I absolutely love that you now have this experience with Grandpa! I hope you treasure this experience forever 💜
I was just going to say the same thing! So special....and so fortunate to have this time together! Don't hesitate people, go do something with your parents and/or grandparents before the opportunity passes! Thank you for sharing this Eva! From Teri in Michigan, USA
I know. It's priceless
It’s great you get to spend time with your Grampa like that. He cherishes these moments as much as you do.
Came here to say the same thing. Any time I get to spend with my granddaughter is pure joy.
Great comment ❤
Try to spend some time and cherish every moment, they are around. It happened to me that I lost both grandpas in a span within a year.
I think this episode made me smile the most of all your videos. While it matters it fits and works, your time with your grandparents is more important than how you put wood and screws together. Sitting down to lunch with grandma, grandpa and potato pancakes is priceless.
You'll always remember the wonderful time you had with your grandfather building something together!
You are so very lucky to still have your grandparents. Treasure them. ❤
It warmed my heart to see your grandpa helping you. My young granddaughter calls me PawPaw. I hope I'm around for a long time to teach her things and help her when she needs it.
The most important thing here is making memories with Grandpa! You needed him with this project but I assure you that he needs you a million times more!
Quits camping, stores camper, buys car. Turns car into camper… I for one love it!!! And I get it, just a overnighter etc
Every time you use that rig, no matter where, no matter the weather or conditions, you will always have the treasured memories of building it with your grandpa 😊
Long and faithfully may it serve !
Here here Amen to that 🙏 🙌 ❤🎉
2 minutes in and I knew your grandpa was exactly what you needed in your life right now. When I first saw your grandma in one of your videos a long time ago it was obvious you were truly at home with her. It is cool to see you home. I bet they think so too. Vilk owns you. When he sat down on you he was telling you how it is. That was a good laugh. He turned out to be such a good boy. I hope he loves your grandparents too.
I love how your grandparents don’t mind being in your videos and while you casually talk in another language to a camera. ❤
Everyone has to start somewhere. No fuss ! Great to have a Grandpa to help. I am sure he has enjoyed helping you, being of use to his grand child, being valued for his experience to help you. Fulfillment that only grandparents know.
Everyone starts out a rookie at everything until we learn it. Learning from your grandpa, priceless! ❤️🇨🇦
I sensed Such warmth and security in you as you worked with your Grandpa and enjoyed your Grandma’s love and care. It was wonderful to see you being cared for and being with your family, Eva.
Love your Grampa. My youngest daughter just told me today that I’ll be a grandpa for the forth time. I have changed how I eat to stay healthy for them. Plant based has changed everything. But so glad you have your grandpa
Oh, Eva, I am from Poland and partly, because of your channel, and watching you with your grandparents, I am missing my Poland even more. Well done on your camper! :))
The fact that you can share something like this with your grandpa and grandma is priceless! May you enjoy them for a million years to come! ❣❣❣
Admitting you don't know how to do something just shows you're willing to keep learning. Keep doin you girl!
she needs to wear safety glasses. even when helping on the table saw
@@Curling_Racksawdust in the eye is extremely painful, I wouldn't want to find out what a splinter feels like!
Hi Eva I am Zulfiqar Ali Mughal a UA-camr watching from Hyderabad City Sindh Pakistan ❤
A big fan of your adventures ❤
Grand-parents are the best. I lost my “Grampy” at 11, but he had already started showing me how to use basic hand tools. I have always regretted that he didn’t get to show me more. Nan’s always have yummy foods to hand - it’s just the law 😂. I hope you enjoy the camper once made xx
I am sure it was special for your grandpa to help you with this project, it will always mean a lot to you that you have this memory. Congrats and I hope you make awesome memories with your new car 🥰
What a grand time that you and your grandfather got to spend together and him showing you so much! Cherish it and yes be thankful. What a joy! Cant wait to see the rest of the build 💚💚
@officialEvazuBeckry not sure how to do that
I just spent 22 minutes of complete carefreeness. Thank you!
Fajnie mieć takiego kompetentnego dziadka, który ma wszystkie narzędzia pod ręką i służy dobra rada.
i think its sooooo cool you're working a project with your grandpa. i wish my grandpa was still alive to work on projects with. i'm certain that working on a project with you means so much to him.
Sorry, Eva, but i'm not on any social media
I love seeing you and your grandpa working together. I miss my grandpa all the time. This video made me smile and warmed my heart.
Cool project to build with your grandpa! Memories and good times for life
Thank you for sharing your grandparents with us!! It is so wonderful you still have them available to interact and learn from. In most ways the "old-time" ways are still the best ways. Hi Vilk!
