I don't understand why people ruin motorhomes like this, horrible.

Actually remodel them for a living. The correct way would have been to replace the wall boards not paint them as they manufacture the wall board in 4x8 sheets with the patterns of your choice already on the wall board. @@HappyCampingMom

@@holiday1 If they're living in the bleeding thing, then i reckon they can deck it out any sodding way they want, mister. It's very easy on here, for people to "put their oar in". We're all learning, even you, charlie.
Little Henry said” you can try again dad! You can always try again!” Omg I just died! He’s soo freaking sweet!!!!! Good job mama and dada!

Henry is so encouraging: “You can try again, dad, you can always try again!” ❤❤❤❤
Hi guys! Thanks for watching with us!
I love that your little one is helping… the Pride they feel helping is beautiful…
I just happened upon your video. I figured that it would be a before and after kind of thing, without actually showing what went into it. When I realized that you were going to show each project, I thought I would get bored, but decided I would just fast forward, if my ADD kicked in. I loved this whole video. You guys did an amazing job! I thought it was so great, that it was a family project, and even your adorable son, was there to give Dad pep talks! It turned out so nice. Well done! I don't know how you guys learned how to do all of the stuff you did, but you were brave enough to go for it, and skilled enough to make it work. Thanks for sharing the transformation, really great job!

Love everything you guys did😂..nice to see your son has a doll. Lol my son is 31 now and he named his daughter..the dolls name.❤❤love and huggs from Canada 🍁 @@WilderAdventures
My husband and I have rebuilt our GMC motorhome twice over twenty years and I have enjoyed watching you two work together like most couples can not.
Theres hardly any videos like this from complete start to finish. 90 percent of the camper remodel videos are a couple talking talking talking with minimal clips showing hardly any detail of HOW they did it. I realize it takes a ton of work to make a video like this but it's called hustling. You all have the real hustle! Thank you so much for taking the time and energy to show us your process.

Great vids. Enjoying every minute at 74, I wish I was young again!
I am in awe of your husband's skills. I've always loved woodworking and tools. You have skills also esp. with your sewing and painting.. Your son will grow up knowing the tools of the trade from you both. I'm so excited that you cared to share with those that have the same ideas of converting RV's/campers... Luv the fact you're enjoying your trips as a family with more adventures in your future... Good luck to you and in your new home! ❤

Those words "You can always try again dad" has got to be the most powerful words in the English language and resonates with me in ways I could never explain. Thank you for the awesome content and for those powerful words of wisdom
YOU BOTH have done a great job on the remodeling project
Just found your channel and I’m hooked!!! You both are so capable and talented!!! Henry is adorable! Kudos for letting him “help”. Sooo sweet! Can’t wait to see more!
So enjoy that you documented all this - and completely love your sweet, kind-spirited, hard-working wife. You're a lucky man!
I love watching your family, Henry is the sweetest little man.

Can’t wait to watch your other videos! You both are very handy! I’m a DIY’er as much as I can too. If I can’t do it myself, I at least want to be hands on!! Enjoy your travels and safe journeys. Henry is one lucky little boy to be on all those adventures. Better than any school can teach!! (That coming from a former teacher!!)

Love the cushion covers, what a bargain make over on them!! If you put a layer of dacron batting over the foam it will fill them out better and make them look snugger. It's so great you are letting your son help and join in, what a great memory for him.

A real pleasure to watch you both work on your RV
You guys really reimagined and updated that interior. It looks more modern and fresh than the dated 80s interior it had before. I know someone who used to work in an RV factory. For how expensive they are, RVs are POORLY made. Same with many mobile homes.
Wow guys,you did an awesome with this RV,,looks amazing!! Hope you have many happy trips and memories with it!! 💜

It's really cool to see what other people are doing. See how talented or skilled someone is at building or doing their passion. Plus, it may come in handy later in my life if I choose to renovate an RV, a Jeep, a van or turn an old ambulance into my dream camper conversion or build a camper from an old straight box highway tractor. Tour the country in an RV Toter with a traveling HO scale model train layout in a Feather Lite racing trailer, with a double glide out from both sides of the trailer. The Ultimate Dream RV Camper!

Yo…. Silicon calking tip…. Lay the bead, with a smaller paint brush, lightly brush the bead and 90 angle with a mix of water and a touch of liquid dish soap. Now drag (NOT YOUR FINGER) a calking scraper along the bead, wiping off the load when needed. THEN dip your finger tips in the soapy water and lightly rub along the calked corner… it smooth and shines it out. This is a tip I learned 25 years ago when I moved to Germany… since shared it with all my family and friends in the states and they are frickin‘ amazed…. So easy… perfect calking EVERYTIME.
Loved your perseverance and creative ways of doing things. Glad you’re enjoying the use of it.
