Hey all,

Just got our chairs back from my brother in law he said flexsteel chairs are not meant to come apart. He did a great job reupholstering them for us. He has the dinette bottoms done and my buddy Ben put the new wood floor in. The spaces are there for the couches. I am actually using the bottom of the couch as my plenum. The House and Bus air and heat come into the bottom cavity of the couch and are routed out through closable home vents. The next thing to be done is all that blue naugahyde in the cockpit will be replaced by cream stuff that matches the chairs









The couches are in the garage almost ready to go in but it's Easter week and I work at a Church. I have "Higher Priorities" you might say! ;D ;D

Do we ever actually reach a "cruising altitude" with these things. Seems like there's always something.

The 8V92 was sold last week. It was the right choice.

Are you still going to Ron's in April?  Obviously not this week.

I need to get started on my bus for the year, but I really need to get the house cleaned and a few other things first.  I usually don't start on the bus until late April, but it has been unusually warm this year. The lake across the street will probably have ice out this week and that usually doesn't happen until April 15th or later.

Is that real leather or Ultraleather?  I'm getting so I like Ultraleather better even though it is man made.  (I originally thought it was a different way of treating an animal hide, but it isn't.)

Brian,
It's naugahyde. We drove to northern Wisconsin to get the chairs and all the lakes were open. Came home and most of the lakes are iced over. It's kinda weird that the north is thawing first.

Looks great. I really like my Flexsteel seats. You'll really appreciate them after sitting in them for a long time when traveling.

Looking good Steve!

So you seem to think it will get finished someday, HA! It'll never happen! ::)
