I am looking at attaching curtains to the cabin walls. I have moove awau from the track slides and made brackets out of wood, and rods for the curtains, and remade curtains with "o" rings to slide on rods. I attached the brackets with industrial velcro with adhesive to the side cabin. they held for a week, then let go. My delimma is how to attach the wood to the cabin side. Should I use an adhesive, or screw with picture frame hardware, or screw into the cabin side, then, how deep is the screw able to go? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. dan
