    for the future you should use a hole punch at the end of the tears to keep them from continuing. I know this is an old video but if this comment helps someone watching it now then it was worth it. great job on the color matching!

    There is a Company out of Wisconsin that has brand new canvas made for your original camper. Better then the original canvas ever was because they "tint" the plastic windows. They usually run under a $1000

We decided to buy all new canvas , a rooftop ac and a bunch of other little upgrades. We take it up to mount Charleston all the time now and I just love the heck out of our pop up ! I hope you guys enjoy it ! Go up to fletcher view they have full electric hookup , bathrooms , fire pits and it’s only 33 dollars a night !

    I hope this works well for your family! I wouldn't want to sell this as a flip. The top of the sink is going to peel quickly, that table is supposed to fold down to make another bed with the cushions from the back of the benches, and the crumbs you'll get in between those boards 😳 I'd be interested to know if that canvas repair lasted... As a new Englander we get all kinds of weather in the same dang day. That wouldn't last long up here unfortunately.

    • @youngfreeandrv6940
      @youngfreeandrv6940  3 года назад +5

      The large patch for the canvas tear was used with a speedy stitcher, it’s basically a handheld manual sewing “machine”. It’s on Amazon and there is a kit that comes with canvas fabric as well! Highly recommend because it was very useful/easy BUT we could not have done it alone. It was 100% necessary for us to do this together and as I mentioned in the video it took FOREVER so patience will be a virtue🤣🙏

    • @youngfreeandrv6940
      @youngfreeandrv6940  2 года назад

      So this was absolutely a two person job! One of us was inside the camper and the other was outside…. Whoever was inside had to pull the string out of the speedy stitcher and start the next stitch. Person on the outside operated the tiny speedy stitcher! Best way I can explain it. It also took a LONG time! We spaced it out over a few days because it was so tedious and time consuming. BUT it did a wonderful job!

I see the video is a year old and thinking about putting flooring in like you did. I hear it can separate some because of temperature change. Is your floor doing good still. One thing I will tell you that I saw that looks really good is ceiling tin squares that you peel and stick. I saw someone do that to there pop up and it looked really good.

      I agree!! We intended on including that but we didn’t keep track as well as we should have, so any information we give wouldn’t have been accurate.
