I had this bottle opener for a year before I figured out where to put it. I’m deathly afraid of putting holes in the Azdel walls. I’m probably being wimpy about it but I’m not willing to take a chance.
I finally realized that I could mount it with a screw and nut right in to the refrigerator panel right next to the kitchen. Even if I screwed it up, I could always buy a replacement for a few bucks!
I really like the magnet. No one has an excuse for leaving a bottle cap on the ground.

I didn’t use the stock screws to install it. I wanted to make sure I gave the plastic cover as much help as possible. I pre-drilled the holes and used pan-head stainless steel screws, nuts and washers to mount it. I took the opener to the store to make sure I matched the head to the original screws.

On nice days we tend to leave the door open so this had to be fixed. Coleman generally makes good products but the included grill…
I’m not particularly paranoid by nature, but the internet can sure make you that way. After reading enough posts about propane tanks being stolen, I decided to do a simple mod to secure the tanks on my 216RBK. I drilled a hole through the giant wing-nut and a matching pair through the security bar that…
I hate having the hoses and shore power cables sitting on the ground. I saw a picture of this on the internet and I thought it was brilliant. I’ve since lost the link of the original, but here’s my version. To make this work, I combined two really good (but still inexpensive) suction cups and…