Grandpa joking in the end! So sweet of him! Building stuff is a growing passion, it's like a puzzle. If you have seen in done there is always a solution that you can find, if it hasn't been done you can try ( and again and again and again). Every building task is a new learning opportunity that enriches the way you think and understand every single piece of furniture. As you can understand I am into building and fixing things. All the above is why I am fascinated by it. Plus it gives me bonding opportunities with my dad, so it's cool.
As a grandfather I know how happy you have made yours. Stay close and give your grandparents lots of love.
Absolutely! Never take your grandparents for granted. Just lost my grandmother last year. She was 108. This is a great opportunity to spend with your grandparents. Enjoy! And how lovely to have the memory on film.
Your Grandparents have a LOVELY home! And quite a shop for your Grandpa!! And the area they are in is STUNNING! WoW!! And congrats on the project !!
Most of the time this kind of video’s show ‘perfection’. Nothing goes wrong…. A bit unrealistic and giving you the feeling that will never happen with your own project.
This video, from Eva, is realistic and that I like! Sometimes you struggle, most of the times it goes very well! Well done!! And Eva… you can and should be proud!! 👍🏻
And I like your grandfather! A haven of peace!
Such a great example of being willing to step out and be a beginner and being proud of what you achieve. Even if it can't match the level of somebody who's a professional. It's a great way to start anything new. 🌸🧡
I love the part where you say it's so empowering to be able to use the tools. All too often, we take for granted the skills required to build things. Looking forward to the rest of the build.
Love love love seeing you working with Grandpa. It warms my heart ❤
How incredibly special to still have your grandparents and get to do a project with Grandpa. 💕 Im happy you got to create this with him. Makes me think of my father. When he was alive, he taught me so much in his woodshop and I also kept his old scissors. They were the best! He always kept them so sharp. Enjoy your new camping adventures. 🎉
My grandpa taught me how work with tools and had help him with many home projects...
I still miss him dearly 😔
Your very blessed to be working with your grandfather ❤
Thank you for sharing your grandparents. I recently heard a UA-camr say they “use to” write in a journal. Now they don’t have time because of UA-cam.
I paused and thought what are you doing right now? UA-cam is journaling. It’s just a different way of doing it.
Documentation like this is priceless when you’re his age . To reflect upon these moments with this amazing footage.❤.
I lost my grandfather at 20. He was a master carpenter who worked on some major projects in the area in his day, including foreman on a nuclear plant that's out of commission and something called "the fish ladder" on the Connecticut River. I would've loved to learn his trade, but he was already out of work on disability by the time I was a little kid. I do have one great memory, simply building a fence in the backyard of the house he had built for his family. It was really cool to have done something like that with him.
😂❤ love how you're taking on the challenge. What a gift to do this project with your grandfather.
I loved seeing you work with your grandpa. You will never forget those days.
Favorite moment 🤩 seeing Eva and Gpa working barefoot on Polish cobblestone together 🦶 Your build looks just right for you Eva 🏆
Eva you are priceless. Absolutely show exactly who you are. I believe when you put your mind to anything you can and will make it happen. Watching you with the grands made my heart happy for you. Thank you for posting to entertain, educate and share your journey, we LOVE you! We love you too Vilk! 🩷
just for future reference... When you put in top doors, cut just the hinge side, install the hinges, then cut out the rest. Always a perfect fit... even bad cuts will line up perfectly. :)
Eva. You are your grandpa's apprentice. ❤ You will pick up all the skills and be able to do home renovations when you buy or perhaps build your new home 🎉 I felt so happy watching you work with your grandpa. And spending time with your grandparents. Priceless. 🥰
I bet your grandparents are thrilled to have you come visit. My granddaughter is coming to visit tomorrow. I just got back from town. I bought all of her favorite foods. Well, I did forget the chocolate milk. This is a memory making moment. I hope you had a good time with your grandparents.
With 26 years building cabinets for a living, I can say with all certainty..you did a wonderful job! Hardest thing is deciding what you want for certain, but then it's all gravy after that! Again, great job!
are you kidding ? If that thing doesn't fall apart from being jolted around during backroad travel then i'm a monkeys uncle . and Why didn't he use a plywood blade to rip the plywood ? and Why not use a thicker plywood to anchor those screws which should not be anchored in the plywood ends anyway . Unless you are just trying to be nice by telling her how good it is , please , be real !
My dad is like your grandpa. He is a precision machinist, but a freakish near master of all trades. He always works PAINFULLY slow, but every job he has ever done is artful perfection. Definitely good life lessons in older generations.
I am guessing that your Grandpa can fix anything.
