Food Carrier
My wife has had a board sorta like this she uses for carrying casseroles, crock pots,etc. to family and church dinners. It is nice because you can carry food and it does not move around in the trunk. I took the idea and made something similar.

Re: Food Carrier
Great Idea and design.

Re: Food Carrier
Eric,
The board is 3/4"x11-1/2"x 20". I designed the board to fit a piece of Baltic birch I had leftover from another project. I machined the hand grooves on both sides. I would be glad to post the VCarve file without the logo if you have interest.

Re: Food Carrier
Eric,
Here is the VCarve Program. I did not cut the outside profile on the cnc. I rounded the outside corners with my bandsaw. I cut the handles on the backside also. Total Cycle time is less than 38 minutes. I used 1/2" dowel stock for the pegs. Tools needed 1/4" endmill and 1/2" 90 degree V-bit.

Great idea. Thank you for posting the file. Sometimes our food gets damaged during transportation, because of the way I drive. Just ask Julie.

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Re: Food Carrier
I agree. Great idea. Heck a peg board like that would be great for any trunk or hatchback space where parcels are usually placed. I had t-track and a sliding bar (I made for the same reason) in the rear of my old Vibe but it was far from a perfect solution or quick to implement.
Re: Food Carrier
Great idea, not just for hot food but anything that should not roll around in the boot.
