outside towel rack

Hello all, we have recently purchased a new 5th wheel. We went from a Toyhauler to a 5th wheel. The issue my wife mentioned was that we don't really have a place to hang wet towels and bathing suits. So I made this for her. It is from 3/4 pvc, that is what I had in the shop. I have a sign over the popout switches reminding us to take it down before retracting the popouts.

    Thank you,

    Yes, all 4 corners have suction cups. That way I can remove it when we close the popouts.

    Very, very nice. Do ya throw some extra wax on those spots to reduce wear?

    Nice idea. I don't like the location though - accident waiting to happen. Good thing is, with the suction cups you can stick it anywhere. I have a small washer / dryer so a larger drying rack (likely ladder mounted) is in my future. That will serve the same purpose so no need to make a nifty towel rack like yours.

    I like the idea! But we don't have a slide out - going to try to figure out something with this in mind - thanks!
