Before I begin. My weight backslid a couple pounds. Currently at 223.5 after seeing a low of 221.1 lbs. Sigh... will need to get busy to reach my goal of <220 before June 10th, which will end my 1 year weight loss mania that began at 291.6 lbs. Heck <221.6 will be cool too. 70lbs lost. Lately, I've just been eating too much of my sourdough bread, unsalted roasted peanuts, and getting food or a beer when out biking for more than a couple hours.
No regrets, I needed to have some fun before the final push. The last 10lbs I want to lose should come off once Summer warms up and I can start doing week long bike touring trips. Lower 210's and staying under 220lbs over the Winter is my long term goal from here on out.
Anyhoo, the truck camper's kitchen drawer bag project is done!
First a couple photos of what the drawer looked like before I made the bags. It was semi-organized dumpster diving AND I didn't have room for the 3qt instant pot in the drawer that you see in the After photos. So this project fixed a bunch of problems. And I designed the bags so I don't have to fully remove them if I'm just stopping somewhere to make a quick lunch. Some bags use mesh fabric for air drying. The hooks I added to the bumper swing arms work great for hanging the bags when I'm doing some proper cooking at the tailgate.
I'll make a youtube video next time I'm out camping. I will say, I'm a big fan of adding aluminum structure to sewn bags. Lightweight and functional. If I build my own van, I think i'll do cabinets that way. 3/4" thick wood is way too heavy and wastes space
