DIY Portable Camp Kitchen

[Lifelikeworm]

Fantastic! this has definitely made it onto my to-do list.

Great idea. I'm trying to see if my husband will make a portable kitchen. I would love to have something that I can have all of our dry goods in one place. To be able to move from the car and out and back again becuase sometimes we move from one camping spot to another. @ben.dicoot What is above the highest sitting gas stove in the little cubby...a cutting board??

@Brooke_Cances...It's a collapsable sink pan, good pictures of it in the beginning of the thread. It's a great idea! I'm thinking of building something very similar.

Planning on building something similar myself. Having the collapsable sink is a great idea I did not even think about this till I read about your build. Thanks for sharing

That looks like a useful bit of kit. Nice job!

Great job!
I am planning my kitchen too. I put this together in sketchup. I have the slides ordered. Construction will start this week.


Hopefully I'll have an update by next week!

 

[Sandpoint Steve]

Should be mostly done tomorrow. I have one more slide to put in.

 

[Sandpoint Steve]

Getting closer!

Thank you sir!

It's been a while so I thought I'd better post an update!
The folding leg idea didn't work as well in real life as it did in my head. So I made a frame with fixed legs (adjustable for height) that fits neatly over the kitchen when in transit. This means I can store light items on top of the frame but still slide the kitchen out for roadside stops.I also added a neat holder for my chopping board on the inside of the door. Uses 4 plastic hooks and some paracord. I've also bought a snow peak cooking pot set. I still need to fit the stainless top and a small shelf inside and it's done!

Looks great! Can't wait to see the finished product!

 

[JaimyMac630]

Great job Ben and Steve!

 

[Veggie Man]

Nice work sir! I am going the have to get started on my own setup soon.

 

[ben.dicoot]

All finished! Stainless is on. I was going to screw it down too but it seems to have stuck well with araldite. I've also picked up a snow peak stainless cooking set and kettle. I will give it a test in the next fortnight.
.
Will let you all know how it went on my big trip too. Cheers
