I honestly don’t know how you’ve survived without a cordless soldering iron, Jess he’s just thinking about how to make your life easier, keep up the good work!
@@projectzip i bought the Miniware TS80 with extra tips and a grounding(3d printed a case for it with a built in foldable stand and soldering spool as well as type c cable storage) . Got a power bank that can power it thus it is portable.
We made a foil bubble wrap cover to go around our pop top canvas. On the higher parts at the front, we put plastic on the corners to prevent it from sagging, then used the foil tape over it to hold it on. Then, at the back, we had it over lapping with velcro fasteners. It was extremely easy to make. We also put tape on all the edges to prevent it from getting damaged and to make it look nicer, too. It makes a huge difference in the hot or cold. It also gives extra protection from the rain, especially if your bedding is touching the canvas. It's cheap and extremely worthwhile doing it.
Thanks Janine, that’s a great idea I have made a similar thing for our Sainsbury’s van windows for the Arctic and they make a huge difference, even got to play around with a thermal camera and the difference was crazy with them in and not.
@truebluetravellers I absolutely love all the camper conversions you have both done together. Amazing teamwork and the banter you both have with each other is great too. I love this build and can't wait to see this when it's fully finished. 😍
Thanks guys, I think showing us all how long some of these jobs really take was a great idea. Just that one job with two people one week. Thanks for another great video and looking forward to next week 👋🏻👋🏻😂😂🇦🇺Jon
Just spotted a Pinzgauer 6 x 6 in the wild , on Knepp Castle Estate in the depths of the Sussex countryside . It has been converted into an open sided ' safari ' style bus , to take people around the re-wilding on the estate.
that was brilliant, just to let you know, that the old PIR boards if you fibreglass them they are lighter than wood, and you can make walls out of it, just saying, cos there are people out there who have made van furniture out of it. Thanks for the Saturday Sparkle, , xx
Pinzgauer is Red, Travellers are Blue, Great video as always, and great TTT too! Keep up the great work guys. Loving the content and can't wait for next week. CT Cam - fantastic idea sir, maybe a postman cam for Jess hahaha.
Another great ep. One tip for the safety wires, if you twist them before attaching, they fold themselves up when closing the door. Re compressor, I switched from built in compressors to 18v (in my case the Makita) and never looked back. It's so convenient, i get depressed when I run out of tyres to inflate. The one downside, you end up on a rampage and checking everyone elsed tyre pressures too 😂
@@truebluetravellers Yeah very good. Will have had it two years this winter. Was deflating and reinflating my D3 tyres daily for work for several weeks last winter, all four from 12 to 30 psi. Has no issues on my trailer tyres up to 95psi. Can only speak for the Makita DMP181Z but it's been worked very hard. Obviously works best on a 5+ah batt. Edit: GBOKFTW
Without doubt the most entertaining video you've done for a short while, I'm beaming from ear to ear, and what you both accomplish is incredible and inspirational, thank you again and again ❤
You’re doing such a good job of this and your previous conversions. With all those tools and skills I’m surprised you aren’t undertaking custom builds to help fund your travels. Great videos
Thanks very much, I think if the TH-cam thing ever dies then I’ll do van conversions as a job, but not made to order, more like I’d build them and then just sell them as they are 😊👍
Job well done with the insulation and not killing each other, she looking good and looking forward to the cabinet making coming soon. Have to agree with Jon, I have 2 gas soldering irons and they are a pain so might also get a cordless one👊🏼 Two goldfish in a tank and one said to the other “who’s driving this thing”😂😂
I was working on the surprise 125cc for my wife yesterday and I said without thinking that’s a lovely bit of kit for the workshop both of u inspire me! Keep up the good work
One of the unmentioned added elements of your channel in my opinion is the nice sense of community you created with your subscribers. I love how people are suggesting jokes and puns and poems (not so much the "cam", but that's me). Well done you and thanks for the great entertainment. ❤😘
Thanks very much, we have had some great ideas off people to be honest, some we would never even think of, and also nice to get to know the people watching 😊💙
Had to take a break from this weeks video. A “chewed wasp” literally had me crying with laughter. Not heard that variant before, and the reaction from Jess was priceless 😂
Brilliant video again as usual and I love the soldering iron trick .I've done a few vans over the years and that is a trick I will definitely use .keep up the good work
Great video guys, Big Red looks more amazing each week. This is the only entertainment I'm getting at the moment from hospital bed after suffering a mini stroke on Friday. Can't wait for next weeks video. God Bless ❤
Hi guys, superp episode! One point though. You should consider removing the insulation in the doors. Water always gets through the locks and handls on car doors. Thats the reason automotive doors alway have water exit point at the bottom. The isolation will obstruct the controlled waterflow inside the door and probably saturate and your door will badly corrode in no time.
