Yeah... the balancing thing can be kinda tricky..... I always get it wrong coming out, and then figure it out to go back in....  :D

How could you say no to that? What a classic!  They don't make them like this any more. It would be worth the effort just to take a few camping trips in this thing.  I would tell him that I will work on it if he would let me borrow it for a few weekends.  Hope you get it going.
