First Mods to the 26BH

Well. it has been too cold to camp yet here in Iowa, so I've spent my time working on mods. Pictures are below. So far here is what I've done:

- Extended counter space mod

- Screen Door Dead Bolt (the plastic screen door lock didn't look like it could hold back my 2 year old so I installed a dead bolt toward the bottom of the door)

Great MODS!

A number of years ago I put MaxxAir covers over my three vents (also great hail storm protection), but had to remove the screen on the MaxxAir that was over the bathroom because of the high speed exhaust fan created to much back-pressure.

I can see where that might cause a stink for some people in certain situations

First Mods to the 26BH

I have not seen the "stone" looking backsplash behind the stove on a 26bh...looks pretty good!

Yes, the backsplash on the 2013's are nice.. Really makes it feel more like a real kitchen. The DW loved it!
