Although I haven't been active with this site I work on my trailer a lot. I'm getting ready to install cabinets in my trailer. I have read a lot about welting but I would like information on how to attach it to the cabinets. Thanks. Gary.

You tuck it in behind the wood on the cabinet as you install it. I know mobletec shows how to do it on one of his videos. Hopefully someone else will chime in who knows which one.

On my Aristocrat, it was all stapled on. I reinstalled it the same way.

For a cabinet, I staple it to the rear to hold it in place with just the bulb overhanging. Then when the cabinet is screwed in place it is tightly sandwiched between the wall and cabinet. The "sandwich" effect holds it in place permanently not the staples. Hopefully that makes sense.

Thank you. What kind of staple gun. I'm not a very good shot with the one I have. I tried T50 staples 1/4. I have a cheap electric gun and a hand one. The hand one seems to work better.

I have the arrow model T50P non electric hand stapler and it seems to sinkum in quite nicely, unless I hit a hard spot. I also have a hammer stapler, Now that thing is dangerous, I can seem to get staples punched in everywhere but where they are needed.

I have all lots of pictures I'd love to post. Viks. How do you do that. I have a photo bucket account I've uploaded pictures to it but don't get how you add them like you do and also get them in the proper order. I've read the tutorials

I use the IMG link from Photobucket and just paste it. The problem that I have is, if I change Windows to get more picture links, when I go back to VTT, my post is gone. I have to save it after each link is added and then click edit post to add another. Maybe it's just my computer, though?

Be sure to use a computer rather than a mobile device. It is much easier to post photos that way.
Go to Photobucket and pull up the picture you want to post. Click on "IMG URL" in the box at right. When you click, Photobucket will highlight yellow and copy it for you. (or right click and choose copy)
Start your reply post and type whatever you want to say. Then push CTRL and V at the same time. That will paste the link in the post. (alternatively, right click and choose paste)
I double space ("enter" twice) and can then choose another picture. Repeat the steps above.
NOTE: use only copy and paste, not the little icons at the top of a reply page. Place the cursor where you want the photo and then paste.

I've made constructing building my cabinets into quite an ordeal. I made a jig and got bendable plywood to make the curb. Then used Birch vainer to cover it . I just can't get posting the pictures I have no IMG URL
