Anyone interested in 83 Pace Arrow Tear down and Rebuild?

Wow, what a week. Did I mention I don't like stress any more? Lol.

Swamped with computers last week, PLUS.....

As you know, if you have followed this for a while, wife and I had our 50th anniversary in March this year.

We've been kicking around for a while about going out to the state of Washington to visit my brother in law.

He's only about 1/2 as crazy as I am.

Anyhow, trying to tie up all the loose ends with computers, as well as trying to get ready for the upcoming trip - starting this week, by the way - created a little more stress than I like.

However, it looks like we'll be on time to leave, and I have just a couple of things to finish up computer wise, so it's starting to look better.

I do have some interesting info coming up, some of which, I hope to post during the trip, that ties in to exactly what I want to do with the motor home, when the time comes.

Not making any promises, so we'll see how this unfolds during the next 3 weeks.

It would seem time would be better spent working on the MH instead of taking the bristles out of junk brushes, but your project, your time I guess. :S

Was cleaning up. Spent 2 minutes pulling bristles and taking a couple of pics.

Not a big time waster.

Too many computers to work on this week, as well as trying to get ready for an upcoming (hopefully) trip out west to my brother in law for his birthday.

If I post about the trip, is that going to get deleted?

I certainly hope so. I don't need notifications that you have posted about something completely off-topic. Nothing to stop you from posting elsewhere in an appropriate topic if you think it's RV related somehow.

Got it.

The Pennsa - wane - ya - Dutch... Lol.

Actually, I really don't care if they get used or not.

I had thrown them away, and the trash bag they were in broke.

As a result, I was transferring the trash into another bag, and when I pulled one of these out, I wondered what was used to hold the bristles in.

So, I pulled them out of one brush - took 5 seconds...

I laid the brushes aside, finished transferring trash and went on my way.

Later I pulled 2 more sets of bristles out, took 2 pics and then posted.

In case you are wondering, I don't clean these, because using lacquer thinner, or acetone, or something like that will cost me more than buying the brushes on sale at Harbor Freight.

This was just a quick - let's throw it out there and see what happens, rather than, seriously looking to do something with them.

Isure don't want you to start 10 more pages of testing posts but aren't you concerned how 80-100 MPH winds (combined driving + wind speed) might effect that?

The operative word is “driving”. Do you really think this will be actually driven? Hard to imagine.
