    Gina is so like me 😂. Paint on the outside, minimal importance. :) And when you do paint, basic blend in color. Nothing fancy.
    Honestly, looks good. Love the color.

    What a wonderful friend you are! The community and our world needs people like you. I struggle all the time in getting things done and try to learn new skills. Watching you and your friends tackle these issues gives me confidence to fix issues in my own rig. I don’t own a bus but maybe one of these years. But knowing that this stuff can be handled is great. Thanks for your videos. They are very encouraging to see that people do bond and can get stuff done! Dale seems to be in a bad mood in this video but it may have been just the parts that he was in.

    For that type of Rustoleum, a 4:3 paint:acetone ratio is what's recommended. Also a catalyst hardener is also recommended. Also with the temps being what they are in your area, some "japan dry" might not be a bad idea as well.

    those bolt holes are easier to weld when you hold a piece of copper as a backer behind the hole
    provided you can reach the back side
    if you dont have a copper bar you can use a 3/4 or 1 inch pipe cap from lowes/ home depot. just use the flat side

    A couple years newer than mine, with a lovely access door that I am jealous of.
    Trying to build up the courage on mine (I don't like heights either, especially in terms of trying to use tools. Something that didn't used to bother me... 40 years ago... 😕).
    Doing it solo is a bit longer than it should be, too.
