Y’all are adorable, it’s ok to suck at stuff. Figuring stuff out is an adventure, and adventures are fun.

I’m so excited for y’all! Can you share how you kept your original subfloor so intact to use as a template? We’d like to do the same (except for the back which is even more water damage than yours 🥴)
@Meghanandmatt
@Meghanandmatt 4 месяца назад
Thanks! We actually did nothing to them all winter lol. They just say out on a pallet for the most part. After the 4th snow storm I used them to keep the tarp on the trailer from sinking between the frame
@Clatterbear
@Clatterbear 4 месяца назад
@@Meghanandmatt but how did you pry them out without wrecking them? We haven’t even gotten our interior skins out yet so we have a little while, but given the water damage they are pretty gnarly
@Meghanandmatt
@Meghanandmatt 4 месяца назад
I cut out each and every bolt from the bottom using a pry bar and an oscillating multi tool (Make sure to get a bunch of extra metal blades cause you'll go through them. I found it easiest to pry up on the floor to slide the blade in and cut each bolt above the crossmembers. I just used a hammer and punch to smash the rest of the bolt and nut out from the top down once the floor was off. On ours there was a 5/8" piece of plywood where the first 3 subfloorfloor boards joined so I think that helped prevent them from getting totally wrecked when prying them out. Our floor was far from a perfect template but we just made sure to get the first piece of Coosa cut and didn't have to cut any of the long edges after that first one. I will say we cut slightly too little on our subfloor and our bow in the front should have been ever so slightly hanging over the subfloor cause it was an incredibly tight fit we're still working on with putting the shell back on. Hope that helps!

Next time if you're ever having the fiber glass in your skin problem again. When I used to do auto body collision work, I found that if you apply tape to the affected area and rip it off, it pulls the fiber glass out of your skin. There would be no way in hell you can pick it out because of how fine they are. Use very sticky masking tape, I don't recommend using duct tape for painfully obvious reasons lol. I've also heard people using lint rollers as well.

Hot glue gun and cardboard are the easiest ways to make a solid, rugged template.

Hey guys great video. Question since they sponsored your video did they give you the equipment for free?

loved this. about to do the same thing! what sensors and heating pads did yall use for your tanks??
@Meghanandmatt
@Meghanandmatt 4 месяца назад
Sweet! It was pretty straightforward once we got over the fact that it’s impossible to get it perfect lol. We’re using the Garnet industries SeeLevel sensors. I bought the 710-AR sensors which fit the smaller tanks

Fixing to do a AS restoration and just wanted to know what thickness y’all went with. Wondering about how much just the Coosa board costs were?
@Meghanandmatt
@Meghanandmatt Месяц назад
We went with 3/4” blue water 26 Coosa board. Super easy to work with. Including shipping it cost about $2,400 for 5 sheets if I remember correctly

Some vintage airstreams have different thickness of floors though so double check before ordering
