Wow, five in a FWC and all survived, way to go.

m-h, For those about to Rock......we salute you.

m-h, Very nice, as a fellow music junkie I'd love to have a set up like that. What are the speaker sizes and how many watts does it put out?

Absolutely right Sunman, no comforts in a Scout.

Ted, Don't we all live vicariously thru each other at one time or another.

The Eagle has departed Saturday afternoon we had the great pleasure of selling our camper to Bill and Jan Johnson who had lost their beloved '03 Eagle along with their house and Bill's classic Unimog in the Lopez Canyon Fire in October 2008. Our ad was on craigslist for 10 hours when Bill...

brett, The 1,000 is the roof framing capacity, I really doubt that the lift panels could take anything close to that.

brett, FWC says 1,000 lbs on the roof, so 1000/(6.5x9)=17 lbs per square foot, at 25 lbs a cubic foot for snow 17/25=.68' allowable or about 8". Now the weight of snow can vary from 20 to 30 lbs a cubic foot so be conservative and shovel often.

Thanks pods, I'm very busy right now and don't have time to do more than suggest an advanced search for threads by DLN. Hope that works for you Darryla.

erod, Nice to hear from you bro, hope all's well.

It will likely have a factory job of some type but I'm sure I won't quite like it so even though I haven't seen it I know it won't be quite right. And so it goes.

Thanks for all the positive responses guys, I really won't have expected less from the WTW family. As of about 10:00 AM it looks like the camper is sold to a great couple with FWC experience. We're just waiting for their deposit to be confirmed and have tentative (or maybe solid) plans to have...

Nice report and pix Sunman, thanks for posting.

It's a sad day in many ways for us, we've decided to sell the Eagle and move on to something like a loaded Class B. I know, what the f**k are you thinking? Well, much like Patrick and Les we decided we want a little more space and comfort for longer and longer road trips. The nature of the trips...

Sorry Ted, Best Wishes.

Oh Yah, lookin' good, very nice work.

Thanks Mr. Dog, you always take good care of us and we appreciate it.

Jay, You'll have to accuse me, works a little slow and I just needed to be sure I still knew how to calc it. I'm with you on redundancy, I always tell my clients they can add more or large lumber any time they like, more safety factor makes me happy every time.

Nice work Jay. Lets see, triple 2x4 DF#2 in compression parallel to the grain is 3.5" x 4.5" x 1000 psi = 15,750 pound capacity, I think it will hold up over time. Though trimmer loading is usually controlled by the material they are resting on so that number could go down to around 10,000...

Nice call Jay, I wouldn't have thought of landscaping materials.

Welcome to the forum, great dinette setup, keep up the good work.

Nice work and write up, larger pictures would sure help if you can repost, and welcome aboard.

Wes, Very nice camper, love the fridge and especially the dinette and new interior layout. I know you'll enjoy it.

Welcome aboard Dave, everyone here is appreciated as long as they post pics. All the best.

david, We had the same issue with the stock pads in the Eagle, we ended up adding a 2" foam pad and that did the trick.
