DIY Van Kitchen! | How We Cook On The Road

    Have you built a vented compartment for the gas bottle? I found this handy definition of a gas locker to explain what I'm referring to. "A gas locker is an additional storage compartment for the gas bottle, which has a vent near the floor. Since gas weighs more than air, if the gas cylinder leaks, the gas would escape through the vent instead of into the motorhome". I think this is probably pretty important to address because gas pooling at floor level could lead to an explosive result.

    If you take the knobs off the front that adjust the gas. Take all the grease off and then use silicon grease you will then be able to turn the flame down to be able to simmer. They are actually a wonderful stove once that has been done. It’s like cooking on a gas stove at home.

It’s a great table and folds up nicely, though it is a bit on the smaller side. The chairs were from a site called ‘vidaXL’. If you search the term ‘Outdoor Bistro Chairs 2 pcs Solid Acacia Wood’ on their site you should find them! Hope that helps :) - Kendall and Glenn

    The concept is great but I think you need to reconsider the gas cylinder in the cabinet. You won't stand a chance if there is a leak, unless it is vented to the outside and Gas Certified. Risky guys, also highly illegal!! Cheers from the Sunny Coast in Queensland.

    Thanks a lot Harry! How exciting for you mate. Happy to answer questions for sure. The box on the back is from a trailer parts store in Australia but I think your best bet is to just look for a trailer parts store where you are for storage boxes for work utes and trailers. Secondly we do have a water tank. It's only 35L unfortunately. We modified the Puma water tank from "front runner outfitters" but annoyingly there is a bit of dead space above it. If we had more time during our build I would have tried to modify better or used their product as inspiration to fabricate my own. We have our entire camper build series on our channel so definitely have a look and it may help with your build :)

    I've been thinking about a similar kitchen but building up instead out like you guys. I was worried that it would become annoying having to exit the cab every time we want to get to the back. Has that been an issue for you?

  • @KendallandGlenn

    @KendallandGlenn

    3 жыл бұрын

    It's not an issue for us. We never really kept that space free anyway so wouldn't regularly go from the front into the back without leaving the cab so it made sense. Also allows for more seating, and our centre console stores so much stuff! Check out our new build however as we made some upgrades to this whole set up. Video on our channel :)
