Skirting fifth wheel
As I settle into my first winter as a full timer and learning as I go, I'm planning to skirt my 5er as I've deduced the major cause of chilly drafts is coming from the floors of my slides (around the couches in the front living room, around the bed in the bedroom and under the table in the kitchen).
Obviously, I'd like to avoid the thousands of dollars involved with professional custom fitting. I happened across EZ Snap skirting kits, but I'm not too keen on screwing studs into the body of my home and it would appear I'd still be spending $1500-2000 to wrap fully around my 40-ft rig AND 5 slides. I'd like to skirt it with a fabric material as opposed to insulated boards for storage reasons. I'm just not sure where I'd store boards should I need to.
I'm toying with the idea of custom fitting a skirt on my own using adhesive snaps. Has anyone had any success in outfitting your rig with a homemade skirt? Suggestions on skirting material?
