You know the old sign from the repair shop?
Labor Rate:
$10 per hour.
$15 per hour if you watch.
$20 if you offer advice.
$40 if you worked on it first and only brought it here after you messed it up.

Too bad you can't back charge labor on the go-fer now rigging that was done. But as you say, once you have it done right it will be an accomplishment to be proud of and enjoy.

It was simplistic or rustic, your choice.
A fresh water tank was under the curbside rear bench, with filler below the window. A line ran along the floor under the ensolite at the rear then under the rear streetside dinette bench to the kitchen cabinet. A short city water line ran from the streetside to the tap. The grey water either ran through an open hose through the floor by the streetside wheel well or later models to a capped connection behind the lower kitchen cabinet.

Greetings all,
How about the water line to and from the water heater?
Please tell me they were not copper tubing run under the trailer.
I believe my best bet for replacement of all water lines will be braided flexible stainless steel. Any thoughts?

The closeup picture is the vent fan over the shower. The top has completely cracked and fallen of. Anyone seen one like this?
