About a year ago there was a thread discussing what, in your opinion, was the best camping gadget or idea.
Well, roughly 12 months have since elapsed. Many of us will have been out there with our camping gear; others of us are finalising matters at
home prior to a departure in the 'cooler' months.
So................what's the best gadget/idea/modification you've done in the last year or so?
Mine is a Black Widow metal table. It is
well made. Very expensive, IMHO, but a great bit of gear. I have brackets on each of the sliding _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx in the back of my 4x4, so either side can be used at will. Dead easy to set up & arrange lunch on, or as a work surface for smoko etc.....
It stores on its edge in a bracket bolted to
my home-made storage unit, adjacent to the 12 V fridge. Takes up next to no room & is very accessible.
I have brackets on the offside of the 4x4, just over the back wheel, so I can use the table under the
shelter of my tarp, which is permanently attached to the vehicle. So far, I have only used the table in that position once, on a hot day in some stony plains (I.e. no trees for shade) country.
And finally I have a set of brackets on another metal table which is used for everything near the
camp-fire. So the metal work surface area is now almost doubled in size. Can put hot billies or
camp ovens on the Black widow table; can draw up a chair and use it as a dining table; it's easy to clean; it's easy to erect & easy to dismantle; has an adjustable leg for un-even terrain; it's easy to clean.
Now it's over to you.....................
