Before you get too far down the road, picturing it bouncing along behind the family car, arm yourself with the information you need for all things camper. Campers are not quite homes or cars.

Consider Camper Rehab your Rosetta Stone: Covers camper options: Whether you're considering a fifth-wheel, teardrop, pop-up, or other style of camper trailer, this book runs through all the popular choices. Buying guide: Camper Rehab walks you through the process of evaluating a potential purchase, identifying which issues are fixable and which are deal-breakers, as well as how to spot hidden problems. How-to tutorials: From basic troubleshooting to electrical and plumbing projects, replacing interior surfaces, and clever decorating ideas, there's not shortage of how-to information. Special considerations: How do you work with painted aluminum siding? What's the best way to re-caulk camper seals and seams? How can you re-align a camper door? Even those handy with automotive DIY are sure to learn a thing or two! Visually driven: You'll find detailed illustrations as well as extensive color photography to help you get your travel trailer into shape for your next big—or little—adventure. Written by accomplished DIY author Chris Peterson, whose light and approachable tone is coupled with the hardworking DIY information you need, Camper Rehab is a must-have for anyone with a camper—or seriously considering one!

I wrote this book to show you how an RV renovation can be cheap and easy as long as you know how to start.

I'll show you how to pick the right RV for you, how to plan the interior layout, and what you should be sure to do when undertaking a remodel. You really can do-it-yourself when it comes to RV renovation and remodel. You Call the Shots I'm a bit of a backyard mechanic. Pretty much since I was old enough to hold a wrench, I was working on some sort of project with my dad. He was a tinkerer, inventor, and all-around handyman. His favorite projects were fixing up cars and old campers - Airstreams, motorhomes of all classes, and RVs of all sizes. In fact, when he passed away, I am sure there were at least 3 or 4 unfinished, ongoing projects still left in his garage. Luckily, I inherited much of his know-how when it came to refurbishing and refinishing fixer-uppers. It's Easy - Anyone Can Do It! Redecorating a used RV is the easiest way to customize your new home on wheels. In fact, family vacations taken in an RV are, on average, 27-62% cheaper than other methods of travel. You can see the country and make memories together that you will not soon forget.

Download or read book Traversing the Traction Gap written by Bruce Cleveland and published by Radius Book Group. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traction. Startups Need It. Learn How To Get It. Vision, groundbreaking ideas, total commitment, and boundless enthusiasm characterize most startups, but they require capital to go from promising product to scalable business. More than 80 percent of all early-stage startups fail. Most of them can build a product, but the vast majority stumble when it comes time to take those products to market due to poor “market engineering” skills. Traversing the Traction Gap exposes the reasons behind that scary failure rate and provides a prescriptive how-to guide, focused specifically on market engineering techniques, so startups can succeed. The go-to-market hurdle is insurmountable to many startups. Just when they most need to establish a foothold in the market, they run short on time and money. This is the Traction Gap, that period of time introducing a new product into the marketplace and being able to scale it during a rapidly closing window of opportunity. Traversing the Traction Gap is a practical guidebook for navigating the tumultuous early life of a startup. Based on real-life examples, the advice from Cleveland and the members of the Wildcat Venture Partners team provides a roadmap and metrics for succeeding where others have failed.
