What is the purpose for putting compost and topsoil on top of cardboard?
@MotoringHome
@MotoringHome 9 месяцев назад
Cardboard is a good weed barrier until it biodegrades after a few months. Helps kill of most weeds that are rooted in and gives plants you want a chance to establish themselves.

I like that copper bowl and brass tap. Good layout too. I'd be cautious about the load weight though in a Vito. You have a solid wooden ceiling, heavier MDF cabinets, ceramic tiles, water, gas cylinder, porta potti before you add in as much as a mug & tea bag ! Best of luck with your new adventures!

Just wondered if all the recycled pallet wood you got was all the same width or did you plane it to the same width of the other pieces ?
@MotoringHome
@MotoringHome 2 года назад
Hey! It was all relatively the same thickness, within a few mm. The length and width varied. I used a planer to take off some of the roughness but didn't bother to sand it down any more than that, it's a fairly rustic finish. If I were to do it again I would use regular cladding though, this pallet wood is far to heavy in comparison and weight counts for a lot when you have a maximum vehicle weight allowance.
