Thanks, UP.
Yeah, I'm just a cheap SOB so I count-the-beans no matter what I'm doing. That, and I'm now so old I get sticker shock when I buy a box of screws. :D On this project, though, I quit bean-counting and just get what I need. I do have a lot of the essentials in storage. I haven't had the courage to tally everything, that will come at the end. After the interior is done, I still have everything exterior to deal with--brakes, bearings, hitch wiring, etc.. At one time, I was thinking about doing two or more of these at the same time, creating a fleet to head North. I'm glad I didn't overload myself with that plan. It would be interesting to know what the total time for manufacture is in today's modern RV plants. I'm guessing it may be a little shorter.;)
