    Securing "Floating" Bed Platform

    Vickie, try throwing some of that rubber drawer-liner stuff between the plywood and the drawers.&nbsp; It won't help in a crash [but not much will!] but it will keep things from sliding around in normal driving.<br>

    attaching stuff to interior

    Sportsmobile uses wall-mount tracks like these<br>http://www.curtain-tracks.com/applications/vehicle-curtain-tracks/recmar-3296-8-aluminum-curtain-track-8-ft.html<br>and then there are all kinds of 'hooks' for...

    Need Help Charging My Batteries

    Putz, I've seen my MacBook Pro 4g/500g at 42w, but that was with 3 VMware instances running, each doing an OS build on different flavors of BSD...really loading it down.<br>

    Need Help Charging My Batteries

    Ditch the 400w desktop and go for a high-ish end notebook.&nbsp; Your battery will thank you.&nbsp; --ron, who's down to 4 notebooks now... <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"><br>

    vandweller guys

    For the most part, Mouldy, "vandwelling" is more a state of mind than a choice of vehicle. I know vandwellers living in everything from 40' motorhomes and converted refrigerator truck [great insulation there <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"> ] all the way...

    Yes, in Texas it is very easy.&nbsp; I reregistered a 93 Chevy/Bluebird school bus as a 93 Chev C60 MH [motorhome] by taking out all but 2 of the bench seats, bolting a wooden table to the wall [eating accomodations], throwing a sleeping bag over an old futon pad [sleeping]. Dorm fridge with a...

    registering as an RV?

    The legal answer to that varies by state, and there are almost as many answers as there are states.&nbsp; Here in Texas, any size motorhome gets auto plates as do window vans, where a cargo van gets truck plates.&nbsp; Insurance is cheaper for motorhomes here too.&nbsp; My van is registered as a...

    Boondocking at work

    Yes, I have done that in the past too.&nbsp; I'm a computer programmer, most of my work can be handled remotely, but sometimes I need to "be there".&nbsp; It's usually just for a few days...one time it was 6 weeks.&nbsp; Nobody has told me I couldn't, many even said "park over here where you can...

    Hi, I'm Ron, and I'm a VanDweller...

    I've been a nomad all my life...dad was in the Army when I was growing up, so roots never took hold. At last count I'd traveled to 43 countries, lived in 5, as well as 8 towns in 4 states in the US. I've had my van since 2002. It now has 112k miles on it and has been in 47 of the lower 48 states...
