Yeh, I'd be interested in following your rebuild progress. I wish you luck, my friend... I know that finding water damage and then finding out how deep it goes can be heartbreaking. But I commend your go-getter attitude for tackling the rebuild. My only real advice is to make sure you get the roof sealed up properly to avoid camper roof leaks in the future... Otherwise, I'm sure I don't need to tell you this, but you'll be right back where you started!
I am interested in watching a rebuild thread (if still available) on the 1983 fleetwood pace arrow
Here you can see the 2 pieces on the left with the uprights holding the 2 x 3's. This is just a temporary solution as I work on things in the middle of the "living room".
Well, here is what I did. Using some 2 x 3 x 8 lumber, I created some extra shelf space next to the roof. Fortunately, I still have a few inches of headroom and can walk around under this.,
Using the existing shelving, running a 2 x 3 across the width, and then a brace under the horizontal 2 x 3's to hold them up, along with a few Kreg screws, and now I have some extra space for some lightweight items to get them off the floor and out of my way until I use them.
Now, I think I've got it. Whatcha' gonna' do, whathca' gonna' do, what are you going to do, when you are running out of space to work and have wood on the floor in the way? Kind of like this...
Black walnut that has been ripped to a thin, roughly 1/8" thick.
Well, due to technical difficulties, I can't post any pics tonight. I'll try to get things corrected for tomorrow night. Have a great day!
Good evening everyone. Nope, not dead. Sorry for being M.I.A. for a while. It's good to be back. Hope your year is starting off well. I won't bore you with a bunch of B.S. stories. (Baby Sitting). Ah, I'll tell ya, grandkids are great. You can love 'em and send 'em home! Lol.
Anyhow, couple of pics coming up.
I'm still here, after bumbling around a good while. Not fond of the new format; not near as clean as the previous version. But I will soldier on... Still looking forward to your remodel efforts, fulltimin.
Hey, fulltimin - good to see you here!
All 8400-something replies to your topic are here. And apparently I have found your thread (without even searching), and the latest reply is at the top of the list - there is a user setting for that, and I no longer need to navigate to the very last page.
I have been using the site on a smallish smartphone screen, and it is now mobile friendly. I have to admit that I haven't seen the new layout on a big screen yet, though.
Hang in there, it may grow on you. And I need to see the progress of your project 😉
Yep we're all still here. True it is different than before and I was a bit apprehensive yesterday. But after being on the new format for a day now I'm finding it easier and easier.Fulltimin I look forward to seeing updates on your project in the future.
