[A/S] Convection micro v. standard gas oven; Wilson art flooring

["Alan P. Owens" <apolaw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A belated thanks to Andy for his information on switching out the cook top 
for a full stove with oven. The latest configuration I have run across is 
the microwave installed under the cook top.  There is an overhead cabinet 
at the opposite end of the counter that in other units is where the 
microwave is installed.  The microwave involved was a  Sharp model (Model # 
unknown.. forgot to write it down) which appears to  be original equipment. 
The question is will the overhead cabinet accept the microwave leaving the 
under cook top space available for an stove oven combination.

On another subject, Hunter asked how I liked my Wilson Art floor... I love 
it.. I am looking for a late 80's early 90's 34 and I think the first thing 
I would do is replace all of the carpet.  I have yet to be in a 
campground  or location where you don't constantly  track something 
in.  With the wood floor you can just sweep it out and shake out area rugs. 
They guys who installed the flooring preferred Wilson Art over Pergo, 
possible just a personal choice, but there had been some discussion about a 
version of Pergo that was subject to water damage either through absorption 
or water getting to the underside of the material.  My floats on an thick 
"rubber"underlayment and is finished off with quarter round moulding.  When 
it was done the guys put vinyl in the batch which makes a lot more sense 
than carpet....particularly good for those streamers with bad or 
misdirected aim.

	Whether Hunter would like parquet flooring better I do not know.  I can 
only say I am very pleased with mine.  It is light maple in color and 
brightens up the trailer... I did look at cork and think that would be a 
good alternative.  My job was done in February and the guys who did it 
thought it would be tough to do in the winter because they had concerns 
regarding temperature and the adhesives to be used.  I also believe that 
Cork takes more surface preparation to avoid a silhouette of  imperfections 
in the under floor.  My recollection is that  Daisy has installed Cork.
