    Just a small tip, its best to use some 'FastaFix Back boxes' on those electrical socket outlets. Cut the hole to the shape of a standard 2 gang box and simply push the FastaFix box in. Much safer as it will contain the 240 volt cables behind, plus it will keep Wood away from the electrics. 😎

    Apart from the ceiling your camper van is nearly finished looks very nice and has come together nicely

    I fitted a water bottle in a converted ambulance that now belongs to “Dotty Dora UK Explorer” & I cut a hole through the floor in the under sink cupboard to slot the bottles in so they can’t move. Just an idea. Nice build

    We have a matress from the same company, ours is only 125mm thick due to space constraints so they advised orthopaedic memory foam and it's soooo comfy. Enjoy your trip.

    Shaun you definitely need to fit back boxes for those sockets, the regulations demand it. Cavity wall boxes will just pop into your ply wall

  • @Richard_Barnes
    @Richard_Barnes Рік тому

    Looks great 👍🏻😄That mattress is really good. But for me, that socket near the sink would not be there cus no matter what I do, when around water and washing dishes it goes everywhere 😆Enjoy the holiday.

    Lisa from Delaware in the US. An idea if you're going to have fresh water and your dirty water in the same looking containers in the same storage space you may want to label the dirty water jug just be on the safe side. Also fresh water jugs or purified water come in 5 gal jugs as well and it still fit in your area they may be more beneficial for a long trip a cheaper in the long run.❤😊

    Top tip for levelling stuff on uneven ground.... Grab a Digital Angle guage buddy. The sort you'd use to set up a table saw or bandsaw, B and Q probably sell them.
    For the shelf you fitted, you would rest it on the plinth you measured from, set that as zero, then just rest it on your shelf and adjust til you find zero again 👍

    I'm just about to fit my curtain across the cab and have bought a plastic table-cloth (white background with coloured stars - 50p poundland) and a tension rod extension pole. The stars will fold over the top of the rod and I will stick it together with masking tape. It will probably last me, before tearing, about 6 months. I don't like dark interior, prefer light and bright ‼️👍😉

    Shaun, I would have used plasterboard back boxes for the sockets. They are less than £1 and it would be easier to straighten them up and remove them if necessary. Tidy job all round otherwise.
