Brilliant as usual Carl, but we don’t see enough of you. More please 🙏
Absolutely. A nude video would be good.
He’s off the grid
I read the entire Ryan’s th-cam.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 Plans and was able to make a shed plan. Using Ryan’s Shed Plans alone, the shed itself is great. Where I wish I knew more is with respect to ground preparation and foundations. Maybe that's beyond the scope of Ryan’s Shed Plans.
Extraordinary levels of craftsmanship, not to mention videography and storytelling. Magnificent
A dream come true. Good to be back.
Thanks to Jackery for helping to make this happen.

I’d love to get one, do you have shipping availability to here in the US?
@@connorbailey4290Jackery is a US company. Would recommend them, had great customer service when I had to return one from Arctic Canada 2-3 years ago.
Getting ready for more resto on the property 👍
The only thing I would add would be rubber washers on the underside nand some rustoleum like paint around the holes to prevent rust. LOVE the Defender, we cant get that model in the states, they were cut off in 93. Now all we can get is after market restores or the WAY over priced new model. Bouns points for it being a stick shift.
There are very few autos (V8 90's) and it kind of defeats the purpose I reckon.
Check out the Ineos Grenadier.
Very well planned out…good work.
Very cool, my uncle did something similar to his work truck a while ago.
One recommendation : the flap that you need to lift up before pulling out the drawer is superfluous.
You already have your back gate to act as the same thing. So i suggest that you take it out and instead make it part of the drawer itself. That will also allow you to more easily access items in the back of the drawer that you'd normally have to pry in between that door and the drawer.
I considered the option but the high drawer end on a low profile drawer looked a bit off. I get your point tho
agreed
@@carlroge Could the draw flap down out of the way, instead of up?
@@carlroge It would also look better with aluminium like the top. 👍👍
Yeah, that flap is pretty much useless and a hindrance
Carl, I’m always impressed with how well planned out your projects are and this is no exception. You mentioned on Patreon that this was your most expensive project and I assume it’s because the Defender is in good mechanical condition and a relatively recent model. My only suggestion is that you might want to put some removable cling film on the back windows so prospective thieves can’t see into your vehicle when it’s parked (yes, I have a suspicious streak!)
and Apple Tag everything, just in case
Be careful - having tinted windows is a double edged sword, yes it can stop the casual person looking into your vehicle - but thieves will casually smash them to look anyway - and if you've got nothing in there, you've got a smashed window claim on your insurance.
I'm a handyman and occasionally keep tools in my vehicle (Berlingo) and I DO NOT have tinted windows - any prospective thieves can see there's nothing they can easily sell, so they move on.
Having tools in "dewalt" or "Makita" ans ESPECIALLY "Festool" boxes is GUARENTEED to get broken into and stolen. If you have these boxes, remove them.
Have a look into the vehicle smash and grab epidemic in San Francisco - locals have gotten so fed up with having rear TINTED windows smashed DESPITE HAVING NOTHING INSIDE that they have now taken to parking thier cars and LEAVING THE VEHICLE BOOTS OPEN SO THIEVES CAN SEE THEY ARE EMPTY !!!!
I'm not joking.
I strongly advocate AGAINST tinting windows if you can just remove the tools, and there's not enough in there to be a problem.
@@rafezetter8003 Good point. Dirtbags will smash out your windows for the Festool boxes alone…w/o even containing any tools or valuables.
Very nice. Looking forward to seeing what you have planned for that this summer.
That's awesome! Really pro job! My only suggestion would be some sort of straps for the tool boxes and jackery. I've seen people really hurt when stuff Flys around a vehicle in an accident.
Nicely filmed mate and great work
Nice DIY project expertly filmed and edited. The voice off is the best choice for this sort of thing I always think. I'm always impressed by the excellent tools you use and have discovered a few I've not seen before. Jackery must be very pleased with their investment.
I was literally about to ask about the jacket when I saw your PS at the end. As a workwear manufacturer myself, I appreciate the design and functionality. Great looking jacket.
Great idea, well executed. I'm about to do a similar design for a 1st Generation Honda CRV which will continue to serve as a passenger car, but must have a similar, but removable, setup for woodworking tools as this car will sometimes be used to deliver woodworking classes to rural communities. Quite a challenge design-wise but your design has given me some ideas. In your case, the only change I would have made would be to put the back cover hinged so it opens down below the drawer instead of upwards as it is currently. This way it won't hinder access to the back compartment of the drawer.
Or just attach it to the drawer front.
Then if the height of the drawer front was an issue for while it’s open, he could’ve cut it in half horizontally & add a piano hinge so it folds down to get it out of the way.
Also im not a fan of the lockable drawer slides because it adds another thing to do with both hands while trying to get to a tool every time you open it. The soft close runners have a self locking functionality to them because they pull the drawer closed for the first bit. I have them in my work trailer for years & iv never got to the job & the drawers open. Even on unsealed roads.
Great design & execution though. Especially with simple tools
I accidently found your channel and watched whole day. It was 40 years ago we lived in New Jersey, US. We bought the new construction house and a whole lot of things waited for us. Tilling an entryway and finishing a basement, and building a deck. It was so hard but so fun too. Now my loving husband passed and I am back in Korea. I am 70 years old now but I still remember vividly how we installed a closet door in the basement. Thank you so much for the wonderful videos
I travelled around Oz back in early 2000’s in a 60 series Land Cruiser. The early days of duel battery systems in cars. One thing I look at today with lithium iron batteries is wow that would have helped in so many ways.
