Icemaker...I like it. Rather than taking up freezer space in the refer, what about the free standing ice makers?

Team Improvements...lol.
We struggle with the satellite wiring in the units due to all the combinations of receive locations. For example, do we wire it to have one receiver in the living room feeding the other bedrooms? Do we just do a loop so you can have a receiver in each bedroom and the a separate feed from the dish. If you can help me design a "reasonable" cost solution, I'm listening.

That would be awsome. Maybe it could be in an overhead cabinet with a pull out drawer of ice that hung below the cabinet 5 or 6". Don't know if its possible like that. May just have to have a pull out lower shelf with the icemaker mounted on it or something.

I'll work on that!
But unless its changed there is no place to put a receiver

What you need is a switch I believe.
A-b-c
Main coax goes the main tv then it can be switched to a "main tv" b "bedroom" c "bunk house"

A fancier switch would go something like this.
A b or c
A and b
A and c
B and c

Pretty much what you use for your gaming switch.

Luckily I have a uhf reciver so I can mount it in the basement as my receiver doesnt need to "see" the remote to change channels.

Would you choose to have the icemaker take up room in your pass through compartment or your kitchen?

So with todays technology, are we to the place where we would only have a main receive and then "hoppers" for other TV's

Glass door panel instead of wood on door over Genesis unit. PITA to leave the door open to have the remote 'talk' to the unit.

What about adding a plastic conduit, that goes from behind main TV to bunkhouse TV and to master bedroom TV area? That's what I do when I frame houses for people, add a couple runs in places they may want later on, with a full size biz and single gang cover plate at the ends

Thanks jtstromsburg, great idea. I know Columbus has had some success running a conduit from the pass through compartment up to the attic area.

Thanks.

Why was a knife holder not put in the 36qbok? Nor a med cabinet in the 1/2 bath.

I would like to see the steps hinged for shoe storage. Also a surge protector as a built in option would be good. Having the outdoor kitchen lowered without the countertops for those of us who are on the short side. In the QBOK a lock on the half bath door seems easy enough

I would like to see a dishwasher drawer in the area under the fridge.

I second the vacuum dust pan and ice maker

Laundry hamper in place of the cabinet by the stool. A tilt out style.

I was asking I wanted to see what is looked like. We've been thru the 32CKTS at a recent show and don't recall seeing it. I may want to copy it as a mod for the 32rcts.

Thank Sabre Sam!

Hmmmm. Well 6 of 1, half dozen of the other. A case could be made for both.
Or even in outside kitchen on models with them.

When ordering it with leveling system option.

I'm 99% sure we had to delete the knife holder due to a new RVIA code about flammable things close to the stove. I need to have someone visit the possibility of having slits cut in the solid surface pc we now use. No good answer on the med cabinet other than PD picked to do that. I will forward your comment.
