Hi beautiful friends! Just wanted to say thank you for sending your lovely words to my grandma. She's had a rough go the last few months and this shoulder break was the cherry on top. Love her lots and appreciate your prayers and positivity XX
Bob, I'm so sorry your frustrated with the blog but know that the blog has been very educational for us. My husband and I are in our 50s and thinking of a van build because our children live in a different state so I have really enjoyed watching the process. You've been a really good sport. Sending well wishes to bec's grandma. Hope she recovers soon.
Thank you so much Haylie! I am so happy I got to spend the last few days with my grandma. She is such a big part of my life and I loved getting to take care of her for once!
You'll did great! Even in the mist of things and people at the depot. Bob it's ok. It's coming together. As a parent I think it's great the memories you're making. Missed you Bec. Prayers for grandmaw
That about Eamon being a master with the hand sawing is so true, that’d be impossible for me to make square enough cuts without a jig. Very impressive.
so sorry about your knee, Eamon :( i have some gnarly knee issues too, so i feel your pain. sending you and Bec’s grandma lots of good vibes for speedy recoveries!💜
Awww.. Bob's all vlogged out..😵 But Bob your doing a great job and keepin' it real, so keep up the good work! 😁💕 Hope you all have a better day tomorrow! Love the videos Eamon and Bec and finding them very helpful!! ! Just started watching the other day and my fav so far is.. '10 reasons NOT to live in a van or tiny home' or something like that.. It was soo perfect for where I'm at and I could so relate to everything!!!! The funny part was you all were being sarcastic and I didnt realizd that til the end and was afraid to watch at first because of the title.. But, my van roomie/partner made me... He was like, "let's just watch and see what they have to say.. So, yea so many things Bec said i could relate too! I mean that could have been me talking about the constant cleaning and and other annoying g thing that go on with this lifeste...Yeah, that was quite helpful just knowing I'm not alone.. The first video we watched was the one with Eamon on how the electricity and power, AC/DC works.. Yes, very good information that not everyone is talking about... So, that one was also very cool and helpful!! Def gonna watch it again to learn more and really get it..! Anyway, again.., really love the vlogs guys, so thank you so much for making them!! .. We don't feel so alone in our crazy lifestyle, or at least I don't. ... Sending you all llots of love and peace right now for better van days, work days and for your visits to Home Depot now and in the future..! 💖🤣
This van build vlog series, it's awesome! You're dunkin it! Will be sad when it ends....unless maybe Bob will enter vlog country and start a channel :)))
For tracing the shapes of the van put a pencil through one of the leftover pieces from the holesaw and run it along the surface like a wheel. It will still take a few passes of drawing and cutting but you will get a nice neat finish.
Everyone has one of those days when things are just weird. Bob is having one of those days. Sometimes you just want to get the job done as soon as possible. Bob, I feel your pain. Cheer up. You are making good progress on your build. Sending some good positivity your way. Bec I hope your grandma gets better. Sending love 💕 ❤️❤️❤️❤️.
I broke my shoulder last year. Very painful. A good 7 weeks of healing plus the physio exercises afterwards are soooo important to gain full range of movement back again.
Hi Bob:) We're building our van out right now too. We're going with a 4 foot countertop also. Tried to get the link for the sink but couldn't find it. What size is your sink? Thank you for taking us along on your build. We're behind you on the build so it is VERY helpful!!!
Hang in there Eamon and Bec. (And Bob. ...Eamon, your dad is great!) I really appreciate seeing your handiwork and all the logistics in action--plus the behind-the-scenes stuff. Stay cool.
My grandma has always been one of the most important people in my life so it was a no brainer for me to go spend some time with her. Thanks for your love Michele!
I've seen where persons use a sheet of cardboard to create a template for the van shape before they cut the walls or paneling around the van, since its a bit more flexible.
Without further ado is simple for us old folks! Ado means fuss. In other words right now, or immediately. You might also hear “much ado about nothing” which comes from Shakespeare. Hope this helps. ✌️
Will you post a list of all the supplies and prices when you finish please? I am trying to plan for my first van build, and I’m so excited! Great job on these videos they are the best I’ve ever seen!
haha That makes more sense now! I did wonder why you were fitting out a new van when your current one is so good and just had a new engine. That's really cool your Dad has embraced van life too and the freedom that comes with it :) Cheers and all the best to you all!
