I found the pex fittings I needed.
I was told that most RV manufacturers do not glue linolium down. They depend on the mouldings & thresholds to hold it. But they trimmed it just a tad too short. I've peeled up enough of the floor to know there has never been a drop of glue under it. And the more I think about it the more I think there may be a reason for that. Perhaps the movement would cause glued linolium to buckle?
No signs of water damage.
I'm ordering a kit from dirtyblinds, actually two kits because my camping buddy has a broken one too. If I can't re-string the shades I'm going to burn my 'I can fix (almost) anything' sign. The 'almost' is there because I tried to fix my attitude but that failed horribly.
It looks like the CW near me has laid off anybody who knew anything. I only saw one 'old timer' in the whole time we were there. And the person working the parts counter was about 25 years old and not someone we've ever seen there before. Not to imply that a 25 year old couldn't know anything about RV's. Just that one!
