Quick question about the roof vent as well. Are those standard sizes? I had someone measure the outside cover of my vent and it came up to 10.5" and the only replacement vents I can find are 9" vents. Would that be the same size? How easy is it to pull out a vent without destroying it so I can...
I saw the picture on your previous threads but I think I overlooked some of the value in your design. I was more concerned about damaging the bar with the chain, but if you have had no problems at all, it's probably worth considering. My springs are connected to the eye bolts right now but I'd...
