    Clean/neat Exterior Cable Management

    Does anyone have any ideas for an attractive short exterior run of cable? I am mounting solar panels to the top of my pop up trailer roof (Mission Overland Summit) and I need to route the wires to the forward tongue box, where the solar charge controller and battery are. I don't believe routing...

    How to build your own Carbon Fiber Camper making your own Composite/Foam panels.

    Keep in mind that those tubes of thickened epoxy require a caulking gun that has more pumping leverage than the common hardware store caulking gun (18:1 vs 12:1). It’s thick stuff and the mixing tip provides a lot of resistance!

    How to build your own Carbon Fiber Camper making your own Composite/Foam panels.

    Yeah… once you start mixing in pigments, the handy tube loses a bit of its convenience. I’ve used white pigment before in traditional non-thickened epoxy, a little goes a long way, but I noticed that the epoxy was a bit thinner and liked to flow/drip a little more. Did you find that to be the...

    How to build your own Carbon Fiber Camper making your own Composite/Foam panels.

    If you happen to be around marine shops or just need this stuff in a convenient caulk tube form, look into West Systems’ Six10 or Total Boat’s Thixo. They are not black though…

    Off road lights

    I think if you call Baja Designs and/or KC that knowledgeable people answer the phone and can answer your questions. I’m pretty sure I’ve called both in the past.

    How to build your own Carbon Fiber Camper making your own Composite/Foam panels.

    Makes sense. With the melamine sheets, top and bottom, and the basic/flatness of the part, it’s easy to get even pressure during the cure. I’m looking forward to having to time to watch your vid. “A video’s worth a thousand pictures.” 😁

    How to build your own Carbon Fiber Camper making your own Composite/Foam panels.

    Looks great! I hope you can do a little destructive testing of your scraps, I’d love to see where the layup fails. Why not bag it?

    Lipo charging setup for the bed of my truck

    My Tacoma (w/ tow package) puts out less than 5A to my trailer through the 7 pin connector. When I added a 30A DCDC charger and house battery to the truck bed, I ran 2AWG wires from the starting battery.

    The Dometic CFX3 Mega Thread

    This thread brings out everyone who has had problems. I’ve have a CFX3 35 for years with zero issues (it’s also for sale). The weight/size, efficiency, and noise were big factors when choosing the Dometic over other options. I also have a Truma 69L that seems heavier and noisier (for its size)...

    Create Georeference PDF files for Avenza's PDF Maps app

    I use Avenza. In the US, all of the USGS and National Forest maps are available there for free, in addition to many other free resources. I have paid for some Baja maps that have definitely been worth the money. I know how to use Avenza well enough, so between that and the amount of free maps...

    Vinyl flooring and Chinese diesel heaters

    I can’t help with the floors, but we had a diesel tank that was filled inside and never had issues with smell. Get a very high quality tank (not the ones that come with the Chinese units), stay away from jerry cans, only fill your tank at the pump, and be very diligent to not drip anywhere. If...
