A place for camp kitchen, chuck box and car camping related Ideas
I'm not sure where I got the idea to build a Chuck Box but once I got started the idea seemed really cool. I guess having our plastic bin turn to chaos way too many times during our camping trips was a big factor.

Drawers
Wood drawers are very cool, but they do add weight. For now I'm going with 99 cent plastic shoe boxes. They are washable available everywhere and at .99 if one breaks no biggie.
Shelf below the box
A shelf added below the box can be nice for water and it adds stability.
But it also adds complexity and size, you need a place to put it....

Angled Legs
Angled legs look like a nice idea but are they needed? The angle looks like it would add stability but, don't they end up being too long or too heavy?
Nesting boxes
The Idea of nesting boxes is pretty interesting to me. I think the idea is good but it is more stuff to build and I'm not sure if it is worth it for our needs.
Fold Down Front Doors
For me the fold down front doors have too many disadvantages. First off if you get too much weigh on them your whole box could end up on your feet, also you would need to lean over the door to reach into the box or to reach the top of the box. Another dis advantage would be that used as work space they block access to the items in the box.
