From: MLE Totally cool Matt, I built one of these years ago using Sam Buchanan's builder instructions on his web site. Sam was a very early RV adapter and gave a lot of folks help on these lists of yours many years ago. Check the Archives for his name, you'll find lots of interesting things on his web site.
