I'm all about extra storage and easy organization and build! This was awesome. That was almost like wasted space. And you did it will still more than enough head room. Very nice!
its a total waste of space and i dont know why van makers dont use it for better use , i suppose it gives us some thing to do , thanks for watching guys hope your both good
We all spend money on scribes. And still spend 2 days 5 hours and 45 minutes getting it right . Then we throw away the templates 😆 when really we could offer to others and save the world from a lot of cursing and swearing 😉 We took out the head panel and fitted the shelf on the bench . Made it easier than working overhead. And while it was out we stuck a couple of sheep's overcoats against the roof for insulation. The refitted the panel. 😎
the funny thing is , i sad im going to keep this template for some one who needs it , then i cut it up for a panel on the door with out thinking , guess im in the didnt think club there mate , but at least we understand the hell people go trough when they do the job
@@UrbanVanlife I know the feeling the same with my podcast, find topics that may be of interest to my viewers/listeners and edit and upload them on a regular schedule. I just hate when I miss a day b/c of lack of good topics.
@@UrbanVanlife I think the windows you choose are brilliant. Look really cool . We fitted dometic s4. Plastic they a good for what they are . But yours suit the Urban Explorer theme 😎
@@UrbanVanlife ive done it after throwing a wobbler a few times lol, also cut the facia that wasnt to bad today il carpet shelf then try the facia board see how it looks, oh the corner jig you used came from amazon looks a nice bit of tackle.
Mine fell out. Shoddy job by cowboys. It was only screwed into the headliner. 🤦♂️. Could have landed on our heads whilst on motorway. So will have a go at refitting like you have done. 🙌
Yo Neil! You two didn't very fine job of that installment. I've got to get me one one those scribes. Eva is coming along nicely! Have a wonderful day guys!!!
Easiest way I've seen up to now looking very good bu I agree you need s table saw now especially when your almost at fitting out. Class video keep em coming an remember, keep classy ha
Watching that, l would say you could start a great new business making ironing boards. Or fabric covered chopping boards. Or fabric chess boards. Or fabr...I'll get my coat.
Keep up the good wirk . Did u have any fights yet lol! Wen its time for furniture id highly recommend modesty blocks to put together ( the 4 hole ones ) they are brilliant rather than using pocket holes ✋
great idea mate , iv been looking at the pocket hole jig and man there not cheap them things for a drill bit , i mean come on , but i like your idea better so thanks for that dude much appreciated
@@UrbanVanlife just finished my build on 2016 relay and there a solid fixing m8.u can get 100 for £10( needed 150 for my build) i got in grey color .shop around
Mate that little pencil gets used a lot and it’s never failed my friend . Don’t forget it’s not the lead in the pencil that counts it’s what you Wright with it
@@UrbanVanlife I have finally found a genuinely funny person on RU-vid that likes to have a laugh and a joke. Keep up the great work with the van build videos.
Did I see that correctly. Looked like you scribed the shape for the board at the top of the edge baton and then screwed it to the underside? Was it the same shape once the depth of the edge baton was taken into account Neil?
Hi ya, the cupboard is holding up great and permanently filled, we store a lot of things in there to be fair, jackets, games, some of the girls things and some other bits and bobs.
Nice job on the shelf ... I'm just about to do the same on my crafter project. Just wondering, did you find a good solution for filling the gap between the ceiling 'liner' above the cab and the sides of the van? It look s a tricky shape to get ply to fit but I've not tried yet so any suggestions much appreciated. :)
Ok Neil, watched the tutorial again. So, if my understanding is correct, you have 6 pieces of wood 3 outside (resting on the lip that runs down the 2 sides and front) and 3 inside that screw into the 3 outside ones. Is that correct?? 😉😁
the inner parts are screwed to the shelf its self and then out outer part goes on the other side of the roof lining then screw them both in to each other making a sandwich effect wood lining wood and tighten them up mate , hope you understand that im not the best at explaining sorry , basically yes you got it in what you said , its a weird one to explain
@@UrbanVanlife No, got you perfect mate! Thanks for sharing all your tutorials, it's really appreciated immensly man. I am converting a VW LT 46 here in Ireland. I am South African and live here now - last 16 years. So, 16 shite winters, oh man. Just a quick word in saying, meeting you is all my pleasure. Been following Greg aswell and between you, I am truly blessed with researching the "know how" that includes a very high standard van conversion! Thank you once again mate and really hope to meet you and yours someday! 💯👌
