When grounding extruded aluminum, what about the anodized surface? Does the anodic coating need to be removed to make electrical contact similar to removing paint?
It is my understanding that the torqued pressure of the connection points breaks through the thin anodized film coating. I have reached out to a few experts in marine electrical and others experienced with aluminum for confirmation. I will also do some tests and readings. Will clarify in an upcoming video when I have definitive answers.
@@HumbleRoad I know McMaster-Carr has the hammer nuts that are intentionally abrasive to break the coating: "Hammer fasteners drop in to the slot and turn into place when the screw is tightened. They're serrated to break the anodized coating on the rail, allowing static to dissipate." I think they have other hardware as well meant to break the coating for grounding.
George, I have no plans to live in a van or to build out one. That being said, I love watching your channel because of your mastery with the thought process. I love the fact that you have to plan things so far in advance such as where you're going to screw in a wood panel. Attention to detail was always my strong suit and I really love seeing somebody make it look valuable. You rock. 😁☮
Hi. You are an excellent teacher. I really enjoyed your elucidated , elaborated, and informative presentation. Please pick small projects and walk us through them via your step by step explanations along with introducing components and tools required. I am sure many people will be delighted to watch you. Thanks
Sir, as I look forward to using 80/20 for a personal build your channel has been the go to for vision and instruction, as your attention to detail, foresight, willingness to share, instructions, and delivery are absolutely incredible and very much appreciated. Thank you!
Thank you for this. I literally called you to get your take on 80/20, and now you have a video on it. You're amazing. I'm working SO hard on my own can build, and I hear your words in my head often, "let the van speak to you." It's how I made a lot of my design decisions. Thank you again.
If you use a zinc primer where you drill into the van to attach the 8020 you'll have protected steel and it still conducts current. In collision repair we use zinc primer every time we weld a lap joint and need conductivity but still needs to protect from rust between the two pieces of steel. It's good enough connectivity for the current of a welder so it'll handle the inverter current.
It's a pleasant change to watch a video of someone telling you how to do things who REALLY DOES know how to do it, excellent video, enjoyed the voice of experience.
As I am watching, questions are bubbling up in my mind like soda bubbles in a glass. And each time, you answer every question as if you read my mind. And the extra tips like the 'sloping track acting like a lock washer', and the grounding tips are a bonus. You are a mind reader, George. For us information fanatics who analyze every detail, you answer every question before it is even asked. Such a pleasure. FYI - 'Loctite' is a brand name for a lot of products. I think you mean 'Threadlock' type product that creates friction on the hardware so it prevents it from loosening during vibrations on the road. Walnut dark grained wood on the subtle silver gleam of aluminum - a thing of beauty, perfection!
i’ve been spreading the word about your channel to all the quality people i encounter as i purchase and gather my items for my build as i hope it sends some sponsors or clients your way as a way to say thank u for all the help u have been on my project 🙏🏻
what a beautiful life man, waking up everyday to do essentially industrial design and just be able to transfer your ideas to real life products that make people happy, don't get me wron, I am thankful to God for my job and where I am in life, but boy oh boy would I like to do what you do! kudos to you Sir!
Your series is always at the top of my watch list! Can we get short video walkthrough on how you plan how much 80/20 you need and the easiest way to order? Looking at the site, it looks like they produce it precut, but price is by the foot. I imagine pre-planning is a necessity
Putting the entire thing together, locktite'ing it all in place, attaching the wood, and bolting down to find I forgot a piece is exactly the kind of thing I'd do.
This is amazing - love that your wood is used sparingly. I keep seeing builds where the cabinet box is build from solid ply and then the drawers are built from solid ply and it just seems like it will be super heavy
Thank You.. This is great info. IMO, where this product offers an amazing opportunity to the non-pro DIY novice builder without the skills, tools or money to do quality wood finish work. Leave the extruded metal visible and avoid having to finish wood work on corners and edges for a more industrial look. I've seen a few DIY van lifers using cheaper 1/4 plywood, sliding it into the groves of black 8020 and then wrapping in faux wood paper and it looked pretty good for DIY. And with this approach, a wild thought, but as you stated with nothing in a van being level I think I would be temped to just anchor and web the structure into the van itself vs building individual pieces outside the van for a more free floating design using thicker stock that would require less structure and assembly. I love the idea of furniture in a van that is just a structural façade with the bare van behind and underneath it!
