Ah a winning couple!!
TEAM I MENT 'TEAM'
!!!
You meant to say they aren't a couple? shes a pretty girl Mel! :P Nice work with the conversion
Yes I was thinking something along these lines too!
Yes, that was a super tutorial for a woman to learn from. It looks great in your Van.
Thank you for taking the time to comment I really appreciate your feedback makes all the hard work worthwhile good luck with your build oh and happy new year let’s hope things get better soon 👍😊👍
I love that you all are working together. So many of us want to build our vans, but need this type of help. AWESOME SAUCE!
Thank you 😊
Rebecca is doing great especially with the jigsaw. But Mel you have the patience of a saint!
Thank you 🙏
Your humour was “sinking” to new depths this time - I’ll see myself out.... 🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant 👍😂👍
Really nice job. That sink is really compact and maximises the space. Good lessons for campervan builders.
Thank you buddy that’s really appreciated
Your van is looking lovely!
A random suggestion. If you cut your sink cover in half, on the long side. Or even ⅔ / ⅓ you can still have sink access to run your tap, but create a bit more bench space for prep.
…Oops! Just realised this vid is 3 yr old! Oh well. It’s still lovely, and dividing the sink is still handy. So i’ll leave the comment as is 😂
thats a great sink install, and dont worry Becky, you are not the first one to cut into the workmate
Never stop being impressed by your work mel
Thank you that’s really kind of you to say
The 'Learning curve' is much easier to learn with a True Friend....
Thank you we are all learning all the time 👍🤓👍
I love it little wood stove and sink and your hummus!! Haha
Thank you that’s kind of you to say 👍🤓👍
The Trigger and his broom gag reenacted into Mel and his saw gag went wooosh ha! Funny stuff mate 👍😂👍
Thank you 👍😂👍
Very neat and a good sized sink for a van too. Looking forward to seeing more of the build with Rebecca. 🚐🔨👍
Thank you Linz
Grease around the ring, got it! 😆...but what did you tell Rebecca? 🤣...Have a nice weekend you two 😀🍸🍺😃
Thank you and you 👍
Rebecca, what ever you do, Don't let him force it in with silicon grease..!! 🤭
👍😂👍
Love it,
Thank you ☺️
Lovely homage to Triggers brush gag at the start 😂 Very informative and a good watch. Cheers Mel and Rebecca from Mal and Dave
Thank you ☺️
so cute
Thank you that’s really kind of you
Mel. You need organize videos into playlist. Or at list one playlist that can play all videos one by one. Really like to watch all your videos 3 years ago. But pain to watch one and then and go back for another. I think that playlist might increase your watch time too for new subscribers. Thanks
Thanks Mark I do have some play lists I’ll have a look and update them iv just really been busy with my channel and building a website to for the new year thanks for your positive encouragement and support really appreciated
Nicely done! Loving the honey color too!
Thank you for sharing hunnies!
Thank you 🙏
Definitely chemistry between the two of you 💘
I know Bob is such a character you can’t help but love him 👍😂👍
It’s great your working together :) have to say I love the sink and the tap and the shine is incredible wish mine was like that Rebecca van looking amazing 😊🤗
Thank you 😊
The innuendos 😂
Who me never 😂😂👍
LOL the Terry and June of vanlife :)
Who?
@@BigVanSmallWorld Sorry I'm showing my age. It was a comedy programme in the 70's and 80's
Good jpb om the staining and varnish....also great sink instal
Don't forget to grease your O ring , it slips in a lot easier LOL , saucy muppet , loving the vids keep them coming x
Oh matron 👍😂👍
Fantastic install Mel, this is one of your best. You should be really proud of that
Thank you Buddy Becky just put links to the sink and pipe in the description for you 👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld thank you Becky
Tap connection would have been helpful? But a great video.
Love that sink installation. My first time on the channel, but already clicked like and subscribe!
