Anyone interested in 83 Pace Arrow Tear down and Rebuild?

[fulltimin]

Started to look into some water damage in the kitchen of our 83 Pace Arrow. The more I looked, the more I found. I have some pics of the damage so far. Anyone interested in following a rebuild thread?

[fulltimin]

Here's almost what they will look like when assembled.

Yes, I know the tops are not quite level. I had the bottoms too far apart when I took the pic.

[fulltimin]

I took the sawhorses and cut the tops on an angle with my portable saw.

A close up of the brush. You can see, it's still nice and dried, just like the day I put it in there.

[fulltimin]

If you really want to know if your waterproof glue, really is waterproof, just stick a dried brush in some water.







Let it sit for an extended time in the water and see what happens. This one was in water for about 2 months.

FINALLY!

I managed to get to the motor home yesterday for a little while. That's the first for about a month.

Don't expect too much! Lol.

I assembled the second half of the second saw horse, so both halves are glued together now. Wahoo...

Next will be to connect them together, to make them usable.

Not at all. That should have proven to be a very valuable experience with an increase in knowledge. It is in such times that I benefit; although I suffer. I now know how my fellowman feels while enduring the same experience in life and makes me more compassionate toward him.

SUFFERING IS A GREAT TEACHER.

Suffering will teach one things that would probably not be learned any other way. Not always fun while going through them.

If you had COVID-19 your stamina might not be what it used to be, be careful in trying to accomplish to many things all at once and do take it slow, this virus affects in different ways.

LouLawrence, it is part of the saga. Plus, we need to take into account that fulltimin is still in recovery mode. Be patient. We will get there (S)

That's pretty much about it....

All part of the process. Back to YakShaving, in order to finish other work.

I though maybe I could turn it into a donkey, with me as the back end.
