Baby Steps
Best way to describe the recent headway on the trailer is “Slow and Painful”.
Since Daylight Saving Time came early this year, I had hoped for some major breakthroughs - hasn't happened.
Last night I go hung up on an installation of a battery switch on the tongue - perhaps tonight things will go smoother.
Pics below are of the new Water Heater installed and plumbed. The installation was not bad, and the water inlet and outlet flanged right up.
The gas line had to be rerouted through the side instead of "down", but a new hole in the floor was easily drilled to accommodate the reroute.
I ordered a couple of "RV" type 110 volt switch/receptacle boxes from Colaw RV Salvage today, and they had a GFI/Switch/Plug receptacle out of a salvage unit as well. Also ordered a 30-watt Fluorescent fixture at the same time. Colaw's is one of the places I trust to do salvage business over the phone.
I plan to mount the electrical plug and switch for the electric side of the dual heat source Water Heater inside the upper tambour cabinet in the bath. Hopefully that position will remind me to be sure that the WH is full before I flip the element to the "on" position.
It was a beautiful spring day here in Houston yesterday, with temps approaching 80. I put the twin foam mattresses out for "airing", even though there are no real odor issues with them.
Hope to have a more productive weekend.