Aa a fellow UA-camr and DIYer I appreciate the lesson. I have been fascinated with 8020 since discovering it a couple years ago. You have taught me more in 20 minutes than I could have learned in 3 years of making mistakes. I hope to collaborate with you on something in the future! Thanks again!
Like trying to get a drink of water from a fire hose. So much insight. I'll have to watch these more than once. This takes 8020 and turns it into an art form.
You are a craftsman in a time of a culture off throw it away in a few years. People don’t understand planning and execution. Slam it together and it’s good enough. I’m with you, it’s like a 401k a small investment of time in planning will pay big dividends in the execution. I’ve fought for 20 years to get people onboard at my work. Lol. Keep on keeping on. It’s great to see someone that takes the time and buys from a US based company like 80/20. Thank you for the content.
Such a detailed excellent explanation of utilizing 80-20 in a van build. I’m certain invaluable to many DIY’rs. It seems like the best way to go now, and I’ve seen other UA-cam channels using it in their builds. As we’ve learned from you “options, options” seem almost limitless. With every build success and mistake you’ve encountered while creating your masterpieces, it’s incredibly generous of you to share that info for other van builders to benefit from your experience, and avoid many lessons you learned along the way. Enjoyed the little “ flight” in the video. It’s frankly the only flight I want to take during this time lol. Have a great productive week, and I look forward to seeing you again next Sunday. 🚐🔩⚙️🛠♥️
Do you realized aside from my head exploding this morning. How many heads everywhere are gonna explode when everyone realizes how much space and weigh they are gonna save in their Builds, when they watch this video? I can’t tell you how many time I would me watching a video of a restoration of an old barn, factory, home, box truck. And would be so excited looking at that massive space. Then in an instant, everyone start building in frames made with 2x4’s. Then my heart would sink. And I’d say to myself. A dónde cojones se fue todo ese espacio?(Forgive me being Cuban this the way I’d say, WTF! where did all the space go?) And the excitement I had as I’d watch would drop big time 😢. 8020 or other types of extruded aluminum is the missing link. From what I got or understood and learned. Aside from using Proper Good Quality Tools. You’ve answered for me. The day I either get myself any suitable vehicle to make into a tiny home or a camper. What are the possibilities and how to make every inch count. Thank you my friend. You have open my eyes to more possibilities. I hope everyone else saw that as well. Thank you for as you said in one video. Calling yourself spoiled. But actually meticulous. Looking outside the box and You do not do the same DoDo everyone else does. I hope aside from myself everyone sees this and thanks you. Thank you my friend. Keep up the great work. Ps. In the video you were cooking something and it stuck. Rule of thumb. Always, always always, if you’re not using nonstick cookware. Make sure your food is not directly out of the refrigerator because it’s too cold. Think what happens when a cold front hits a hot front. You get thunderstorms, lightning, etc. And other words it’s pure havoc that happens inpan . Let what ever your cooking come up to the ambient temperature somewhat. Preheat an oil your pan as necessary, then cook at suggested temperature. That will solve the sticking problem. And it will lower your food to cook evenly, and actually quicker and will taste even better. Trust me. I sold pots and pans for many years. Expensive pots and pans. And returns as a retail person was an ugly word. Like you teaching people to use the right tools and the proper instruments etc. I had to explain to customers, friends and relatives. Again have a great day my friend and I am so elated I discovered your channel .
Oh yes yes, more extruded aluminum video tips please, I cant get enough info on this. This was just the tip of the iceberg, haha! Thank you so much for the walk through on this George. Greatly appreciated.
