    Methuselah Remodel

    Oye.. another change in plans. I was approved for a loan to buy REX, the VERY cozy Conquest 1989 MH.  Then I learned I would not be able to use my daughter's place, which was the original plan.  She wanted me to have someone in case I needed help, and not be away from everyone in the house...

    Shelf or just a cargo net?

    [Matty Van HalenI need to utilize this empty space outlined in red in the pic below.  thought about a shelf of some sorts but now im thinking a wide but shallow cargo net would work fine.] Hi Matty, It's all according whether you want your stuff visible (in q net) or perhaps placed in baskets...

    Finally got my van

    :@ Sadly, or madly, I don't always have access to the genius, and the other 3 are only partial geniuses. :rolleyes:  Anyway, regardless of what MH I eventually purchase, I would want him to replace the cabinets, unless they're fantastic.  The ones in REX could, perhaps be changed in...

    Noodly, I plan on ONE layer of glass or acrylic, added to existing windows, with the most separation possible under the circumstances.

    floor and window ideas...

    Hi High, Are those the heat-shrink plastic ones?  I'm not sure how clear those are, but at least there would be light. :idea:

    floor and window ideas...

    Hey beast,  My idea also.  I covered the 'insulating windows with glass' a bit on my Methuselah thread.  The windows on the unit I'm now looking to buy, are larger and more numerous than those on the van I first looked at.  However, I do not like the idea of being cooped up with ugly insulation...

    Cheap Heating Options?

     I agree Safari.  Even if it's not one's only source of heat, it is one that can be fed most anything, when the world goes crazy, as I think it will.  Having experience heating a large house with a Walton's style kitchen stove, makes me like having the same in a smaller dwelling.  I've seen rigs...

    Methuselah Remodel

    Whelp, winter is upon us here in NY.  Hail today a bit larger than pea size.  Supposed to get a couple inches of snow overnight.  Not a good time of year to be buying a MH. :(   It was in the 30s when I left for surgery followup this morning.  Still, we should get some decent weather for MH...
