I’ve watched lots of van conversions but, yours seems to be some what better well thought out and taking your time 👍❤

@sandragolk940 2 месяца назад

I have watched many, many van build videos and I have to say this one was by far the most satisfying to watch! You are SO meticulous in your work and your precision is amazing -- it speaks to my perfectionist heart! I want to do a van build and this gave me some great ideas!

Thank you so much ! I am happy if you can get some tips from this video ! Yes I did spend too much time in some details and not really useful stuff, but the most important is to enjoy the final result :) good luck for your project !

@feizalkhalid3735 2 месяца назад

why not use the original floor plan that you removed at the beginning. from the floor plan you can follow the existing measurements

@thomasd2302 2 месяца назад

I tried to but I failed, the original floor was to corrugated and I couldn’t make accurate measurements

There should be a separate channel for people with money, than those without. This may be his first build, but it's oblivious he is a professional builder.

@thomasd2302 2 месяца назад

Thank you for your message, but I did start from scratch with no skills, I am not professional at all and learnt all but myself thanks to different youtube channels ;)

@fedor7695 2 месяца назад

Preparation is the key! But it's not if you're an ADHD fella 😕 I learned how to do everything professionally but after the van was fully restored technically and visually (made the sprinter look and drive like new) there was little to no moral strength to finish my build. What I wanted to tell you is you can do it the right way even if it's your first try. Just learn from the best.

Obviously not a professional. Many mistakes were made in this build.

@@NoClocks.NoCalendarswho cares, for an amateur i think he did a good job and the result is more than sufficient. I would have chosen different colors but that is personal.

@Modesso 3 месяца назад

love the build! how long did it take to make it from 0?

@thomasd2302 2 месяца назад

Thanks mate ! It is hard to say because I haven’t worked full time on it. From the buy to the finish result it last 2 years, but I would say I worked seriously for around 1 year. I spent more time in thinking than making

Use WAY to much spind deadening. Only needs a small piece per panel as its quite heavy

So you claim to have built it without anyskills at all! Why are you telling me this? Is it that you want raise or congratulations? So what, you didn’t have any skills. I’m sure you gained loads from watching all those you tubers who have done the same. Well done, lots of praise and aren’t you clever? There you go! Now move on.
