    I love you and your videos. You show it how its is and not the Instagram bullsh*t. You show the good, the bad and everything in between. You have my respect and appreciation for that, thank you.

    I am so incredibly proud of you for allowing yourself to be vulnerable to an often harsh and unforgiving platform. You've given me ideas and inspiration for my own temporary build in my old Durango! Thank you for being an inspiration ❤

    I dont really see anything you are doing wrong. The best way to learn i find is by doing it. Keep up the awesome work!

    “Professionals”, like me, started off just like you and you seem to be doing it the exact way a professional would for hard custom cuts like that. Cardboard templates and just keep trimming and checking your work til you like it. Thanks for inspiring me to convert my Tahoe into a comfortable hunting rig.

    I’m in the process of coming up with a plan or layout I should say for my Grand Cherokee. I love watching your videos because I’m in the same boat. You should absolutely be very proud of yourself and what you have accomplished. I think it looks great so far!!

    Impressive that you were strong enough to completely tear apart that suv and build
    What you did. Most people would have got someone else to do it, and you jumped right in, and tried and tried. Good for you! Nice channel

    "The kitchen cabinet and I needed some time apart" killed me 😂. Not to laugh at the frustration, because I built out my subaru outback and 1000% have been there. Just recently came across your channel, and you're a gem in a land of boring, cookie cutter people. Keep up the great content!

    Thank you so much for posting the good, the bad, AND the ugly while you figured out this build. You're inspiring and saving someone some headaches with their own builds. I see a lot of videos just showing the pretty (finished) parts and, while it can be helpful...I don't think it's nearly as informative as seeing "what not to do" as well. ;) Thanks for doing the hard work for us. LOL!

    Well this was a DELIGHTFUL vid. I've been following your journey because I'm considering doing something similar and have NO IDEA what I'm doing. But I'm not a complete cluck. Medium cluck. However...CAPABLE. Like you! Time to make some new brain wrinkles. Thanks for being brave and sharing. It's empowering!

    So I’m in the process of turning my trailblazer into a camper , I like the cabinets, what size wood did you use , plywood ?

      @MeganClaarke  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      1/2" birch plywood. I might've benefitted from some 3/4"... but it worked!

      @@debpadilla7242 Well, I decided to use 1/2" to save on cost and weight which was valuable. The difficulty with this thickness is it is the minimum viable thickness when using pocket hole screws. Perhaps if I were more experienced using pocket hole joinery, 1/2" would be fine but there was less room for error for me!
