The Chuckbox

[Corey]

Shameless plug, but Front Runner has a sturdy table in stainless that can hang under your rack.

First Google hit.
I saw that same table in another thread somewhere.

That is one of them, the other is a clear table with no basin. This is the part I dig the most, but I am affiliated with this brand.

Hangs it right under your rack.

That is a nice table with a not so nice price tag

My chuckbox is 2-3 8 gallon Rubbermaid boxes. One holds the cooking gear, a Trangia stove set, a small GSI wok, plates, cups, bowls, utensils, etc. Another holds most of the dry food (cans, packages etc). The optional third holds a 10" dutch oven, and associated gear.

During meal times I put the 2 boxes on the camp table or its benches, and only take out the gear and food I'll need. Everything is packed away after the meal, and put back in the car. It takes some effort to pack everything in the boxes, but it helps us keep a clean camp.

When we sleep in the Element, the 2 boxes stack on a front seat, with the dog's bed on top. There is space for a small cooler on the other front seat, with 6' of sleeping space for 2 adults in the back. I have to leave some non-food gear outside in a heavy duty Rubbermaid box (industrial Brute model) and a waterproof duffel.

There are already two chuckbox threads where members are posting pics besides my own thread.

I just picked up one of these tables. Very well made, light weight, should last quite a long time. Let me know if you have questions about it.

I have one of those. Big and vulnerable to water damage. It lives in the garage.

Still in early testing

I found a neat box that was easy to convert to a chuck box. I borrowed from the Kanz method of building, but at a fraction of the cost.

What was the original use of that box? That is cool.

I like having this kind of thing but most of my camping is in bear country and you end up having to unload all food items into bear boxes so I quit building these type boxes. But cool designs guys.