That's what I'm used to from Home Despot. However, you guys recovered quickly, as nobody's got time for negative peeps. OOH! Sorry to hear about Bec's Grandma's shoulder!
On your rounded corner template, you can place a flat washer on the wood/cardboard, draw in the center to trace against your rounded corner to transfer the shape
Are you guys going to put a silverware drawer above the fridge? Also not putting wood in the countertops up against the interior wall will make it cold they're in the van during the winter.
Much love to bec and her gma! I pray she heals quickly and take care of that knee buddy because getting old sucks and everything gets worse when your old. Trust me!!! Does your mom ever want to be part of the blog?
Eamon at 7:07 use cardboard first instead of final material. in smaller areas you can put a rubber band on a deck of cards and use that to trace your angles.
And that is why we always go to Lowes and not Home Depot, even though they both give us military discounts, the staff is head over heels better, friendlier, helpful and available every time we go. I would not have left until the problem was fixed satisfactorily. You can use cardboard to make the pattern of those curved van walls so you come out with a perfect pattern and cut board.
@Eamon&Bec : I have the same thing with my knee.. started in high school the ONE day I didn't stretch, that was 20 years ago... lol.. although I keep injuring it to the point, people now-a-days say I limp, which I do when the pain kicks in... I Have now learned to do Yoga each day and stretch out my legs so I don't injure it again. Actually what you said with your knee, I was told what it was when I was at University of Western Ontario (I am from Michigan). :)
Thanks for the idea Ida! I think it's brilliant! Going to share with the boys this afternoon :) And thank you for your encouragement re: daily vlogging! APPRECIATE YOU xx
Eamon. Thank you for being patient with your dad. Try to keep those “I knew it wouldn’t work” statements to yourself. As an old guy who helps their kids I know that would mean a lot to me.
I’m a little worried about Bobs posture.......I think you need to get him in a yoga class ASAP.....it’s made a huge difference for me and my posture was similar. Within 30 classes I saw my shoulders get back in their origami position , not under my ears and my curved back straight, I’m 2 inches taller.
Eamon & Bec you guys are fab, you make others days brighter despite the hassle of vlogging. Its time for a little good karma to come your way for all the sunshine you and your family give out. If you need to down tools and spend an afternoon with family or whatever is most important and unwind having fun and laugh then do so, we will be here to watch the next vlog
Eamon & Bec lol can you tell I'm a newbie ;) basically been "creepin & peepin" since Mexico ...which was amazingly exciting! Love the name if your company by the way!
For a moment I thought, what kind of freakin shape sink is there gonna be going in, after you finished I was ok 😀😀 time I find myself saying things I don't understand is after a cup of chai lol
btw, if you haven't installed the hinges, i've got a dozen black, Iron, NIPackage Barn hinges if your interested. I've had them for several years.....i'll send em to you guys for a 'spot of tea' ; )
per google: further a due - Without more work, ceremony, or fuss. For example, Without further ado they adjourned the meeting and went home, or And now, without more ado, here is our speaker of the day. This idiom has one of the few surviving uses of the noun ado, meaning “what is being done.” -- had to look it up :)
Have you considered a shallow drawer above the fridge? The drawer runners are available premade in sets as are drawer box pieces. Check out Ana-White.com or her channel here to learn more. Hyping can never have too many drawers, and a shallow one could be great for utensils, etc AND easy to install!
1question , on the bottoms of your hanging cabinets . Did you screw them in or nail them ,, I seen that screw seter you used for the bed did you use that for the hanging cabinets too ?
Get some rest, distress and get away from the build. PS: Please check out The Indie Projects latest video in reference to leaking potential along that Black strip near the bottom of the van!!!!!😑😔😕😞 Easy fix with silicon on the clips , which tend to leak and can mess up your insulation!!!!!!😡 FYI
Disgusting customer service, perhaps she missed her morning pills lol. Furbabies make it all better. Gosh, the joys & dramas of a build. At least this is real & honest. Ps Bob, love the 🎶 music too 😊
Hi beautiful friends! Just wanted to say thank you for sending your lovely words to my grandma. She's had a rough go the last few months and this shoulder break was the cherry on top. Love her lots and appreciate your prayers and positivity XX

She will really appreciate your prayers. Thank you so much !!
