Finally got around to filming a review of the DIY camp kitchen that we have been using for the last few years.
Link to Robbins plywood - www.robbins.co.uk/marine/sheet...
Link to flight case hardware - www.flightcasehardware.co.uk
Pots and pans are 'TEFAL INGENIO' not Insignia, which is a vintage deodorant from the 1980's, easy mistake to make, lol.
Exterior dimensions of kitchen -
Height - 490mm
Width - 610mm
Depth - 480mm
Internal shelf sizes -
Top - 75mm
Middle - 155mm
Bottom - 200mm
Table/stand dimensions -
Height - 460mm
Width - 655mm
Depth - 520mm
The sides of the table/stand are made from 12mm plywood, the table top is 6mm plywood but there are 4x12mm plywood triangle corner braces glued and screwed underneath in all four corners to provide strength.
The entire unit is glued and screwed using basic butt joints.
Happy Camping! - Krátké a kreslené filmy
I'm coming by 4 years later. Very inspiring! Thank you for sharing your build!
I built a very similar camp kitchen for my 1965 VW bus a little over 50 years ago. Primarily 1/4 & 1/2 inch plywood & mahogany strips. We used it for many years & gave it away when we moved & got a motor home. They used it for at least another 20 years before it needed too much repair. It always created a lot of curiosity & conversation everywhere we went. I want to make one again for day or weekend trips with the grandchildren. I am getting a lot of ideas from the variety of YT videos.
Sounds like you built a solid unit Ronald! I get quite a bit of attention with this kitchen, we traveled down through Spain a couple of years ago and every time I unloaded the kitchen a crowd would soon appear to have a look. Good luck with your new build and happy travels 👍
I LOVE the extra space at the back. That was always my main complaint about this style of chuckbox: by the time you add the cooktop you really don't have that much workspace. This is a great design with so many nice touches. I'm going to make a near-perfect copy for my own setup, thank you so much for sharing!
Good luck with the build! 👍
Deceptively simple. A lot of thought has gone into this design and it flows effortlessly. What a great chuck box!
I like the wine glass holder, heh heh, very clever! The Europeans do the same thing in every RV with a wine bar and rack for glasses, same concept, but in plexiglass with blue LED lighting and it looks so elegant.
I love the fold out doors becoming supports for top ledge, the holes for hooks for the trash bag, the towel rod becoming a rolling pin (genius!), the bungee cords holding the plates down to prevent rattling. Also love the fold down shelves from the swing out doors - so clever. They do double duty holding stuff back then open to give more surface area.
Ras El Hanout spice from Morocco? You do get around. Looks like you are a good chef. Nice range of spices for Moroccan, Indian, Western foods. I looked at your video a second time. Your build is exceptional. The aircraft case hardware and corner supports, the metal sheet coating on table tops, the beautiful support system for the leaf extensions, every attention to detail including cutting holes in the shelf walls to reduce weight. The elastic cord anchor system on plates and pots is genius. I will borrow this idea from you, along with several others. I love this build. You have a keen eye for detail and a low key presentation that belies the greatness of this build. To make a functional, robust, and beautiful Chuck Box/Camp Kitchen that is also a compact size, molded to your needs, and lightweight, is a woodworking challenge. I feel a fire burning in me to make my own version. A good camp kitchen is a feat of engineering and the ultimate challenge in creative skills.
Love the pots and pans with no handles. That saves space for sure. Put a piece of soft foam between them or you will scratch the Teflon interior. Very nice build, enjoyed the tour and excellent visuals. Thanks!
Thanks! I hope you get around to building something similar, not only is it functional but it's always a talking point at every campsite. Thanks for watching 👍
Excellent setup and yes, better than plastic boxes.
Cheers Richard 👍
Remarkable organized & will be good for all camp trips, kept right along other gear! WOW!!
This so reminds me of my grandfather traveling kitchen for camping. It was so awesome.
Beautiful build! Probably the best I’ve seen and one I’d like to try building for myself. Thanks for the close up shots of the fine details
Finishing my box this week, just in time for camping trip next weekend, thank you for the inspiration!!! It has been a fun (90% of the time), learning experience (100%).
