Hi Wade.. This is Jan from Oregon. I camped by you last season in my Scamp. I enjoy your videos. Have a great season. Praying the weather cools soon for y'all. scamp.
If your screws are no longer holding in the floor, just rotate the table base a few degrees, so that the holes fall in between the old ones. Then you can drill all new pilot holes, and every screw will be guaranteed a good grip. 🙂
It's unseasonably warm here in the Albuquerque area too, but not as much as where you are. It should be a bit cooler all around in the next few days. What shape is the floor of your trailer in around that spot where your table support is?
it is a flat plywood, vinyl covered area. It feels and sounds stout when I tap around.The gray water tank is directly underneath the trailer where the stand is mounted. I can't see or access the condition of the bottom of the plywood flooring.
@@WadeQuick I was just wondering if (and this is assuming your fix doesn't work... which I hope it does) you might screw that receptacle/receiver onto a piece of board and then screw/bolt that onto the floor.
That is option 2. There is a rust circle with a wider diameter that suggests a larger diameter base was used in the past. Screwing down a plywood base using that diameter, and mounting the casting to the new material is a good idea
@@WadeQuick forgive me if I succumbed to the temptation of tellin' my granny how to suck eggs. 😅 With your many years in welding and fabrication, I've no doubt you already figgered that out.
Hopefully it will cool down soon. Trailer looks good.
I'm looking forward to following your example of rv living ( when I turn 62 in a couple of years ) and I thank for sharing a small part of your life.

scamp.
Good to hear from you. The 28th will begin the cooling trend. Today is hot and humid but quite bearable with shade and ice

use some kind of dowel in the screw holes , it will help give the screws something to bite on.

I need all the advice I can get, lately I get fixed on old ideas.
