    I think I’m going to do this.  No more jacking with that stupid handle!  Check out the vid here.

    Pretty sure these are the ones he used.

    Those magnets may be better than what he used. I didn’t see any sign of the screws on the smaller magnets, watched it three times to make sure. Now, if I can just remember this long enough to get the parts…….

    I remembered! Picked up the magnets today at Lee Valley, if we get a warm spell I’ll try to install them. Put them in the truck so I can’t forget them.

    It would have been cheaper to order online, I can’t go to Lee Valley without buying something more than what I went for. I thought I did well, only spent $50!

    I didn’t buy the bladder, but posted it because others might be interested.

    Two pairs of ratcheting pruners, I use these for cutting plastic tubing and heavy power cable at work, usually get quite few years out of a pair, much superior to to the hose cutters that are on the market, but hard to find.
    A shot glass graduated in ounces, teaspoons, tablespoons, and milliliters. Cold/flu season will be on us soon, always nice to measure medications accurately!

    Not yet, but I still know where I put them. (I think) Along with the other parts that winter cut short the installation time for.  New stabilizer jacks, storage compartment locks, screen magnets and probably a bunch that I’ve forgotten. Still haven’t finished the LED projects and getting rid of the 3M splice connectors that Jayco is so fond of.

    There’s been a dearth of warm weather, at least warm enough to leave the door open while I figure out how to get it right. When it comes to drilling holes of a specific depth, you only get one shot.