That about Eamon being a master with the hand sawing is so true, that’d be impossible for me to make square enough cuts without a jig. Very impressive.
I would have asked for a manager at the HD so fast...and....Bob, don't leave usssss!
Go Bob!! Your fans are cheering you on!!
That tip about tracing the outline with the wood piece and pencil is gold
Van looks fantastic and Bob is an awesome Dad!
“But it does exist in the world” 🤣Thank you for the best laugh of the day Bob!!!
Bob is the best!!! More Bob please!!!!!!
Lots more Bob to come!
so sorry about your knee, Eamon :( i have some gnarly knee issues too, so i feel your pain. sending you and Bec’s grandma lots of good vibes for speedy recoveries!💜

Great channel, love seeing Bob's van build. He's a natural vlogger.
This van build vlog series, it's awesome! You're dunkin it!
Will be sad when it ends....unless maybe Bob will enter vlog country and start a channel :)))
We'll see if we can convince Bob to take you along for his vanlife journey!
"Safety first, guys", he said, putting on goggles while wearing Birkenstock.
Got it.
Hahah yeah, Eamon can be a bit of a nutter!
I’ve been loving Eamon & Bec so much I’ve been binging old videos!
Productful day.. that cracked me up... Eamon was quite funny today! And the sink went so well! Grams feel better soon!
When Eamon was talking to the dogs he sounded exactly like Jerry Seinfeld 😂
That open faced pita bowl looks delightful.
You guys are crushing this build and that fridge is HUGE! Really enjoy the daily vlogs. Much love. 🙂❤✌🖖
For tracing the shapes of the van put a pencil through one of the leftover pieces from the holesaw and run it along the surface like a wheel. It will still take a few passes of drawing and cutting but you will get a nice neat finish.
Aww, I hope Bec's grandmother has an easy and peaceful recovery! Sending love and positivity your way.
Thank you so much Chelsea! That really means a lot XX
Loving the positive content. Even when things don't totally go to plan at the depot. And sorry Bob but we gotta keep watching!
Dad in Home Depot, hilarious :) :) Loving the vlogs!
Hahah Bob is taking over the vlog!!
Everyone has one of those days when things are just weird. Bob is having one of those days. Sometimes you just want to get the job done as soon as possible. Bob, I feel your pain. Cheer up. You are making good progress on your build. Sending some good positivity your way. Bec I hope your grandma gets better. Sending love 💕 ❤️❤️❤️❤️.
Thank you Jessica. I will let my granny know you send your well wishes XXX
So sorry about Bec’s grandma! Much love during her recovery.
Thank you so much Marie! I am going to pass along your love to my granny!! XX
Best well wishes to Bec's Grand mother. Another fun video. Thanks!
Thank you Leann. My granny really appreciates all the love!
I broke my shoulder last year. Very painful. A good 7 weeks of healing plus the physio exercises afterwards are soooo important to gain full range of movement back again.

Thank you so much for your words of encouragement!! We're really enjoying sharing our journey with you XX
Sending good vibes for a better day tomorrow~Love to Bec helping out with Grandma, what a sweetheart~xoxo
My grandma has always been one of the most important people in my life so it was a no brainer for me to go spend some time with her. Thanks for your love Michele!
Much love love to Grandma and hope she's feeling better! E&B
It's available in the world. Love it! I would say that too.
Hahaha oh Bob! Always cracking us up!!
I've seen where persons use a sheet of cardboard to create a template for the van shape before they cut the walls or paneling around the van, since its a bit more flexible.
You guys are some talented people and Woodworking and videos
Awe, thank you!! Appreciate your kindness!
Bob is awesome!
Eamon, love your humor.
Glad you appreciate his humour as much as I do!
Without further ado is simple for us old folks! Ado means fuss. In other words right now, or immediately. You might also hear “much ado about nothing” which comes from Shakespeare. Hope this helps. ✌️
Will you post a list of all the supplies and prices when you finish please? I am trying to plan for my first van build, and I’m so excited! Great job on these videos they are the best I’ve ever seen!
Wow, what a compliment!! Thank you Cole!! And yes, we'll be sure to keep track of all expenses and share that with you when we're done!
Eamon & Bec thank you so much!! You are my biggest inspiration to start van life, and I can’t wait to get traveling!
