    They definitely don't make cast like they used to! The old ones are so much better.

    Me too! Camping is practically the only time I cook outside of work. I'm single so I rarely cook actual food at home. I've been working in restaurants since I was 15. I just turned 42 minus 2 years working for my brother on a dairy farm, minus 2 years going to The Culinary Institute of America and a year I took from cooking and sold cars at a Toyota dealership in Little Rock Arkansas. That's 22 years total.

    Actually I don't really cook at work all that much anymore.

    The Aluminum pop up camper I'd like to build will have kitchen access from the inside and outside along with on board hot water. I'll probably build it next year.

    Sounds like a great career run! I envy you from the cube farm I sit in now :) Have fun with the trailer project, it's on my list of things I want to build just don't know when I'll get around to doing it.

    Same here. These are some ideas I have so far. I'd have to get rid of my bed altogether. Not sure if I'll build it on top a flat bed so I can leave it if I want to or just build it as a permanent part of the truck.

    I commute by motorcycle and ride year round the truck is only for weekend trips.

    The Skottle looks cool but $300 is kind of nuts. It's just a harrow disc from a plow with three legs welded on. If you have a welder you could make one for ~$50 I'd guess...

    A couple of austin folks have made their own and they work great. We use them for our monthly meet to cook up breakfast tacos for the squad. I think @Spansfelder made his own. Maybe he can share a pic
