@@budgethomeclassics Thank you so much, you're so kind! A proyect like this is very exciting, also exhausting, but there's this wholesome feeling of watching everything turn out good in the end, it has no price. Watching how you adapt and overcome obstacles with good spirit and fun is very inspiring, keep it up you're doing great! And thanks for the support, i dropped a message on insta and also to tell you that the first comment i posted at minute 1 so i didn't see the spanish/portuguese map. I speak native spanish so let me know if you need anything, i'd be very happy to help with the translation! :)

Great idea using the wood instead of the plywood, which would have needed a frame to hold it together. Are you going to use the space inside the boxed areas? If you said in the video, i missed you saying it. How are you getting on with the RV8 build?
@budgethomeclassics2 ай бұрын
Thanks Rich! Yeah the idea is to use it as top down storage really, might cut a side door into it, not sure yet. RV8 build is going well, not made much progress on it since my last vid, as the vans been taking priority. More to come on it soon though 🤘🏻

Before you buy a new Jack, you can top the oil up on most of them. There's a little rubber bung in the side of the hydraulic ram. Pop it out, stick any thin oil in it. Brake fluid or power steering fluid will do. Pump it a few times, top up again. Stick the bung back in.. Hey presto! You may need a new o-ring in the piston it's leaking badly, but easily changed.
