Re: [A/S] Blinds Blues



  Maybe I have a little too much attention to detail
sometimes.  I used the retractable, adjustable,
spingloaded spindle from WalMart but not the vinyl
shade that came with it. For the bath shade, I used a
thin naugahyde type (oil cloth?)material from a fabric
store adhered to the spindle with contact cement. It
completely blocks light and sheds water.  To keep the
shade secured at the bottom, I used an expandable
curtain rod through the shade sleeve with the curtain
rod brackets mounted upsidedown against the side of
the trailer.
  I used the same spindles for the rest of the windows
with barkcloth fabric from www.reprodepot.com. Cool,
man.
