The two coolest things I have seen yet are: The wooden cooler (I have NO
idea how this is constructed; but the thing looks like an ordinary wooden
box, until you open it--it is lined with plastic "cooler stuff" and is
watertight, and strong enough to sit on. I haven't a clue how to get one
but our current K&Q have one. I'll ask...
Cool Thing #2: Kitchen-box benches. They look like a cross between boxes
and ordinary benches/stools: a big solid box, maybe with feet, that has a
seat on top that overlaps the box just a couple inches on each side. Then
you take off the top, and voila! Space for your pots/pans/feast gear/dry
goods.
A third Cool Thing that my sweetie promises he'll make for me some day: In
an old woodworking book from the 70's we saw a picture of a table-box. It
looks like a long, skinny box with hinges on both long sides. Then the
long sides fold up and braces turn it into a table with a dry-goods shelf
underneath. Wooden legs that store inside the box are screwed onto the
bottom. Presto! It's a kitchen table!
Just some ideas. Wish I could afford them myself; I'm still at the
"fabric-covering" stage... ;-)
