  • After a brief hiatus we're back in the campervan finishing the rear and side loading doors. We'll talk you through our thought processes and provide tips and tricks on getting a great finish with no prior experience. Our solution to finishing our campervan doors is a cheap, cheerful and easy solution for achieving an awesome looking finish!
    Below are some of the links* for bits and bobs we have used in this video.

    So WHO are WE? We’re Scarlett, Craig and Merlin and along with Helsing, form the PILGRIM PODS!
    If you enjoy this video why not check out some of our other content? Delve even deeper into our channel; we thought we’d create a series of vlogs chronicling the conversion of our old panel van HELSING (did you see what we did there?) into a weekend warrioring campervan for ADVENTURING and EXPLORING in the UK.
    Each vlog will cover a stage or smaller element of our campervan build, showing our ideas put into action and highlighting our SUCCESSES and FAILURES along the way. With no previous experience this may make for an interesting journey! Our plan is to convert a cheap van on a small budget without cutting corners and at the end, have a campervan to be proud of. We’re hoping you’d like to join us for this journey and that you find our uploads ENTERTAINING and even, INFORMATIVE!

    Morning Craig. How are things in your part of the world these days? Hope you hare feeling better. I understand you have been under the weather recently and with change of work. That's enough to contend with. Hope you and your family are well. Looking forward to your next visit here.

      Hi mate, things are good and hope they are with you too. Had a lot to keep me occupied recently so haven't been near the van. It will be finished come March though! Just need to get my mojo back to finish off the top cupboards and then on to the kitchenette unit. Other than that it's little odds and ends. Turning out better than I expected! 😄

    Going great guns such simple concepts that work would like to know what you have decided on seating kitchen and if you will include a shower and loo or not in the MWB van os the colour is great 👍

    • @PilgrimPods
      @PilgrimPods  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Being built mainly for weekends away it won't have a shower room but the toilet will be housed in a cupboard. Swivel seats will likely have a small table each for eating at and the van will have a kitchenette on one side and a sink unit on the other. 😊

    @JakeRigby1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Good to see you back. Just a tip though, if your rear door carpet goes under the rubber seal, it might start to wick water through into the van when it rains. You could run a sharp knife around the inside of the seal with the door closed and remove the excess to ensure the carpet doesn't interfere with the seal.

    • @PilgrimPods
      @PilgrimPods  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Cheers Jake! Thanks for the tip. I've been out in the van to check everything is still watertight and all seems ok but I'll definitely keep your advice in mind should an issue occur. 😊👍
