total success. Easiest camp set up I've ever had. Didnt have a second thought about packing up the kitchen at night and pulling it back out in the morning. Didnt take a picture but made having lunch real fast on the side of the trail a breeze.

So i finally got to finish this project. Sure took longer than I first expected. So these are the mounts I chose for the bed. One at each of the four corners. What's nice its they detach and the part that remains behind is not taller than the head of the bed bolts. Add a couple of rathect...

Sorry it's been a while but this covid-19 is killing my ability to work on projects. Downside of my job is while everyone else got weeks off work I got more hours. Anyways I was able to get a day in the garage to knock this out. I have a roof top tent showing up on monday and needed space to...

Got back into the garage finally. It's starting to take shape. The large pull out section will end up having a lid that opens on top and a couple of drawers that pull out. The locking stove slide is done and I have a strap that holds the stove in place. It will have 1 more flat pull out from...

So after being tired of digging through plastic bins to set up my camp kitchen, I decided to copy and make my version of a slide out kitchen. Taking advantage of the fact a new shell is going on my truck it will be made of wood and have space on top for storage accessible through the side window...

Thank you

Welcome. It's good to see another member from the SCV.
