BLACK JACK SUPPORT
Now , Hank Van Lammeren is a marine engineer , which gave him the skill and equipment to weld an additional cross-member to the drawbar to suit the couple ’ s Black Jack electric jockey stand . The finish was immaculate , and the couple have wisely left the clamp for the existing manual jockey wheel in place in case of an equipment failure that would hinder their ability to use the Black Jack .
Everything has its place in Daniel ' s caravan , even the tissue box !
Bath mates – a cheap , effective way to add some warmth and cushioning underfoot .
TISSUES AND MATS
Daniel McMahon of Carrum Downs , Vic , loves nothing more than to get away with his sons in their Hilltop Jindabyne . We caught up with Daniel at the Hilltop National Gathering a couple years ago , where he showed us the curtains he ’ d added to the kids ’ bunks , as well as a neat paper towel dispenser . Meanwhile , Daniel has added a cheap tissue box holder to the overhead cabinetry in the doorway . After all , it ’ s little things like this that ultimately make a difference .
Speaking of the little things , Daniel and his sons swear by cheap bath mats on the floor . They don ’ t slip , they provide warmth on bare feet when it ’ s cold , and they ’ re a little more comfortable to walk on .
