Lance you are the Chuck Box design winner. This is the best Chuck Box concept. I love the simple nesting stand. Thank you so much, Greg

Super craftsmanship Lance! I can appreciate great cabinet work... I did it for ten years besides many years of construction. I'm planning a chuck box for my wife and I this coming year. I'm going to add a little vintage to mine since several of my camping gear are old gas Coleman items. Thanks for the how to vid.

Corey Rieman led me to your sight, brilliant sir, I have wanted to build a chuck box for a long time, but have never, until yours seen one worthy of the time. Yours is perfect, great ideas thank you for sharing.

Great Camp Box. love the stand !

Besides being an excellent video, along with the shorter one... your comments near the end are right on. Your chuck box is built for your needs, mine should be built for mine. The basic structure is so good and watching you load it up allowed me to see how I would make or use the shelving differently. Btw, sweet job on the paper towel holder. Great, great job. I’ve been searching for small kitchen ideas for my one room cabin and I think this is the way to.

Lance, first thanks for sharing your camp box. I have wanted one for years but did not have a good plan. I built one very similar to yours and it works great. We went on a 6000 mile trip around our great country and every time we unloaded it people came over to our camp site to check it out. Thanks again for a great camp box.

I want one of these for my latest popup camper. Doing the tension shelve mods but when it comes to cooking........all outdoors all the time. Everything needs to be a chuck box.

You done a wonderful job on it, in how you made it and the design of it too. A Great Job.

Thanks for showing the details of your project! Great video too. Subbing!

Well done. Thanks for sharing. I'm off the lumber yard now...

Great job..ground up from the stove ....Very nice Job!

Nice job on your kitchen/chuck box. Even though I purchased mine, they both work. It's nice to have a place for everything and everything in a place. The only problem I found with mine, the more I bring, the heavier it becomes. Cast Iron Kid

Great video and great ideas on the chuck box. I totally agree, each family or person has his or her own style and method of cooking, so no one box will fit all. Example: we usually don't cook until after dark (fall and winter) so my box includes "rope lights" for illumination. I use the rope light because they tend to attract less bugs and mosquitoes.

Great ideas , your very talented .. I love different ideas .. I will duplicate your basic design , naturally with some modifications . I need more space , but it is really good . I live down in Texas , north of Houston , we are only fare weather campers with the scouts . Thanks so much for sharing

Great video I really like the chuck box.

Thanks for the video, Much apreaciated.

This is a GREAT camping box.

Thanks a lot, I will see how I can create one too. Seems to be perfect for tents, as you use it too

very clean, nice work hombre

Good job Oren!!!

Very nice. This is on my project list. The only change I may make is to try to figure out how to make a three legged stand for stability.

Love the designs. I would love a part or material list if that was possible

Good job!

It looks really cool, you can check out the dimensions and measurements

I really like this design. So much so I just finished building. After finishing I realize how freaking heavy it is. I am pretty sure mine isnt quite as tall so I could fit it in my popup.....this means yours is probably even heavier. Mine isnt even fully loaded with gear yet. Once loaded its going to take two people to move this bad boy around. If anything, I have some good ideas for the next one....lol. It needs to be more narrow to give you more leverage to pick it up. I thing taking the area with the coleman lantern away will be just right.

I think that about sums it up. There should be no more questions about how that's made or how someone can go about making it themselves. Great work! By the way, I like Okie banjo music!!!

Nice box. I hope to build one similar soon. Suggestion: With your camp stove in the bottom your box's CG should be pretty low. You could lower your handles a bit so that when you are carrying it, the CG is higher and closer to your CG which makes heavy loads much easier to handle. You do not want the handles too low, top heavy is no good, but a little lower might help.

super cool

Flipping brilliant. Did you play Tetris growing up? I love the "every chuck box is unique" idea.

nice job!

This video is still great!

Exceptional cabinet making work, very well done! Laid out very well, and construction is solid. Love those two wings that open out for spice storage. Some feedback: 1. Get a nice paper towel rack, not that plastic one. A metal one would look so nice. 2. Don't be hung up on Coleman. They make mediocre products. So what if they are a 100 yr company. There is very little innovation and zero styling, and limited functionality. Try the latest Camp Chef stove instead. The Everest 2 is compact and going for $84 on Amazon now. This is 20,000 BTU per burner. The Coleman is 10,000 BTU per burner (they claim) and very poor gas output. Probably less than they claim. Cost is from $50 - $100 so not much difference. The other two are Camp Chef Blind Ranger II, and Camp Chef Everest 2X - both are bigger stoves with high BTUs. I find that the main requirement for a stove are compact size and high BTU output. The rest is nice to haves. The table is also very well crafted. A pleasure to look at this build. Very relevant many years later. Thank you.

