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 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…
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…