Big thumbs up on the daily vlogs even tho I'm sure it's tough! Keep rockin 👍✌️
Thanks Matae! Always encouraging to receive kind messages!! We're pushing through the hump :)
Loving the daily vids👏👌 You guys are amazing😍👏💙
Hi, for ‘scribing’ the kitchen partition to the vans curved wall a largish compass is a handy tool 🤓🤓.
You're lucky to have such a talented Dad that can help you out so much :)
Hey Nick! Totally agree! But this build is actually for Bob so we're technically helping him out ;)
haha That makes more sense now! I did wonder why you were fitting out a new van when your current one is so good and just had a new engine. That's really cool your Dad has embraced van life too and the freedom that comes with it :) Cheers and all the best to you all!
why is bob the best?
I love that Bob likes Classical music!! Shout out to Bec's Grandma!
Awe thanks friend! My granny needs some love and encouragement right now and I will be sure to share your words with her :)
Missing Bec, too. She's wonderful! Father and son, doing great!
Thank you Catherine! That's very sweet of you to say :) XX
That's what I'm used to from Home Despot. However, you guys recovered quickly, as nobody's got time for negative peeps. OOH! Sorry to hear about Bec's Grandma's shoulder!
Sending all the positive healing vibes to grandma Bec and to your hurting knee Eamon!
That is very sweet of you. I am going to pass along all of these kind thoughts to my granny! She will be so touched XX
Lol I love your dad when he laughs !!!
On your rounded corner template, you can place a flat washer on the wood/cardboard, draw in the center to trace against your rounded corner to transfer the shape
Are you guys going to put a silverware drawer above the fridge? Also not putting wood in the countertops up against the interior wall will make it cold they're in the van during the winter.
We actually need that space above the fridge to install our stove top. We're going to have the stove fixed just like our van conversion :)
Hope your granny is feeling better soon. I I know she is probably feeling better just seeing you
Awe, thank you! Yes she's been in good spirits so that makes us all feel better XX
Can't be awesome every day, looking forward to tomorrow's episode 🤙
Much love to bec and her gma! I pray she heals quickly and take care of that knee buddy because getting old sucks and everything gets worse when your old. Trust me!!! Does your mom ever want to be part of the blog?
Productful productive day.
The hardest times in our life become the most memorable.. Love to you all and thanks for the laughs too :-)
Eamon at 7:07 use cardboard first instead of final material. in smaller areas you can put a rubber band on a deck of cards and use that to trace your angles.
I’m in rock hill sc close to Charlotte nc and it’s so hot, we are in shorts and tanks! The weather difference is so crazy!
Cardboard template for tuff angles. So what if you mess up a few dozen pieces. Get it right on the finish product.
And that is why we always go to Lowes and not Home Depot, even though they both give us military discounts, the staff is head over heels better, friendlier, helpful and available every time we go. I would not have left until the problem was fixed satisfactorily. You can use cardboard to make the pattern of those curved van walls so you come out with a perfect pattern and cut board.
I liked the music choices man!
Thanks bud!
Productful hahaha it's productive! love the song tho
@Eamon&Bec : I have the same thing with my knee.. started in high school the ONE day I didn't stretch, that was 20 years ago... lol.. although I keep injuring it to the point, people now-a-days say I limp, which I do when the pain kicks in... I Have now learned to do Yoga each day and stretch out my legs so I don't injure it again. Actually what you said with your knee, I was told what it was when I was at University of Western Ontario (I am from Michigan). :)
You should install a cutting board(?) Above the frigde for some additional space when cooking :) i really enjoy these daily vlogs, keep em' coming!
Thanks for the idea Ida! I think it's brilliant! Going to share with the boys this afternoon :) And thank you for your encouragement re: daily vlogging! APPRECIATE YOU xx
Woah that lady at the depot must have been having a rough day.... But props for keeping your cool 👍
That's what we chalked it up to... everyone has bad days!
SO FAR LOOKING VERY GOOD GUYS JOB WELLDONE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK IAM WATCHING OK BOB AND EAMON
Thank you so much Spiro!! Appreciate your encouragement!
That HD experience had me like 😡 Awful! But you guys had a great attitude about it. Loving these vlogs! Sending love to Bec’s Grandma!
Amazing editing. I noticed that the preview clip you showed on your last vlog pertaining to next episode (this) did not happen.
Oh really?! What was that? Sometimes our edits cut things that we maybe featured from the day before lol... woops!!
