    Screen door weather stripping expansion---sticking at door threshold

    This is kind of a strange problem. If anyone has any similar experience and / or suggestions, please, by all means, chime in. Lately, especially after a rain event followed by freezing air temps, the 'brush' like weather stripping on the bottom of the screen door collects the moisture from the...

    Exterior shower repair M-22 with bunk beds floor plan.

    The shower handle on the hose attachment for the exterior shower assembly developed cracks at the seam on the pistol grip. When the valves are open, water is purging thru these cracks; the shower handle obviously needs to be replaced. I have the part on order from Camping World, currently...

    Is the exterior roof surface and subsurface of the M-22 sturdy enough to walk on in order to perform regular maintenance such as cleaning?
