The Tent Stake Bag, a new product.

The Tent Stake Bag, a new product.

I am excited to present my / our next product, a tent stake bag. I understand  there are already bags for tent stakes, but hopefully our take is unique and useful. It has been sized to handle your typical stake hammer as well as a generous amount of stakes. The material (600D Polyester Twill) has a design that identifies the contents of the bag, and should stand up well to its intended purpose.  Instead of the typical drawstring bag, ours is a zipper making it easy to get to the contents and secure them. Check it out here.

Camping Spice Rack from a Tackle Box

Camping Spice Rack from a Tackle Box

I am always  thinking about camping problems and potential solutions that I can make in the basement. These solutions have to be useful, and still unique (as in there is not already a thousand examples on Esty). One of the problems I have been noodling over is how to store and carry cooking spices in a convenient way. After much thought and experimentation  I have come up with... nothing. At least nothing I can make and sell.  But during this process I did notice something  that you might find useful.   Certain tackle boxes are the perfect size to hold standard spice jars. Pictured above...

New from the Workshop.. a Flatware roll for the Camping Kitchen Box

New from the Workshop.. a Flatware roll for the Camping Kitchen Box

Fresh from the workshop is the new Flatware Roll created for the Camping Kitchen Box. This is designed to hang from the back of the box in place of the paper towel holder.  When it is not hanging, you can roll it up and stash it neatly in one of the drawers of the Camping Kitchen Box, keeping your flatware organized and rattle free.  If you are interested in  purchasing one you can check out on the store here. The cutlery roll is sewn by me on my mother's 1956 Singer, which had recently come into my possession. Sewing was not my mom’s passion,...

A Stand for the Camping Kitchen Box Chuck Box

A Stand for the Camping Kitchen Box Chuck Box

Some one wrote (messaged? that is what we do now right?) the other day and asked about a stand for the Camping Kitchen Box. We don't make one as we have not been able to come up with a better solution then what is already available.  What follows are some suggestions arranged them from lightest to heaviest, which also pretty much corresponds to "Might be a little wobbly" to  "Very Sturdy" Coleman Stove Stand The first solution is the  Coleman Stove Stand  It weighs less then 4 pounds and it will hold up the box no problem, but will probably have the most sway compared to other...