Thank you for your support and positive encouragement I really appreciate you taking the time to comment 👍😊👍
yay ... I know im slow Sorry but its taken me this long to work out Mel's got a new Girl friend :)
Last Christmas they were doing pink drills & other pink electrical tools, Etc in Lidl.... Just right for the girls.... be careful with that silicon grease around the O ring too...
Came out well that, very nice
Thank you very much 👍
Brilliant, off to IKEA we go.
Fantastic 👍😃👍
love the 'slap-stick' music.
Thank you me too 😂
This one popped up so decided to watch it ... I am a massive Ikea fan, so of course my sink in my camper is from Ikea, it's the round one, can't remember the name now (but I should know it cos I've fitted about four in different houses !!) and lots of ppl comment on it, being small but quite deep. The finished job looks fab, and I love the tap too 👍💯✔💕
Thank you Jo 👍🤓👍
Another great job Mel as per
Thank you 😊
Heads up Mel, I just bought that sink & it actually comes with the waste pipe kit! Bargain for £55! Cheers for the video
Thank you 🙏
When he smiles whole world smiles with him
Thank you 😊
Should have used a " Hack " saw 😁
Very nice 👍
Thank you 😊
Basin on comments you both seem to have tapped into a good series, Rebecca looks flush with success.
Haha that’s golden thank you 👍😂😂👍
Wow! 🏆🏆🏆
Thank you ☺️
In the words of Kenneth Williams “ Oooooh Matron”. !!! well if you will use the words lubricant and ring in the same sentence, 😂 😂
Have a great Christmas 🎅🏻
Hahaha 🤣 and you buddy 👍😊👍
Lube always makes it go in easier guys.
Oi Oi
A little bit of silicon grease around your o ring. You can’t go wrong. Lmao
Haha 😂
Omg, I would have had a field day with all the potential innuendos regarding O rings, grease and sliding it in if this had been my video...😳😂😛
Oi Oi Now now family show and all that 😂😂🤣🤦♂️
@@BigVanSmallWorld 😂😛
The old sandwich sink trick.
Very nice
Thank you 😊
You definitely need to look into grinder safety ! That’s lethal Mel!
I know rite
Mel this looks brilliant, be very interested to see the tap flow rate fantastic job.
Thank you buddy time will tell 👍
As a chippy, even watching amateurs is interesting.
Thanks
Mel . Nice job looks great you know your stuff . Robbie U K
Thank you
IKEA SINK HACK IN A CAMPER VAN
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you 👍
If you wanted to, you could just of siliconed the sink in from the top, silicone can work wonders for glueing, the clear silicone has more sticking power as it is not diluted by colour
Yep that’s what I thought 👍
❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙#supportvanlifers
Haha 😂 grease up your o ring 🤣 Fantastic job Mel 👍 really big well done. What thickness of wood in that worktop?
Hi Bex the work top is from Homebase I think is 20mm but more like 19 👍
if a sandwich won't work, simply screw, if that won't work, use silicon grease so it slides in but won't get stuck ...
are we still talking about van builds ?
somehow I hope that's not the only subject ;) ...
as someone once misquoted : a dirty mind is a joy forever ;)
btw, you might need a router on the bottom piece to get it all slotting in nicely without any unwanted leaks :p
Thank you it’s all good
Mel be greasing her ring pmsl
Mel FFS Mate put a guard on that angle grinder you will one day be like me yep left hand 4 finger but only 2 work ,,,PLEASE PLEASE NEVER JUST DONT USE A GRINDER WITH NO GUARD !
Its bloody painful ,
But still a friggin funny vid mate .
Thank you I promise to never do it again 👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld Good man
Thank you Mel! Such a helpful video & fantastic channel. I have subscribed for more. Can I ask which tap that is please? I’m struggling to find a tall one like that. Thank you
Hi Martin it’s just a regular domestic tap I’ll ask Becky where she got it from 👍
*Saw you at Woolleycod Wanders. I am into vans. We have had 5 vans. I am impressed with what you have done with yours. We have some videos that you would like come check us out*
Absolutely brilliant thank you 👍👍
Any chance you could show the lillvaken waste drain set up below the sink?
