RV Lithium Battery Setup for Under $1000 – NO Modifications Required!

I figured out how to add lithium battery power to my travel trailer for boondocking WITHOUT expensive permanent modifications. This setup uses a Pecron F3000 LFP battery station and lets me: ✅ Run traditional shore power ✅ Boondock on battery only✅ Hybrid mode (charge while using) ✅ Remove it in 5 minutes to use elsewhere Total cost way less than traditional lithium installs, zero cutting/wiring/fusing required, and completely portable....

How I Made My RV Water Pump Almost Silent (4 Cheap Fixes That Actually Work)

If you’ve ever been woken up at 2 a.m. by your RV water pump because someone flushed the toilet or washed their hands, you already know the pain.

If you’ve ever been woken up at 2 a.m. by your RV water pump because someone flushed the toilet or washed their hands, you already know the pain. For us, it got so bad that the first thing I used to do when pulling into a campsite was hook up city water—just to avoid the […]

☕ So… I just got back from an RV trip.

While watching the gas pump spin, I realized we RV’ers do, say, and think some ridiculous things.

Some of them deserved to be immortalized.
So I went on a design bender and made… an entire merch line about it. 🤷‍♂️

This mug? Perfect for:
👉 Campsite coffee mornings
👉 Road trip survival fuel
👉 Or that one friend who always “forgets” to chip in for gas

🎨 Designed by me. Printed in the USA. Available in multiple sizes and colors.

Apparently I get bored easily. So… new stuff.

DIY Metal Fabrication started as a page about welding, fixing, and building “serious” stuff — mic stands, accessibility ramps, beehive stands, vehicles. You know, practical things.

Then I bought a 3D printer. Then another one. Then somehow I started designing toys, weird gadgets, and mugs about RV fuel bills that make NASA blush.

So yeah… I officially gave up on “sticking to one product.”
Instead, I made a shop — Creative Enterprises LLC — to corral all the chaos into one place.

Here’s what you’ll find now:
🔧 Fab projects (because I still weld things)
🖨️ 3D prints & prototypes (because I can’t stop tinkering)
☕ Sarcastic mugs & merch (because my sense of humor pays no bills… yet)
🐝 Random stuff like foldable and adjustable beehive stands (don’t ask, just accept it)

Basically: if it can be made, printed, welded, or put on a mug, I’ll probably do it.

👉 Here’s the shop that proves it:
