Using WRC and 1/4" birch plywood I managed to get this previously 20lb box down to 5-6 lbs!

What are the dimensions? I need to re weight mine....
Good job. I can't work with wood and am impressed by people who can. Mine would have to have three legs so it didn't rock.
Great job, very nice looking piece of kit.
Dimensions are as follows. .. exterior : 24" long, 12" wide, and 14" tall. The legs and stove support are 22" long. The leg support pieces are 12x3 1/2x3/4". Handles are roughly 12 x 3/4 x 1 " with the inside cut off at a 45 degree angle at 2 inches, then trimmed down to 1 inch... if that makes sense

Thank you, Mine is almost the same size, built with baltic birch and no internal frame(epoxy fillets) but have a tray, and I need to re weight it cause I think it is quite a bit heavier than 6 pounds....!
Thanks for all the compliments! I will re check the weight. I used my fishing scale which has K's and lbs. Maybe I read the metric side! When you pick it up it really is light though. I put my whole kitchen kit in it to include 2, one lb bottles of propane and it was 27lbs, now I'm thinking that I was looking at the metric side of the scale. I will check it again tomorrow
Either way it sounds nice and light. And it looks roomy!
Well I stand corrected! 4.75lbs canadian. Right at 10 lbs US. Hahaha. It's definitely half the weight of the first one I made! Thanks for looking
BTW, I'm scratching off the KG,s it seems that I read that side first!

1/2 the weight and most likely 1/2 the time it took to build the 1st. Looks great.

Ok that is great, I need to check the weight of mine, good work on a great looking wanigan I want to built an other one this winter, I might have access to a laser cuter, so I'm thinking box joint and no epoxy filet, but assemble with epoxy. Anyway, good work!
