Re: Plumbing Re-Do
I second that advise. Using pictures and help from this site I was able to redo all my plumbing without any hassle or outside help. If you need any help with ideas, or just a place to share your work, let us know. The plumbing (pex itself) was the most enjoyable part of the work I did last year. I u...

Re: I toured a gutted out Airstream today ... comparison to Avion
It is the Home Depot wrap. Nothing special really, but I upgraded to the pink board recently as a supplement on the wheel wells and that helped some. That bubble wrap is hard to pin down so I used some Pella window tape to secure it.

Re: I toured a gutted out Airstream today ... comparison to Avion
One thing of note, which was actually confirmed in a recent tour of the Airstream factory, is that many Airstream floors used to be plywood on frame with fiberglass batten insulation, but now in the more modern ones it is bubble wrap? Unless you all know differently is the Avion laminate with foam b...

Re: Ideas for header over main door?
Thanks for the pics ... those are helpful. Might have some time at home if they close my schools to do some projects like this.

Re: Ideas for header over main door?
Very good suggestions. Thank you. Do you have a picture by chance of what the original design looks like?

Ideas for header over main door?
What solutions have you all done or suggest for creating a finished look for the missing piece that goes over the main door in the interior? I have a nice shade in place with some Tyvek and insulation just to keep the cold out for now. All my trim and cabinets are all painted white.

Re: Belly pans
What is a fair price on that you think? I need to replace all that under mine I think sometime for sure.

I toured a gutted out Airstream today ... comparison to Avion
Funny thing today ... I have a neighbor down the road that has been flipping Airstreams and the occasional Avion for the last couple of years. He does the typical flip: polish the exterior, gut the interior, new floors, and some appliances. However, he leaves all the cabinets and finish work for the...

Re: Alignment 1989 34XB info needed
You need to catch a break on this project I know. With 2 years and all the $ - you deserve to have this a hassle free and perfect. Your work has been top notch! Do you happen to get a print out / spec sheet from the alignment machine / setup? The only main measurements in play on a torsion axle I th...

Thoughts on colors for belt-line stripe on 90 30P
Getting ready for a short trip with the Avion to a nice KOA in Charleston in a couple of days. I got everything hooked up and ready to go this afternoon. If you followed my posts from last summer, you may have noticed that I have started to work on the exterior with a new (wider) lower belt line tri...
