Black & White
Let’s have a look inside shall we. This isn’t my first interior design rodeo.. Yes it needs a bit of work. We want to keep the black and white theme but tone it down a bit.. In other words less back. We’ll start with a video tour.
See what I mean.. Some things are not ever to be done and some things should be left as they were. And there are things that need a change. Like the stereo situation.. The fancy little blue tooth thingy.. Nope not my thing. This is my thing…
I had all these things in my garage, the Kenwood stereo, voltage readout and an old aluminum sign which has donated many pieces to different projects. Oh look the batteries are in need of a charge. A week later the battery is not showing signs of charging… Hmm. Not that we will be camping on the batteries …but that means the inverter charge isn’t doing it’s job. Have to check on that.
September 9th:
Road Trip ! I took my truck to my friend Dave’s to steal parts from his old Award trailer. Came back with lot’s of goodies. Some we need like the two twin mattresses, Hot water tank, Roof AC unit, stove, microwave, cabinet doors and drawers. Plus other bits and pieces.
I’ll use that small corner cabinet in the new living room I plan to make… Later.
Exact same stove and microwave… Ours are still good.. Only need the steel cover off the stove
I’ve got plans to use some of this stuff. Can we say ” night stand with two drawers” OAK !
I’m going to clean this AC up and test it.. If it works I’ll swap it with mine … but not the cover, that’s toast. And not before I Re-test the AC in the trailer. Same thing goes for the hot water tank… I’ll make one good one out of two..if I have too.
Here’s the AC from Dave’s trailer.. After the wasp nests, leaves and other crap has been cleaned out. The control panel on top for the test. It’s alive ! works as it should blows 58 F on high.. That feels cold enough. Then I tested the one in the trailer.. It too seems to work.. same temperature. Both on a 15 amp circuit. These are not big AC’s only 1100 BTU’s But if you try to run them on a long 14 gauge extension cord I don’t think that works well. So I have a spare AC.. And about the hot water tank.. Dave’s Award trailer had the exact same by-pass set up for the hot water tank. But his worked !
I cut the two ends off to make a straight through by – pass with no valves. Now I can install this and things will be back the way they are suppose to be.
And of coarse along with those goodies came two twin mattresses that were in a 30 ft Award trailer. They need toppers but these are hard to find and are a perfect fit. Next Spring you will see a big transformation inside the Award. But in the mean time I can work on the cabinet doors and drawer fronts.. Let’s start a new page for that shall we !
