Too late now but you should cover glass from grinder sparks. Check out your windows. Looking forward to the build.

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

Thanks for the tip! We were really careful to hoover around them everyday but we do need to double check the glass itself now the grinding is all done :) thank you, hope you enjoy watching! A

@vanlifeembracingdiversity5431 2 года назад

Oh my seeing tearing the floor stressed me out. Hope it turned out well.

@danrumble211 2 года назад

Hi , I'm looking for a suitable vehicle for a conversion but concerned about having enough height, what's the internal height of this van after you stripped the floor? Or once the new floor and ceiling are in? Thanks

@thelostroadie 3 года назад

Great bus. Do you need your C1 licence to drive it though?

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

Hi Ross, thank you! Yes you do need a C1 license because it weighs over 3.5 tons, Tobys looking into getting one asap :)

@hollandduck79 3 года назад

Hello . i am new here on your channel. this is my first video here. I am curious about your channel how it will continue. with kind regards Hollandduck from the Netherlands

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

Hi there-to you and the Netherlands! It will continue following the journey of our van build-so next will be rust busting, then installing the gas and water tanks, and then floor and building up from there. And in the end us on our travels in the bus! We hope you enjoy watching :) all the best, A :)

@MaxSophieinaVan 3 года назад

YESSSSSS guys! We do not miss ripping up flooring but you smashed it! Great first video - you two are adorable (apart from the sneezing, that was terrifying)... Can't wait for the next one! x

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

ahah, agreed!! thanks guys-we look forward to your next one too! x

@WanderbusAdventures 3 года назад

Well done on getting the floor out. That’s one heck of a task. Also was a that a sneeze or some sort of possession? I can’t believe you found that 5 mins away. Top job. 🚐🚐🚐

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

Thanks you guys! aha, a bit of both i think. Yes it was meant to be for sure :)

@gloadv 2 года назад

you def need the iglhaut 4x4 conversion for your bus :-D

@ntmdisco 2 года назад

Did that bus come from worcesterhire county council? because we got rid of a few of them a couple of years ago and this one has the exact same colours and markings as the one we still have left

@Professionalmoochers 3 года назад

That’s a great globetrotter! Hopefully you’ll get to explore soon. We’ve subscribed as we wanna see more 🤩

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

Yes we really hope so too! We can't wait to go literally everywhere in it aha :) Thanks so much for subscribing-we hope you enjoy! A x

Sorry, can't be doing with the musak

@FromMetayou Год назад

A plasma cutter may have helped with cutting that floor up

@The_Mitchells 3 года назад

You’ve done so well to find a barn! And incredible that you found your bus five minutes away - it was meant to be :)

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

Yes it really was!! Must have been meant to be :) hope you guys enjoyed the video and yours is still going well !

@clivemillington8452 3 года назад

Hi guys just subscribed and noticed the unistrut that you can keep for roof for a rack system and back ladder system ! Woopee what a saving

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

Hi Clive! first of all-thanks so much for subscribing and thanks for the comment :) i just had to google a unistrut system aha and i think we've taken it out but in terms of saving i'm not sure we will-we're getting a custom roof rack made but still good to know so thanks for pointing it out :) A

Hi new friend here from Scotland

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

Hi to you and Scotland!! We hope you enjoy the video as well as more to come :) Scotland is our first destination once the van is done-Toby's family moved there a couple of years ago :) A

@michaelbratton3319 3 года назад

At what point did you realise your Van would be 4inches higher once the floor was out?

@ourroaminghome8943 3 года назад

i"m not sure what you mean, but we definitely got closer to the top of the barn once the floor/weight was out! And once our new floor is in, we'll have gained 7-8cm in standing height :)
