Dang, I watch 14 minutes of this and I need a beer or three! So technical you guys, holy cow don’t know how you endure. 🤣🤣🤣
Looking good guys be safe out there your buddy from Oxford
Wtg looking fabulous! But come on out and visit already!
Well done, coming along nicely. I hope that you are ok. Safety First 👊🏼
Only joking, can’t wait to see the finished product. Love that you are documenting it from the very beginning. Brian tends to almost overbuild and that’s good!
Hi! Guy's Turn up the volume when Brian speaks or have Brian speak louder . HAHAHA!!!!!!!
Good space saving, lots of work but big advantage to final outcome..............JB..
What you got done looks good so far , but looks a lot to do yet , good luck with it all .
As you were saying how smart Brian is I noticed he’s not wearing eye protection and drilling through metal over his head. 😂 just kidding. Please know I’m just joking about a very serious mistake ALL men make! We’re invincible!!! 😂
The van looks amazing and I’m impressed with the quality and detail you two have put into this project! Love watching the progress!
coming along nicely!
So if I decide to do this I know who to call for help! Looks good!
Looking good kids.great detail. 👍
Wow! Such a lot of work, but it's gonna look awesome when it's done and you're gonna be so, so, proud of it 👍Keep on grafting!
Looks great guys
Looks good and good job
Looking good!!
watching from the beginning of the camper build I’m just sooooo proud of you two, such an undertaking. The planning of what to use for materials & fitment of everything has to be stressful.
The washers are so simple & genius.
Van builds are a big undertaking for sure. Your build looks solid and hopefully not too heavy 🙏🏻
Looking Great.
You sure You Dont wanna Build Another 1? 🤣
Thanx for Sharing im Excited to see whats Next. 🤘
Fantastic. Protect your Drill fellas..lol
I've tackled a couple of indoor projects and I was a beginner also. Sometimes solutions to a problem would come to me in the middle of the night. Just take your time. Looking good. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋♂️
This is turning out awesome. Love watching the progress
Brian - I’m so sorry to see all of your owies- I hope Heather has a lot of bandages for you- looking great! (The van!)
So many people have started these conversions and quit in frustration in the middle and then put the whole mess up for sale. We've watched you do other projects so we're hopeful you'll see this one through to the end. We are rooting for you and appreciate the parts you've taken the time to film and share. Your work is excellent. Thanks for Sharing!
Brian has said out loud ‘let’s just sell it’ multiple times 😂 but we’ll definitely be finishing this 😉
@@LifeontheBlacktop I wonder what the divorce rate is of couples who decide to build adventure vans together 😂. After the insulation debacle Brian better be careful.
@@whiskeythrottle9772 it has to easily be 98% lol!
Looking good Brian, you are very meticulous in your design and execution. keep going, cheers
Thank you for sharing your progress with us! I enjoyed watching it. You might not want to build another one, but I bet it will be a fun once it's done. Looks like you both are doing a good job. Can't wait to see the video on your first trip in the van.
you are a patient man...ahh couple! Nice work.
It’s coming along. Keep up the good work.
Keep on trucking getting there
“Well, I am an engineer.”
Translates to machinists/mechanics etc. to “It looked good on paper, but I have no idea if it’s practical for those who have to do it”. 😂
I forgot to hit the bell, but found this - thanks - Question: do you have links to other Van Bloggers?
We don’t watch a ton of other van lifers, but some of my (Heather) favorites are Kara and Nate and Eamon and Bec. I think our very first van channel we ever watched were Max and Lee. Lee passed away so now I think the channel is Max and Occy
Yes first one
Dammit. I was coming for this 😅
@@HerTwoWheels loser. Do better next time!
@@HerTwoWheels Maybe next time
👍👏👏👏👏✌
Not bad for an amateur! 😂 just kidding, looks great
So how much to do mine when I get it LoL? It's going to be awesome 💯
Hey.....you can put water bed in there...lol
What type of wood did you use for the framing?
The horizontal pieces are 3/4 exterior grade plywood, then the verticals are 1/2” plywood mostly. I would advise against using standard 1x4s or 1x3s because they split very easily. I wanted something with a little strength to it so 98% of it is all plywood.
Please the name of the instrumental song when you were gluing...
Oh man, I’ll have to go back in Da Vinci and look. It’s from Epidemic Sounds but I’ll check!
