My favorite Velcro product is OneWrap. Hooks on one side, fuzzy of the other side. I can't keep track of how many uses I've found for it.

Stove top is a two burner SMEV. In the first interior I had two 12VDC top loading compressor fridge/freezer (depends on how you set the temp, either one or the other, but not both), and they were very low amperage units, about 0.8 amps per hour after initial cool down, Second interior is a...

To me, with my Ford Ranger and ATC Bobcat Shell that I built the interior, low weight is essential. I only carry water in the 2.5 gallon plastic containers, I usually have 2 of them, no water tank for me. Easy to recycle the plastic containers and buy more water when needed. Also field...

You'll do OK. We've seen you travel before. Some smaller towns still have food stores, although the prices may be slightly inflated. Sometimes you can find a local source for plant perishables (like a Farmer's Market or fruit stand). The main option I use is to make a food shopping list...

Ditto on Dells... If you get an account with Dell (sign up on line, I think), they will send you (email & snailmail) Specials every now and then. I purchased my $500 Dell laptop when they let me know it was on sale for $250. You'll probably need something more powerful than a $500 laptop for...

Keep going!

Nice find! I like it.

Remove the thread part and take it to a hardware store, find the nuts section and try a few different nuts on the thread part until you find the right one. Then you'll know the thread size (diameter & picth, maybe 1/4" x 20) so you can order the correct one with a longer thread part. On your way...

Here's a discussion on use of the rear seat storage options for a small-ish Ford Ranger with some deviations to what some guys have done in their larger trucks. I think there are some other threads, mostly about larger trucks, as well.

When I'm camping with the wife, she likes campgrounds. State campgrounds, County campgrounds, National Forest campgrounds, BLM campgrounds, ocassionally a City campground, even some privately operated campgrounds (usually operated by native americans, we NEVER stay at a KOA or the like)...

How about 2 smaller "X's"? One "X" for the front half of the camper and one "X" for the back half of the camper. Would that size of plywood "pieces" fit under your camper and not be near the 5th wheel mount? If not 2 "X's" then maybe 3 "X's", centered down the center of the floor? And, in all...

Strongback chair thread.

Just a little clarity...You are NOT going to connect the compressor to the camper battery as you stated in the first message?

Additionally, the amount of amps that the air compressor draws should be taken into account. Most of these are very high draw ampeage units and may draw down your camper battery faster than you can believe. When I use my 15 amp Vair air compressor, I always have the truck engine running for the...

I'm a juror in a 3 week civil trial... wait for it... now in it's 7th week. Probably enough said, however... Got a call from the superior court clerk two hours ago that the attorneys and judge are trying to figure out the jury instructions which were supposed to take 1/2 day today (this AM) and...

Oh Noooooo! Black Rock Helicopters at Burning Man. Sadly laughing at this one. And, for a real laugh, check out the video at the very bottom of the web page... Helicopter takes out Portaloo toilets. Is that TP in the air?

Ditto! From another Bobcat owner.

Safety razor, we don't need no stinking safety razor. My Dad taught me to use a folding straight edge razor, a ceramic cup of soap with a brush and a strop to sharpen the straight edge. Alas, my hands are no longer stable enough to use that device without a trip to the E-Room, so, now I'm just...

Well, I'm glad you're only "surprised". Even if I had lived in the old west of 1880's, I think I'd still prefer to use the therapeutic papers than that thing.

I have no idea... glad to know I'm not that old! I do know that I don't think I'm going to sit on it.

OK, your mission is to go to your local Tractor Supply Company (tell your wife you're on a "mission") and get those numbers. Spend as much time there as you think is needed. This message will self destruct in 5... 4... 3... 2...

I recently had one of my door keys break off of my key ring because the "bow" part of the key was made of plastic. I have a spare key hidden somewhere on the truck, however, it just broke in my pocket, so I still had it with me. When I got home, I emailed Bauer Products about if they had...

Paved roads, just more needless government spending. And, that's all I'm going to say about that.

A guess of 600 - 900 pounds is about what I would expect. 4 eyes at 600 pounds each would provide 2,400 lbs provided all the turnbuckles are snugged up and not loose thus ineffective. My Bobcat shell wieghed 550 pounds before I built the interior. With the current interior I have about 875...

I have no idea the name of the manufacturer. I should have taken a photo of the package when I had it, that's usually what I do with unique products, however, I slipped up on this one, sorry. I'd email or call discountramps.com (the web link I provided above) and ask them to look on the package...