Saturday morning has started off good again! You guys are cracking it. I saw your "Q&A video" the other day where you explained how you ended up doing these video's. I think you are doing an amazing job. The video's are entertaining, informative, funny and very well balanced. Please build another vehicle again when this one's finished because I'm gonna miss the video's!
I was just about to go to the Dragons den with my soldering iron trick ..... Dam cats out the bag 😂 Great video as always and thank you for the shout out 💪
Shout out to Bertie for his ‘lovely bit of kit for the workshop’ 👏. Big Red is certainly coming along well. I’m sure a frustrating week for you guys with all the insulation and sound deadening, but she’s looking good. Jon - it has to be 14 right?? 😂 Jess - awesome carpeting skills and best butt there is 😉 Love seeing how both your skill sets evolve over the builds. And top tip on the soldering iron. Awesome channel 🎉
keep those jokes coming, these videos are much appreicated before I start work and is a much needed relief. Jess, your insulation skills are top notch.
She loves it when jess tells jon off she laughs and says its like mummy and you in trouble...... so jon i feel you brother 😂😂😂😂@@truebluetravellers thanks for the grate videos guys we always look forward to a new vid.
You two just crack me up! Jess we love your “skills” and John we love your jokes!! You put so much into your videos,,,, major props on this weeks music!!!! Awesome!
Back to normal Sat routine for me with another brilliant video to start the day. Superb progress and your time spent soundproofing etc will pay off big time. Banter and jokes, as always top notch…..😂😂
The latest Insulation of your conversion of Big Red was truly riveting. I'll get my coat! Neat tip with the soldering iron with the Carpet, seals the edges as you go what is not to like, as it will stop it from becoming tatty in high wear areas where the carpet is visible. I was looking at that Bosch trim router yesterday as I had a door to hang and I killed my trusty Makita Trim Router. So ended up using my Festool 1400 router instead. Massive over kill, but save a good few quid too. My look at the Bosch once I get round to replacing the doors upstairs.
@@truebluetravellers The one I was hanging resulted in me removing the door frame and modifying it to fit the door as it was so out of square, one side higher than the other. So I now have a door fitting how I am happy I just need to make up some packers to fill the gaps where I will be re screwing through to anchor it. todays crap weather stopped me from getting one with it.
It's getting exciting now! The inside is well under way and that soldering iron trick is great for the carpet cutting! 😀 I'm interested in seeing the solar panels all done as I was going to have a flexi one on my van but heard the stories of overheating problems which put me off a bit 😅 I always tell a lot of dad jokes and I don't even have kids 😂 heres one for you, I'm thinking of starting a new career making mirrors, It's something I can see myself doing! 🤣
not a joke, more of a saying: He who runs behind a Pinzgauer is going to get Exhausted. He who runs in from of a Pinzgauer will get Tired. Thanks for the videos, a fellow aussie, but living in Russia.

When a man needs a tool, the man gets the tool. Can't do the job without it! Great humour, once again, Rig Bed, nope sorry Big Red's coming on strong, brilliant bit of laughter, on a Saturday evening! 😂
We really need to get back to the time when we weren't worried about offending people. The joke was class Jon!! I think I did a Jess snort when I laughed 😂😂🐷🐷. You both did a cracking job on that insulation. Show them your guns Jess if they start!! 💪💪
@@truebluetravellerspretty much if you want your channel to grow beyond where it is… I think you will have to tame the questionable cringe. There are always people that will tell you you’re great and funny, but lots of peeps like Donald Trump too. Personally it’s my least fav part of your channel, and the ragging of Jess. But I do love the travels and the builds so I suffer through it. It’s a nah from me, don’t know why you feel you have to include it.
