The Co-op, 2 yesterday and powder coating

Of course I have to say it’s fun getting 2 more videos out so go there but check this out:  morin-powder-coating-12  Our powder coated moved but it’s still worth the 17 mile ride to get work like this.  Check out the Manny rear rotors that go with the reaction arm system morin-powder-coating-1500 and with the powder coated candy blue sapphire metallic  morin-powder-coating-16  completed with a powder coated Quad bag system too  morin-powder-coating-15  and if that’s not enough we dropped of Manny’s 1 on front suspension for the same powder coat treatment  morin-powder-coating-13  morin-powder-coating-14

All that will go on this  morin-powder-coating-8  and from there …….. only the Shadow knows!  It’s gonna be hard to not see this project! so stay tuned…..

After a Sunday afternoon of building on Fandango’s inside entry door panel    bill-door-4  to this…. bill-door-10 Installed the new exterior latch and lock,  and the mechanism modified ext-handle-mod nd now mounted in place on the door  bill-door-11 with the upper window closeout black vinyl to match the exterior black paint bill-door-12  Sorry bad pic… I’ll do more pics as I finish this off today….

My goal of 4 “Motohome Rehab Ranch” videos was as usual a bit ambitious…. Hey, if you’re trying to get to the moon… shoot for Mars…. we did however belch 2 out and I’m lowering my expectations to 2 again today.  See how we do.

One thing I wanted to plunk out to you guys first is the intent of the Patreon involvement:

Look, you guys have known me for a long time… and through those years… actually decades now we’ve been through many things,  I’ve enjoyed watching it grow and I think you guys have gotten some things out of it.

You guys also know I have offered those that support me my ear whenever help is needed…. 24/7 through my cell phone.  I’ve had the honor of helping many in that special time of need and it’s been very rewarding to me.  Well, not really.. it’s taken mush time and energy to follow through doing this for folks.  In the past we called it the “CMW Project” where if you appreciated I would be on my phone whenever you need something about your coach that I would be there….. if that has any value then send me $40 a year and you won’t have to say  “sorry to bother you Jim but…..”  .  This way you have accepted the responsibility to support this information line.  Last year we had close to 500 members, thank you for your support.  Why would someone do that you ask?  Let me give you how one conrsation went:

ring…ring…. HOLY CRAP man.. I was driving along just fine ( just so you know these talks always start with that)… everything was fine and WHAM… the right rear wheel took off and past me on the highway!  The oach was still going OK but I watched the wheel bounce across the median, through a fence and into a ditch..ha… the whole spindle melted off…. CRAP   now what!!!! 

See… you have to let the pilot “doenload”, he has to tell someone about that thing that just happened…….. I do that then I say, “Man, I’m sure glad I’m not YOU!”  Bing the pilot back to the ground so we can work the problem… That’s it, what are our assets, your location, and what’s needed.  I o that alote, I answer questions all through the day, we do the “Daily Pose” ight here….. all that communication takes time…. time is labor and labor is money.  o… I is hoping you understand having me in your pocket has value and many have…. NOW, you have still another form of communication, an accepted format to share ideas, time, labor information and learning. 

Hey, all this has to have more value.. supporting “Motorhome Rehab Ranch” is carrying on the CMW Project to a point we can use some exciting new tools. 

SO.…..if all ALL this has increased value then join as a Patreon annual Member over on “Motorhome Rehab Ranch” and you will get along with my thanks… a Co-op T shirt…. global access to the “Motorhome Rehab Ranch” site and a care package of a pin  cmw-pin, a Co-op pen, liene plate over, and some other neat stuff.  But it will also be all about the information format that Patreon affords us.  upport this and I will continue to support you

OK, that’s nough NPR styled  fund drive…… ep, I’ excited about this… let me know what you thing…. I’ll see ya tomorrow….here… and there….
