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 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.

There were several surprising things about the outdoor kitchen. There are 4 large holes in the back of the kitchen and a few small ones that are superhighways for critters. 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…
Not sure if it’s safe to put a screw in the wall? Me either. However, I was able to grab some photos with dimensions when i was fixing the outdoor outlet. You’ll note that I wasn’t being careful so one of the photos is in inches and the rest are in millimeters. I’ll convert both…
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…
It’s amazing how many paper towels we go through on a camping trip. We put one of these holders outside and one inside. They have a “clicky” movement so the towel roll doesn’t move unless you really mean it to. This is great for dealing with road vibration. Note: I installed these with the screws…