I viewed this a couple of years ago and built my own using some of your ideas here. I have since purchased a small teardrop camper with a dry galley kitchen. The previous owners built shelving which worked for them and their equipment, however, not for mine. I remembered this video and the bungee cords locking down your equipment. Great idea and I will be using the video again! Great build and great Channel! Thanks!
Cheers mate! 👍
Fantastic job! Such a functional design, which will make life very easy on the road. Love it.
Your design was my favorite, and heavily influenced our build. Thanks for the thorough walkthrough.
Beautiful. This could hold its own in an art gallery.
Just amazing, you did such a good job. You thought of everything even wine glass holders.
Nice work. No unuseable waste, a lot of practical details. It's all what you need for outdoor caming.👍
Thanks 👍
Amazingly, beautiful, elegant solution! Well done mate 😊
Excellent craftsmanship! Built a chuck box 30 years ago but your kitchen is a whole other level. Brilliant work.
Ken Baker Cheers Ken! 👍
Beautiful camping box!
Nice setup! The flight box hardware and the stainless sheet top are both very nice touches. Very well thought out and well executed!
Cheers! 👍
Now that's what I would call a very nice camp kitchen! Great job OnO!!
Cheers Craig, thanks for the comments! 👍
Hello fella, you've just made my year. I've been looking for an idea to kit out the back of my forester for weekends away and mate that kitchen is right up my street. I live at the lower end of the country and am doing my best to entice my wife to explore this country of ours together. Thank-you for your amazing video. Total admiration from the South of England.
Cheers John 👍
Really well done- I haven't seen another one like it and I have seen many in my pursuit to find plans. Love your demeanor, too, style-wise great video. Thank you for sharing the dimensions and links.
Thanks Christine! 👍
Nice work. Everything you need for a road trip.
Brilliant bit of kit. Great craftsmanship.👍
Cheers Mark👍
Awesomeness you did an excellent design congratulations on your incredible design thank you for sharing Many blessings to you
Very nice, you must be happy with that setup.
Yes! Finally! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 great video! Thanks.
This is brilliant! I love the bungee cords that fit neatly in the cut outs to keep things from bounding around. I love your pots and pans with the detachable handles and the deep set doors with storage
Cheers! 👍
Agree with the bungees. I'll be adding that to my design as well!
5 seconds in......that is awesome. Great build!!!
Cheers! 👍
Excellent build. We love it!
This is really nice. Would even be nice for day trips. You can make some elevated meals on that thing! Nice work!
Cheers Wayne! 👍
Superb matey... truly awesome setup.
Cheers
Steve.
Prob the most organized chuck box. Everything has it's place and not crammed in.
Wow what an amazing design. Great job.
Cheers John! 👍
Beautiful design, beautifully made👌
Stop in some time👍
Best one I've seen so far. I hate my plastic containers I use for everything.
This is brilliant! Well done, I'm going to have a go making one, I don't need one, but am not going to let that stop me haha
Nice Chuck Box build!
Beautiful workmanship, hi from down under 👍
Cheers mate! 👍
Awesome kitchen setup! Love seeing everyone's rendition of there own kitchens. Just posted a video of our setup. Love this. Super cool.
Cheers! I've just checked out your kitchen set up, looks good, I like the table idea 👍
Absolutely amazing! Gorgeous....brilliant!
Thanks! 👍
That is sweet man , Planned out just right good job.
We have the same Tefal pan set and put a cloth between each on to prevent scratches while we are travelling in our van
Today I saw a camp kitchen box that reminded me of our Boy Scout kitchen box from 60 yrs ago
But we did it better & most important, simpler
But this box is a work of art
Nice setup!! 👍 One of the best I've seen yet
Cheers! 👍
Even if you had a travel camper, and a floor to counter space recess to tuck this into, you could in deed
relocate it both indoors and outdoors with fairly relative ease. Thus, it could be used inside the camper
trailer or outside when it is great weather and not be troubled about it getting buggered up by foul
weather. Even if were deemed as a bit heavy to carry, you could also adapt some wheels just like on a
table saw frame to roll it towards the doorway, but then off load it.
Nice job, thanks for sharing it with us, take care and God bless Amen.
i can imagine two porters carrying this in the old days of overlanding,. very nice thanks for a closer look
Fred wilkinson Hahahaha I was thinking the same thing
Cheers Fred, I need to hire a couple of porters I reckon.....save my aching back 🤣👍
This is Brilliant! Would love to make it one for me, similar to this one. Love it!
