Thanks for all the help! airforums is so cool! Yeah, I know about the suicide door thing- ours was a classic sprung door case-made the wood jigs to the correct curve, cut the cast frame to relieve spring, new inside and outside skin. Since I am starting new, am thinking of doing away w/ extra long backset on doorknob and deadbolt....and I'm gonna use the Doohickey too!! Also have the sagging axle and a new one is on the way....since there is no rot, and no leaks that I can find (a miracle!) I don't think I'll have much work there. 110 and
12V all seems to work, I am pondering updating the Univolt, and breakers for microwave,AC, etc....
