Many months ago, a read a discussion on an RV forum about using a digital media player to play/watch digital movies on a typical television. I was very interested as I had started building a digital movie library in hopes of soon living on a sailboat. A big stack of DVD’s is NOT what I… [Read More]
DIY Tote Bags
I’m a pretty slow dude. The plastic bags that you get when shopping have annoyed me for years but I never did anything about it (except complain). I just keep hauling all those plastic sacks back to the Walmart plastic recycle box (which I always feared was just dumped into the trash bin). Possibly worth noting,… [Read More]
Sailrite Ultrafeed Sewing Machine
Some of you may have noticed – I enjoying sewing projects. I’ve never sewn any clothes though – mostly all “working items” such as my RV window sun shades, bicycle bags, and tote bags.

Motorhome Weight
Several people have asked about the weight of my coach. I finally got around to weighing it this past weekend.

Hopefully this little idea will help someone!! The headlight assemblies on my motorhome (JBAM) were not in the best of condition…. [Read More]

Basement Decluter
I’ve been living in my home on wheels for about a year now. My basement is stuffed full of “stuff”. You know… those things that you think you can’t live without but rarely, if ever, actually use or even look at?? Ya, stuff. So, after a year of most of it sitting down there unused,… [Read More]
