What did you use for the rod? Looks like bungee cord.
I bought kayak bungee hooks, then I bought a thicker gauged bungee cord. I pre-drilled the holes to keep the wood from splintering while putting the screws in. Did some fancy knots to hold it together tightly after I ran it through the curtain first.

I finished my modifications for my hot water heater box just prior to the trip. High power magnets added to the inside so cosmetically it looks the same from the outside but holds the door open. Modified a basket to drop into the door to hold soap bottles plus made a mount on the basket for a simple one valve faucet. It comes with a shower head I just found this easier for washing stuff. Also the mirror on the inside of the door. Worked really good!!

Looks great, that is one heavy duty paper towel holder.

Any chance you were out on Bee Line Hwy out near the Salt River on Friday afternoon two weeks ago? We were heading out that way and saw a Tacoma pulling a SoCal drop.

I got some of those hooks, now I need to find where the sewing machine is packed away.
