Thanks

Here's a question that I posed to a fellow owner of an FG with a pass through. "I see you have a pass through between cab and camper, do you use it and could you live without it? What are the good and bad about it? " Here is the answer he sent back: "Yes, we use the pass...

I have heard that from several people, and I was one of those that said it was absolutely needed, and thought that its crazy not to have a pass through, would be interesting to hear what some travellers think about it. The only time I can think where it would be good to have would be in a...

Pod8, I see what you are doing there, my understanding of bulb seals are that they are for compression, not as a slide seal, they aren't designed to drag along on a surface, they are made to sit and have a surface lay ontop and compress to seal. If you can get the surface perfectly flat, smooth...

I have heard many times people saying that a pass through was mandatory, me included, I had all along planned to have a pass through, but just never got to it and now I am not sure that I ever will. In my westy the cab was a main part of the living space, so that is a plus, but for this rig I...

A bulb seal would work well, but bulb seals dont bend around object well, so if possible use one bulb seal at the top of the inside wall, only thing with a bulb seal is while the roof goes up bugs can get in until the bulb makes contact, With only the brush on mine noise transfer was never...

For a built in fridge alot of people are going to Nova Kool, I know a few people who have sailboats and they have replacedthier old fridges with Nova Kools, there are several sizes and configurations available, even side by side fridge freezer units, they are good value and don't hear many bad...

Not sure what you are asking there?? If it relates to the seals, I dont have an in place picture, and they are mounted only on the top right ontop of the brushes and they barely make contact with the top sides, one of the principles of the atmosphere seal is hot air rises and cold air sinks, so...

Pod8, I got those seals from Fuller brush. 9C2500 strip holder and 8B9201 grey nylon brush, The brush is a good atmosphere seal but doesn't stop sound, so having a combo brush and rubber seal is what I have done ( removed for interior work ) I have a strip of foam rubber about 1/4" thick...

:hehe: you got me there!! Kinda lame interior build next to yours and the work Paul is doing! Oh well!

Converted my garage over from 'metal shop' to 'wood shop' and got going on the cabinets, 1/2" Birch ply for the kitchen area and 3/4" for the fridge unit. Put the kitchen units in for a test fit, I am squeezing the calorifier up next to the roof actuator and I'm trying to to keep these two...

Just thought I would chime in here on the adhesive topic, the way I see it tape needs to have a very even flat surface, if there are dips and valleys the tape wont make contact, so prep of the surface is important. With an adhesive like Sika 252, there will not be a need to prep the surface as...

Looks great!! To me the interior makes me think yacht's, fancy boats......I would name this vehicle...... LAND YACHT

Heater unit was purchased on ebay, and the other heater is a wave 3 cat. Do you plan to power your water heater with battery and inverter? How many panels will you use on the solar water heater? Do they work well? Its a good concept, just depends on how many panel are needed, that starts to...

Marine hot water heater?? What kind of heater is that? I would think something termed "marine" implies "more expensive" , my D5 was around $1100, came with everything needed for hook up including an extra fuel pump. What is the heater name that you are using, just curious, only problem I see...

Hi Hani, thanks, Yup, good eye, its an isotemp calorifier, I have an espar D5 for it, the system is mostly planned out and will be the usual set up with the espar heating coolant fluid that will then pass through the calorifier then through two fans heaters and be able to pre heat the engine or...

Finally finished all the doors and installed the hatch holder up thingy. This is the last one. Next up, put together the slide out kitchen, thanks to expo member 'Sarconcepts' for whipping up a great design, used it exactly how he drew it up, thanks! works great! In...

Door is 5'2" could be more but then you lose somewhere else, I mocked up the flat deck prior to getting it built and mocked up the door with steps to see the dimensions to use. This was optimal for us. The walls are staggered or stepped with aluminum dowels, screws and Sika, then Sika the...

Brian, thanks for the compliments and ideas, as far as the busyness of it, I was and still am trying to keep it unassuming and boring to not attract too much attention, but it seems like that ship has sailed already, I am considering painting the aluminum to maybe tone it down a bit, so that is...

Paul, that is really looking good, texture and colours are matching great and I can see it coming together, beautiful!