I’ll see what I can do for you 👍
@@BigVanSmallWorld super. Thanks Mel
👷🏼♀️👏
Hi Mel, love your videos, I am doing a minibus van for my Daughters to use with their families. I have a leisure battery & diesel heater already in, but I was thinking maybe have a bluetti or jackery with solar, what do you recommend & what do you think I would need. Thank you
Thank you for your kind message. I’d say they’re great as a backup as for what one would be depending on your budget keep an eye out for special offers and deals on Amazon 👍
Hi Mel sorry this question is not about this vid. Going to fit Chinese heater and where I want to fit it, the fuel pipe will be about 2 feet from the heater less than what it recommended in the manual. Does this matter or will I have to fit it elsewhere thanks malc
Stick to the manual or it won’t work good luck
Just like Triggers brush 😂
Haha I couldn’t help myself 👍
Eye protection!!! Tie your hair back!!
You’re going to get hurt. 😕
Thank you that’s kind of you 👍🎄🎄
A quick question for you Mel? My change over switch is constantly clicking on and off whilst I'm driving do you think it's broken already? Should I put a killswitch between van battery and change over switch? From BIGMICK IN Hull
I think that’s normal when battery’s are fully charged up 👍
Rebecca what ever you do don’t Sink to Mels rude one liners 😂😂
Haha 😂
Why didn't you use the standard clips that come with the sink?
I didn’t see any clips 🤦♂️
@@BigVanSmallWorld Crikey, you missed out, they connect onto the lip that you cut off and bite into the underside of the counter. They should come in a bag with the sink and waste. On the plus side it's a nice sink and there is a plastic basin sold for it that fits in nicely too. The stopper / strainer works well on them too.
They are crap..that's why.
The music is loud and annoying but very good craftsmanship. Thanks
Yes I thought that too 👍
Please always wear safety goggles or glasses when using power tools. I've made the mistake of not and I ended up at the eye dr in heaps of pain.
So how did you find out about silicon grease around your ring helps it slip in 😂😂😂😂
Now that would be telling 😂😂
Good vido Mel..now go feed the cats
Thank you ☺️
Hi. Who’s the gentleman helped with fitting your sink ?
If you want to see more of Becky head over to her channel www.youtube.com/@SACREDTRAVELLER
1St LOL
Thats cheating!
🤣🤣👍🏻
bet you weren't,
but who cares :p
Bleeding cheek
If you have NO silicone grease then washing up liquid will do the same job 👌👌
Please, please teach your student to wear safety glasses when using tools .. you tool :D
Sink bench looks GREAT ! but will it be stained by water / cooking oils etc
No it’s beed varnished so hopefully it be rite
😅😮😮
Didn’t get the link for this one Mel?
Good morning I did post a video for all members with no advertising and it should still be there I’m not sure what has gone wrong I will go back and check it out thank you for letting me know I think I’ll change the thumbnails on members video to make it easier for you to identify the ones without the advertising
is this the longest you've been away from home......... lol
Home is where you park it 👍😊👍
Please wear protective eye glasses when sawing people. Nice job otherwise.
£50 for that tiny sink!
For the same money I got a draining board and a sink twice the size.
I suppose IKEA sell expensive cheap gear?? Never been there.
Good video though, all the best fellow #Vanlifer #Vanlife
I know it’s strange the smaller things are the more they cost I mean take a look at my fridge it’s tiny and cost a fortune 🤷♂️🤷♂️😂👍👍
You look like you lost loads of weight Mel what’s the secret 🤔
Thank you keto 👍😊👍
I’m not very happy Mel that you are using an angle grinder without a guard on it. I have seen very experience men lose their fingers because of this. Not having a moan at you watched your videos for a long time. But don’t do it
Thank you Clive I promise I won’t do it again 👍
👍 That’s good because you won’t be able to put your thumb up if you do
Keep the videos coming Very good

Thank you for the positive feedback I’ll try and show you how I fitted them on a waffle on a Wednesday won’t be this week but I’ll try for next 👍
