Orion, We must be 'brothers from another mother', 'cause that is my philosophy exactly. I love to 'bring things back'. Some of my favorite tools are old ones, like my 1954 Shopsmith that my father in law gave me.
I've been thinking about that floor flange 'cause the 4 fold out legs are a little wobbly.
I tried to remove that 'decorative' tape stripe that goes around the coach about 1/2 way up. I thought for sure I could cajole it off nicely and then put something much cooler or do without. The glue stuck to the wall and the plastic pulled off, and as you know, getting those kinds of glue off is a royal PITA. So instead I'm going over it. I'll let you know tomorrow if it works.