Everyone on UA-cam seems to be such professionals when you look at DIY builds. It's so refreshing watching you not doing everything perfect but still be happy and proud of your work. It really gives me confidence to give something like this a go knowing I don't have to be perfect as well.
"Maybe it's not very smart of me to make it so public on the Internet that I am incompetent at certain things..."
I love that you made this point because so many people pretend to be something they're not. It's refreshing when people are just open about themselves in this way because you're being real and when we are real in front of others, a lot of other people go, "Oh, okay, I'm glad I'm not the only one" and are willing to open up too. Love you for this Eva. Keep it up girl.
Eva, you are blessed with loving grandparents. You are right, we should all appreciate our beloved grandparents!
I love this Eva and the moments with your grandpa! Thank you for showing us we don't need to be perfect and that we can always learn something from scratch and ask for help. I think we don't need to have everything figured out, I guess most of us don't have these skills unless we learn or need them at some point. We are so used to seeing the final result in so many UA-cam videos that we forget all the tears and the hard work that were put into it. We are not perfect, we are just humans.
You can strengthen the drawers by adding some 90 degree "L" brackets. You especially need them where the piece with the handles connects to the sides and bottom. Otherwise, they may break apart when pulling them open with excess force. Good job, and also great memories you have created with your grandparents,
right , and she should have used them everywhere instead of screwing directly into the thin plywood edges because they will surely pull out with all the bumpy back roads stressing them
It's neat how your prior experience living in a truck helped you come up with a good design for this project
Time with Family is PRICELESS. You know Eva, i think you can push that front passenger seat forward & be able to sleep vertically instead of on an angle.
Hey Eva - Loved this episode - quality time with your grandad - precious times to be remembered forever . You're now ready for those weekends of adventure - big love from us x
How a sweet pie you are Eva. Great to here your voice again.🌷
Hi Ava, have fun with this new build, I have been following you for about 4 years I love your content
Awesome video as always Eva and Vilk. Y’all’s grandparents are such awesome people.
Your grandpa is so cute explaining and letting you do it but not letting you downs when situation overwhelmes you!
Polish sounds so lovely! Great sleeping compartment Eva (and we also eat potato cakes here in southern Germany!)
love listening to you talking in polish (to your grandpa 😍). 😊😊😊 so lovely!
This is such a heartwarming video, Eva! I miss my grandfather dearly and it brought tears to my eyes seeing you spend quality time with yours. These memories will last a lifetime 🤍
That was such a fun episode! Your grandpa is awesome! What a fun and rewarding experience!
You know Eva , you do have to start somewhere with your carpentry skill. As you do it more , you will become very proficient . One point , if I may, when doing your drawers. Try to use some
of the more solid woods i.e. pine, maple or birch etc. whatever available , not Plywood . You don't want to split the wood when screwing the sides together. You know your grandpa is
right . Slow down. It's not a race all the time. Sending you much love ❤❤ from our current location in Cascais , Portugal Jim, Harriet and Yuki
Should set your table saw blade height to where the top of the blade just kerfs the wood, no higher as well to use a blade with higher tooth count to not tear out the cut edges. Also spray adhesive is highly underrated
exactly . I also feel by screwing directly into the plywood edges the thing will just pull apart from jolting down bumpy roads , especially when the plywood is so thin .
Many years ago, when I was in High School I had a project where I needed to get the dimensions of our house. I thought that I would have to measure each room's walls on the inner part of the house. My Mom knew that I was struggling so she encouraged me to ask my Dad for help. When I asked him, he took me outside and we measured the house and with his help, it was actually a lot easier. My Dad passed away last year and Eva is right, cherish the family you have around you and keep alive the good memories! Your project turned out great Eva!!
There are very few incompetent people in the world, just inexperienced... At 78, I know a great deal more than my body can still accomplish, but no one knows anything until they have done it or studied it. Your videography and editing have improved a great deal, however you seem to sense what looks right to most of us. I have watched a few with fantastic content but no idea how to capture it in a watchable way.
Great grandpa !!! Btw, I always watch your videos and smile , you are a great human ☝️
5:20 little mistake here , it's inches not feet.😊
Isn't this technically your 2nd build? Your uncle and brother helped you build out Odyssey.
You said it already but I'm going to say it anyway....you are so lucky to have grandparents still...I would give almost anything to have another hour with my grandparents, I miss them so much
Grandpa wisdom and Grandma cooking is gold!
Young look younger and more relaxed and happy Eva, Howdy from East Texas
Grandpa sucking down a few cold ones while working with his granddaughter. Priceless!
Who sucks beer? Weird
You still have time to edit this comment.. Lmao. Bro said he's tryna suck down something???
