Howdy I wanted to thank you for sharing your images....some of the most enjoyable I have ever seen...most make me feel like I am there with you. David Graves

Howdy One first question to resolve is where you want to sleep....in our Hawk shell we chose to sleep one up and one down. Down sleeper is cross ways at the front of the shell. This leaves the front half of the upper bunk available to stow totes at night . You are very lucky to be starting...

Perhaps this will be the last year for the Absurdity in the Desert. Lets all hope that the BLM and others will finally have will enough to shut the nonsense consumption of the desert David Graves

Howdy The Toyota T100 never was and never will be a 3/4 ton pickup. I have owned one since 1997. David Graves

Hi Chet I enjoyed the read ...thanks very much. It seems you bring along the best outdoor gadget known....your brain ! Well done. David Graves

Thanks Paul I have never made it to the Rice....but should ! More than the crystals I am looking for my memory of where we visited out there in E WA. David

Looking for a little local knowledge in Wallowa area of WA. Many years ago we visited a mans property that was open to the public...seems he was a retired professor interested in native plants and also crystals....there was a large meadow of plants with paths along with some sort of gift shop...

Hi Buckland So, can you show me how to use my TV remote ? David Graves

Howdy This is an interesting thread as we all need more useful space with our campers. I wonder about those who are not supporting the center of the floor with some sort of strut length wise....have you had any sag or flexxing of the camper floor down the middle which carries all your...

Howdy Chet OF COURSE it is thin !....thats' what makes the camper so light and yet strong. This has been mentioned many, many times but every new generation of owners want to have it both ways and mount all sorts of adventure goodies on the sidewalls or above their campers in order to have the...

Howdy I did not mean that low but on the rear edge of the top...which is reinforced by a second layer of aluminum...as per Craigs post above...and of course careful use of 3m to bed in the awning rail is always a good thing...seals the screws etc.

Hello Blue Sky I am impressed that you developed your own design for a rear awning. We also have a stock FWC rear awning for our Grandby....when it useful, its really useful. Two things I see in your design that might warrant further consideration: -The support bars ride on the jack...

Hi Jack Would you mind a PM about your trip planning for BC ? I think we have "spoken" before....we live out in Tillamook. David Graves

Foot pumps ROCK ! ( and roll) while freeing your hands to hold on. We have used a one burner Sea Swing stove in our camper for years....ask your brother. But Buckland ? Do you have Rhythm ? DG

Hello and welcome to the forum. The process of jacking your camper to load DOES involve dynamic loads as you are jacking each corner separately. Remember the Flex Frame engineering of the camper body.....which helps the framework survive the jolting compression and stretching along a less than...

Hi Craig And many thanks for the Keystoneography . I killed my computer screen and it took a while to get a replacement working. Have my eye on an early Keystone locally but unsure when I will get to see it in person. Best Regards David

Howdy All I have often wondered about the FWC Keystone models. How long were they produced and how useful for current use on the typical 8 foot bed truck of today ? Any notion of the weight ? When did they stop making them? Many thanks David Graves

Where are you located ?

Howdy Most of the older campers did not have the corner angle brackets for modern jacks. Does yours ? You might post an image of your camper to get the creative WTW juices flowing. Or maybe you already have it unloaded. David Graves

The upper mid west and great lakes region have lots of history and natural history. DG
