    The lazy man’s cargo trailer conversion

    Well the chemo has been hard on me especially the fatigue. I go in for my 8th treatment tomorrow, that is sixteen weeks. Should have another scan before the 9th treatment. The scan after the 4th treatment showed some of the tumors shrinking, that's good. Sorry but seems like I don't get good...

    The lazy man’s cargo trailer conversion

    The saying goes; If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans. I turned 65 years old in April and had planned to work two more years.  I was going to start drawing social security at 66.  That is when my age group hits 100% entitlements. At that time you can draw SS with no deductions...

    Is plywood on a van floor necessary?

    If the plywood is in good shape, why bother to remove it?  Of course it is your van so do whatever you want but is the gain worth the effort.  Some wood putty and sanding, then a couple coats for floor paint will give you a very easy to maintain floor.  Instead of carpet you could get several...

    Residency question

    I went through this with my step daughter about three years ago.  She moved back home after living in N.C. for five years.  Ended up adding her to one of my bank accounts and put the water bill in her name.

    Stove top heater accessory thingy

    The Dietz Jupiter 2500 lantern burning kerosene puts out Apprx. 1400 BTU per Hour.  I could not find the BTU per gallon  for the KleanHeat fuel but was thinking if it were more than regular kerosene they would advertise it.  For a comparison the Mr. Heater F215100 MH4B Little Buddy puts...

    Most of the trailer jacks I looked at had a 2" tube with a hole for a clevis pin.  While traveling I always put on a footplate.  This would prevent the tube from digging in if the trailer were to become unhitched on the road. When I can setup on concrete I attach a Wheel w Caster Assembly. ...
