    Four Wheel Camper - Roof Repair in SoCal?

    Honestly that looks like something you could fix on your own if you are handy. You can likely pull out the side of the bed sufficiently to straighten that piece (or a combination or pulling and pushing at the same time)? The roof can probably be stretched back into shape with some careful...

    What gas struts ?

    There are a number of companies out there that will work with you to develop and or build the right package for you for your needs. I am in Canada and used a company called LS Technologies (LS Technologies) and they were very helpful. We worked out the correct length and lift support rating. Of...

    Watches - ExPo Style

    I had one of those for a couple of years... I actually regret selling it. It was a very good watch that I got for a steal new. I also sold my Seiko Kinetic Auto Relay at around the same time... lovely piece of engineering, but it was too small for my wrist, and looked a little dainty for my...

    Gas Lift Assist Rams for Pop Up Camper.

    I had a few pics, but no fabric yet. I ran into an issue with the lift tubes I made, I neglected to take into account the amount of bracket drop inside...aka I messed up and need to remake them. No fabric yet, but all of the folks I have spoken to recommend Sunbrella marine fabric. Waterproof...

    How hard could it be? My home built pop-up camper project

    Heh... yes. This. Well for me anyways. Just stay focused and do it in stages and you will get there. Set goals and make them achievable. I stopped working on mine pretty much pre-summer when I realized my goal of getting to an Overland event I wanted to get to was not going to happen. Well...

    Pop-Up Camper - Custom Build (scratch built) Oasis-Si

    Good question. I am still working on the details for that. I think I have a pretty good plan in place, but I need to work out the final plan with the person doing the install. I have a few people who are interested in doing it and they all work in the marine industry doing boat toppers and...

    How hard could it be? My home built pop-up camper project

    Cool. The woodwork was done by a friend of mine... and yeah the frame is pretty similar, so it must be a good design right? I can't wait to actually start using mine...lots to still do. Nice work.
