    Comfort of a RTT mattress!

    Like you the RTT and even our KK mattress was just too darn hard/firm for us. For our then Overland RTT, our then Maggiolina RTT and now our Kimberley Kamper we had a local mattress manufacturer (small two man shop), Reno Mattress, make us mattresses that were/are worth it to us. No regrets...

    Snow Peak Addiction

    I made up a few adapters to convert the Snowpeak GS1000 stove to propane. $42 + $10 USPS. Essentially a 2' hp hose with 1/4"FNPT on one end and the special threaded fitting on the other. Ideally needs to be used with an adjustable regulator at ~ 75psi. PM me if interested.

    Birth of My Kimberley Karavan

    For whatever reason our's were held up in customs for 2-3 weeks. Whereas we were told typically its just a matter of a few days. We never did learn what the ordeal was all about. It all worked out in the end. But as I imagine you are right now Brad, we were like 2 kids at Christmas only to...

    Birth of My Kimberley Karavan

    Yes that was us...small world getting smaller all the time! Redline and I picked up our KK Sports RV trailers at Long Beach on January 25, 2009 and then drove them home to Reno up over Donner Pass in a snowstorm! Christened them properly :). And Brad was a big help through the process!

    Partner Steel Stove gas connection type

    Contact Partner Steel as they recently made me a 15' hose assembly for not much coin. I couldn't source the stove end fitting. Somebody probably has it...but given PS's quick turn-around, willingness to make any length you want and very reasonable price it just wasn't worth it...

    A few questions for those running Partner 2 burner 18" Stoves...

    I'll let Martyn reply but AFAIK they can source anything PS makes + custom too. My 22" dual burner with windscreen measurements FWIW: 3-9/16" tall (bottom of stove, not including my leveler adjuster feet, to the top of lid when lid is closed and latched down to stove) Lid: 22-7/16" wide x...

    A few questions for those running Partner 2 burner 18" Stoves...

    Drew, I first became aware of Partner Steel products a number of years ago when I bought my AT Horizon from Martyn and Mario. Prior to that I've owned all types of white gas and propane stoves. Long story short: The Horizon went bye and I was back to using my Coleman stoves, et al. But a few...

    Opinion: best roof rack for the LC80, why?

    FG: Sorry I don't have access to my LC right now...a little modding going on right now ;). But I just used some scrap aluminum flat I had laying around for the struts; bent three pieces so suit to connect the fairing to the rack; slotted them for the mounting locations; used threaded nut-serts...

    Opinion: best roof rack for the LC80, why?

    Mine does :victory: 100% pleased with my Frontrunner. Took me forever to decide...and I was anti-roof rack for a long time. But I use the heck out of it for lighter bulkier items that won't fit inside when in explore mode (like firewood, BBQ grill, etc.); no regrets whatsoever. Its a stout...

    Snow Peak Addiction

    I have one of those too. But since the JetBoil came out I don't use it very often anymore. But what a compact and very capable little burner!

    Snow Peak Addiction

    I met with my machinist buddy today. His wife is in the hospital so he's backed up a week or so on these. So hang tight and as soon as he's done I'll let everyone know including pricing. Thanks, Dan

    4 day trip in the plans suggestions please

    The larger the block of ice the longer it will last. When I had an ice cooler for longer trips I'd freeze gallon jugs of water. Or in addition to ice grab a chunk or two of dry ice. Wrap it good in newspaper or similar so it doesn't freeze whatever comes in contact with it...leave a window...

    Sausage!

    In much the same way a little water added to ground beef, pork, etc. when making patties keeps them from becoming too dense after cooking my Mom, Uncles and Grandparents always added a little water to the sausage meat mixture before stuffing. Seems plausible to me. I have to find a deal on...

    Digitizing Film Slides

    Michael, My Dad has a thousand or more stereo color slides from the 50's and 60's. And like you I would like to get them digitized for a number of reasons. However they live in Nebraska and I don't ;). I had them take a sampling of about 20 slides to a photo processing shop in Omaha just to...
