My whole Air Force career, we lived my the idea of three Fs. Form, Fit, Function. Your work, everything I've seen over the last few years, use the idea to a tee. Great vid, as always.
If I was doing that I would have put small finger holes on the shelf to be able to lift it up, maybe something to 'lock' it in place. I would not have built a big handle in the middle. It takes up space & limits what the top half can be used for. I def would not have put bungee cords on it. I agree with her about everyone making their own to suit their needs. This is how she wanted hers. Cool.
Cool ideas. One tip, put a strip of leather between the two sides of the axe sheath on the edge where the sharpened edge off the axe is. That way the axe won't slip between the two pieces and cut the thread, it will hit the strip of leather instead.
laura reminds me of that one kid in art class who always comes up with something totally out of the box or something different. like whenever theres a new assignment, shes already thinking ahead. always an inspiration!
I am constantly amazed at your endless talent. You are young to be called a master crafts person but your talent seems endless. Looking forward to next video. Have a great camper trip.
I loved your solution for mounting the ax and shovel. You always incorporate a diversity of methods and media in your builds - there's something for everyone! Hervorragende arbeit, Laura!
That's because there have been floods on one side of Koln and an explosion on the other side. There's no telling what's next, but when it happens she'll be ready and have lots of people lining up to be her new best friends.
Have you seen the flooding in Germany lately? The rules dictate that - even if you're going for a day hike, pack enough to survive for 3 days. Going on a camping weekend? Pack enough to survive for 2 weeks.
@@paulgrieger8182 I am German. And I also tend to pack twice the amount of stuff than I need. But I have more lightweight stuff and not as robust than Laura‘s cases.
Hey Laura. cool build! i love all of your innovative ides! we all stray to get better so i just want to come with an Pro tips from an former leather worker: When you do your stitching (in Sweden we call it shomakersseme(Skomakarsömm) you should cross the needles in the hole to make sure you dont hit the stitch from before. You can also use a edge iron to make a shallow channel for the stitching to sit in to make it look more neat. When you do markings in leather you should wet the leather before to make it more permanent. Keep up the good work! regards from a Swedish DIY believer
@@denvernow7294 Around 180 USD new. Model is Zarges Eurobox 73 l. You can find equivalent ones from military surplus items at least in Germany, model is then Zarges A10.
Oh I love me some good storage box videos! My favorite is the one where the two old TV-carpenters dissect their awesome "anarchists toolbox". Great stuff
That metal tag in the fourth tip😤 Dang Laura you're so good at these logos, typography, fonts, and branding!!! The Makers ❤️ equality for the axe is great as well!
Great video, and fantastic storage ideas. But OMG, those boxes are so expensive, I almost cried a little when you started drilling holes in it. But they’re meant to be used, and you’re making good use out of yours. Have a fantastic trip, and bring back lots of memories.
Great tips Laura! If I may add to your tips; I bet a lot of people don't know that closed-head pop-rivets are a thing. They can help a lot when you need a waterproof fastener.
In the UK our food delivery companies use stacking plastic trays. Because they're so modular and shallow it's easier to put gear in those and keep camp tidy. I have one heavy duty plastic box (which also stacks!) Which is relatively critter proof (the squirrels can be a menace with breaded products). My axe and saw are always both stored inside a box to keep it safe from kids and stop it getting wet.
I would love to see Laura playing around with new products out there like vegan leather or something. I saw some made out of cactus and another one with mangos. Seems interesting.
Oh my goodness your camping in Sweden. Oh that would be my summer dream. My grandmother came from Northern Sweden. I would love to came by her village. I didn't know is was possible for foreigners to camp in Sweden.
Op ďeze manier inpakken duurt erg lang. Ook al heb je zoveel gereedschap. Met plastic dozen gaat het ook iets lastiger. Toch ziet het er goed uit. Het is leuk om je zo bezig te zien
Love your work!! Love your vision!! I figure a nice silky saw nestled between that gorgeous axe and shovel would expand your outdoor capabilities as well!! Gonna steal this!! Thank you!!
Sehr schöne Tipps für die Camperbox. Bei mir habe ich noch ein Sitzpolster auf die Kiste gebaut. Dann kann man die auch gleich noch als Sitzgelegenheit nutzen. :)
Good evening Laura, you certainly have hit a home 🏠 run 🏃♀️ with this week’s video and some very interesting ideas for me to think about, anyway you have a great time on your camping trip and I will look forward to seeing your next video and until then TaRa for a bit.
Lots of cool ideas, as usual. And plenty of thinking outside the box (and on top of the box, and inside the box). I did appreciate how the roll of duct (gaff?) tape gets secured with the tools. 😀 Thanks for sharing!
@@m.maclellan7147 you could use the back of a knife, or a butter knife. But to get a neat line you need something to run along the edge of the leather perhaps tape a small block of wood to the knife so that the blade always stays the same distance from the edge of the leather.
Nice ideas! Be aware, that you might loose hight when you put stuff inside the lid or put in a shelf. Suddenly stuff may no longer fit. At least not in the orientation you planned. Been there! Done that!.... Happy Holidays!

It really is.
Bungee Cords are really a good idea. Thanks!!!
I customized an IKEA RASSLA hanging storage, it’s flexible.

You just brought "thinking outside the box" a little bit further. Unexpected, like always. ¡¡PURA VIDA!!