@@joannabrown2995 the thing is Joanne some of the things you like other people don’t, so for example the travel, someone said they don’t like the fact that we travel and would prefer us just to do the builds🤷♂️, some people get offended because we eat meat, there will always be something that someone doesn’t like, all we can do is just be our selves and have some fun along the way 👍

Embedding cool ideas from your audience just makes for a real interactive treat each week 😀. Legends 😎🙌🙌
My highlight of the week is here 🎉🎉🎉🎉. John, I sooo want to share your joke on the old Arsebook, but that will likely get me another ban.... oh well, I need a break from social media anyway. 😂😂. That had me crying so much tears went in my coffee. When Jess finds out you told us during her pee break, she might use those mighty guns to deliver you a knuckle sandwich, but all worth it. 😂😂 ❤
The fire truck is looking awesome! Amazing carpeting Jess and I love the soldering iron hack! Thanks again for kicking of my Saturday with laughter and positivity 👍❤️
G'day from the Aussie who lives in France,yet another great little video,that soldering iron hack was brilliant, didn't realise the work involved to fit out the interior of your camper,let alone the solar panels,you guys know your stuff. You two are awesome.
Loved the joke Jon, but i still think the other week's joke was the best ever! i even told my 81 year mum and she loved it! lol The fire truck looks amazing! you two are so talented. Have a great week both of you xx
No, Jess, don't let him get no.14. I'm married to David, a retired mechanical engineer. We're trying to downsize, and it'll take 3 years to clear his "treasure" from the workshop, metal shed and garage. Send help, please. 😂 Love your vlogs from a fellow "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em". ❤
Ah it's Saturday morning, it's 7am it's time for Tea, Toast, True Blue Travellers, Triple T and some "nice bits of kit for the workshop". Sorry General I even love Jon's jokes! Fair play Jess you're a "nice bit of kit for the workshop" you've got some skills Lady!
Another amazing video of big red 😊looking great from you both what you have done. Been learning so much from you both. Thanks for all the laughs and giggles 💙
Thanks Andrew, it is awesome you are able to live your passion. I always say nothing is free... There is always a cost be it money, time, opinion, watching ads, honesty, integrity, respect, brand name growth or loss, reputation and so many more there is always a cost in life. Support the little guy I try. Sometimes the cost is much much, however you get what you pay for. Cheers.
Wow everything is coming together nicely, some great tips for doing the boarding of the floor and the carpeting 👍TTT was very impressive 😂 looking forward to the next installment 👍🫶🍻
Insulating and putting in the sub flooring isn’t the fun or exciting part of the build but it’s so important as you well know. Keeping the heat out or depending on the situation, in the vehicle as well as noise insulation can be a huge deal. If the vehicle is loud, creaky and uncomfortable then it doesn’t matter how good it looks. For the record it looks absolutely sick. 👍I’m interested to see what additional insulation you put around the engine bay to ward off the heat and noise. (Beyond what you’ve shown). Maybe a custom but easily removable console lined with additional insulation. With compartments and drink holders it would be a cool addition. I always look forward to your next vlog and haven’t yet been disappointed. Cheers from Florida 🌴🌴🌴☀️
Congrats on the production guys. Looks like a tough week for you both but you still made it hugely entertaining. TBT watched now for a walk in the rain 🦮
Hello John & Jess , what a great show of skills, banter with lots of laughter. Though the sound proofing of the interior has taken a lot of effort and time, it will be so well worth it! Best wishes from Lincolnshire
With the polycarbonate sheet for the solar panels, if it does still overheat you could put a line of laptop fans along one end to blow air through the channels.

😂😂😂😂 yep definitely worth the 2 black eyes 😂👍💙
Great job on the video folks! Thanks for making it.

Another Saturday morning, waiting for the wife to make herself presentable and watching TBT 🎉

Thanks for watching 😊👍
@@Trippenzoid 😂😂😂 I feel for you mate, I have that 24/7 with Jess 🤷♂️
😂
Well, I would rather tourists speak to me in English than trying to speak Norwegian.
This build is really quite amazing. The quality and workmanship is on another level. Love what the both of you are doing. T
Thanks Terry it’s finally coming together now 😊
The rivet gun has shown itself to be such a useful purchase, I think it has allowed you at least 5 more tool purchases.
😂😂😂 honestly one of the best tools in the shop now 👌👍
Jess we like the video with the b side and like John would say i have a nice tool for that 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂👍
The fire truck is looking awesome! Amazing carpeting Jess and I love the soldering iron hack!

@@DronePilot23 😂😂 people will skip that more than my tripple t 😂
@@truebluetravellers Just a fyi I never skip any part of your video.
I just watched all the other built videos and was sad there weren't any new ones. I got so excited when this one showed up!
