    Can't wait to see this new build in action. I'm curious to see how you'll be doing cooking now, the water outlet is a great feature and the bed is no longer so claustrophobic, well done!.

    I’ve watched this channel since 2019 right before I pulled the trigger to buy my Jeep and I’ve always used your build as inspiration.
    I love how much you’ve grown and the following has grown! Love to see it sir! Keep it all up.

    Thanks for the mention it means a ton!
    Great video as always 👍🏻

      I thought it was interesting to see him build that because I first saw that done on your channel a few months ago via the Minimalist Overland Jeep Kitchen Setup. I was checking out that video before I went to Death Valley and Alabama Hills back in March. Good to see the knowledge being shared among others.

    I grew up in my father’s tool & die shop starting at age 12. Everything was clamped down and the feed of the material was by manual crank or automatic. When i started woodworking I was terrorized by pushing my hands towards an active blade but I created some awesome things. I then became an orthopaedic surgeon and spent 38 yrs treating saw injuries. There are tools to minimize injuries and I hope what you showed to inexperienced people doesn’t hurt someone.

    Love your travel videos, I have done a much less elaborate sleep platform in my JKU so I was intensely interested in your build. I learned a lot. (mainly that your carpenter skills are far superior to mine), I spent a summer in that jeep after I retired, now I'm the primary care giver for my parents, so there is a lesson there in the timing for adventures. Cease the day! And thank you for one of the best 30 minutes I've spent on You Tube.

    Nice build, Drew. You should use the Raptor liner on the drawers and other wood, instead of staining and sealing it. It'll add an extra layer of protection, and looks great too.

    • @gwot

      Spray liner's usually pretty thick, it might not fit afterwards.
