Fiberglass repair is really not very difficult to do as long as you don't mind filling - sanding, filling - sanding, repeat (plenty of YouTube vids and info available over at the FiberglassRV.com forum). The biggest issue is getting the gel coat color to match. The folks at Oliver should be able to tell you exactly what color you have and even (perhaps) send you a small amount of it. I know that they spray it on for any of the small repairs that I've seen them do. Good luck! Bill

THAT looks like a "Holiday Gift Stuff" to me! Bill

Perhaps Black Friday is a good day to start a thread about 2024 potential gift items. I have used one pound bottles of propane for a long time but have always hated the thought of simply throwing them away when they were empty. Yes, I tried recycling them but found that difficult to do given the few places that will accept them. Yes, I tried connecting a hose to a larger tank but found that to be a bit cumbersome. Yes, I tried a five pound tank but didn't like it. Finally, a couple of years ago I saw a one pound tank (Flame King) that was (legally) designed to be refilled. But, there were a couple of design items of that tank that I didn't like. Finally, about a year ago the company that makes the Big Buddy/Mr. Heater propane heaters can out with a refillable one pound tank that seemed to be what I was looking for, so, I bought a couple - a Fuel Keg. To use this tank I also needed what they call the Refill Kit. I've now used these tanks and refilled each of them three times with no problems. It is a simple process that takes less than five minutes (from dead start to putting everything back where I got it). A full one pound goes into each tank during the refill and they work exactly like the old disposable tanks but you simply don't throw them away. Assuming that you can purchase the throw away tanks for $5.00 each and I refill each of the refillable tanks about ten times I will start to save money in addition to not adding to the landfill. There are a ton of review videos (like THIS one) or (THIS one for Flame King) on YouTube. Happy shopping! Bill

Hull # 117 looks like the day it left the factory - no cracks at all. Bill

If you had let us know the year of your Ollie we could be in a better position to answer your question. However, in any case, find the wires coming out of the back side of the detector and follow them until you find the fuse on the negative wire. On older Ollies this is just a short distance from the back of the detector. Bill

Mossemi was/is one of those owners and I believe that there were others. Bill

Great addition, John. Now, grab a can of Krylon semi-gloss black spray paint and give that hitch a shot. All will look new again. Bill

I've got no solution (other than pulling the plug on that LED) for the fridge light(s) problem. But, in order to keep any odors at bay while in storage, first take a half dozen newspaper pages, crumple them up and stick them in the fridge and freezer with the door(s) cracked open. Bill

OK - How's this for a "bump"? These tickets are just begging for a new home - someone out there can use them! Bill

Might something like THIS work for keeping that door closed? Bill p.s. "invention is the mother of necessity" and I really like your work.

Craig - Sure do wish I could use these tickets of yours! And as Seadawg said above - thanks for offering them here on the Forum. Bill

That front wheel drive must be awesome though. 🤪

Richard - If its not too late - Be sure to take a camera (and use it a bunch) and a small notebook. Have fun! Bill

I have no idea - but - have you contacted Oliver Service about this? Bill