Lovely job as usual. No sure if you already have one, grab yourself a rail square, track saw becomes a table saw and 90 degree mitre, if not a slower one. I bought one and that thought goes through your head why did I not get one earlier 👍🏻
You are a veritable fount of creative, spatial and useful building, Carl Rogers. If/when there might be updates to your Defender, you'll have worked out the back door panel and " electrical-, camera-and charger bits, too. Glad you and your instructional, amazing, scientifically sound/researched projects/builds documented in videos have once again resurfaced. Stay healthy, safe, warm and moderately productive. These videos, your humor and explication are joys to witness. Almost like being there.😊❤
As a hobbyist woodworker constantly involved with home improvement projects I most value your focus on precision, attention to detail and in the overall quality of craftsmanship, regardless of the project underway. Thank you Carl for posting these wonderful videos.
Beautiful work and attention to detail!
YESSSS. Look forward to watching this tomorrow 🙌🏼
You’re very talented Carl! Love your projects! Can’t wait to see more of your videos. Stay Safe!
In the U.S., when I would go on the road with crafts I made to sell at
a crafts fair in another state, I bought something called Inland Marine
auto insurance. It was in addition to what I had already for auto insurance.
You might want to look into something like this, if for nothing less than peace of mind.
Here in the states, public places near the highway or places that get a lot of daily tourists
attract junkies like flies on poo-poo.
BTW- your video was perfectly done. Very professional. No facial close ups, no stop action talk to the camera shots, everything perfectly filmed, well thought out design. Well done.
🌋
Enjoyed every minute. Provided me with ideas and things to consider for the future. Thanks.
Outstanding! Wicked cool! Nicely done.
Great video! So satisfying watching you plan and execute perfectly those modifications! 🙌
Love all of your videos. I just wish there were more of them
Bravo ! Extremely well done and nice to see. You are truly creative. I love everything you did.
Awesome Carl! Beautiful job and will be so very functional for you, great layout. Love the soft close, they are handy and easy.
What a setup and fantastic workmanship as usual. Another great vid 👌
Wow, incredible craftsmanship 😊
You do beautiful work!!
Slick Rover Carl, slick set up and slick work ethic!
looks great, can't beat a landrover in so many ways! You might find it a good idea to put the sound insulation on the sides and rear door to help quieten the ride a little further. I know someone who lined their rear door with sound and heat insulation and then just covered it with some plywood to make it look tidy, perfectly serviceable!
I love the videos of the works you have done on the defences, please make more, more!!
Cool project. 👍
You know you can just knock out the err, knock outs, on the metal back box for the socket. No need to drill them.
Great work as always. Looking forward to seeing some adventures in the landy.
What a great build. May I suggest you put a couple of magnets in that door at the rear. Then it won't pop open from bumps. BTDT.
Good to see you back, my husband is an engineer and will love watching this. 😊
Beautiful work man!
Wow, that’s really impressive. Awesome job Carl 😊
Nice work Carl, kudos.
Very nice setup Carl, you do some amazing work... Take care my friend...
Very nice work. Great solution to storage needs.
Congratulations, it's a true work of art! Nobody will ever thank you enough for not littering your videos with silly music and corny jokes. You strike a perfect balance between entertainment and pedagogy 👏
Safe travels!
Brilliant the drawer will really shine when you fill up the space on top of the unit!
Very nice setup!
Very nice job as always.
Excellent work as always 👍🏻
Carl, your attention to detail is unmatched ! Keep on keeping on! Hope to see more videos and useful items to buy!
Great video and good ideas on the drawer!
Awesome! I love how you are not hindered by any obstacles and design your way into success. My own garage is literally four times as big as yours. You've inspired me to finish setting up my own shop and get to work on all those projects I've been mulling over for years. Cheers!
Excellent work.superbly executed. 👍👍
Vry functional, I enjoyed watching you building the upgrade.
Great work, as usual!
Great setup!
Awesome job Carl!
Very nice work!
So glad you are back! I love your fine and detailed work! :)
Great to see you back at it! The Defender is looking great! Hope all is well with you and take good care!
Immense satisfaction when you make a place for everything👏🏼
Thank you for sharing
Welcome back! Nice storage area for your Defender!
Thoroughly enjoyed this!
Even a tool box is made to extreme procession....why am I not surprised....hope to see you more often.....ty
Nice job on matching the pattern of the aluminum cover. No detail over looked. I’m so impressed with your skills. Great job.
Outstanding job!!!
Masterfully done!
Great work and great video. I really enjoyed watching!
nicely organized
Well done. Top Notch carpentry and conceptualizing. Also love the Land Rover - fantastic channel altogether - keep 'em coming!
Nice, nice. Pretty nice. Thanks for sharing!
Your craftsmanship is insane. Liked the video, again. Love to see you back at the farm in France.
Clean build mate!
Nice work Carl.
Very nice work.
Nice job Carl, done with the usual Rogers’ attention to detail.
The book match cover is perfect. Still have a load space, too. Nice job.
I found this video without knowing your work.
Really impressive work!
I'm going to see all your videos I guess....
Thanks!
Nice job
Good to see craftsman, young and old
For the draw sliders, you could always have used countersunk bolts just to give you extra peace of mind. Love these types of videos, you get to see everyone's creativity and designs, really interesting! Top job my friend.
Great work Carl. My Father has a 90. That's given me some great ideas. Thanks 👍
I love Defender 90s! Thanks
Carl good to see your video come up. Great project👍👍👍
Nice one Carl 👍🏻
Carl, I did the same sound deadening long ago to a Fiat 128 tin can. It really helped a lot.
Your drawer system looks fabulous! Congrat's.
Really nice job.
Perfect work!!!
Awesome build! Wow! I’d love to do that to my SUV 🚙 ❤
Loving your videos at the minute, look after your health and keep doing what you’re doing! 😊
