I come up there occasionally to see a business client and I believe there is one on Hwy. 5/Canton Hwy. if you exit to the right going north on I75...I believe it is in a shopping center on the right but I could be mistaken...anyway, search Google it shows up on
Walmart too, Home Depot or Lowe's may have it too. You could also try West Marine I believe they have a store up that way. When I get done with my Boler we should try to plan an outing, I have been wanting to start a spring or summer rally somewhere here in Georgia...I think I should create a post on this...

[Martins HeirCon]

You're right, there are a few left. I was just making a funny, my two local favorites are gone.

We'd be interested in another rally, lots of fun!

So stoked about the table!




Kind of a weird combination- potty at the dining table.

Still a lot of fine tuning to do, but that's ok.

very nice job there on the table...what is supporting it in the second picture?

[Martins HeirCon]

In the second picture it's just hanging from the wall hardware. I still have some cipherin' to do about that leg. It's too long to fold up when the table is down ( by about 3").

Glenn, if you used a 3" spacer to mount the leg hinge, and shorten the leg accordingly, it should fold up ok.........I think.

Thanks, Dave. That's what I was thinking, maybe even incorporate a silverware drawer in a 3" skirt and mount the leg to the bottom of that.

A friend on Instagram who owns a 1300 with an original front dinette tells me that their table uses different hardware.

Turns out that the discrepancy was 5" once I accounted for the angle at the front of the footwell. I couldn't skirt the whole table that deep, no knee room! What I decided on is a 5x8x14 utensil drawer down the center.



Can't say that this won't change again, just have to try it out. Also mocked up a small shelf to cap off the wall reinforcement thingy.

Very nice Glen, I like the way it turned out

[Borrego Dave]

Nice looking mod Glenn with the utensil drawer. If'ens it was me, I would 45 the bottom edges cuz my knees aren't what they used to be .

[Martins HeirCon]

Thanks, and you're right about the edges. All will be sanded to mimic the radius on the fiberglass corners in the rest of the rig.
It's all kind of a test-fit for now. We're headed for the Green Eggs and Ham rally tomorrow just like you see it. We haven't even chosen a fabric for the cushions!

Finally got the laminate I ordered for the tables.



The cushions are all at the upholstery shop, should be done in a week or so.

Glenn,

I you are still having difficulty getting the frig to cool on LP, you may want to re-check the placement of the vents. For the Dometic 2193 and others that size, the distance from the bottom of the lower vent, to the top of the upper vent has to be a minimum of 31 inches. If not, the heat rising from the heater tube will get trapped at the top of the opening and not get vented outside. The heat build-up seriously reduces the efficiency of the cooling unit.

Jim

[Martins HeirCon]

Thanks, Jim. The problem was an obstructed orifice. I could see light through it, but not a crisp round hole. I had already soaked it and tried to clean it, but didn't have anything with me on vacation that was small enough to poke through it. When I had it out back in January, I used a single strand of a copper speaker wire to clear it. Been fine ever since.
