I was looking to build one of those patrol box/mess kits and decided id be better off just adding dividers and a piano hinge to my old rubbermaid action packer. Its a little messy but I can find what I need easy enough, had my gas stove/grill combo, cookware, etc and can use it for an extra table or chair. I can keep it in the bed of my truck all year and slide it around as needed. For me, that seemed to be the best and most durable solution.....just not as cool as a custom box with a woodburned design in it though.