Laura‘s friends: „Hey, let’s go an a week long camping trip“. Laura: Packs gear to survive a major catastrophe.
Hahaha so true

I picked up leatherwork last year and am so happy to see you Laura working with this material! Have a good trip!
Oooh that workshop is heaven!!
That axe leather holster looks freaking amazing, the bit when you added the makers love equality stamp was so satisfying
I always love Laura's videos. She has a great energy to her. Her creativity is inspiring.
Awesome, always thinking outside the box!
Ha! I saw what you did there
Looks like I have some modifications to my chuck box coming in the near future. Thanks, Laura, you rock!
Unnormal wie gut du das Video gemacht hast und mit wie viel Hingabe diese Box gefertigt wurde!
Ich werde das auch mal so umsetzen
What to say… Laura is a pure genius! 👍 She can works with any material you find.

Awesome work! I've got an older zarges box that I've been keeping in the back of my jeep and now I've got all sorts of ideas
Nice!
I went to the Zarges link, but I cant find prices. How much is the one Laura has in US $?

Interesting use of the Ballistol spray.
It's cool watching videos of people and their solutions/creations. Can be 10 videos and 10 different ways to get the project done

Lucky, I want to go camping, that sounds so good and so relaxing 😀.
You have such an amazing talent and awesome ideas!
Hi Laura,
Is there nothing your can’t make? You are very inspirational ❤️
Mal wieder tolle Ideen. Vielen Dank für´s teilen. Und viel Spaß und Erholung in Deinem Urlaub!
What's a camping trip for Laura without her pink tape! Classic! Love it!
Well done Laura, looks good. I particularly like the 'make it your own' section.
Really enjoyed your craftsmanship really looks better than retail stuff
I've watched most of your videos, and what I really love is your economical use of materials.
Nice work, and nice shop decoartion! We took such a Box and put a "sailboat style" deck on it.
Thanks for the inspiration! The bungee cord divider was such an innovative Idea!
So tolle Tipps, ich bau aufjedenfall die Ebene mit dem Griff nach. Danke für die Inspiration. Liebe Grüße nach Kölle
Love the leather work and the brass rivets. Well done Laura!
Youre a visionary. What I wouldn't give to spend a week in your shop with you, my goodness.
In the UK our food delivery companies use stacking plastic trays. Because they're so modular and shallow it's easier to put gear in those and keep camp tidy. I have one heavy duty plastic box (which also stacks!) Which is relatively critter proof (the squirrels can be a menace with breaded products). My axe and saw are always both stored inside a box to keep it safe from kids and stop it getting wet.
Very creative, as usual. Have fun on the trip. Thanks for the video.
Sending you love back! Thanks for all thé smiles
My favourite idea was using outside ... axe was very clever ... good job ... have fun camping !
Great as always! I gotta get into using rivets, they look so clean
Yes, so clean, so fast
Absolutely love your organizational skills. Beautiful work
I LOVE all your storage! 😍
Good choice for your vacation. ;) Hope you have a great time. Thanks for the video.
I would love to see Laura playing around with new products out there like vegan leather or something. I saw some made out of cactus and another one with mangos. Seems interesting.
Would love to give it a try!
ABSOLUTE GENIUS!!!! Hope you have a great time on your trip and stay safe!!
Good job Laura well done
Have great time and come back with more fantastic ideas. 😎
Oh my goodness your camping in Sweden. Oh that would be my summer dream. My grandmother came from Northern Sweden. I would love to came by her village. I didn't know is was possible for foreigners to camp in Sweden.
so much skill and creativity in one vid - love it
Thanks for the great video! Have fun in Sweden, both the Husqvarna and IKEA museums are worth a visit when you're in the neighbourhood.
Great ideas, thanks!
Re-watching the video riggt after the Chat because I only got half of it. Thanks to everyone who enriches the Chat weekly. You are awesome ♥️
Thanks for hanging out with us in the chat

If I Only had 50% of your skills and ingenuity, I would be set for life
Nice job, LK. Classic design using elements of metal-, wood-, and leather-working.
Zarges should sell LAURA KAMPF case modification kits!😀

Well then. Welcome to Sweden. Hope you will have a nice stay in my home country.
I do love to see any leatherworking in vids! 😊 (And for Steve's axe too!)
But that shelf idea was brilliant! Nice touch!
sweet. another fine project
what an awesome work! For sure I'm going to make one for my camping trips .
Thank you Laura
Brilliant as always!
Welcome to Sweden, I hope you like it!
Ich mag deine Reaktion wenn du ein Projekt abgeschlossen hast und einfach nur am grinsen bist 😁

Awesome!!!

Thanks for being a badass and inspiring us to create.
Enjoy your vacation. 💚💚👽
Next time you’re sewing leather, run a creaser down the stitching line before you sew. It gives your stitches more protection from abrasion.
Do you need a specific tool to do this, or could you perhaps use the back of a knife to do it ?!
@@m.maclellan7147 you could use the back of a knife, or a butter knife. But to get a neat line you need something to run along the edge of the leather perhaps tape a small block of wood to the knife so that the blade always stays the same distance from the edge of the leather.
I look forward to see you make a row boat to a blue water cruiser.... :)
These Zarges boxes look super cool! Hope to see more projects with these.

Great ideas! Also very useful to see how it’s done!