Hi Lance, Thanks for sharing your hard work. I was wondering if you can explain how you created the stand. It that also rabbet and groove construction? Is there a cleat under the plywood that supports the box? I am assuming the stand top is recessed 1/2 inch from the edge to allow the door to open and close freely? One last question- did you seal the edges of the plywood? Are you concerned that they might come in contact with water from rain or such?

NOICE! 😎

1/2 inch or 3/4 inch plywood? Super design BTW.

How many sheet of plywood did yours take to build?

Thank you ! from an israeli cemper ! :)

On the fly design...that isn't so easy and nice job.

I am going to build one for the kids camping gear.

If you could mass produce these with a much lower price point, you could have a huge following. Or even home build kits

the basic plan is from boy scout sketch book. yours is nice too.

What a great design. Can you publish some of the (outside) measurements of this chuck box?

It sonlds like you don't have plans what about outside measurements and height of box and stand that would be helpful?

As always, great work Lance. I think the only thing the could have made this better is if you filmed with both your Hero3 and a new Hero3+ at the same time then you could have cut to different camera angles during the same session like the pro's. Time to go Hollywood man! J/K. Keep them coming. Looking forward to see what comes out of the shop this woodworking season. I am just gearing up myself down here in Fort Worth.

I don't have tools to make dadoes (??). Do you think this would hold together with only glue/ screw construction? 😖

gracias lances por tu video esa caja de cocina es espectacular cuando va uno de dia de campo con la familia te resuelve todos problemas de cocinar lances un saludo y un abraso de mexico df

Muy buena

Removable drawers is good. But the left and right door has the blank faceplate. If ingested dirt in the side door, you do not clean it. Do removable panels on magnets or opening on yourself and down

ya me he fabricado la mía!!! exactamente igual, pero ajustada a las medidas de mi cocina "campingaz"...ahora a disfrutarla!!! con unos 60€ en tableros, un poco de tornillería, lija y un agradable rato en el garaje de mi casa.....

My question is about how you made the base. Can you supply any details on its construction? Thanks.

I want one....just because.

Your design can be improved if you move the drawers to the middle spots so you can actually access the contents without completely removing the drawer each time.

First of all I think it's a really great idea, you made this then protect your rights before someone steals it. Just saying have a copyright so no one can copy you. I am going to build one it's awesome

man you did such a great job the wife had me build her one out of recycled pallet you ought to check out the video and let me know what you think

Lance, I was wondering now that you have used this for a while what would you do different? Thinner skin or more like what could you do to reduce some of the weight?

Used yours as inspiration. Replicated best we could and tailored it to our needs; as you suggested. Thanks for the post! I posted a KZfaq video and it's circulating Facebook. Nearly two million views on FB in less than a week!!!

Hi Lance Great chuck box ... I've been looking for plans for this type of box for some time ... but none are available. Would you be willing to create a set of plans and put them up for sale? I know it's unique to your needs but I think it would also work well for my son's Boy Scout patrol and they are looking for a good set of plans to build their own. thanks! Jason

Could you mount wheels on the bottom to make it easier to move?

6-24-15 Very nice job, I'd hate to take it out now and get it dirty. On a quick look, I would lower the silverware drawers, so you can see whats in them without having to remove the entire drawer. Also, I didn't see any mention of a finish and you've got to do that! Since you like the birch (so do I) just choose a durable clear coat. After typing all this I realized you probably have it done by now. Oh well again, nice job! So much better to watch than some kid wrack himself on a railing with a skateboard!

I have no wood tools. Do you sell these pre built? I really would like one!!

It's awesome! Could you please, email me the measurements of the box. Laura

Wow

do you have plans i could purchase from you

great job. how did you build the base?

Lance do you have plans available

What is the total weight unload? Loaded?

Can someone post the plans please. Thanks

Joli

I'm a woman and not a carpenter so how much would you sell one for? I do own a camping stove!

Do you have a materials list and dimensions for cutting the wood?

Hello, would you be willing to make me one of the camping chuck box for me? Let me know if you can.thanks, Gregory

That Was Nice & Creative (Good Job) Cant see how you would get some (Thumbs) Down Because this was informative and to the point so what you didn't have plans because one could just look an see how it was done and like you said it was tailored to your liking and not the public...Thanks for the inspiration think I am going to do the same

what would you charge to build one like that

Camp Chuck Box

What is the thickness of the plywood?

Hola q tal? Seria mucha joda si le pido las medidas para fabricarla ancho largo y altura desde ya muchas grasias y saludos estimado????

Can you please email me the measurements in PDF form?
