Amazing job, loving the attention to detail. The finish is spot on. Can’t wait to see more of what you’ve got planned for this build 👍🏻

Nice one buddy. Loads to come! 👍🏻
It's the first time I have seen someone do as I did when I built mine 3 years ago. Wool insulation, plus material covered pin board with wadding attached. The idea being that my insulation is totally breathable and dried with the diesel heater and vents. Great job..

Great job and looks lovely. bang on with the insulation as well, the closed cell foam will stop alot of the condensation from forming on the ceiling anyway so you are defo on the right track without messing with vapour barriers, to my mind anyhow. Looking forward to see how the build develops.

Totally agree 👍 i have 2 extractor fans and a roof vent, most people oversize a diesel heater anyway, a 5KW is overkill in a van so you have the extra heat capacity to "waste" some evacuating the moisture IMHO

Your videos are all helpful and aside from the GZ Yeti I have also ordered high lockers from Evo Motion for my Sprinter, after watching your videos. The lockers are still on order and I am fitting fixing points into my van. I cannot find any videos on the locker fixing points other than yours. Granted the drawings from Evo show the cross bar where the locker is attached to the roof, but I was wondering about any fixing points on the wall. Do the lockers just hang from the fixing points in the roof are do you also fix them to the wall? Thanks again for all the videos and please upload more content.

Hi nonessential upload more content ha. I’ll try. No. Ceiling fixings alone are def not enough. Either similar to walls with timber substrates. Or rivnuts to metal 👍🏻

I Know this is a while back but just starting my van build and your videos are so much help to me. Can i ask what you did under the factory flooring I'm just gonna be a weekend warrior on the MTB and want to re use existing floor as a base but interested what you put underneath

Hi mate. Go to the the full time lapse of this build and you will see it. Def use existing floor. It’s hard as nails.
Looks Great and loving the fabric . Can I ask did you wrap the door pillars in the same kind and what material supplier has it as not liking my automotive carpet sample I have . Thanks
@urbanarkoverland
2 жыл бұрын
Hi mate. I do say in the video about the pillars. That was 4mm foam and same material. Link to materials in description 👍🏻
ive done ceilings before and those clips you are talking about are a nightmare. Your idea of rivnuts and nylon bolts really is a good idea. That is well smart. I liked your plywood ceiling frame , pocket holed into the beams. I will do what you are doing. Leave the strips as less is sometimes best. Your idea of aluminium strips might be overboard. How did you marry up the bolts into the rivnuts?

I like this. I’ve always heard that you put the insulation directly on the van metal and foil backed plastic on the inside because of heat transfer. I’m sure it doesn’t really matter as people obsess over minutiae on KZread 😩🖤

You are talking about a vapour barrier. That’s not this. And I don’t use that method 👍🏻👍🏻
Looks awesome, thinking of replacing my ceiling. How did you fix the ends by the head liner and the doors? Also did you use the closed cell foam on the pillars before the tweed? Cheers

Sat nav for the tv??? That’s confusing. My sat nav is Google maps from my phone. Literally maps on iPhone through apple play. But the tv signal…. Is actually tethered from phone. No van WiFi. Had wifi in the other van and was no better that my phone. The actual tv will make use of apps such as Netflix and KZread. Amazon prime etc. hope this answers as not quite sure about the question 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
