Is there any tricks to putting the cover on? I plan to cover mine Sunday for the first time and I am scared. I assume two people with ladders

Thanks

Storage

We are a family of six and full timers. We just bought a Seismic 3712, and needed some extra storage inside. Since the back is usually full of kid stuff, we don't use the couch that is under the upper bunk. I took out the couches and built a 60"x90" shallow tray that screws to the brackets. That gives us a lot of storage for toys and lighter items, and will keep them out of the way. The tray raises up and down with the lift system, and tucks up next to the bed when traveling.

Sat inside looking over my Edward Jones account, decided to pump in pink juice, wash windows, shampoo carpets, wash and take it to storage. Really wanted to hook-up and point it all south but not yet. Back to the office today

There's a uTube on it and you just carry it up and place it in the center and roll it out like a sleeping bag,unfold the right and left side down the TT and your off the ladder

Today,we replaced the spotted rubber trim around the outside doors, storage area,
the trim is 3/4 had to order it, took my wife and i about 2 hrs for the hole thing ,,,
Just for the info , if you put the trim in hot water it gets very soft,and will be much easier for you to install

Restrung two of the window shades with new string. These two were easy they only had one string on each side. The one's with the two strings down the middle are a bugger bear.

Added a vinyl storage pipe for my sewer hose to keep from rusting the bumper. Now I want to put a luggage rack on the back and attach to the frame to carry an ice chest and a fire pit and firewood. Anyone ever added a luggage rack on your travel trailer?

Thank you it should be a good experience for us both I told him that I may do away with the ice box and install a mini fridge and he sat there for a minute looking at it grabbed the tape measure and measured the counter and said why don't you take this entire cabinet/ counter top out build a new one scoot the ice box over and you will still have room for the mini fridge so you can have both, then said I can move the cabinet space to under the couch, he may be slow but some of his ideas I think aren't all that bad
