What have you fixed on your motorhome this week?

[Nikwilko]

What the Bilt Hamber stuff like? I.e like waxoyl or more like Lanoguard?

The cavity wax is Closer to Lanoguard in consistency and will wash off if used in wheelarches like Lanoguard would but never sets hard so is great underfloor and in the cavities. The ub (brown) or (uc) clear is harder wearing and ideal for arches. It's a lot thinner than bitumen underseal, whn I did my T4 years ago it lasted well and didn't crack or peel off the surface like bitumen underseal. 2 thin coats seem to work well.

Sometimes the drawer catches fail to lock. This results in the drawer and it’s contents hitting the floor when driving around a bend. Made a panel that not only prevents this mishap but looks ok and also kept me occupied.
Not only this, it matches a shelf I made a while ago.

Replaced the led lighting strips on my Maxx fan. Old ones had several failed sections & a new blind/cover was £99. So I got 5 strips on eBay for £8. Took apart & re fitted in about an hour. Well pleased.

What happened to the previous motorhome, I thought you were doing extensive component replacement to get it back on the road ?
Good luck with the new van

It getting so old I am having problems getting parts for it it running it ready for a mot.
But frustrating trying to keep the old girl on the road.
Then there’s parking it it only a matter of time before I am to old to mess about with it.
A smaller camper be better for us we don’t need a six birth van anymore.
Even the grandkids are too old to go away with nanny and grandad.
It not coole
So smaller is better less fuel easier to park
Les on ferries
Win win
