These are not your everyday patrol box. First
they are aluminum which makes them lighter and more durable than wood.
After years of camping experience by many in the troop, we designed and
had someone fabricate these quality aluminum patrol boxes. A couple of
things that constantly bothered me about typical wooden patrol boxes were,
first they were heavy and second you really couldn't put a LP tank and stove
in them. For the same outside dimensions we have accomplished everything,
in a lighter and more durable box. This is the complete and ultimate
patrol box.
We have listed the main features. A detailed inventory can be seen below
along with a way to order one of these first class boxes. We have ceased
selling plans for these patrol boxes.
- Aluminum construction - won't rust, rot,
splinter, or fall apart
- Very strong - will easily support 300
lbs standing on it (we've tried)
- Very light - the box empty weighs in at
just over 40 lbs - half the weight of one with plywood
- Holds 5 lb LP tank and camp stove
- Everything stored in Rubbermaid
containers - keeps things clean and organized
- Bread boxes for paper towels; foil,
zip-loc bags, garbage bags; utensils
- Two spring-loaded recessed handles on
each side for easier carrying by younger scouts
- Baked on powder coat finish - as strong
as the aluminum it's covering
This has had many hours of thought and
engineering put in it. After
we had several troops want the drawings, we filed for a patent. Below is
some basic drawings of the boxes. review the pictures, drawings and plans
before and let us know if you would like to order, see below.
