Meal prep, doing dishes or bartending are a dream on a canoe trip when you can stand up straight. The Mason Camp Table is a perfect size and the perfect weight. (~2.75lb / 1.25kg) It’s simple and quick to set up, and all you need is a tree.
Paul Mason and Bill Ostrom designed the first “Mason Kitchen” 15 years ago. They have collaborated again to improve the design and dramatically reduce the weight.
It comes with a storage bag that attaches to the end of the table. Great as a garbage catcher (line with a bag). Check out the optional mesh pockets to keep your kitchen organized. They hang from D-Rings. Check out the photos on the Mesh Pocket product pages.
This table has many uses! E.g., Car camping and winter camping. For you digital nomads, find a shady tree and treat yourself to a stand-up desk.
Pre-Order now for delivery starting mid-May 2023. Orders will be shipped in the order in which they are received. Please note that Bill makes these in Thunder Bay, ON, Canada.
