⏩ What's with the gloves?
Not after any UA-cam fame here which is why I'm not in the vids - they're not about me they're about the how-to! I used the gloves for the first couple of projects I filmed which just happened to be messy ones and it kinda just became a thing - easy to spot my videos! If that's not your thing and you'd prefer to watch a face, all good, I won't be offended, there's plenty of better looking ones to watch already on UA-cam ;)
⏩ Where did this start?
I really enjoy tinkering with different projects - they usually require a whole bunch of research and learning along the way. It's satisfying on doing a thing and standing back and going 'Yeah! Totally did that!'. I had a bunch of mates asking 'how did you know how to do that?' and 'I couldn't never do that myself so I thought; I need to start something where I can help others that might be thinking the same thing :)
⏩ What will you find here?
The purpose is simply to make these videos as top quality and helpful as I can. They will always be free, there's ZERO agenda and the only motive is to try and upload what I would want to watch to help with that particular project. I'm also keen to keep building this little community and will try to answer all questions when asked - fire away :)

Love to see what other people like to take! Noticing how much room that toilet takes up, I have a fold up one that uses bags that fits behind the back seat in the dmax (although no point if you're not going to use it). Definitely given me a few ideas for things to take along next time!
Me too 😂 Yeah the big chem toilet def made it to the 'leave at home next time pile... Particularly as there were loos in a surprisingly heap of spots
Thanks Adam. Its interesting how ppl prioritize diffrrent things
ive been living in my triton and tiny homemade trailer converted into caravan for 11months now and a good strong comfy Chair is i think amongst my most important items.
One excellent item ive used is Lithium cranking batteries (they also double as house batteties, i use lithiumax)and these have been life savers as they are so small and can go more than 1yr without a chsrge) if i had the money i would upgrade my engel battery box to yours as it looks good and just has so many othrt functions.
eagerly looking fwd to your skynet review! (pls include use, setup etc as Im sure u will).
Wheres your water supply? water tanks? (i didnt see it in this video maybe i missed it). If u had 3 ppl im guessing you need at least 100lt tank min?)
Instead of showers as they are commonly found, I use a large collapsible bucket and bucket shower have one of those tiny toilet tents and 1 bucket to scrub and rinse with soap another to wash it all off and you can get pretty clean (skipping a good shampoo(shamp takes another bucket) on just two buckets and the buckets have multiple other uses. The mini tents are alsp good for a toilet or a wuick roadside clothes change.
Also ehere are your other tools? eg shovel? pick fishing rods?
Another item i find indespinsible is a lithium fan to keep cool and a cheap ($120) epay diesel heater for the cold, (also use it for drying fish and rabbit).
Thanks for your videos.
Cheers for the vid. Funny with the iTech solar panels. Bought the 100 and 200w. 100W not working straight out the the box and 200 would only give 128w max under ideal conditions. Returned both. Best of luck.
Good on you Adam, very informative without being boring. It 's great to share your experience and learnings for all of us. Thanks as always.👍👍
Great Video Adam!
Cheers Adam. I'm always taking far more than I need, especially on my hunting trips which generally only go for 2-3 days but I take more than enough stuff for weeks. I'm planning a trip in Oct from WA to SA, and maybe including a bit more (Vic, NSW?), so this video is making me revaluate my list. 3 or 4 weeks including a week long stay at one spot.
I always include a gazebo as I don't have an awning, and I also, as yet, do not have a 12v system so battery boxes for me.
I have also installed a long range fuel tank to alleviate the worry of not enough fuel on the big legs.
Yeah long range tank was on my list for the cape trip as well, but I didn't want to take one that sat below the chassis rails and I'm glad I didn't because there were a few parts of the old tele track that I was scraping on the chassis rails. Turns out really didn't need that kind of range going to the top as well as there was plenty of fuel about.
Great vid as always Adam - looks like you had an awesome trip. You mentioned an attachment for the Ryobi mini blower for deflating air mattresses etc - where did you see that?
Yeah was great! Main vid should be epic 🤘 Wasn't an actual Ryobi attachment, I saw a vid of someone who'd shoehorned some sort of plastic tubing on the end sealing with some tape. They demo'd sucking the air out of a mattress and was super quick!
Hi Adam, sorry to hear it didn't work out as planned. Certain the service team will be able to help you out.
