Well a deal I couldn't refuse came up recently and yesterday my first popup came home!  I've got a 1995 Starcraft 1224 Starlounge in pretty darn good shape.  I am super excited once I opened this up and saw what I had to work with.  First the good: Water heater works, furnace/heater works, water pump works, fridge works, lift system works, canvas is good, cushions good, heck pretty much everything is in great shape.  Now the issues I have:  the previous owner had a minor mice issue.  I have curtains that are chewed and holes in some of the screen.  The wheel on the trailer jack is also bent beyond repair.

My questions are:

1. What can I repair/patch the holes in the screen with?

2. Where can I purchase a new trailer jack with a heavy duty wheel?

3. What is a good general site for RV/camper parts and accesories?

The curtains are a non-issue as I have a sister in-law that sews.  All in all I came out like a bandit for what I paid.  Like they say...it's not what you know it's who you know!

Thanks for the help!

 Scott,
 congrats.. go to local big box hardware store they will have screen repair kits if you want to go that way.
 same on the trailer jack or try harbourfrieght. ( not sure on spelling) they do have web-site.
 #3 watch the banner ads here on sponsors, check out e-bay (pop-up or camper)and rvingoutpost.com
 hope that helps.
