What have you done to your GFC this week

Thank you for that, and I completely understand. My business is literally inspecting and consulting water infiltration to the exterior of buildings and managing the repairs necessary to get it to stop. I wrongly built some elaborate plan of addressing the infiltration as new framing elements or something.

Resume regularly scheduled GFC weekly updates, all! :metal:t3:

Will the findings of what caused so many owners to have water intrusion issues be shared? Will the fix and how it addresses the issue of water intrusion be shared? Will the changes to the current campers being built be shared? From an esthetic stand point, those holes and roof tape are crazy, so being able to understand would be helpful.

Hey @larock - We’ve talked about this at length in the Water Intrusion thread, so feel free to give that a read. The topic was closed after several weeks of dominating the forum, and the commentary was becoming very redundant. It was valuable for some time, but we wanted to re-focus to the topics that make this place so rad.

If anyone wants to create another echo chamber, be my guest…

Or just call us and hear this stuff from the horses mouth rather than beat the dead one. If anyone has pause for concern regarding the updates, our team will gladly discuss this at the appointment or over the phone.

I was just asking a few questions, none of which were clearly addressed in the thread you linked.

Again, from an esthetics stand point those larger holes and roof tape look bad, so wanted to better understand the “fix”.

Fingers crossed my camper continues to stay dry.

Made a drop-down table, so far I’m happy with it🙌 had to make custom hinges that mount to the internal extrusion. Just need to figure out a way to lock it when I’m not using it

Dude nice work. I haven’t seen anything like this. Would be great to have a table at the feet for drinks or movie. All sorts of pros on this.
A+

This is brilliant! I can’t believe we haven’t seen anyone else do this yet! What if the string you’re using to support it had a carabiner to attach it to the table. Then when you want to stow it, they would just clip together holding the table up?

I have had these for about a year now and the inside is turning all black for some reason. They don’t seem to be very leak proof. Still working, but looking ugly :sweat_smile:

:exploding_head: so this is happening in mine today I guess. Good work, sir.

Haha thats awesome, what size board?

Brilliant. I’ve been prototyping an idea like this for a while, your approach is even simpler and more straightforward than the simplest thing I could think of. Congrats.

I used a 48”x24” 1/4 birtch plywood. I’m thinking of selling the hinges as a kit for y’all to do it yourself at home. All you will need is a piece of plywood

Made this fairing that eliminated wind noise and yielded a small but stat sig mpg increase

Rad! Get some heavy duty magnets to store it in the up position when not in use. Should work!

Test fitting my drop down-slide out kitchen system. It will house the stove, utensils, and cutting board. :call_me_hand:

I would definitely look at buying hinges if you offered them! Or even just some sketches on how you made them… :wink:

Thanks! I’ll def do a quick sketch once it’s all done. Remind me in a week if I haven’t reached out!

As for the hinges, I found them on Amazon. I’ll find the link and send it your way.