Very good point about grounding the 8020. I used aluminium extrude all through out my build, I didn’t ground them back i used a bolt that went through the aluminium extrude into the van shell, which grounded it without me knowing lol. But you’re right, having a ground makes it less likely for you to get a shock.
16:07 как только я понял какая замечательная система 8020 и как она подходит для RV , Ютюб порекомендовал Ваш канал . Спасибо большое за грамотное изложение , даже гугл переводчик справился на 99% , все предельно понятно. Про электротехнику и заземление 100% согласен 👍
@@allornothing7957 No, must meet some kind of industry standard as they used it throughout GM. Maybe google t slot air fittings. I thought I responded before but don’t see it now.
at 15:00 you discuss not being able to put in lighting. In my vintage Winnebago, there are two pieces of wood on the bottom of the cabinet and that's how the wiring for the lights is done. Would that second channel above the first allow you to do that? Of course repair of said lights might be a problem but I was just curious if you thought of doing that? You could potentially cut the wood such that it sits in one of these channels but also doesn't fully reach the other side and sits on "blocks" throughout for weight distribution. That way the bottom piece inside is removable (with a little corner 1/4 circle to pull it out on both sides.
100 agreed i have built four 3D printers with it. A Tip Use dollar store nail polish basically works for me like lock- tight. "Cheap and easier to control " Thanks
Regarding attaching wood to a metal frame. It's best to have the 90° aluminium brackets with slotted holes, to allow for the wood expanding and contracting, especially with solid wood 🇦🇺
I’m an engineer in the military aerospace field and use structural aluminum framing as much as possible (primarily for testing fixtures and one-off lab use). All of your tips are absolutely spot on. Great job and thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Oh my god, your a star! I'm gonna do everything in my van with this stuff. Love your easy to understand demo and explanation. Thank you so much...looking forward to watching your other videos.
Wow it’s hardly more expensive than the extruded aluminum options at lowes / Home Depot and you can get it in more sizes. Going to swap over to this stuff for my van Solar setup. Great ideas!

A simple test with ohmmeter from cut end to grounding end would prove if it is conductive.
@@mikegurley4397 Yes, exactly. I also need to test from one corner of an assembled module to the opposing and opposite corner.

Thank you so much 😀
Nice Sunday Morning w/George! Love the rounded 80/20 you use on face frames!
Me too!
Best Video I've seen so far when it comes to working with extruded aluminum! Really helpful short n on point! Thx a million
Sir, as I look forward to using 80/20 for a personal build your channel has been the go to for vision and instruction, as your attention to detail, foresight, willingness to share, instructions, and delivery are absolutely incredible and very much appreciated. Thank you!
Awesome, thank you!
Just sell us the kit George. We’ll buy it.
here, here!!
Thank you for this. I literally called you to get your take on 80/20, and now you have a video on it. You're amazing. I'm working SO hard on my own can build, and I hear your words in my head often, "let the van speak to you." It's how I made a lot of my design decisions. Thank you again.
Fantastic!
If you use a zinc primer where you drill into the van to attach the 8020 you'll have protected steel and it still conducts current.
In collision repair we use zinc primer every time we weld a lap joint and need conductivity but still needs to protect from rust between the two pieces of steel. It's good enough connectivity for the current of a welder so it'll handle the inverter current.
Excellent tip, thank you!
As is frequently said in the Australian Army, “Proper Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance”.
This is a better tongue twister than Peter Piper Picked a Peck of Pickled Peppers!
They say that in the US Navy too!
Not just the Australian Army I can guarantee.
UK military version , piss poor planning prevents proper performance .. same thing really

George.... you're great.
Don’t forget the rubber...now there’s some sound advice🤣 I love it when George shares his knowledge with all of us👍😊💕
Rubber isn't a great insulator. I'd put some compacfoam in there to get a much better thermal break and more strength.
@@Wookey. You ever see gaskets made of foam? Either way Lighten up.
