Found the noise stoppers. Ordered them, a Equal-I zer 600 lbs, and clips with thumb springs. Oh, and the pry bar to get the equalizer bar up on brackets. Thanks guys.
Now will look up the screens. hope they are easier than door screen.
Happy Traveling,

Bug screens are really easy.  I see an equalizer in my future as well.  I dont want the hassle, but if it eliminates the "pucker factor"  it will be $ well spent.  Since you have a short bed, i bet it will make a world of difference for you.  And, going 60mph is creeping anymore, especially on interstates with all the trucks.

Yes, I agree, Also allow me to keep my pants on ! LOL I've got to get the trailer from the Home Owner Lot and start taking measurements for the drawer add on. My Colman stove top has a hinged glass top that is level with the counter top. What did you use as a cover? Looks like a large cutting board.

the cover is a cutting board from Sams club.  They come in a 2 pack, so i cut one to make the "legs" to fit over the burners.  I thought about doing the recessed cooktop mod, they look nice.  for now this is working good. I finally put my pod in storage for a while so i can take a break from finding things to mod.Wink

Im going crazy trying to figure out what has happened in this picture. I would really like to get the blueprints and willing to pay for them. Today the Charleston Camping World fixed my bathroom door jamb. Door stay closed. I primed the lower bunk so I can use a Arro Bed. ( told you about 3 Back operations) I don't want any livers popping my mattress. Now, how did they get the roll up doors? I can make them, but need to know what backing to use. Wish I could get hold of Marwayne and ask them. Tex, can you help me out? I am going to get rid of 1/2 table and have a fold down counter top, and then have pull out drawers like yours.
Thanks

SC, you can use any kind of strong cloth and use spray on contact cement don't use wood glue, it gets to brittle.
If you want something done right, do it yourself.

Hey Tex,
I haven't gotten any posts in last 3 months. Last one was about rollup cabinet over a bunkbed. Do you know of any reasons why I'm locked out or not getting anything from R Pod owners? I logged in with no problems and am on the Pod membership list. But like I said, you were last to send me pictures and told me to use cloth and glue on the roll ups.
Thanks for any help
Tom
