Aaahhh, my Sunday morning guilty pleasure. Always love your thoughtful design, George. ~ Patti in Calgary Alberta 🇨🇦 PS - Saw your nod to Canada with your Tim Horton’s coffee. 😊
I love that sweet camper George! Just knowing that you’re doing all that great work means the quality is excellent. Wish I had a place for it. I’d buy it for sure. ❤️ I always look forward to your next video. They can’t come quickly enough for me. 🙂
I absolutely adore your builds, i’ve been watching you for eons. But i gotta say, putting that second sink into that pleasureway left me scratching my head back then. I’m a firm believer in ‘to each their own’ but i would never give up a millimeter of bench space for a superfluous sink. 🤷🏼♀️ Small touches make huge differences. Putting that mirror upside down made the whole area so much more usable 👍🏼
Good morning, George! And a Happy Sunday to you! Thanks for brightening my day. I took notes on the Pex plumbing stuff. Really good info. Its those details you trip over when remodeling, that you so elegantly solved. These are great improvements you made to the trailer, bravo! The industry can learn a lot from you. Yes, you should absolutely change out that plastic sink in the bathroom, so blah and ugly. Put a stainless bar sink in there, clean lines and functional. This will match with shower rod. I found a great Euro style shower at IKEA for $25. It has that sliding rod so you can reposition the shower head for anyone's height. It looks elegant and beats the ugly showers they put into vans in the US. Every European RV has this type of shower. These small touches will make people drool over your trailer. We are hungry for good design, and not the mediocre 50's recycled fixtures and layouts they still make in the US. Very little design innovation in the US RV industry. You are leading the charge. Love it!!
Good morning, George! Sitting here enjoying my Sunday coffee and once again seeing your mind at work on great van and other RV inventions! I hope your weekend has been a good one! God bless! ~Jim in Houston,Tx~
When i had my Sprinter built out i told them i wanted the biggest sink they could put in my 22 and a half inch deep counter top. They squoze, squeezed (?) managed to fit in a 15-15/16 in. x 20-7/8 in x 9-3/16 deep single bowl under-mount sink (interior dimensions). They connected the chassis's 12v sysyem with the cabin's 24v system by using a non-isolated DC-DC charger but, they got the sink right.
Hi George. Retired 40 year plumber here. I know push fitting Shark Bites have been around awhile. I am not convinced of their longevity. I've seen some of these leaking over the years, especially if they are stressed at the fitting. Anything that has an o-ring seal will eventually leak. My big concern on a camper is that the tubing and joints are frequently moving, which may impact the seals. Even a tiny leak in a camper can turn into a huge problem. I would suggest making a transition fitting of type A to copper, and copper to type B. Maybe there is a pre-made fitting to do this. I never worked much with pex. I love your videos! Keep on rolling.
Yes , Sharkbites of old were not to be trusted. But these new ones, Sharkbites MAX are reported to be a different animal. I will surely keep an eye on them!
That stud finder must of cost a pretty penny. 😂 A functional sink is so important is a small space. Looks great George! So are you these days which after a rough spot is nice to see. 😊
Thank you! I stopped my hormone medicine the end of January, and I feel myself getting better and better as each month passes now my challenges to regain my muscle and lose the fat
@@HumbleRoad Get a tub of Glutamine, and have some right after workouts with a protein shake. Belly fat comes from high sugar levels, so cut out all white refined carbs, most grains/breads, sodas, alcohol, and sugars. Eat meat, veggies, eggs, cheese, cream, etc. Lecithin will also dissolve excess fat. Both Glutamine and Lecithin are natural products and good for you. There are Bio Identical Hormone creams that are safe to use to replenish missing hormones in men and women. Do not use conventional hormones, they are dangerous. Easy to get from a compounding pharmacy. Make sure you visit an anti aging hormone doctor not a regular one who knows nothing of hormones. Get sunlight on bare skin (nude sun bathing) to replenish Vit D, Melatonin, Serotonin in your body, its free and the best medicine.
Women need a countertop on which to rest a curling iron. Go deeper with the bathroom sink and put on a better faucet, but imo...don't take up counter space!
I guess that depends on how high maintenance of a woman you are. Me, no curling iron or blow dryer. And since starting full time rv life, my needs have lowered even further. Personally, I completely enjoy the simplicity of not needing a bunch of hair or face products. 🤷♀️🙂
U George - U R the reason Y I installed a BAS to the Transit in 2018 (for the illiterate out the there that means Big @$$ Sink-:) What did you not get your last shipment of 80/20 as you are screwing you cabinets together on the Midi? (blasphemy-:)
For the "Me" series, we developed a strong CNC printed cabinet using 3/4" plywood with dados, glue and screws. We were putting in custom efforts on the "Me" series. This allows a shorter build time, keeps the price down without sacrificing quality.
@@HumbleRoad 👍Got it. As much as I wanted to use this new fangled (to me) 80/20 in my build - I ended up not using a single foot of the stuff to construct my interior. It wasn't because of cost it was simply using materials (pocket screw a/w plywood) I was more familiar with to build something that I was completely unfamiliar with...
Use proper English, don't write like a semi-literate teenager with shortcuts. Its disrespectful and childish. You, not U. Are, not R. Your cabinets, not You cabinets. This is your English teacher speaking. Pay attention! Sloppy writing shows a sloppy mind.
@@TerryManitoba In other words, you were afraid to use something new and stuck to the same old materials. Aluminum struts are not 'new fangled'. They have been around longer than you have. Don't justify your inability to experiment and try new things. This is mental rigidity and fear.
@@mjremy2605 That's why I qualified it my saying new (to me) in the text. (look 👆) I learned how to design and construct my self built van without having done it before - EVER. So NO not mentally rigid. After 7 years I am glad I when with Plywood et al - because each time I want to tweak the rig (which is almost after EVERY trip I am more easily able to change the layout.(25 month that I slept in it - because I admit I did not get it right the first time))

