RE: [SilverStreak] Hinge Delivered-Ken Wilson



I had to wipe some of the yellow droplets off the hinges....must be
Snuffy's.  Just hosed them good in the driveway then took the torch to them
to them dry.

The trailer has an A&E 5000 Travel Awn.  The springs are shot and all of the
aluminum pieces are rotted.  Last month, I replaced the bottom brackets and
feet with the new style.  Next are the lift arms and push pins....lots of
drilling and rivets.  The old roller tube is OK, but not the springs.  Once
I get the new springs in...a new awning cover and valence.  I can't get the
old vertical stripped one, so it is getting a nice brown and yellow
cover...Mocha...to go with the gold trim.  Figured, with the blue, it would
look too much like an shhhh....AIR STREAM....

Ken,

Somebody must have supercharged the snail because your package I left at the
PO yesterday at 4:45 pm was delivered to you at 2:55 pm today! Poor snail
must
be smok'n!

By now of course having had 5 hrs and my instructions, you have already
installed the hinges. If you did not use my instructions, please remove and
do
again using my instructions, pretending you are not an engineer. Pay special
attention to the Opre installation directions at the end in case something
stronger than beer is needed. Please finish the Chinese version.

Uh, Snuffy gave yours a destruction and acid test. Result: Pass!
