serving tray” out of either a plastic cutting board or a hardwood laminate that you keep treated with butcher block oil? Then do the cutting on the bottom side, turn it back upright to serve. Keeps the cutting scars out of sight when you serve and you can sand it smooth again w/o disassembly if it gets too worn. Also easier clean after cutting.

    Superb video, fantastic design and craftmanship of an enormous box. You have managed to construct a box big enought to pack every conceivable gadget, doodad and fandango that you could possibly imagine including the kitchen sink. Where is the refrigerator? Where do you put food and caned goods etc, another huge box waiting to be constructed? Now what about tents, clothing and bedding, another huge construction? With a bit of careful thought and planning and using suitable compact and packable/stackable mutifunctioning items the volume could have been about a quarter the size. I'm waiting to see a good compact camp box to be designed by someone. Why not try that project. See how small and compact it could be made while still providing all the necessities.
