Had to get some pictures made and wanted some of my photography on the wall. So I had these printed on aluminum.
I mounted em like normal but added velcro to the backside. Sticks like crazy to my carpeted walls.
2nd pic is Mesa Arch
3rd is the desert valley near Dugway in fog. ImageImageImageImageImage
Also found a ikea locker for a decent price and mounted under the cabinet.
Fixed the tongue jack that collapsed on my last trip. Decided on a sidewinder. Much easier than a top-wind . I may modify it to put the handle on the backside.

Was able to finally use the shower room while at Bonneville.

While it did the job, there's a few improvements it could use.

1st.) ---- It needs to go up higher. I accidentally bought the 5 gallon.
Hangs down lower. 2 gallons is plenty for me.

2nd.) --- needs a sprayer handle instead of the petcock at the base.

3rd.) --- maybe a different hose, it kinks easily.

I'll be checking out youtu.be for mods.

Well I decided to ditch the gravity shower and ordered this. Has good reviews and spray pattern.

Been thinking about mods. I would like to add another 3/4" red light at the rear side of the trailer for turn signals . Something blinking on the side would help.

On the pump sprayer, I saw a couple years back a few were using them for showers and said they worked great.. :thumbsup:
I like the tarp setup you have on the back between the doors.. looks great..
Stay safe, David

Thanks glad you like it.
It's definitely going to be useful, either showering or cooling off myself or someone else.
Last year was hell on the salt being stuck near the starting line trying to get the streamliner back on the trailer for hours with no shade.
This season my trailer is not leaving my side.

Saw one of these for cheap. I decided to buy one and see if it'll cool the trailer better. Right now we hit another cold spell and its winter again.

Our other cooler seems takes up too much space and feels too wet inside.
I can open the door to combat this but sometimes your trying to keep bug's out. Image

Another lil hack I've done recently is using a bungee cord on the mounts for the awning/shower room.
Preventing the door blowing around.