WOW that Blake guy was gorgeous!!!
Yeah, he's alright ;)
Awesome video! Sounds like it had been just ‘one of those days!’ Lol. Seem to be having one myself! Hope the knee gets better soon! Lou 😊xxx
Definitely just ONE OF THOSE DAYS!!
Eamon. Thank you for being patient with your dad. Try to keep those “I knew it wouldn’t work” statements to yourself. As an old guy who helps their kids I know that would mean a lot to me.
Has anyone ever seen Eamon and Sarah Silverman in the same room at the same time? Hmmmmm............
Hahah you think they look alike?!
Same manerisms and facial expressions as well.......
use a compass to scribe the cut line to make an accurate cut
There is NO WAY I would pay for that board, next time talk to the manager....
Sorry, we didn't clarify in the video... we did NOT buy that board!
DIY the barn door style so many ideas on Pinterest!
I’m a little worried about Bobs posture.......I think you need to get him in a yoga class ASAP.....it’s made a huge difference for me and my posture was similar. Within 30 classes I saw my shoulders get back in their origami position , not under my ears and my curved back straight, I’m 2 inches taller.
I think you guys are awesome. Love your dad man.... Listen to him more bro... Nudge nudge.
But it hurts my brain to watch Eamon work. ☹️😁😜😂
Hey guys me an my wife are going to build are own van soon an we where wondering how much was bobs fridge
Dont lose hope! Keep your chin up and just focus on one thing at a time and then cross it off the list. You can do this :)
Thank you friend!! Appreciate your encouragement more than you know :)
Eamon & Bec you guys are fab, you make others days brighter despite the hassle of vlogging. Its time for a little good karma to come your way for all the sunshine you and your family give out. If you need to down tools and spend an afternoon with family or whatever is most important and unwind having fun and laugh then do so, we will be here to watch the next vlog
Oh! Do you think you can let us know the cost once done??
Thanks!
Hi Vickie! For sure! We will share the conversion cost just as we did the last time :)
Eamon & Bec lol can you tell I'm a newbie ;) basically been "creepin & peepin" since Mexico ...which was amazingly exciting!
Love the name if your company by the way!
For a moment I thought, what kind of freakin shape sink is there gonna be going in, after you finished I was ok 😀😀 time I find myself saying things I don't understand is after a cup of chai lol

Hey, thanks for that! Appreciate your kind words :)
How about 409K now, one year later!
Bob for the vlog and Dad on a regular basis?
Bob listens to Mozart...classic! 😁
Good afternoon Eamon and Bob!
Best thoughts for Bec's grandma
Thank you so much Carlos. Really appreciate your kind words of encouragement for my granny XX
Have you considered a shallow drawer above the fridge? The drawer runners are available premade in sets as are drawer box pieces. Check out Ana-White.com or her channel here to learn more. Hyping can never have too many drawers, and a shallow one could be great for utensils, etc AND easy to install!
your pops sounds exactly like Jeff Bridges!
Your knee will stabilize with a regular walking schedule.. been there, done that.
Damn who’s that cutie in the bright blue kicks on the court ♥️
1question , on the bottoms of your hanging cabinets . Did you screw them in or nail them ,, I seen that screw seter you used for the bed did you use that for the hanging cabinets too ?
Exercise that knee Eamon! (Im talking good PT) Warmest hug to your Grandma Bec!
Outstanding vlog. Bob needs a hug. I'd be calling corporate on them home depot asshats...... Love my daily dose tho
You guys are a hoot, may i ask how deep did you make the cabinets ? kitchen and uppers ? Thx Oh yea whats the latest on Bob?
The dogs in the passenger seat. Hilarious. The mishaps of the day. Funny if it's not happening to you. Sorry about that.
Omg #baddayatHD vans lookomg good. Prayers for grandma
Get some rest, distress and get away from the build.
PS: Please check out The Indie Projects latest video in reference to leaking potential along that Black strip near the bottom of the van!!!!!😑😔😕😞 Easy fix with silicon on the clips , which tend to leak and can mess up your insulation!!!!!!😡 FYI
Disgusting customer service, perhaps she missed her morning pills lol. Furbabies make it all better. Gosh, the joys & dramas of a build. At least this is real & honest. Ps Bob, love the 🎶 music too 😊