@@CartwrightFour A sucker for beer :)
Sadly I never got to know my grandfathers. Grandpas seem to be a most encouraging and supportive force! Yours has been checked and confirmed to be a real treasure! 🤗
A also already see that Vilk will really love spending the nights there, sleeping all across you, smooching you occasionally, kicking you accidentally when waking up with an itch at the neck… ☺
It'll be great in a lovely chaotic way! 🤭
i love to listen you talking in your native language... it is so beautiful!
But you have a camper. It's called Odyssey
Could've sold it to her buddies that just had to buy a new engine for their defender (New Meridian).
Indeed, I feel like Im having deja Vu 😅
Odyssey is an over lander ment for living in for months at a time. This is a short term camper/ sleeper weekender. And a Daly driver that seats four.
@@jasonh4167 So, why did we have to search the comments and find your useful explanation . . . Shouldn't Eva already explained that at the beginning of this confusing video 😐???
@@BrassLock She already explained all that in her Last video
Peoples shouldn’t be afraid of trying something they know nothing about. Everyone has to start at zero and move forward. They don’t have to become experts to really enjoy something either. I’m retired now and don’t consider myself expert anything, but I am at least mediocre at a lot of things and I’ve had a lot of fun. Oh, and one more thing, grandpa‘s NEVER let their granddaughters fail, not if they can help it. 😊❤️
Way to go with the drawers! Your grandpa rocks! And his lesson about slowing down a bit, nowadays is priceless as we are go-go-go with everything being so instantaneous. Looking forward to the next build :D
Live this episode and your work Eva. Treasure them always, I am unfortunately one of the few who never met my grandparents they died before I was born as my parents had me late in their lives . You are very fortunate to have them, always seek their love and guidance!
Working with your grandpa is so special. I’m a grandpa to12, and one great grandson. I feel so loved by all of them. I’m 75. Ages range from 6 months great grandson to 25….
Well done Eva! The only way to learn a new skill is to dig right in. I am glad that you still have your grandpa. I lost both of mine during the same week when I was six years old. Treasure the interaction; it is golden.
Your grandma and grandpa are so sweet. Good job on the build!
Excellent job for your first time project!!! Seeing your satisfaction, pride and joy at the job you were doing coupled with the happiness at working with your grand-dad was priceless.🙏 well done!
How awesome it is watching Eva and giving a thumbs while sitting at my messy office doing the work I don't like!
Keep it going Eva, you are my daily habit of passion ❤
Not even a minute in and I like your Grampa already. Eva doing the dirty. Impregnating wood. Lol.
I agree with all the previous posts. It's amazing that you get to spend time with your grandpa & don't fret too much over the small stuff. Even if you mess it up it's still invaluable experience.
Wow, showing your incompetence is what inspires us, your 'just do it' attitude is the best!
Very nice work Eva Zu,proud of you and Grandpa, also Grandma for the cooking support
my heart goes out to you and your grandpa and grandma, you and they are happy to have each other with love
I Love when you are speaking Polish, I am Czech so I can understant almost everything ♥
You may have conquered the world with your many great escapes but deep down, there is still that
child in you. Great to see you spending time with grandpa and learning some skills from him. Have fun in your mini camper!
Grandpa’s are great! Nice to have their knowledge and know-how to get things done!
This is awesome! I know you question yourself at times, but from an outsider, it looks like you push forward and are a great example of what is good in the world. Next to my mother, my grandfather had the biggest impact on me. He was a sailor, road Harley's, then after he retired he ran a semi-truck/lorry company. He is a big part of the reason I went in to the Marines and currently a cyber nerd building a Harley in tribute to him. Your wood working skills are better than mine.
So lucky to have Grandfather, the time spent with him is more important than thing fixing your mini camper
Great video, Eva! As a Grandma I know how much it means when the Grands stop in! This was a treasured time for you & them. Making memories is what it’s all about. Love & Blessings until next time!! ❤️🙏🏻
3:34 I love that your first step “it leaves me time to plan things” is having a walk with Vik 😁😎😘
I love this video. You are very lucky to have a grandpa to share that project with.
A lifetime memory for you Eva, this time with your grandfather. It's the same for your grandfather as well, as this is something that will stand out in his mind - time spent with you, and he feels he's passed something down to you.
As for building something yourself, there is something so empowering in using a tool to successfully complete a job. It can be very addictive! Lol. COVID saw me essentially take over as the building manager at work, and my tool collection has expanded almost exponentially - and I have ZERO regrets in buying and learning to use, each and every tool. Embrace your tools! Learn to use them, master them, even fix them. It's a time investment that pays back in so many different ways.
I love your grandpa and grandma! You should have them on more often, And also, congrats on a really nifty and simple solution to storage and a sleeping platform - impressive. Happy trails,
