Very impressed. It's obvious you've spent a lot of time doing these mods. My guess is, your retired.

Nice job on the mods,
I would like more info on the water filter set.
Do you remove filter through the screw cap access holes?
And just use fittings to work around with the water inlet?
what abotu black tank wash/clean out inlet?
cable tv hookup?
we have removed 2 chairs from the rocking chair side of the table and it opened up around 2 foot of space in that side of the slide out.

Hi Randy,
Water filter is mounted with same bracket that you see on the outside of box with SS nuts and bolts,(back to back) From water inlet I used 90 degree elbow going down, Nelson quick disc; short piece of non toxic hose, another 90 facing down going into filter. Then going out, 90, presure reducer, and quick disc. Filter is removed just by sliding holder up, out of bracket. I must remove filter when I use black tank flush. (this is the only part that sucks) No issue with cable hookup. I will try to get to trailer to take another picyure from different angle. Filter is a shur flo with bypass. Mounting bracket from camping world.

What's the wallpaper border mod?

What's the rear bumper cover mod? Just decorative?

What's the basement wall mod?

I keep overlooking the fact that I should add a shelf in my bathroom vanity. I'll have to re-examine it with wire shelving in mind.

Your trailer is also *really* shiny! I need to quit my teaching job so I have more time to tinker with the trailer. Summer vacation isn't coming fast enough.

It is a Thule table, I got it from Camping world. They also made one with a sink in the middle. Good luck, apparently they are discontinued. If you find one let me know and I can hook you up for the wall brackets.

Thanks for the great ideas!

I would like to know more details about the toilet sprayer mod. Where did you find the sprayer and holder?

Hi Anna, the toilet sprayer mod is a Thetford water saver kit. It comes with holder, flange gasket and parts to tee into line if there is no place to tap into behind toilet I picked mine up at Bontragers RV surplus.

What is the purpose for this? I am assuming it is for cleaning.