Pretty cool! Great job, thanks for sharing!
Excellent design/work, thanks for sharing!
Cheers! 👍

Cheers mate 👍

Cheers Steve! 👍
Great video, I'm not handy with tools, but my son is so I'll show him this and some beer tokens! Thanks for sharing :)
Cheers Jeff! 👍
Beautifully done!!
You did VERY WELL on that build. It looks Sharp.
Thanks mate 👍
Very nice work! Store bought camp boxes across the pond are ridiculously pricey as well
Wow. That is incredible!
John DiGiovanni Cheers John! 👍
Dope! I'm doing long drawers out the back of my SUV but I'm gonna steal a couple of ideas from ya. Cheers!
Open Range Studios Cheers! 👍
Absolutely gorgeous.
Great work and interesting information! Thanks!!!
Nice job girl.. I use a bag and kitty litter on my bucket.. works well..
Awesome build!
Cheers! 👍
I love your chuck box! So many great ideas from your bungee cords with the little slots that hold them in place to all the fold out bits that allow for more table top area. I am amazed that you use real crocks rather than the lighter weight (and much more inferior) aluminum products! I suppose if you use this chuck box regularly you would also want to use real pots. Now as I plan my own chuck box I will plan for real supplies over simple/cheap aluminum crap.
Cheers! It does add a little more weight using decent quality kitchen gear but it's worth it. Good luck with your chuck box build 👍
You just can't beat cast iron!
Much nicer than the old Boy Scout patrol boxes!
Awesome work mate
Thanks mate 👍
Mate....! This is nice , very nice.
Very nice tips! Thanks for sharing.
That's what I'm talking about ! 👍👍👍 WOA !!!
Thanks for the share, very tidy build
Genius! Many good ideas here.
Cheers! 👍
great job. Excelent kitchen. Great video.
Cheers Raymond 👍
Beau travail 🍻! Félicitations de France 🇫🇷
SWEEEEEET setup sir.
Amazing! Kudos yo you! Wish I was that talented!
Very nice work and concept!
Cheers! 👍
Awesome Camp Kitchen！👍
Mate, fantastic video. I have been one of the guys waiting for a review for months hahaha, (also a plan asker) Luckily I went and found a South African company that builds something similar, Hectic Leisure kitchens are the boys. Not as big, and I do still have to use the extra box for pans etc. I think I'll build one like urs eventually. Great vid as always mate.
Cheers mate, the Hectic kitchens look good, probably a load easier to move around compared to my wooden beast 👍
best chuck box Ive ever seen
Cheers mate! 👍
Well done! I like your clever ideas.
Thanks! 👍
Great setup ......and like everything else on this channel ;)
Cheers!
This is awesome! I wouldn’t say it’s a DIY though. It’s too nice!
Cheers! 👍
Very sharp nice set up
Might do this for bbqing or picnics cause knowing rona u don’t trust the bbq outside and they never clean them nice build
That is remarkably similar to the one built by Lance from Lance’s Workshop CZcams channel published in 2013. It is indeed a very nice setup .
Hi, I just watched the video, it's pretty much the same design! 😳 I modelled mine on a kitchen that is in production called the 'Camp Champ', I think they started making them in 2015 - they must've took inspiration from Lance without doubt! 👍
Overland and Outdoors I just now looked at the Camp Champ. Yours is at least as good as that one if not better and they sell theirs for almost $7000..!!! The detail in yours is extraordinary. I’m happy if I can cut a 2x4 straight with a mitre saw!!
Wow. Wish I had a blueprint for this!
Beautiful!
Very nice work!
I bild one out of a aluminum box and now live is so much easyer.
Cheers! I bet the aluminium box is much lighter than my wood box.
Overland and Outdoors
Yes but yours look much better🤣
Many thanks for sharing . well done.
Nice video, keep them coming 👍
Cheers 👍
really nice work. wow
This is amazing.
Beautiful job, sir. I want the coffee pot. We made our own patrol boxes in Boy Scouts. Not as nice, obviously.
Please tell us manufacturer of coffee pot or link to where to purchase.
Nice build
Presiosa me encanto muy ordenada y con los utencilio de cocina lo principal tienes mi voto latin
Beautiful work, thank you.
Cheers! 👍
Nice mate!
