Awesome Campervan Conversion on a Tight Budget! Part 3
This Camper Van Conversion has been an ABSOLUTE MISSION for two Major Reasons. Number 1, we were on a very tight budget and number 2, l had a very narrow time frame to get it done by.
Having never done a van conversion before it was a massive learning curve with more twists and turns than something that has a lot of twists and turns 🤣
All up it took a solid five weeks to finish the van and l have to say that it turned out pretty nice.
I hope you enjoy it 👍😁

    Do I have a van? No Am I getting a van to convert into a camper? No Do I enjoy watching Uncle Knackers making stuff? I certainly do! The build looks fantastic and your son looks well chuffed with the results, the whole series is nicely paced and explained like all your videos, looking forward to the next project! Quick question though, what is the yellow thing on your drill at 5:20?

    • @diyforknuckleheads
      @diyforknuckleheads Před 4 dny

      👍😁.....Cheers mate....glad you liked the series! The yellow thing is a countersinking tool. Once the ring stops spinning you have the correct depth for your screw to be countersunk beneath the surface. www.bunnings.com.au/macsim-fasteners-10g-x-65mm-clever-tool_p2360775

    The one about letting the blade stop spinning is paramount in those situations. The wood really does come out of there quick on a kickback. Ive seen it dent steel cabinets. Also useful for any stubborn board. If it felt iffy going down it may be iffy coming up to. Especially if you're cutting a crowned or bent board. Better safe than sorry, stop your blade 😁
