TRD Sport DCSB - Kitchen

This past weekend my son and I built a kitchen box for the bed of his truck. All in less than $100.00. He's off to live in Yosemite for about a month. Should be well tested by the time he gets home...

 

Nice use of crutches.

 

I hope the table is okay, looks a little banged up to need crutches.

 

Your fridge is more than $100! In all seriousness, good job! Have the rest of the crutches in case something happens in the wild?

 

Looks great!! Details?

 

Very cool!

What's your son doing in Yosemite? Dirtbagging it or working?

 

Nice work!

 

He and I were laughing about this part. Sad thing is we have 3 more sets laying around. Always have lived by the philosophy that you're not living unless you've taken a few trips to the ER...

 

Great idea with the crutches . the level of the land is never flat . Good job .

 

1x 4x8 sheet of 3/4" Birch plywood - $48
4x 2" rubber caster wheels (disassembled - just needed the wheels) - $3 ea
Quart of Gray Rustoleum - $9
misc electrical box/outlet/faceplate/romex/plug
Old yoga mat for the padding
Old Crutches for the legs.
Wheels are set in between the sides and the bottom using lag bolts about 8" from each end. Perfect height to ride in the troughs. The wheels on the cab end roll out and use the space between the bed and the tailgate as a natural stopping point.
Crutches are perfect to adjust for different terrains.
power just plugs into the inverter
Cutting board drawer is just using some oak scraps for the slides/rails.
All in all - pretty simple design.

 

Dirtbagging it... He and a buddy are planning to free climb Freerider.

 

Awesome!
