Installed these bad boys today. One of the twin covers had a small rip but other than that I love them.
Clever lil hooks for hanging attached with GFC track nuts. Plan on clipping roof net and/or making my own retention system that’s modular and 100% removable without adhesive. Also installed at factory frame threaded holes.
Not the greatest picture but this is exactly the setup I have going on upstairs. Those same tie down rings and a bungy net off Amazon. Works perfectly for my needs.
Great idea with the hooks!
Love my OSG sheets and Scott the owner is even better! We chatted on the phone for a solid 45 mins lol!
Haha yeah he’s a cool dude he called me before shipping my sheets and we too had like a 45-minute conversation turns out he visited the town I grew up in and knew of people I knew.
Highlights of randomness in the last few weeks.
Trying out some designs. I can CAD all day long but cardboard concept development is where its at! Check out my love seat, made from a Hest Foamy mattress folded in half (across). My reading corner.
Heater upgrades, will break it down later. But its solid and I think I’m almost done haha.
Made my Patagucci Puffy wall for the GFC. Shout out to @the_philxx for hooking me up with the Primaloft and quilted insulation! Kind of a adhoc project today, suprised how well it turned out. The reading nook is definately getting fancy.

How’s that heater work for you and in what temps? Do you leave something unzipped or open for safety at night?
Good questions, exaclty what I was wondering! I don’t run the heater when sleeping and I have a CO detector when I am running it. Initially I got the buddy heater as a temporary fix until I got a diesel heater, but now after my nights testing at the ski lots I’ve determined that a buddy heater is so convenient and efficient I have no desire for more. My coldest night has been 12 degrees F and it was easy with my “-25F” bag. Biggest benefits of the buddy I would say is almost instant warm hangout, and super efficent. A lot of people complaining about condensation but I’ve barely experienced any since I don’t run it overnight.
Where’s the best place to mount co detector, any suggestions on place and mounting solutions?
I only have a cheap one right now that’s not mounted yet. I’d definitely recommend a unit that displays the CO particulate reading, mine doesn’t and I’ve been looking for a high quality alarm to replace it. Mine has a test button, but those generally are only testing the battery and not the alarms ability to sense gas. I put mine close as possible to the heater so it would pick up any CO output.
Here’s some guidelines.
Thanks for sharing
Hi Chris! Thanks for posting a great photo of the Overland Softgoods fitted sheets. I read that one of your fitted sheets has a small tear in it… Please contact me so that we can replace that for you!!!
That sort of thing happens once in a blue moon… but, it does happen. I want to get that replaced for you ASAP!
Give me a shout or email at the shop and we can arrange to get the sheet with a tear replaced post haste!
Happy trails…

I bought the largest and the smallest. The smallest is for ice and the largest is for cocktail and food. I picked this brand because, the price, different sizes, and the batteries are swap able and can be used as usb charging.
It’s killing me that the stripes don’t all go the same direction.
I had to have some way to know what one was ripped this is how I do that
Finally got the maxtrax out of the way in the camper and up on the roof using mounts from @Wild_Mitten. Really nice, high quality parts.
