Framing the bunk windows took a lot of thought but it turned out great and adds so much width for sleeping in a fixed bed van conversion.

I said Brian “overbuilds”. But the loom on the wiring is NOT “overdoing it”. Great choice! The build is really coming around and looks phenomenal!

@danieljuhl3524 Год назад

I need to know Heather's secret for painting overhead! I didn't see one drop of white paint on her head, face, or hoodie! I would be splattered all over! Van is looking great guys! Really coming together.

@LifeontheBlacktop Год назад

Cussing a lot 😂

@marlalamb-wilson1203 Год назад

It's really coming together nicely! To quote a former boss whose favorite phrase for a job well done, "That's slicker than snot on a doorknob!". 👍👍👍❤❤❤

@traceysmith311 Год назад

Love how it’s coming along! And I love the “wife unsupervised” videos! I get my best work done when hubby is GONE!

@dennythomas8887 Год назад

watching Brian running the wiring I noticed the fan flickering and I'm thinking, Bro what are doing! you never connect wires when their hot! then I realized it was the shadow of the trees blowing in the wind! lol. 🤣🤣😂😂

@johnlenart597 Год назад

I agree with Wayne. Protecting your hands, but your clothing should be old throwaways. Also safety glasses to protect your eyes, especially when painting overhead. These tips will work when building van no. 2. Lol. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋‍♂️

@davetheproudtexson4734 Год назад

You guys seems so happy since you are making videos because you want too. Not like you feel you have too. Great job ❤️❤️

@hhplymouth9473 Год назад

The van is looking really good. You both are doing a great job and will have something to be proud of.

@jeffrockel5176 Год назад

Looks good guys. As far as Brain over doing it, IF A JOB IS WORTH DOING IT IS WORTH DOING RIGHT. You will be very proud of what you have accomplished when it is done!

@philipmilks6793 Год назад

Next time use a small brush the paint the grooves before you roll it out it will make life a little bit easier hope you guys have a good Thanksgiving

@jake6618 Год назад

I hope you two turkeys have a great thanksgiving. Luv you guys, stay safe.

@LifeontheBlacktop Год назад

Happy Thanksgiving, Jake!

@delbertdean4737 Год назад

I built a van in the 80s I put paneling in it and only had to run a few wires I was hoping to be able to haul my bike and be able to camp y'all are doing a great job love it

@johnporter2508 Год назад

I would have been wearing the paint if I was painting the ceiling the van is looking good

@garygardner9677 Год назад

Wire nuts in a vehicle ?! 😳 Crimp connectors, shrink tubing, and weather pack connectors if you want to be able to disconnect them later. (Wire nuts don't handle vibration long term)

@lancegrambo3829 Год назад

He wasn’t using wire nuts. He was using Wago wire connectors. They crimp and lock

@whatsbruin59 Год назад

Awesome job looks Great When painting overhead wear some clear glasses so you don’t get paint in your eyes.

@sterlinggentry146 Год назад

@jimmydarrellward8106 Год назад

The vans looking good.

@Jarvisbiker Год назад

coming along. looking good - keep going its going to be great !!!

@craiggoodwin9704 Год назад

Brian and Heather, looks like you're making great progress. I'd say laugh as much as you can because there is probably going to be many downsides to get over. The problem with plumbing and wiring is that it does get covered over so you really can't see the effort that went into it. Love the way you sized wire Brian. Be careful about pinching wires. Best of luck! We're rooting for you. Happy Thanksgiving! Thanks for Sharing!

Happy Thanksgiving!

@roegiersmusic Год назад

P.S. when painting above your head, please put on a pair of safety glasses to avoid any paint drips to the peepers. Love your channel 🤘🏻😎🇺🇸

@DIK65 Год назад

I watched Chuck Cassidy on the tube tonight and for some reason I thought of you two. It's about insulation very boring but very interesting I was shocked about alot of it.👍

@HaXaW5150 Год назад

Hey! If you won $100 million, I agree you should finish the van. Give it to me and buy yourselves a bus! 🤔😁 LOL! To be honest with you after all the work y'all have done and will do. There's no way I'd let it go for a very long time. Y'all have done an awesome job. 👍👍

With painting and any finishes we are our own worst critic.

DAMMIT! 😂😂😂

@waynesiminski8268 Год назад

Painting is the worst. Surprised you wear latex gloves for your hands but wear that way over priced Harley sweatshirt for that messy task. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Coming along great tho guys.👍🏻

@LifeontheBlacktop Год назад

I bought it cheap from my friend Whit, it’s my designated ‘work’ hoodie 😃

@waynesiminski8268 Год назад

👍🏻 gotcha 😁

@cliftonwilder Год назад

Well Heather, are you sure you're not a contractor? Cus in those bloopers, you sure talk like one. Before I became a contractor I had to learn how to talk like that. 🤪
