Brilliant, love the son working with you. 👍😂

@nexpro6985 Год назад

Here's a tip for you. When using a router to follow a straight edge for cutting channels use the rounded part of the router base. If you use the straight side and get even a slight twist it will kick out and ruin the channel. I learned this the hard way. Also there is less friction against the straight edge as the contact patch is tiny. Nice looking cupboards.

Everyone says to use 1x2 for making the cupboard frames, but I went to get some at B&Q yesterday and if 1x2 is inches that wood was much bigger, I bought 18x34mm which is technically 3/4x1/2 which I assume is going to be strong enough?

hi Neil, luv the videos, i'm doing a van at the mo as well, so finding yours very useful. i notice you have cupboard gas struts in your store, but how do you work out what strength you need??

@UrbanVanlife 3 года назад

That my friend is the mystery of life . I started off with 100nt ones and they where far far to powerful so I got 40nt ones all tho they don’t freely open the cupbords up they are perfect for what we need . The 100s where flying the doors open but the 40s work perfect for us . So I’d say if you have magnet catches go for 40s and if you have locking latches 50s . I guess it was trial and error mate Iv never used them before . Hope this helps . If you go to my amazon store the ones I got are in there the link will be on top righ of the channel or in any of the descriptions

Hello mate, I'm learning plenty watching your videos, thank you for sharing. One quick question who did your front seats also you mentioned u don't dabble with gas . Me neither. Would u recommend your gas fitter does he give u a sort of safety certificate? Please keep the videos coming all the advise is appreciated.

@UrbanVanlife 3 года назад

Regarding the front seats I’m unsure if you mean the swivels or the seat covers . The swivel bases we have videos on bud and the covers we just got off amazon for £50 I thought they where going to be a load of crap but there really good . I just need to fix a panel to the back of the passenger seat but that’s a future video . The gas tank and system we had fitted by autogasandy_lpg you’ll find him on Instagram . The install comes with no certificate mainly cost I have to connect my appliances up then get it all checked over and then get a gas certificate . And I’d recommend him yes TOTALY he’s a lovely guy and did a brilliant job . And lastly but more importantly thanks for the kind words mate it means a great deal to me .

not at all mate ours is different to his , ours it Italian light grey matt and i thing his is browner and glossy. but i bet we ain't the only people in the world that has bought it. i also bet we ain't the only people building vans, i also find comparison is the thief of joy no one else is building my van or the vans iv did in the past, not the vans that have won awards at shows nor the vans that have been in VW T4 & T5 magazines, but i guess its easy to comment on someones work, just remember its their own work no one else's, but thanks for watching mate
