Kitchen


  • The kitchen will be situated toward the tailgate of the truck, next to the sanitation area
  • It must be able to stow away and be out of the way due to safety concerns
    • If an emergency arises, occupants must be able to leave the camper quickly. There must be as few obstructions as possible by the doorway in order to ensure safe and quick leave of the space.
Ideas so far:

Actual sink
  • Unlike most other campers out there, this camper will feature an actual sink, similar to those found in Tiny Houses.
  • Some campers have fold out plastic sinks or buckets. Backpacking supply offers folding or pop up sinks that stow away in a small footprint
  • The sink top can be covered by a cutting board or other platform when not in use to increase usable surface area.
  • Considering: Lillangen (Brand), a small rectangular sink with built in lip

Sliding sink
  • the sink will be mounted to a sliding platform that will allow use in the kitchen when necessary, but sit above the wheel wells when in storage
A protective kitchen cover
  • If going with the idea of making the camper a bathtub, the kitchen will need a cover of sorts to keep water out in the event of a shower or potty use
  • Covering up the kitchen when going potty is important due to sanitation concerns
  • It is undesirable for kitchen items to become wet upon showering
  • Refer to the "sanitation" section for more details on covers
