That's a much better use of this space! But don't forget to lay your bottles down so as not to dry out the cork, LOL!

Now that's what I call a great use of space.

I guess your going to stock a full bar in the hamper compartment.

Oh now...56...gotta go with Naykid's idea of sleeping bottles- you are running the risk of breakage when you get the WW stuck on the sandhill and gotta get it out.


Soooooo...seems logical that since you're close to wine country that you're a wino...whatdayagonnado for us beer drinkers? You expect us to make a beer cellar? Maybe it works for Merlot, but Silver Bullets need an icebox.

I'll wait for the pics, OK? You're close, but no cigar there buddy!

That's a good one

We'll we had Sandy Feet and King Salami over for
the inspection and we sampled some fine Charles
Shaw 2003 Merlot. BTW, it was an excellent week for
that bottle.

Anyway, since King Salami is a great wine connoisseur he
also suggested that we store the fine wine on it's side as
Naykid recommended. Heck, what do I know? A bottle of
wine that lasts more than a week in my house means that
we're out on the road.

WWFan, I'll still be working on a solution to this problem...........

OK...but you only get ONE week...and check the Sewer hose thread- Mike need more ideas- he's perplexed and goin' nuts!

I now get the sense you're NOT the connoisseur of wine as depicted in the foto...although I was impressed you knew what Merlot was , soooooo...what's your poison? And was that the shelf that is supposedly holding Lady Di's pots and pans? (I have to assume at this point you would've had pics for that and poted 'em!).

Don't 'cha love it? You're just a hoot...May 13th?

There is so much cabinet space in this rig, the
pots and pans will find their niche..... what
ever my dear wife wants

You bet.... can't wait for the May 13th weekend!
The entrance to Dove Springs is approximately 8 miles past the Jawbone
Market if heading North on Hwy 14.

good catch on those bottles standing up

my folks live up in Sonoma and have a little sub-house wine cellar with a case or so from a lot of those wineries up there. i will climb down the ladder into that cellar when I visit them, stumble over the barrels of potatoes and home canned fruits with a lit candle in my hand, past the 300 or so bottles of Napa's and Sonoma's, and go over to where pops always has a case of brew for when my brother or I show up.
you toss a cold Budwieser to me, you are A-OK. my folks look at me and sorrowfully shake their heads

'56, give those fancy bottles to King Salami, and install one of those plug in 6-pack coolers (I have one for the front seat of my truck-for sodas)
Put one of those in, and we use YOUR trailer for the allnight Texas Hold-em poker parties
giddee-up

yea, and thats funny, i heard "we" were building Lady Di a cabinet for her pots and pans and the next thing you know we have a wine cellar

Ahhh oooohh...found a ButtWiper guy...how many could we possible have in the country?! I'll take a lucky guess and say that I bet they outnumber the Merlot poplation! But in a 'sharing' configuration, and a LE3305, I bet 56 can find room for both! Time for that 'second' shelf (for the food- put the refreshments in the fridge- Salami can stand extreme temps and although it might get a tad greasy, it's STILL good- sorry King! ).

And 56! In those high-fluuten homes you can have the rack hangers from the ceiling that hold all the pots & pans- "we donn need no steekin caineets"!! Lady Di will be flabergasted that YOU thought of it. Here to help...just don't do a ride-along and hope to hear the TV.

Oh..the things I expect to find in 56's TH...

Just for the record.... I love Budwiser and I'm thinkin'
out of the box and wonder how I could convert that
empty space in the stairs into back-up ice box for my Bud.....

Now as far as the wine cellar..... it gotta stay. You can't see it in
the picture, but the shelf contact paper even has grape leaves
for the pattern. I do need to add a rack to keep the corks wet,
either that or just make sure that I rotate the stock....

As for the pots and pans, if need be, Lady Di can put'em
in one of the other 50 cabinets in this rig. There is so much
room in this thing.

there is indeed a serious amount of storage.
even the crawl thru under-storage is new for me and will be handy. (i got a long hammock with its own frame)

my PDI guy even told me that the overheads are strong enough for a little kid to sleep in,
(Einstein the PDI guy maybe wasn't )
but i'm sure i'll be able to find a place for all our stuff

In keeping with the theme of this string, I can't remember
if I mentioned that I chucked the swivel TV cabinet and
now have 26 inches to work with instead of 19"

To remove the swivel cabinet, there are three hidden screws
covered by wood grain vinyl tape.
