    What kind of plugs should I use for rear bench bolt holes?

    These holes are structural mounting points, already threaded for, your immediate use, or future use. I'd protect them by threading a bolt down into them. I'd do so with or without a D-ring for tie down.

    Some things I  learned @ a seminar last week

    Bias is, literally, the destruction of Science.... There are many many many (millions) of Scientists, Engineers, and Physicists who they prefer to NOT count as Scientists. They disavow them because they don't like what is being said. (that is called bias, among other things) We can...

    Tips and tricks for vandwelling.

    Yup - You got that right!  I'm really on a fence what to do about it.   I should prolly have listed ground clearance as one of my issues with this rig as well.   Oh, and just like with a large number of people: My rig is too large on the outside & too small on the inside.

    RV's are just that Recreation Vehicles

    what bike? (motorbike)

    Just in case you're interested, a close-up of the bicycle rack.   this is my second CUSTOM motorcycle / bicycle rack.  My first worked for both road & mtn bikes.  But this one is for long distance touring / high mileage, thus it is custom for a particular mtn bike (and particular MC as well)...

    what bike? (motorbike)

    Yeah, but it really isn't a good motorcycle for RV'ing Van'ing. I'm gunna sell it. To big a hassle to take with. While the KTM, with a dirt-bike frame, is simplier to mount & bring, and much funner to ride as well.

    Tips and tricks for vandwelling.

    I'm far from being an expert, as I live out of my little RV only 2 to 3 months at a time. But an evaluation of what I miss having & what I don't use (but it built in) maybe worthwhile: Only one thing missing; and several unnecessary extras I do not use: + I really miss not having a desk with...

    Sleeping/keeping warm without heat

    I refer a hoodie as well. Mine is so comfortable i wear it next to my skin. It is large enough to pull down over my face, thus my shoulders, neck, head, ears & face are well covered. But the beanie pulls down totally covering my eyes & ears, better. My own little Isolation Chamber.

    Directional Wifi Antenna

    Sounds great!   Just what I am looking for!!  It appears that that unit is meant to mount right on the router.  Not used as a receiver antenna.  Or am I missing something?   Are you mounting it onto a booster you have?   Perhaps that is why they sell them in pairs?  One on the router, and one...

    Sleeping/keeping warm without heat

    Thanks guys, for the encouragement. But, just to keep this thread on topic, I found it harder to stay warm in the two hammocks I tried, than sleeping on a pad. (hennessy & a blackbird)