Love the "TUSHI..." 💪❤
that is wonderful George, your ideas and your work are second to none. I wish you could work on my house. my wife would love it 👍👍
Can’t wait to see the Maxi-Me finished!

Good Morning George
Thanks For Your Build Update Video ..

Morning!
A day in the busy life of George….
George you are one of a kind 🤗👍🤺🏋️♀️☦️
Still in love with the lamp. Kind of like the stud finder as well.
Loved the new double faucet. Space saver.
When i had my Sprinter built out i told them i wanted the biggest sink they could put in my 22 and a half inch deep counter top.

So fun to see these side projects, too.

Keep on rolling.
I also have brass fittings that go from PEX A to PEX B so I could use those as well

I still love that Pleasureway.
As always. entertaining
Nice touch Tim Horton café bags for yours canadien fans
So much creativity and thoughtfulness.
Thank you George and team 🎈
You did a LOT to your camper, Humble Road quality and ingenuity.
YAY
I've been waiting for the trailer video 👍👍

There's no stopping you now!!! I'm so impressed the way you get things done!
Hi George, love the rechargeable lighted mirror. Can you provide a link for where I can get one?
Amazon affiliate link on my website; www.humbleroad.tv/amazon-affiliate
Hi George, why couldn’t you use the side of the medicine cabinet to mount the mirror?
Not optimal location when sitting on the toilet lid using the countertop as a work surface.
Women need a countertop on which to rest a curling iron. Go deeper with the bathroom sink and put on a better faucet, but imo...don't take up counter space!
Yes, bathroom remodels always take away the counterspace around the sink and we women need that counterspace
I guess that depends on how high maintenance of a woman you are. Me, no curling iron or blow dryer. And since starting full time rv life, my needs have lowered even further. Personally, I completely enjoy the simplicity of not needing a bunch of hair or face products. 🤷♀️🙂
@@cheriellis9215 wow you just dissed another woman because you don’t care how you look? 😅
George , nice trailer mods, do you have a link to the powered mirror
Yes, it’s an Amazon affiliate link on my webpage: www.humbleroad.tv/amazon-affiliate
👏👏👏👏👏👏
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Can PEX A not take crimp rings also? So you can just use a PEX B coupling with crimps to connect A to B?
I have a sink install on my list this summer. What brand and size is your sink?
Each situation is different. You need to measure the available area you have.
Is that 3D-printed cover made with PLA, PETG, ABS? Hopefully it's not PLA because it can't tolerate heat very much.
ASA
@@ronbrand3121 Even better!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great job! How much would you like for your Springdale?
Once I’m finished putting in all my upgrades, I will list it for sale
@@HumbleRoad Thank you!
Beware of whimpy leaf springs on these trailers! Catherine Gregory had to have them replaced after one side completely broke in half.
Noted.
Me too destroyed my axle
