Re-stringing A Window Shade

In the RV there are special window shades on all the windows that allow three different lighting effects.  The first is to have it completely open, the second it so have the day shade down that lets light in but still gives you privacy and the third is a night shade can be drawn that blocks out almost all the light and allows for complete privacy, day or night.  We had two window shades that broke and we just lived with them by rigging them to simply open and close.  Tim found a video on how to restring the shades to work again.  After buying the materials needed, cord and a large needle, I practiced by fixing the smaller shade from the bedroom and it was easy; thanks to the video.  Thank you RV with Tito (rvwithtito.com) for your video and instructions.  Last night, Tim and I restrung the large shade over our dining room table, I needed Tim to hold the shade together while I restrung it.  It only took about 30 minutes and now we have a working shade again.  It was a successful project that saved us a lot of money since we now do not need to replace both shades.  Good job Team Loomis!
