    Even regular paper towels that come off the 4egular size... I often reuse each paper towel. I've just washed my hands with soap and water, dry them and leave the towel on counter or table. It dries very quick so next time I wash my hands ,I use the same towel ,again, maybe even a third time. Or after using it once or twice,I might need it to dry up some lil mess. I reuse towels often

    I have used an old fashioned hat pin to keep the paper towel roll from unraveling. Just jab it into the end of the paper towels. They don't go anywhere.

      If your phone already has a magnet, just glue or Velcro a metal plate on the wall to stick it to. If you use a magnet on the wall with the wrong polarity, it will repel the phone and nobody wants that. :)

    This is the first video I have seen that addresses the issue of needing to get into the garage space while it is raining. Now that you mention this that should be a consideration when designing the garage/electrical system so the batteries, charge controller and stuff stored back there aren’t getting wet every time the rear doors are opened when it’s raining.

    • @TimAndShannonLTD

  • @mommag3600
    @mommag3600 Год назад +21

    For the paper towel problem, I use Viva brand. It appears to cost a little more but it’s a higher quality paper and packed tight. With it being packed as tight as it is, it doesn’t unroll and it seems to last forever. It also gives you select-a-size and I find that with the good quality weave I often only need the half piece anyway.
    Thanks for the video.

    • @TimAndShannonLTD
      @TimAndShannonLTD  Год назад +3

      @TimAndShannonLTD  9 месяцев назад +1

      Yes it does! And we just had an experience 3 days ago where it was it was evening, but still quite light out - we were in a parking lot with no signs whatsoever about parking or no parking, but a security guard was repeatedly making his rounds, and we saw him drive around us several times (we were looking out our tinted windows which he couldn't see in). He was very close, checking out our van. But every time, he kept driving and we never got the knock; we stayed all night and got good sleep.

      @@TimAndShannonLTD I just brought home a fridge/freezer just like that, not even unboxed yet. I love your door open clip, but if the fridge was further away from the wall, wouldn't the door lean against the wall and not fall shut?
      For paper towels and toilet paper, I squeeze them flat, then flat the other way, then make them round again. It unrolls slowly, not puddle on the floor. To keep the wind off, I probably would have put a little plexiglass or other small wall to keep the door breeze away. :)

    Wen I was in school our bus driver used a hair clip (the kind to make pin curls) on her paper towel roll; she clipped the loose sheet to the roll and it worked! It kept the paper towels from unrolling down into her face while she was driving
    I think they call them Bobby clips

      Oh yes - also called a Bobby Pin. That's a good idea too!

    I like your ideas 💡 I think though your van looks like a vacant car ready to be broken into. I think it would be better for thieves to know there is someone inside so they’ll not bother trying to get in. Most thieves are opportunistic and are smart enough to know you might have a pow pow inside with you.

    I just get viva paper towels, they’re cheap, durable and don’t unravel 🎉

    Great tips, I was hoping to use the drawer tip, but there is an oven on one side of our drawers and camper exterior wall on the other side, right now I am using bungee cords. I squat my toilet tissue paper into an elongated hole, the same thing for my paper towels and that keeps them from rolling when we go over bumps. I’m m just getting ready to watch your video again in case I missed something.

    Hi y'all just found your channel while looking for ideas to put up my bug screen. Thank you both for excellent video coverage to give me encouragement 👍 May I ask what is in place of your rearview mirror? Thx, Iris and Little One 👋🐾

      On the top center inside of the windshield is the rain sensor housing (I think) for the automatic rain-sensing windshield wipers. Just a piece of stock equipment that came with the van.
