    I continue to be impressed with how much complicated work you’re able to do on the van that I can’t even imagine being able to start doing. I know you watch a lot of TH-cam tutorials about things, but even so I’m sure I personally would be way over my head trying to do what you’re doing. And yes, the progress is getting to be quite noticeable.

    I am cabinet maker and sprayer, you need to put knotting on all the knots before you prime them otherwise they will bleed through within no time.

    I really felt nervous as Nick turned the lights on for the first time. I loved seeing how happy he looked when it all worked perfectly, you two are a formidable team. Love it . Thank you for such good Sunday night entertainment when there’s nothing on the tv ❤

    loving the build so far,a top tip though....always switch off the main power source,be it 12v or 240v when messing with any electrics. keep it up chaps

    My husband is a commercial auto electrician and part of his job is to install lights, fridges and microwaves into lorries. All the wiring looms he has to put behind dashboards makes my mind boggle. He has also worked on sophisticated horse boxes for polo ponies including electric showers 😮

    Be careful with the battery leads Nick. At 37:30 you basically had 2 live battery terminals in one hand with no fuse. If they had arced, you could have got serious burns and/or started a fire.

    We used wood like your cladding and made the massive mistake of not putting an under coat on unfortunately the knots leak and they end up showing through the paint 8 years later and many coats and it still ends up showing through

    If you like the Yorkshire soap company check out 2 other shops in their group, the imagitarium and the society of alchemists both in York, blackened fig in the society of alchemists is amazing, shop is on the shambles.
