    Single females in SE Texas?

    Try the (POF) "plenty of fish" website. There is a ton and I mean a ton of women on there. Too many, seriously. Be totally upfront with what you are interested in. You might be surprised how many women respond. Best part is it's a free site.

    Van door exterior locks - useful?

    I&nbsp;installed locks but on the inside. I can lock up and exit from the drivers door. Total cost was about $20.&nbsp;<br><br><a href="/post/My-2003-E150-Conv.-van-5918654" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://vanlivingforum.com/post/My-2003-E150-Conv.-van-5918654</a>

    Safes, lock boxes?

    I use a "gang box" for securing my valuables. I use it manly as a clothing dresser/chest as I built&nbsp;dividers&nbsp;inside it. The lock is&nbsp;recessed&nbsp;so cutting the shank is&nbsp;impossible.&nbsp; I use a 4 digit combination master lock, the reason being&nbsp;standard&nbsp;locks are...

    &nbsp; Boating/fishing&nbsp;forums would be a good place to search for reviews on coolers as many "fishing guides" depend on these.<br><br><br>

    Modify the thermostat on a Waeco compressor fridge?

    I&nbsp;don't&nbsp;know how much electrical experience you have but you could steal a thermostat out of an old(used) freezer and use it. One that you knew went down to your desired temp. Probably&nbsp;save some money that way.&nbsp;Used&nbsp;appliance&nbsp;stores would have them I'm...

    Parking with Full time Job?

    Mattress platform condensation

    Excellent&nbsp;idea on the rope Mr Noodly!&nbsp;Rope&nbsp;does have a certain amount of "springiness" to it. The rope could be spaced apart for&nbsp;maximum&nbsp;air flow. Also if you use natural material such as cotton or hemp, the&nbsp;rope&nbsp;would wick&nbsp;any&nbsp;moisture&nbsp;between...

    Mattress platform condensation

    This is what I did (pic below), &nbsp;lawn chair fabric woven together and nailed down with "romex" nails. I really&nbsp;haven't&nbsp;been in any&nbsp;extreme&nbsp;cold&nbsp;weather&nbsp;save a week in&nbsp;Chicago&nbsp;this last Dec. This is a problem I&nbsp;didn't&nbsp;anticipat&nbsp;when I...

    I&nbsp;apologize&nbsp;for&nbsp;doubting&nbsp;you She. I think you have been looking for a van since I joined this sight. I always said to myself "she's never going to find one".&nbsp;Congratulations&nbsp;for finding one and for proving me wrong!
