Nice work 👍. For those of us without access to a sewing machine, I found some darkout curtains on a mazon that work great. They're 34"x24", and fully cover the Hiker windows, with no light ingress. They come in a 2-pk (so 1 single panel per window), various colors, and are less than 20 bucks. Checkout the Koufall brand at a mazon for Cafe curtains. I have my rods mounted with Command strips, and have found that if I prep the area on the Hiker wall with isopropyl alcohol where the Command strip is going to be, that they remain adhered longer.
It's part of the process. I figure if I made the mistake, then someone else will so it's best to capture it and let others know, "hey here is a potential gotcha". It's all part of sharing to make the community better! Thanks for watching.
Great question. A couple of ways. Pushing the curtains to one side works as there is enough friction between the curtain and rod, the usually stay. I typically don't have the curtains pushed all the way to one side, but if I do and they don't stay put when pushed to one side, I can get some paracord or I have a bunch of small bungies to buddle them in the middle and hold them together on a side. Does that make sense?

Awesome suggestion. I'm pinning this comment!

Always enjoy you showing your mistakes instead of just editing them out. Much more relatable and helps us avoid same pitfalls.

Awesome Job Kyle! Kudo’s to your Mom and Moms everywhere who still sew!
Thanks Freddie. Yes, shout out to all the Mom's out there!
I loved when she was just watching you talk. 😂 oh and curtains look good too
Thanks! I think when she stares at me she is secretly judging me or waiting for the word "cookie". LOL.
Kyle! Love to see someone else modifying a trailer, lol. I'm stealing ideas. See you out there. 73 de Bill
Thanks Bill! You can steal all the ideas I have and then some!
I'm working in my curtains now. I sew, but I can't do anything the easy way. My design works multiple ways, and I'm hopeful things work out 🤞
Measure twice, cut once!
how do you keep the curtains open?
