Clothes Hanger

Found this swivel clothes hanger on Amazon for about $12.  Works great for hanging out the next day's clothes.  Swivels out of the way when not in use.  I drilled a small hole for a cotter pin and put a small piece of Velcro on the end to keep it from tapping against the sidewall during travel.

    Great idea, @Tabaz.  Looks like it was designed for the T@B (i.e., works well with the rearward slope of the ceiling.)

    Here is the link:

    Similar models take four screws - their mounting plate may be too wide for the location on the valance.  In order to get the most height from the seat cushion, it needs to be mounted as close to the ceiling as possible.  This means the swivel arm must be in its slot before putting the screws into the wood.  One nice thing about this location, is that clothes on a standard hanger don't impede access to the entry door.

    Be careful not to mount the top screw too high such that your drill chuck rubs against the curved ceiling.  Also, the cotter pin idea doesn't work that well because there is a lot of swivel to the arm.  A better way to secure the arm would be to simply use a wire tie attached to the cargo netting (slip the wire tie over the end of the arm during travel).

    Hello. I have a 2019 T@B CS. Same shelf at the door. Where did you get the black elastic cargo net? I can only find large ones made for the trunks of cars. Thanks in advance. Enjoy the camping season.

    They come as a set of two from the factory One for each valance over the side windows).  In the old days we would simply call Elsie and she would immediately send them out.  Now you need to contact your dealer.  Not sure they're available directly from the vendor because of the custom size.

    Hello @Tabaz, did you use screws that came with the swivel kit for your tab wall or shorter?  What wall screws did you use? Thanks

    I believe the screws that came with it.  They have little decorative caps that snap over the screw head.
