    Sorry guys I had copyright issues and had to redo this video we live and learn.

    That looks the business Mel and it makes perfect sense to get it done properly. In the grand scheme it’s a fraction of the overall cost but such an important part of the build.
    Thank you for the shout out we always watch your videos every evening, and we are currently near Porto in Portugal. New video out tomorrow morning 👍🏼😊

    It is a wise man that understands the difference between DIY vs the benefits of GSWKWTADTDIFY (get someone who knows what they are doing to do it for you!) Keep up the good work, both van conversion and videography wise.

    Hi Mel, I just watched this then it was deleted not sure why🤔. I was just going to get the details of the fitter but before I got my pen out the vlog had disappeared😩 I’m typing fast in case it’s deleted again😂 excellent job👍 I was going to ask you about the security of the latch on the sliding window also my concern with these windows is condensation🤔 Nick

    • @BigVanSmallWorld
      @BigVanSmallWorld  5 років тому

      Nick Jury I’m really sorry the first time I uploaded this video it had music playing and I got copyright issues so had to redo it without the music the latch on the window is really simple to open it from inside but impossible from outside condensation would be no different from any other windows unfortunately it’s the price you pay for having a window 🤓🤙

    You're right Mel, Always get a professional if you're not confident enough or got adequate tools, especially when doing the job for someone else, if you have the money and/or it's a high end van, not forgetting the warranty of-course.

    Mel, that toque makes you look Canadian. On second thought, no, you still need something else... like a hockey stick in the background, or the flag, or maybe put maple syrup in your tea.... Hold on, how about if you were converting a Zamboni? It's never been done, Mel. You could be the first. Imagine how many views you'd get for that! The subscriptions would go off the charts, and your new found Canadian fans would cheer.
    On second thought, it would be easier to just apologize to everyone saying you couldn't find a Zamboni to convert...while wearing a toque, and putting maple syrup in your tea, with a flag on a hockey stick in the background. There. Problem solved. That's as Canadian as it gets, eh?