Love the attention to detail Adam 👍 random question, where did you get those orange/black shelves in your garage? They look a bit more solid than your general bunnings jobbies
Cheers 👍 Mob off marketplace, seems the been a bunch of sellers doing them
Awesome pair of videos, thanks for sharing. Can I ask how the iTech 300W blanket failed? And can I ask you how you went with the warranty. I only ask because I have a pair of them, havent had any issues yet, but I'm nervous now lol.
Cheers 👍 Yeah it simply wouldn't charge more than around 30w after one trip. In my exp the warranty took much longer than their own ETA and wasn't the greatest at all unfortunately, complete with told that they hadn't been able to test for a month because "we haven't had enough sun..". No joke. Anyway they replaced in the end to their credit. Like I said my experience only. Have since gone to a different brand for my main portable unit.
Another great video Adam, keen to hear your thoughts on the tub canopy 👍🏻 or 👎🏻
Still on there, is a winner in my book, will have dedicated vid showing it next in the 'damage report' vid
@@VideoShowMeHow looking forward to the video, will there be a discount code for the tub canopy?
I'm pretty sure you could wash the Sock Filter! On bikes wash it with fuel & put a thin film of 2 stroke oil on it, like new!
I have a 47l fridge and think it's a great size. Clear top bags for non fridge food.😂 The 18v power tools, chainsaw rattle gun and grinder definitely a winner. Interested to find out what happened to the solarvblanket.
Looking to purchase a solar blanket soon. Cheers
Yeah, eventually got the blanket replaced under warranty but to be quite honest it was like pulling teeth, pretty disappointed in how they went about it. Even to the point of saying it was a 'minor' fault (So they didn't need to provide a refund option) when it would only put out a max of about 30 watts (pretty major in my book if the panels rated at 300 watts...). In any case on balance at least they replaced with a new one under warranty. If I were purchasing a new solar blanket, I definitely recommend checking out their warranty policy and what that looks like before pulling the trigger.
Adam if possible can you do a video on a tool kit . what is a must and what is not.
For a cape trip? Or more general trip? Reckon it's a great idea mate
Great video, thank you so much for sharing, it will certainly help me out planning for my trip to the Cape.
Stay tuned mate, the full 'how-to' do Cape York video will be out soon :)
Great vid mate 👍🏽 what the name of the storage boxes cheers
Frontrunner 👍 Link in description

@VideoShowMeHow thanks they look great 👍🏽
Big fan of em
What do you think about tub vs canopy? Would you remove the tub and go for a tray and canopy setup instead or the packing/unpacking you had to do.
So far, love it! I like the ability to basically have it empty for other activities, for normal trips the packing bit is pretty straightforward now as with the rtt, water/air/12v on board etc that's not a whole lot that needs to be packed :) But who knows lol maybe one day 😉
Hey mate.
Can I ask why you went with the Buck Wild fire pit, as opposed to any of the others which all seem exactly the same?
I’m shopping around for one now, and keen to know why that one caught your eye.
Cheers mate. As always, top vid!
hey, quality seemed good (and is now I've actually used it) and the bag that it came with is nice and sturdy, have been burnt by this before from another 'high volume low cost' seller ;)
@@VideoShowMeHow cheers mate.
It’s hard to tell from only being able to look online only.
Copy, “high volume, low cost”. Well played.
😉
would like to know how you mount your extinguisher please
Was able to mount using the existing bolts in the canopy 👍
What did you find wrong with the 300W solar blanket Adam? I’ve just returned from the Cape as well and found that my blanket was not drawing anywhere near enough. Max 8A but most often nowhere near that.
Mine just maxed at 30-35 W regardless of conditions :(
Not good at all. I’ve had those numbers as well as my 8A (96W) max in excellent, clear conditions but will do some more testing.
Hi Adam, I love your videos accidentally stumbled on. I presume you’re not running a sub fuel tank if that’s correct? thank you regards
Cheers! No not at the moment, am looking into one, ideally want it to sit above the chassis rails
Thanks 👍
How do you stop your ryobi chainsaw from leaking everywhere? Empty the bar oil?
You too? Yeah I just put a splash of bar oil in there when I use it and keep a rag in the bag
@@VideoShowMeHowgood idea thanks.
Do you think your brass monkey fridge would have cut it?
Yeah reckon would have been ok, has been a somewhat surprisingly great little unit
Had a grunt seal on my tailgate. I ripped it off. Completely useless.
Im going with positive ventilation and other then that. Making piece with the dust
Haha yeah, keen to explore the positive vent stuff too
