I really appreciate the card at the beginning of these videos with the price/tools/difficulty info.
Thanks Erika 😁👍
Bloody brilliant job Lou. Handy hint for the less experienced, as well as using the tape and pilot hole, use a centre punch or even a small sharp nail or screw to mark the hole. It helps to stop the drill bit wandering. You can make a disposable punch by filing a nail sharp heating it to red hot then plunging it into cold water to harden it (if water doesn't work try oil). It won't last long but who cares, it's a nail. Oh and always wear eye protection
Thanks for the extra tips for people 😁👍
@@campervibe You are more than welcome, anything for my fave TH-cam couple (don't suppose you are up for adoption?). I hope it didn't sound too mansplainey. Fourty years of making and fixing sh*t and you pick up a few things. Sadly, now if you try to help and you were born with dangley bits you often get a mouthful in return. Absolutely loving your channel and would love to hear more about how you built your very impressive skill set please. Give AJ a fuss for me 😉❤
Just getting around to watching your van build. Great job!
Thanks Amber 🙂
@@campervibe you’re welcome! 🙂
OMG just discovered your channel, I absolutely love ya !! My dream is to live the van life! Your sense of humour is really good too !! Gonna binge watch the videos ! x
😆😆 thanks, glad you're enjoying them 😀
@@campervibe ❤
I am very afraid the sheetmetals of vans are so thin that at least for my weight some additional bracing might be needed. The van roofs are also made of surprisingly thin material, have to careful while wash. But solid roof racks are available, I quess. But for you two, no problems. Thanks for the video.
Definitely something out there for you 🙂
Just a tip, get yourself a step drill bit.
It enables you to enlarge a hole easily leaving a clean hole without burrs 👍
Thanks, I've got some at the workshop just couldn't be bothered to go back and get them. This is the trouble with doing it in the street, I can only keep limited tools in our hallway lol and don't like leaving them in the van. 👍😁
@@campervibe I'm not surprised you have them you seem to have most tools.
It's unusual to see a woman who is as talented in practical skills but its cool to see.
I've been converting my van for a year as I not in any hurry. I'm really enjoying the process of building it as I refine the design as I go ☺
@@marks-0-0 thanks Mark 👍 I wish I had the patience to do mine slower but we just want it done so we can get away lol! Hope your build is going well, I too enjoy the process, I should imagine I'll be quite bored when it's finished lol!
@@campervibe thanks, mine is about 80% done.
What I did was fit the windows, insulated and fitted the floor straight away. Then I was able to use it for weekends albeit as a shell.
I took my time as people often say they want to change something and I wasn't 100% sure about my layout at the start.
Keep up the good work, you're both well worth a sub 👍
@@marks-0-0 thank you, and thanks for watching 👍😁
I know I ask loads of questions and you're very helpful, can I ask when the ladder is fitted how is it with the rubbers on the back bumper , i like to reverse backed up to a wall and sometimes my rubbers touch the wall which is all good and no issue , would the ladder hit the wall and bend my doors ? This wouldn't stop me getting one but I'd like to know if possible and I'd have to be extra careful cheers
I'm not sure I know which rubbers you mean but our ladder does extend a bit further than the length of our van, so in our case we need to park a little further forward.
Louise (Luisa in Spanish) that Cap... Is The Cap!
😂😁👍
Cireon 😉
Yes 👍
Did this affect the parking sensors. I'm looking at getting one. Thanks
I was worried about that but where I've put it it has no effect on the parking sensors at all. The sensor if I remember is in the black plastic bumper so just make sure your ladder misses that I guess.
@@campervibe ok. Thanks for reply
Now that you've had your ladder for a while, would you buy it again? 🐻 Have you had any problems?
Hi there, yeh personally I would, it's handy for going up to clean the solar panel. If you have the space and don't mind the faff then you could carry one of those telescopic ones, would do the same job and less of a security risk, we've had no problems so far tho 😁
@@campervibe thanks for the reply. We're looking to mount one on out little Vivaro (Vannah Montana). We're really just using it to mount an exterior storage box on because we're short on space. Thanks. Look forward to your next video. Give AJ a kiss from us please xx 🐻
Enjoying watching your vlogs from the start .. 😁
Good video but remember to film in landscape :D
🤣🤣 Thanks, we soon realised that, watch the rest of our videos and you'll see we made the Change lol 👍
Do you have a link so we can order the same ladder please??
Hi, I'm pretty sure it was this one, shop around though as I don't think we paid anywhere near this much, it was nearly a year ago tho www.vanarack.com/shop/van-accessories/van-rear-door-ladders/citroen-van-rear-door-ladders/citroen-relay-2006-van-rear-door-ladders/citroen-relay-2006-on-l2-h2-twin-door-van-rear-door-ladders
So if Emily is the office worker, how come Louise had to do the filing?
🤣🤣 It took me a second then but that's a good one lol! Thanks for watching 😁👍
@@campervibe I'm glad I found you, I'm about to chop holes in my ducato once we're allowed out to play :-)
@@jerrycann9072 good luck with your build, chopping the holes is scary but it seems so easy after it's done lol! Great choice of van, so much space 😁👍
@@campervibe Thank you, I'll be leaning into you guys for inspiration - I reckon you're at the sweet spot between Greg Virgoe and Mevi ;-)
As to space - I hope so. I've got Nessa, a Jack Russell/Jack Daniels cross who thinks sitting still is for losers!
@@jerrycann9072 no problem, and thank you very much. We have a dog much like that too 😁 good luck with it 😁👍
Eye protection needed. Especially when you are drilling higher than your head and looking up...
Oh yes indeed
