    The wee unit is fine, it will do what you and Charlie need, I will suggest you look on ebay & Amazon, for Chinese diesal heaters, 8 kW will be more than you need to heat a unit that size, they are under £100, and only run on 12 volt, they use a few amps on start up ( not many amps at all) Once going they use nothing electric wise, you can run them on on a leisure battery, and charge it by battery charger, or buy a suitable powe supply I use a 2 kW one in my campervan and in minus 8 degrees I used 200 mil of diesel over night, just build a water proof box outside the unit, drill two holes for the pipes through the wall, for air intake, and exhaust pipe, you can always fill them in again if you vacate the unit, unlike space heaters there's no fuel being burned in the unit so you don't smell it, and the exhaust, and carbon monoxide are realised out side, they are same as the ones used to heat trucks, I have been using one now for 4 years, all my camper van mates also use them, many people are now using them in homes, as a cheaper alternative, there's loads of Chinese diesel heater groups on face book that offer instant advice on them, they come with a wall control panel and a remote fob. And also great for spraying too, all you get is hot air no smell, once they have gone through the start up procedure they use very little electric or diesel.so easy to install too, anyone can install one. I installed my own with no knowledge at all you can also find info all over you tube on them.

    Please invest in an additional microphone for Charlie. When he’s away from the camera, it’s really hard to hear what he’s saying. Unit is big enough for now, but with that low RSJ across it you will struggle to be able to get a full size lift in there. Maybe something like a low jack would suffice for now. Good luck with the venture.

The wheels take 30seconds-1min max and then it allows you to roll forward and back, your ground looks nice and flat so shouldn't have any problems with the ramp rocking, I had 4x4 and everything on them, cracking for servicing, brakes etc, saves the old back and knees.

      Ive got a few little tweaks to make and it will be getting a full alignment.
      Until we get the engine swao and turbo done we wont be on the track, i dont think the 1ltr Auto will cut it. 😂

    Looking good.
    Did you ceramic coat the wheels?
    The infinity wax kit will make keeping those white wheels white, a lot easier.
    Could you dangle a block n tackle from those purling beams? You get ones that attach to beams or you could span between 2 of them. Could help with some jobs, if there's headroom.

    • @HomeBuilt
      @HomeBuilt  Рік тому +1

      Ive coated them with QDX for now, im trying to get infinity wax to send us their new ceramic coating to do a video on 😂
      I probably could use the beam but we have an engine crane so most likely wont, might be a bit low anyway.
      Thanks again for supporting the channel.

      Would you be interested in a paying job?
      If so, how would I contact you? It's a CLK that needs a bit of TLC (or new wheel hubs etc. Speed sensor issues).
