How do you pack your Drifta?
« on: February 10, 2014, 05:47:29 PM »
Hi all,

As the heading says, how do you pack your Drifta?

I received my DPOR today and not sure the best way to pack it.

Any help from here would be greatly appreciated.

 :cheers:

I just chucked stuff in the drawers and found some containers that fit in the cupboards. I'll get some pics when I open her up again.

Cutlery in top drawer.  Cooking utensils and bits and bobs in second drawer.  Plates, bowls and cups in bottom drawer.  Plastic glasses, kettle, teapot, mixing bowls, frypan, tupperware, Aeropress, etc in cupboard.  Stacking saucepans and all sorts of other stuff in open cupboard beside sink.  Keep sink stuff in folding tub under sink whilst travelling.  Food in tuckerbox or in your case, pantry drawers.  Probably forgot a heap of stuff.

Thanks for the replies.
I have found room for everything but still moving things around.
And there is still lots of space to fill up.

Just jam it all in and you will work out what needs to be where as you go along. Great piece of kit though.

Is it just mine or do the legs in the DPO fall out of the clip all the time?

U need new clips D4D. And also look at how much the legs slide from side to side. I had this problem. It stretched the clip and wouldn't hold the legs up. Have replaced and all ok

No probs. yeah def let him know. What I also did to counteract the sliding was put a small self tapper screw on either side of the hinge tube so it won't move anymore.

Looks good mate, you need to get back to work in a hurry. You have even had time to itemise the kitchen boxes  ;D

Looks fantastic mate.
I love the itemised list on each box.
I think I will use that.

That was the missus' handy work to make for an idiot proof pack. Still needs to be updated from the Tambo to Customline pack.
