Another new discovery

It seems just about the time I think my poking around and working on the Coach these past 6 months has revealed most of its secrets, something else happens. I was sitting back on the front recliner with the lever pulled -- taking a break from my wet-sanding and buffing (huge job!).
Anyway, I look over at the corian table that slides, and I notice a vertical hinged access door for the first time -- against the outside wall.

Opening it, I see there is a corian insert stored in there -- that fits nicely -- to complete the table-top in the extended position. Looks like it was never used.

I had no idea it was there.

Very cool, because now my computer LCD screen, cpu, and keyboard fit perfectly there and I have my "workstation" area problem solved!

Gotta love the detail FT built into these Coach's.

All the best,

Michael

If your like most of us it takes years to find all those little doodads that Foretravel put into the coaches...Sure is fun searching..

I know what you mean about sitting back in a chair and seeing something that you had missed. My wife and I never had a place for the pots and pans in our U295 until one day I was sitting at the table having a beer and I though I might give THAT LARGE DECORATIVE DOOR under the cooktop a pull from the bottom.Gam

We bought our first Foretravel from the original owner who had owned it 14 years. He never new the entire time he owned the coach that the chair just inside the mid entry door was a recliner. I owned it three years before learning that the steering wheel was adjustable up and down as well as tilting. There are many little niceties that Foretravel included the are not readily recognizable. Thank goodness for the Forum.
