Hey guys. I really like your corner shelves. What size and type of screw did you use to attach the strip of wood to hold it? Thanks, Podgirl

Looking at this old post from you.

Can you give me details regarding the mattress?

Thanks

 We did like the mattress in her 179, so we went to Costco and bought a 3 inch memory foam mattress queen size. It really is a great modification. I think it cost about $115, but well worth it. Hope this helps good travels.

Do you have a drawing that you fabricated the tire mount to?

Which tool box is that - I found several on Lowe's website, different sizes, etc.

Really like the mods. Definitely going to do both.

Did you set the new memory foam on top off the original mattress?

Hello, I'm curious about your solar mount. Is the mount bracket welded to the rails?  Since you've had it for a while, how is it holding up in the wind?

Thanks
