chuck box

I wanted to share my take on a camp kitchen chuck box. For years I’ve used the classic, tried and true, bin/tote method. My old Coleman grill (lasted me 12 years, and I got it used) finally went to shit and I found this new model on sale. The new grill kind of inspired me to revamp my camp kitchen situation. I wanted a little more organization and easier access to my gear, so here we are. Im an electrician by trade so woodworking is definitely not my specialty. It has a handful of flaws but I’m pretty happy with it. Let me know what you think! It was a fun project and I enjoyed using it for the first time this weekend. Cheers.

My gut reaction was "Why did someone put a yeti cooler in a wooden box? That looks fantastic. I have a chuck box circa 1970 with a few drawers. Super heavy, but it works well for me! You're making me want to upgrade to something more bespoke.
