Instead of heading to the mall.. I did some Black Friday shopping on e-bay. Much more fun to find unique items for my vintage project, than more of the "same" that every one else is buying. Here are photo's of my three "finds" starting with a another heater!!! What? Yes, another heater. After doing a bunch of research on the gas model I purchased, I realized that no matter how many safety measures I put in place, I would be laying in the camper at night wondering if my life was about to be snuffed out. My parents best friend, died two years ago on his cabin cruiser boat when he got a little drunk and fell asleep with his portable unvented heater on... so it is a little too close to home. The plan now, is to use the gas heater outside in campgrounds where they do not allow fire pits, and for "pre-bedtime" warm up inside on the very occasional times we boondock. So I found this very cool retro electric heater from England that I will have re-wired by my electrician and put in working order. It needs a little polish, but I love the style.
My "best deal" was the starburst clock.. for $5.50. And it is only about 12 inches across which makes it workable for one of these little trailers. I also bought a set of chalk ware fish for the tiny bathroom I am installing in the trailer.
