  • Welcome back to our Channel and to the Fiat Ducato Build Series!🚐 in today's video Rosie and I Install our IKEA kitchen into the van! It was a super easy job and has transformed the space, making it much more useable going forward.
    The IKEA kitchen we went for was the Method Maximera, 37cm depth, rather than the conventional 60cm depth, this has given us back some much needed living room and also provides us with a kitchen big enough to house all of our stuff! 😍

    Now that that's done, it's onto the sofa and the over heads, this van build is so close to being done I can almost taste it!👀✌🏻
    The camper is really starting to take shape and we've got so much progress to update you guys on! As always thanks for sticking with us and watching the episodes, feel free to leave us any comments or questions you may have👀
    If your new here, we are Naz & Rosie and are currently turning a 2011 Fiat Ducato into our very own tiny home on wheels, one step at a time, doing it all ourselves😝 if this is your first video of ours, be sure to go back watch the build series to see how we've got to where we are today!🙌

    Wales is absolutely stunning, my mother in law lives in Swansea so I spent a fair bit of time in SW and mid Wales, I like to do a spot of gold panning when I get the time 👍

    Hi Naz & Rosie, we're currently converting a crafter and your videos have been great to watch for inspiration....loving the kitchen worktop hack and will be definitely pinching that as we're currently fitting our IKEA kitchen this week (same one!) so trip to wonky Wickes tomorrow! What locks are you using on your cabinets to stop them flying open? Thanks in advance Brian & Anna ;)

    • @CoupleWithACamper
      @CoupleWithACamper  6 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for your support both! Glad that our videos have been of some use for you guys! If we can be of any help then reach out to us via DM on insta ( same name as on YT), the IKEA kitchen has worked out great! Regarding the locks we just used magnet stick on locks which have worked great so far! Drop me a DM and I'll send you the link :) hope you guys stick around to watch the rest of the build, van tour and Europe series!

    It’s very pretty and functional. My only concerns are…
    - if the usb faucet was on the other side closest to the door, you could reach water from outside as well and may need that when cooking outside.
    -The other concern is not being able to get to the front seats quickly and stealthily. You also won’t be able to turn your van seats around for seating. Could it fit lengthwise along the van wall where the door slides open?

    Great work guys your build is coming along nicely.
    Quick question do you have a link for your work top 😊

    • @CoupleWithACamper
      @CoupleWithACamper  2 місяці тому +1

      It's from Wickes mate, handmade, it's just a timber board :)!

    @dirtydogsanddiesel 4 місяці тому +2

    Nice job. Im on my third build. Previously i made my own cabinets but like you said they never have that higher quality finish. Which model kitchen unit did you go for? Subbed

    • @CoupleWithACamper
      @CoupleWithACamper  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks mate! We used the slimline method Maximera units from IKEA, their sill going strong! Thanks for the sub mate

    Hi what catches do you use on the kitchen doors to stop them opening? Thanks.

  • @ads_213
    @ads_213 5 місяців тому

    Looks great! How is the board working out as a worktop? I'm using the same units and tempted to do the same as you, just worried with it being a softwood it will dent and scratch easily?
    Cheers, Adam

    • @CoupleWithACamper
      @CoupleWithACamper  5 місяців тому

      It's been fab! We just took extra time to stain and seal it properly with multiple coats, defo saves weight and looks good too :)

    Hi guys, can you tell me how you fixed the tap to the worktop? Thank you. Michael

    • @CoupleWithACamper
      @CoupleWithACamper  2 місяці тому

      It's just friction fit with the tube, we could have fashioned a holder but it works just 'floating'

    How did you attach the sink to the worktop to its stay in place while you are driving 😊?

    • @CoupleWithACamper
      @CoupleWithACamper  2 місяці тому

      We glued it down, no issues on our four month roadtrip

  • @DunkfaeOotnAbootWiUs

    How did you get the wee worktop to fit back into the sink space without falling thru lol 😂 ..serious question though

    • @CoupleWithACamper
      @CoupleWithACamper  2 місяці тому +1

      We cut to the guidelines of the sink, so the outer lip catches on the work top and it just rests in place :)

      Amazing mate hope that works out for you! These containers have been amazing on our four month trip, doesn't give water any taste either! Best of luck to you mate!