Ah thanks very much for the support 😊
Looking great 👍
Thanks mate 👍
No, Jess, don't let him get no.14. I'm married to David, a retired mechanical engineer. We're trying to downsize, and it'll take 3 years to clear his "treasure" from the workshop, metal shed and garage. Send help, please. 😂 Love your vlogs from a fellow "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em". ❤
😂😂😂 David sounds like my kinda man 😂👌👍
Erm... sometimes I'd be willing to let you have him. Xx😂❤
Has to be one of the dopest builds currently on our sunblessed island. Smashed the nockers off it guys!!
😂😂😂 thanks very much 👍
Ah it's Saturday morning, it's 7am it's time for Tea, Toast, True Blue Travellers, Triple T and some "nice bits of kit for the workshop". Sorry General I even love Jon's jokes! Fair play Jess you're a "nice bit of kit for the workshop" you've got some skills Lady!
😂😂😂😂 I’ll take that one, 😂😂 thanks very much 💙
Another amazing video of big red 😊looking great from you both what you have done. Been learning so much from you both. Thanks for all the laughs and giggles 💙
That’s so lovely of you to say thank you and so great to hear it’s helpful 💙
Of all the tools on this channel…. That vertical panel saw is SUCH a flex.
How on earth John managed to get that one past I have absolutely no idea 😂
I believe that saw was discussed during the Sainsburys van build. 😉
😂😂😂😂 I had to get that one in early otherwise I don’t think I would have 😂😂👍
You two are a brilliant bit of kit for the workshop. Thank you and God bless you and your family and America 🇺🇸
Thanks very much 👍
Thanks Andrew, it is awesome you are able to live your passion.
I always say nothing is free... There is always a cost be it money, time, opinion, watching ads, honesty, integrity, respect, brand name growth or loss, reputation and so many more there is always a cost in life.
Support the little guy I try. Sometimes the cost is much much, however you get what you pay for.
Cheers.
Saturday started off good when watching you guys
Thanks very much 😊👍
its been three months already?! my lord, time flies when you're listening to constant dad jokes hahaha
😂😂😂 pmsl
Wow everything is coming together nicely, some great tips for doing the boarding of the floor and the carpeting 👍TTT was very impressive 😂 looking forward to the next installment 👍🫶🍻
Thanks Matt 😊👍💙
you pair are off the chart, keep up the great videos.
Thanks 😊😊
Beautiful work
Thanks 👍
Thanks!
Thank you ever so much for this it’s so kind of you 💙💙 and very generous we really appreciate it 😘
@@truebluetravellers You're more than welcome, it's well worth it for the laughs and seeing the incredible build!
Insulating and putting in the sub flooring isn’t the fun or exciting part of the build but it’s so important as you well know. Keeping the heat out or depending on the situation, in the vehicle as well as noise insulation can be a huge deal. If the vehicle is loud, creaky and uncomfortable then it doesn’t matter how good it looks. For the record it looks absolutely sick. 👍I’m interested to see what additional insulation you put around the engine bay to ward off the heat and noise. (Beyond what you’ve shown). Maybe a custom but easily removable console lined with additional insulation. With compartments and drink holders it would be a cool addition. I always look forward to your next vlog and haven’t yet been disappointed. Cheers from Florida 🌴🌴🌴☀️
Thanks very much Jim, yeah hoping the biggest difference is with the noise, just need to work out how to give it some more ponies now
Congrats on the production guys. Looks like a tough week for you both but you still made it hugely entertaining. TBT watched now for a walk in the rain 🦮
😂😂😂 thanks mate give the pup a pat from us 😊👍
That was my poem 😁
😂😂 was a belter 😂👍
Hello John & Jess , what a great show of skills, banter with lots of laughter. Though the sound proofing of the interior has taken a lot of effort and time, it will be so well worth it! Best wishes from Lincolnshire
Thanks John, definitely mate, hopefully we won’t need ear defenders any more when driving 😂
👍🏼best video to date 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼thank you
Thanks mate 👍
Love it guys! This is the first TH-cam video I've watched in my truck conversation here in Aus!
Thanks very much, what have you got ?
With the polycarbonate sheet for the solar panels, if it does still overheat you could put a line of laptop fans along one end to blow air through the channels.
Great idea that 👍
I always enjoy your episodes, they never fail to bring a smile to my face. 😉😊👍
Thanks mate 😊👍👍
