@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

Sooo close, but not it!

@mariadurkin5478 2 года назад

52?

@adventure_onthedaily9851 2 года назад

i'm gonna say 38 trips to Bunnings. Maybe that's too conservative, lol. I've been 3 times and I haven't really even started!

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

I’ll give you a hint! It’s higher 😂

@adventure_onthedaily9851 2 года назад

@@saltyvanventures ha! Ok, next guess is what it will probably take me (if I'm lucky) 55 trips!

@adventure_onthedaily9851 2 года назад

Oh hang on 😂 I've been 3 times in 1 weekend.. been thinking the build might take a year.. I could be out by a mile lol

Pretty happy with how much we spent. Didn’t go over budget which is always nice

To all you Americans out there who dont believe that Australia is the most expensive place on Earth, here is your proof.

@christate590 2 года назад

33 times to the hardware store???

@filippopagani5986 2 года назад

Great video! I loved the van build, I’m gonna say at least 80 trips to Bunnings

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

Not quite 80!

Hey guys awesome video!! I've been doing up my own 2005 Transit, and it's almost finished!! Huge thanks to you as I've come from a place of very little prior knowledge and managed to create something I'm quite proud of all with the help of many rewatches of your videos. Really glad to hear you'll be doing consulting, certainly a service I would have used if I was just starting out. Thanks again for everything you've shared!

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

That’s amazing! So glad to have been able to help you out! Good luck with the rest of your conversion!

@gasdorficmuncher9943 Год назад

i would just sleep on a cot , what you have done is alot work and money added stress, alot weight god !

@saltyvanventures Год назад

thats the difference between surviving and living

@IsraelitesUnited 2 года назад

What paint did you use on the plywood to get the white finish you have, thanks

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

We uses dulux wash and wear interior semi gloss paint.

@trinbogo Год назад

How is the electrical so cheap? Those batteries alone are like 1k each?

@saltyvanventures Год назад

that specific battery was $400 on presale

Is there a reason you opted for no toilet?

@saltyvanventures 6 месяцев назад

We do have a toilet 😀

@MichaelWilliams-ro9bm Год назад

No AC???

@saltyvanventures Год назад

Why do you need AC?

@alpinebro619 2 года назад

Hah this sounds like a budget build compared to what I’m running into! Jeez! Good price out but dang my wallet hates me. My electrical alone was $8k 😳

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

its amazing how much you can save if you spend smart!

@Vlaid65 2 года назад

If it's anything like my experience, 50+ visits to Bunnings. I'm at more than that atm, but started with no experience, tools, or materials. And yep to screws in the thousands being legit.

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

I’ll give you a hint. It’s above 50! And that was me trying to buy in bulk as much as possible haha!

@bobw9297 2 года назад

Taking your time and doing it right will pay it forward for years to come , as far as the money Australia and Canada are the same ish We just finished our more basic week ender van and it cost $10,000 CDN p;us the van.....eh

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

Very true. Do It right the first time round and avoid re doing it later down the track! You can save a lot of money if you really want too. Being smart with what you buy and what brands you need for reliability and then saving money when you don’t need to buy top of the line!

@kjs1069 2 года назад

Hey man well done. Your van resale would be worth double you spent. Very inspiring brutha. Cheers from Melbourne. 77 times. It would cool to see the shower work man. Such unique design.

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

That’s mate. Appreciate it

@jables8901 2 года назад

thanks guys, super inspiring stuff!! Are you a carpenter Marcel? your woodworking skills were really impressive!

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

I get that question a lot! No not a carpenter, I’m an engineer actually. But I’ve always loved working with wood and building things

@brianmcgrevey9832 2 года назад

Well done! Good luck with van. Enjoyed your blogs. B

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

Thank you! 🙂

@andrewjeffrey2160 2 года назад

Let’s go with 60 (my van build is probably more than that already). Great idea to offer van consulting. You explain things so well

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

Very close. Ill give you a hint its between 52 and 60

@juanitadaniels7511 2 года назад

35 trips to Bunnings, lol.. Thank you, it's great to have an idea on costs..

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

I wish it was only 35 trips to Bunnings! Maybe I should have also factored in fuel driving to and from Bunnings over and over 😂

@BradandJaz 2 года назад

Awesome breakdown guys definitely helpful to see those little extra things you don’t think of like getting the cushions sewed etc. definitely keeping this it in mind as mid build at the moment.

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

Yes there an so many little costs that eventually add up quite a bit you wouldn’t think about until you actually start converting it!

@allegrosotto2126 2 года назад

Congratulations on a great build. Best wishes for the new venture.

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

Thank you! Looking forward to helping more people out there to chase the van life and joys of creating theirs own home on wheels

@woollywoolwoolz 2 года назад

I spotted a lot of Bunnings receipts in there 😂😂😂

@saltyvanventures 2 года назад

Yes nearly exclusively Bunnings! But how many!

@malerei9270 2 года назад

49 trips to Bunnings. I love the sharing. Such a gorgeous build guys.

Closest answer so far! And thank you!

@@saltyvanventures my transit arrives in march 23. I hope to have all the shit I need before then, keeping the bunnings trips down to a dozen. Those snags prices will add up!
