Do you have a carbon monoxide detector fitted? The flames on the cooker were yellow which suggests incomplete combustion and a risk of CO being produced. If you are sleeping in there with your family it could be the best £15 investment you ever make. It's not called the silent killer for no good reason!
PLEASE READ !!! As a registered gas installer I can say 100% that flame has incomplete combustion and is classed as immediately dangerous!!! Do not use the gas hob until it has been inspected, its likely the wrong injector has been fitted.

I got the worx hoover body for about £70 it’s really good shares the batteries from my hydro shot also amazing, I also got a new Vauxhall combo just over a year ago it’s basically a bike garage to and from work vehicle I had it boarded out, block pod made a fork mount rail to fit my lashing point centres with a front wheel holder and I made spare wheel holder for my van rather than buying a cage that holds a spare wheel under the van, I don’t think I’ll go back to a car now vans are way more fun if you can get one with all the comfort stuff in the front air conditioning and a nice console they don’t feel much different to driving a car.
My parents took my brother and I around Europe in a VW Combivan for 18 months in 1969 (I was 7-8 years old) ! I slept in the pop-up roof 'tent' and loved it even in winter in Scandinavia and Eastern Europe. Best experience ever...I've travelled a lot ever after, but nothing beat the family adventuring together. Enjoy it together for aa long as you can.
I wasn’t gonna post a comment. Like many of us, we don’t ever bother. But I’ve come back specially, credit where credit’s due and all that👍 I’m sure I’m one of many that watch this video series and loved every second! Blake and Martyn’s chemistry on camera is fantastic it’s just so genuine and honest. There’s something quite humbling when mistakes are made and shown in a build series as it actually connects with the viewer. Kudos to all the guys involved with this from Blake & Martyn to camera men and editors. Thanks for the laughs… right I’m off better get cracking on my own van if I want it done for summer! See you at the trail head! ✌️ GMBN for the win 👌
Looks sweet! One thing every adventure van with a kitchen needs is the ability to swivel the cook top out the door because some smells you can't ever get out of your camper or van. Almost anything you fry will in no time permeate your soft materials. External cook top in a slide out cubby is a good option. They have them on some pull campers.
Absolutely wicked build Blake and Martyn 🤘👊 Yes people have said oh it's taking too long to build etc 🙁 Good things come to people that wait and you can't rush a job like this If you had cut corners you'd regret it now. Van looks awesome and Blake you've got lots of memories to come from the adventures to come in it. Awesome series and content #GMBN 🤘
Absolutely outstanding, what an amazing build. Perfect for purpose and with foresight built in. Well done to everyone involved and congratulations to the Blake and the Samson family on there new adventure vehicle.
Hey Benjy, thanks for the kind words, awesome comment!! We're looking forward to seeing what the Samson family get up to in this incredible off-grid camper van!
This is one of those videos where I really need the ability to like it twice. Filled with positivity and the build is brilliant. Having watch 100+ hrs of van life build content this van was really well designed. Everything from the layout, to fitting Blakes specific needs, to the electrical, and even has space for the kettle (it wouldn't have been complete without it. Kudos - and I hope this van gets used heavily! be well
Love the build. Love the series. May I suggest doing something about all the sharp corners. Sharp corners in tight spaces aren't the best combination. At least get some rubber corner protectors so you and specially the kids won't get hurt. Keep up the good work and I am so glad that you look so happy with your new adventure rig.
So happy you finish this. As a lifelong Car Guy I would say that at least half of the projects that get started never get finished for all the reasons you experienced yourself. All of us need a Martin in our lives to help push us over the top or lend a hand when our skills run out. It's a hell of an achievement even with a budget and a camera crew. Anyone who's done an intense build knows that first-hand. Congratulations, those boys are going to love that thing even more than you and your wife!!!

RAL 250 60 10 is gonna stay rent free in my mind for a while. XD
YESSS BLAKE! Video Series of the Year all day long 🤘🤘🤘
Thanks for the support, Miles! We're stoked you enjoyed the series! 👊
It might have been a wait, but by god was it worth the wait. What a brilliant build and series. Martyn is insanely skilled, and what a great bloke
We're glad it's finished and so happy for Blake! This is one EPIC off-grid van that's for sure.
Building projects with mates is epic
Thanks for the beautiful shout out! 😁

Thank you! You spend more time in your van than with me on the trails!!! Hats off to you and gamers!!
Finally!!! Congratulations! Buying a camper van like that here in the US is about $180K. Good job!
One word for it; Awesome!!! Enjoy......
I've been looking forward to this for so long. Well done Blake on the build and to Martyn as well. Job fellas 👍
Glad you enjoyed it! We couldn't agree more! Thanks for the support! 👊
That's the happiest van in the world!😀

We're so stoked to be able to show you the complete van! We're so glad you loved the series! Safe riding! 🤘
i was just thinking about how lucky these guys are to have something like this as a job. living the dream fellas… cheers!
You could have made twice as many videos about this build. It was really interesting.
This is an absolut dream! Happy for you and your family. Hope you share some of your awesom adventures with the van with us.
phenominal this is! outrageous the amount of work that went into it
Awesome to bump into you today bud and for giving us a mini tour of the wicked machine. Looks even more epic seeing it in the flesh.

