This is camping out in style.

You would believe how many homeless people and surfers really dig this set-up. It's something like most guys around here would like take to Mexico.

My stove is Stainless steel with Brass Burners I bought it at Harbor Freight for $29.oo it came from India.

(Helpful Hint: Handy wipes or even more cost effective - Baby wipes - do a fine job of cleaning stainless steel.)

I get used to the fact that I always have sand in my shower tube. But I've learned to just spunge out the last bit of water so that junk don't grow on the bottom of the curtains.

The way my tanks are set up....
The four 7 gallon tanks were found at Walmart for under $10 each. And they had  a good price of $1.80 on the plumbers strapping I used to hang them with.

One one side I've got two tanks for about 13 gallons od fresh water. and on the other side I have a nother two  7 gallon tanks, one for the shower and another one for the funnel that doubles for a urnal and sort of a sink to pour nasties down.

You'd like how easy they are to clean out.

Inside My Roll-off Camper Box

The thing that's wrong with most RV and camper set-ups is that you can't cook very well on unlevel ground. Well I just wedge something under the stove top to make it level. In this picture you may notice I've made a coil of copper tubing, (a little blurry,) I place a vented coffee can over as a secondary water heater which helps out a lot in the winter months when the water in the tanks are much colder and the external camp shower heater just doesn't do the job very well on its own.

Helpful Hint: You may have noticed that I have a Colman portable camp oven that is designed for placing on top of the stove burner. It's a fold out design, which gets to be a pain in the ass to assemble all the time. So what I did was cut out a few sheet metal corner pieces and pop-riveted the gappy corners together permanently. (Well I could always drill out the rivets if I wanted to collapse it again.) However my modification actually helps in achieving higher cook temperatures with less flame at the burner.
(I'll get a close up photo posted of it soon.)

March 7, 2010:

This week my camper box got a few new up grades. Like three way lighting and some new shelving modifications and a paper tale rack to boot. Nice

Keeping things Cold
I've been using an Iglue 5 day ice chest. Luckily they come with a garden hole  drain fitting so  I use a 3/4 inch hose adapter and reduced it down to 5/16 for a drain through the floor. When I put on the brakes, the excess water vacates automatically, which works fine in the winter. (5-7 days with block ice.) 

Helpful Hint: I attached an extra layer of insolating -foam around the ice chest to help preserve the block of ice. Also another helpful hint is that I use a plastic divider to keep the contents from touching the block of ice which would normally melt into the ice which would normaly melt the ice faster. Another handy thing that helps separate the ice from the food products is a layer of bubble rap Iay over the top of the ice.
