LED's

These are the small bulbs with the round base.  I didn't keep a picture of the bulb.

 



These are the small bulbs with the flat base, pictured below.

 

 

These bulbs were completely different than the other 2.  See the picture below.

All the bulbs we've switched out so far are much brighter than the originals.  Plus they don't put off any heat & are much less expensive to run.
We're looking for new LED fixtures for the fluorescent tube lights.  If we just change the bulbs there's some stuff we have to do to bypass the ballast.  We aren't electricians so don't even want to start that.  I've found fixtures online that are basically the same size and work just like the ones we have (8 fixtures),  The new fixtures run about $42 each but only have 2 wires to connect.  We can figure that out.  Will post pictures when that's done.  We'll start with 1 & go from there.

Removed the dinette....easy breezy.

 

Today was the day...I was dying to get rid of the dinette.  I thought about it every night.  It only took about an hour.

 

 We checked under the seats.  Only storage & the carpet ran under it. 

The central vac parts were stored under one side.  They are now being stored in the drawer under the refrigerator...for now. 

 We took the table down 1st then removed the top from the legs.

 Only 6 screws per leg.  They came out very easy.

 You can see where they were.  We'll fluff them up before we have the carpets cleaned.  That won't be done until we get the sofa out.  We're putting in a couple recliners.

 The cushions were kept on with Velcro.  Took the plywood off the seats then unscrewed the rest from the walls & floor.  A lot of screws...dozens!

 Looks pretty good!  I think we'll have screens made for the inside of the outside compartments.  There are locks on these.  You could access them from outside as well as inside.

We put this little outside table here for now.  I think we'll put a small desk under the small window so George can set up his desktop computer.

That's it for now.  We are in the process of changing all the bulbs to LED.  Will let you know how this goes.

Not thrilled with the laundry room color...it was suppose to be lighter.  Kinda looks like a Dreamsicle.

Small modification...

Got a little antsy today so decided to do a small mod in the RV.

Before..wasted space above the cabinet

After...Voila!  We now have a shelf there to store small appliances we don't use all the time.

Getting the S & B ready to sell.

Not much going on in the 5th wheel.  Trying to get the house ready to sell.  Lots of painting going on.  Didn't realize we had so much trim.  Walls haven't been started yet.
