    Congratulations to both of you. Seeing you both involved for me was the best part. I hope you have great trip together thanks for the ideas on what to do with my setup there is a very good chance it will end up a lot like that because I honestly get a headache every time I start to think about it.

    Gday mate, been watching since your first Hyperflame videos and that’s what prompted me to buy one. Just wanted to show my appreciation for your craftsmanship. You take the time, you prep the area and it looks like you take the utmost care. Of all the CZcamsrs I’ve watched do DIY I don’t think I’d want anyone else working on my own vehicle. Congrats so far and best of luck on your first trip in the new rig.

    Great job mate! Could put a little hanger to hang the gas bottle of the end there too (plus the obligatory bottle opener on there somewhere too :D )

    @kabluwi Pƙed 2 lety +1

    I'd look at painting the big w drawers black and keeping them tbh, the clear fronts are good, and they weigh nothing, might grab some myself

  • @tbillington

    Great end result. If the tabletop doesn't hold up, just glue a super thin sheet of stainless to it.

    Mate connect a short length of string between the fold down table and the support bars, then you can just pull the support frame out and the table will drop down
 hope this is a helpful idea!

    • @explorebound
      @explorebound  Pƙed 2 lety

      Yeah they've actually impressed us, we were expecting them to fall apart with what we subjected them to on our trip but they're faultless so far 👌

  • @fatmanoverlanding
    @fatmanoverlanding Pƙed 2 lety +3

    Looks like a bought one. Well done.👌Just keep an eye on that vinyl wrap that's under the stove, and I'd colour those screw heads with a black Sharpe so they don't stand out too much.

  • @billolgaau
    @billolgaau Pƙed 7 měsĂ­ci

    We started using those plastic draws over 20 years ago in our old Pathfinder & still use the inside draws to drop into our slide draws in our Patrol.
    They have been all over Australia from 12 Simpson crossings, 15 High Country, to the Canning Stock Route.
    We pack them at home & drop them in - quick & easy as a "Day box" - ""Cooking Box" etc.

    Add heat shrink over the steel rods, will help protect and reduce rattle. Great work on the set-up and my money is on the temp set-up being used for quite a while as long as it functions how you both want. The front bench can house a step while travelling as the benches are pretty tall. Cheers đŸ»

    looks amazing mate, some great idea's there. One suggestion I would make, if that vinyl doesn't last, get some thin stainless sheets cut to size and stick them down.... highly durable, very good for preping and cleaning on (essentially don't need cutting boards then). Just a thought :)

      Haha I knew I forgot something!! 😅 The long term plan for this setup is to have a large water tank mounted under the tray so an in-canopy sink wasn't as neccessary, for our recent trip we used a collapsable sink unit which we setup on the rear undertray drawer to use.

  • @TheBraddles82
    @TheBraddles82 Pƙed 2 lety

    Hey mate I’m quite inspired by that build, however I am concerned you don’t have enough space between the stove and the box to the left of it. I realise you didn’t build a house, but for interest in a house there’s a distance of 200mm required between the edge of a gas cooktop and a combustible material.

      @explorebound  Pƙed rokem +1

      Thanks mate appreciate that!! Hmm I don't have an exact weight unfortunately but the entire frame was extremely lightweight, could easily lift it with one hand. The only heavy componants were the wooden benchtops (could be replaced by folded aluminium to save weight), and the drawer slides which were quite heavy.

      Close to $800 for everything including the stove (both sets of drawer runners were $300 by themselves!). That was buying most materials at Bunnings though, and a few people have commented that it's far cheaper going to aluminium suppliers so could no doubt shave a bit of the cost off there. 🙂

    The first time I’ve ever regretted listening to you: Goliath slides from Bunnings.

    Everything else you do is amazing, but this was a disaster.

    • @explorebound
      @explorebound  Pƙed rokem

      Which brand to use for each part comes down to personal preference I guess mate - I’ve used Goliath runners for multiple projects and never had any issues, pretty happy with them for the price. I’m assuming you‘ve had a bad experience with them, so you might want to look at more premium runners instead.
