    I finally got around to watching this video and some of the comments were so disappointing. I hope you know that the camper is turning out beautifully and it's awesome that you're showing the journey! You're doing what a lot of us dream about and that's so impressive! I'm super pumped to see the end result 😍😍

    if the handles and knobs were brass you could boil then in vingear for 3-4 minutes and then lightly scrub with 0000 steal wool. I've done it to my thrift dressers and they look amazing.

    That's so nice that your mother's helping you! My mom wouldn't step into a camper especially if it smelled like the 70's. Allergies and she only went camping 1 time and she said it would be her last time doing so and that was in 1970's . But it looks like fun, great job!

    When I was with this one guy, he had a big lifted up truck, the tires were almost as big as me (I’m 5’2). I drove it at least 5x and I barely could see over the steering wheel. One time on a back road that no one drives on, I sat on my leg just so I could see. He would joke with me all the time about possibly getting me a booster seat just so I could drive it 😂

    Helpful hint/tip.... Boiling the hardware for around 30 min with white vinegar in the water removes ALL grease and gunk build up. This leads to a lot less elbow grease needed. It works fabulously!

    Did you check out Elysia English's channel? Yesterday they took off the cover of their bathroom on the roof and they found moss growing there! Also one of her subscribers told her to boil the knobs in water on the stove. They came out lovely, but she painted them anyway.
    I feel like both you and her are working on the same things.
