UPS to the rescue

Boy howdy, did we get some stuff done yesterday. Nothing major, just little piddle jobs. Like I says before, things I been put'n off for the last 5 years.

Son Ronny jump right in with both feets an' removed all the doors and drawers from the lower kitchen cabinets. Strip them down of all hinges and pulls. Then he takes my random orbital sander and sand all the old grease, dirt an' grime, and underlay'n varnish slap off'n them things. Wore two high dollar .69 cents foam brushes plumb down to the handle slap'n polyurethane on them. Walla, brand spank'n new drawers and doors. One more project completed.

Another project I been put'n off for far too long is replacing the under sink shelf. From day one, that shelf had been a nightmare and eye sore.....sags in the middle....stuff falls all over the place. Well, that project is almost done too. Reinstall will be done when the slide out repair has been completed. Since we were working under the sink, the plumbing has been modified to Billy Bob specifications......make more room to store stuff.

Project #3 for the day was to remove that ugly carpet from the entrance steps and install flooring. Boy howdy, old Billy Bob done wored his self plumb out measur'n and cut'n. But it fit....yee ha. Will complete sometime today....or tomorrow. 

The aluminum angle (1/4" 2"x3"x4 feets) arrived yesterday evening. Son Robert is already this morning setting up the drill press for drilling and countersinking bolt and screw holes. Did you know......cutting of aluminum is done with regular wood working tools??? Just thought you would like to know.

Ok....time to pick up and arrange tools for another day. Stay tuned.

How do ya give a simple explanation to a simple question? RV Dan asked yesterday how do ya remove a slide out. This photo is about the best I can do. That piece of flooring is an example of what trim was removed from the inside if the slide before it would fit through the hole in the wall. It acts as a stop against the inside coach wall so's ya don't go out too far. It is screwed on to the aluminum square tubing you see in the pic. Hope this helps Dan.