The van looks great well done all.
Thanks very much, we're stoked you enjoyed!
Can't wait to see the van out on some adventures!
Holy Crap! You could write a book about that!
That camper is what dreams are made of.
Welcome back you beautiful... van!

Had the opportunity to meet Blake in Bath. Well worth the wait for this reveal. The van looks fantastic. Now onto some camping videos 😁
Nice one!
Fantastic looking van, can't wait to see you on your adventures, 🤘👏
Absolutely brilliant! And yes, we have all been waiting for this. Well done.
Respect to Blake and Martyn for an incredible build! It take skill but also balls to take up on this kind of project! Otsukare Sama!
They both smashed this build! We're so stoked with the final product! The van is a beast! 🔥
@@gmbn Pls read about de carbon monoxide detector and confirm blake has adressed this issue :)
It looks amazing. True craftsmanship.

We're glad you dropped in to comment! Great to hear, thankyou!
awesome m8, now let's hope we get to see you travel to some crazy places to mountain bike.
Been waiting so long for this video. Great job Blake.
A bathroom is a must for me. Nice van.
Agree, especially for mountain biking, or any outdoor sports.

That is one SICK ASS BUILD!!!! Bruhhhh, phenomenal job bumper to bumper 😎👍🏼👍🏼
That is a really impressive van. Well done.
What an amazing palace on wheels! With a guest house on the roof! Been an awesome series! Congratulations Blake! Woo!🤘
Excellent series of van build videos, the end result is amazing...happy days indeed!
Glad you enjoyed it Frank!
VANTASTIC!
That's probably the best mtb van I have seen. Great job👏👏👏👏🤟🤟🤟
Tho, yeh, sort out that gas stove... That's not right... And maybe lethal!
Heap loads of awesomeness!! 😎🤘
Really nice van. Have fun
What a sweet build! I’d loved watching every song of this project from the very beginning! Enjoy and ride on! Cheers
Thanks for sticking with us until the final episode Chris! Hope it was worth the wait 👍
I sure do hope you put some adventures with this van and the family on your TH-cam channel . Something like the old bikes with bikes videos
Mission Accomplished Blake 😁😁😁😁😁 Van By Blake Build
✅
Honestly Blake builds are by far my favourite things. Love your enthusiasm man keep them coming!
Gmbn back with an amazing banger! I love watching these!!
Always! 😉 Thanks for watching! 🤘
Great bespoke van, love it. Love the colour RAL250-60-10 (I think)…When is the competition to win it Blake.? 😉 😝😝😝
What a crackin piece of kit! Congrats Blake, can’t wait to see all the adventures with it.
Wow Blake, she is a beaut! Can't wait to see what adventures you get into next!
The interior is so elegant, nice work! 👏 The paint job is amazing too. 😍
Thanks so much! 😊
Wow what a build. I could only dream of a build like that. Absolutely awesome.
Carry an induction hob..when you hook up to 240v. will save on gas ..plus you can use it outside in warmer weather ...
Congratulations! This for sure is a labor of love.
Buy a rear sway bar or sumo bumpers for that heavy roof. Be mindful of how much weight you have up there and does it exceed ford's uplifter capacity?
This is insane Blake 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾👌👌👍
so gladd the can is finished. more riding videos please
Epic work Blake!
What a build 💪🏼

Great project and even better end result
Epic! Best van build series on TH-cam. Now time to enjoy all the hard work! 🤙
Glad you enjoyed it Colin! Yep, now to enjoy the rig!

This is totally a sick camper bike's van!
best van build series!!! Congrats Blake!
Awesome iv watched this since you started. Wish I had the workshop to build my own. Enjoy Blake
Love the build. Love the series.
May I suggest doing something about all the sharp corners.
Sharp corners in tight spaces aren't the best combination.
At least get some rubber corner protectors so you and specially the kids won't get hurt.
Keep up the good work and I am so glad that you look so happy with your new adventure rig.
