Re: question about repair for rotten bunk door
that is what I planned to do, but I'm having trouble with the structural aspect. There is no metal support for the bed anyplace but around the edge, so the bonded styro and plywood forms the structure that holds it together. so, now I have a missing 1 foot x 7 foot section at the bottom and need to repair it in such a way that it has structural integrity382Views0likes0CommentsRe: question about repair for rotten bunk door
oh golly, the whole door. I'm not sure i'm up for the task. I'm tempted to remove the aluminum frame and take it to a welder to have them make it structural. here's where I got the d seal http://www.ebay.com/itm/360912297707?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 I'm thinking about going back to a pop up, this thing has leaked on and off for years despite new seals.382Views0likes0Commentsquestion about repair for rotten bunk door
I have a hybrid that leaked over the winter and the lower 12" of the bunk door got wet and swelled up. I cut this section out, it is made of thin wood with styrofoam sandwiched between to form a sheet of 1.5 inches. It just kind of floats on the flimsy fiberglass outer shell as far as I can tell. Can I just glue a 12" x 7' thin wood to the fiberglass, follow with 1 inch foam insulation board then another layer of wood? My only concern is nothing seems to be preventing it from tearing through the fiberglass if someone stood directly on the patched area. I also ordered the new d seals today...2.7KViews0likes10Comments
