"My Firefly"

My little trillium 1300 is a lovely warm yellow, and I'm a sci-fi geek, so I call it My Firefy. I picture the light being given off at night in the dark wilderness, and think "this is my Serenity!"...

Small work surface next to stove

Hello all!
I have a 1979 Trillium which has had a lot of work done, and it's nearly ready to go! Unfortunately the vent above the stove, and the tables still need a little work. I actually live out...

It occurs to me - one good way to tell if your egg is 'retaining water' might be to take it somewhere to get weighed. The original stickers inside my Trillium list the GVW as 1500lbs - when I went...

There's a ten-penny nail through a hole drilled in the outer frame of the fridge, that seems to keep that secure - and I've been looking for ways to manage the space behind the doors too!

This is a little off topic - but I've got a Trillium 1300, and it seems whenever I travel - the screws vibrate themselves out on some of the hinges. As a result, I have some of the older positive...

Oh thank you!! It is at Best Friends, and I did not know they had a few spaces, so I'll definitely call them and ask first. The second choice I had near town was Hitch-n-Post, so I think I have my A,...

On my 'maiden voyage' (aside from pulling the trillium home!) to Utah, I ran into 40mph sustained winds, with gusts up to 80mph. I'm from the Pacific NW, and was in the middle of the high desert, so...
