Four new mods!!!

With my DH's help, I have FOUR mods to share!
1. The propane stove on our Starcraft was so big and bulky. We prefer to use a
    small, portable table stove. So we removed the big propane tank and added a
    toolbox. It holds the portable stove, two mini propane takns, the Coleman
    lantern, fuel for lantern, the kids' little fishing poles, tackle box, hatchet,  
    bungee cords, and a few other small items. I painted it white with white
    paint for plastic and added the stars to match the pu.
   

2. We added two 6' pvc pipes for  bunk end poles and awning poles. They also
    hold our marshmallow sticks :)

3. Since we are no longer using the stove that came with the pu, we removed
    J channel and brace from the stove and made a new table for the side of the
    camper.

4. We also made a chock for the tongue wheel out of scrap 4 x 4s and threaded
    rods.

Since you removed your propane tanks, how does your heat work? :confused:
And where did the battery go?

Our camper does not have heat. We use small ceramic heaters to stay warm when it gets chilly. It is an older camper, but it does have AC. It doesn't have a battery, and we camp where we have electricity, so I don't plan on getting one.

Neat mods. Thanks for sharing!

Nice mods.  Got me thinking.  Excuse my ignorance but how do you get the wheel in the chock?  Does it open up?  Too bad we use the propane for the fridge when we don't have electricity so we can't remove it, it looks great!

The mods look great.

 
Shelly I am guessing you lower the wheel into the chock when you unhitch.  :)

Yeah brain dead moment.  The 3 & 5 yr old & the DH home sick the last two days, can't think straight anymore.

Thanks Shelly
