Hello and thankyou for watching this video.
in this video i finally rack out my van , i show you exactly how i go about with my van racking build.
this was a while ago so modifications have been made but i still show everything.
having this racking for a couple months i really wish i done pocket screw method so i could easily make adjustments and move shelves up and down but this build still works very well for me.
this video did take a while to make so if you could press that like and subscribe button it would be very much appreciated.
these videos take a while to make so my scheduel with posting has been a bit all over the place however with me posting once every 2 weeks I hope to create higher quality videos and not put so much stress on myself.
all constructive criticism is much appreciated and if you have any tips on how I can improve my videos please do let me know.

mate i watch your videos because of your personality and how you and your apprentice interact with us so it mostly about you we want you to talk , its good to see the job being done right , i have been it the wood working industry for 30 years as a cabinetmaker and joiner so i have done most things , its a relief to see a young lad doing a first rate job these days and bringing another lad up with him , thank you
thankyou mate really appreciated this comment i’ll take this on board
hi how do i get your phone number please
@@ttdowgcarpentry2390 did you just use glue for the floor, no fixings?
I like to watch your videos and find them interesting as a retired chippy and to be honest there is a lot to be said about saying what you earn, it's inspiring to people who want to move into the trade and secondly I never knew what charge when I was doing private jobs, keep up the good work lad👍
Brother...I just love watching how other tradesmen go about their profession...
Great vid mate ..from a ..plumbing/ heating engineer
Looks great ,brilliant work
Your a great bloke it’s nice to see another chippy doing his thing man! 👍👍
Good Work!!
You smashed it chief! Brilliant job!
Great video. I’m a contractor in the US. Fun to see how others do things around the world.
excellent job looks great.
Thank you so much for this video. Super helpful and well-presented. Your time and effort is most appreciated!
Racking looks superb
thankyou mate really appreciate it
Your videos are great the way they are, don’t change mate just be you!!! Your carpentry skills are sweet as.
Good job
Quickly becoming one of my favourite channels. You seem very genuine and down to earth and your work is great.
Awesome Work! Love your energy. i
thankyouu matey
👍 from a chippy in Aus
👋👋 thankyou
Decent bro, I like it. Wry difficult to get a van exactly how you want it.
Great job on the van racking , we watch you a lot and your approach to joinery is great
All the best from
Ftitchley Developments ltd
I watch because of your genuine personality that you show not for content creation big respect to what you do bro 👊👊
Well good mate keep it up
Made a nice job of your van racking. It’ll certainly make you more efficient because you can find everything. 👍🏻
Thanks mate enjoyed watching and picked up a few ideas.
One of, if not the most satisfying build videos I've seen! Good luck with the new future content mate
I like the way you work .. Very methodical ! Great video mate 👏🏼🤠
Great concept! I was looking for this exact system, Thanks for sharing!
Been subbed for maybe a year now and love your content a lot, you always have great attention to detail and care about the job clearly! Love the racking design good job 👍🏼🎄
Tidy job mate that’ll be way easier to work out if now! 👍🏻
100% thanks matey
Lovely old job
thankyou i appreciate the kind comment
Well done mate your level storage is a winner I will do the same in my van 👌👍
thanks mate really appreciate it
The ceiling needs insulation to keep levels up there, the silvered bubblewrap will be fine.
thumbs up for all the hard work and the van looks amazing.
Thank you really appreciate the kind words
@@ttdowgcarpentry2390 man you are just a humble, great guy and I really enjoy your videos. I'm not really in the trades, but I do a lot of what you are doing and sometimes it's challenging because of the awkwardness of the space or project. Cheers.
Really enjoy watching your videos clear and easy to follow keep up the good work. hopefully see a lot more from yourself in the future. Good luck
On the road all the time in brum keeping on eye out for you 👍 keep up the videos are good
thankyouu i’m sure we will cross paths
Love it mate. 👍🏻😊
thankyouu
Love ut content mann in from Sweden
thanks mate really appreciate it
Nice job lads 👏
its about time you tackled sorting your van out,i honestly dont know why you took so long .you will see the benefits very quickly knowing where everything is saves a lot of wasted time searching for tools can be spent on production not to mention possible damage to expensive equipment.looks so much better and more professional when you arrive at a customers house.
very very true your saying all facts here it shouldn’t have taken me this long to finally do this
I too watch your videos because of the precise attention to detail you do. I understand in carpentry you have too.
StaySafe Brother
✌👍🤜🏽
Van racking look nice mate… good one 👍
thanks matey i appreciate it
Bro love your work keep it up
thankyou i really appreciate this comment
Racked a few vans out over the years and one thing I always do is create a false floor. In my current hi cube transit custom the floor is about 12” depth split into 3 levels. Bottom level is divided into sections for storage of different lengths of timber (skirts, floor boards, 3x2, mop stick etc) and is similar to your level storage idea where as the dividers are shorter nearest the side door so as I can flick out any shorter lengths that migrate to the bulkhead. Middle level is for full 8x4 sheets of ply/OSB and top level is for upvc trim, cabinet end panels etc. This system allows me to have plenty of spare materials in the floor + racking either side of the van and still have room to carry a few doors/sheets etc in between the racks.
One thing I will say is that no matter how much I plan my racking, it constantly evolves as my work changes and different tools come and go and I’m currently head scratching about how I can incorporate a slide out work bench into my false floor 😁
I absolutely enjoy your content
thankyou mate i really appreciate this
This is the first of yours I have watched and now subbed. Racked out a few vans in my time and it never gets easier with time. Each new vehicle is so different. Well done. Bob (Weston super Mare)
I plan racking a van with a compositing toilet since I'm not a professional carpenter I am just a diy guy but I deliver mail and I cant always stop to drive 4 miles into town. You gave me some ideas cheers from Alabama USA.
Great bespoke settings love this vid
I bet this was sooo satisfying to do! Nice one dude
it was indeed felt like sleeping in the back after 😅
Well done looks good
Salute from the states bro, keep on pushing…
thankyou really appreciate it
Cheers mate enjoyed watching your van build 👍
Sweet setup
Mate I’ll give you some advice, keep doing what your doing it’s great !!!
Keep up the good work onwards and upwards
thanks mate i really appreciate your kind words
Literally just picked up a larger van this week, SWB Transit & can't wait to get this racking underway! Hopefully see you around as we're only based in Coventry!
very close we may see each other
Another excellent video mate. Iook forward to seeing your new channel. ..
Lovely job 👌👏🏻
man you are doing wounders on that van! good work mate!
Looks good. Keep up the good work.
thanks mate really appreciate it
Fantastic
Great vid, I thought you would raise the base of the racking to fit sheet material so that it could lay flat?
looks sick!
Looking forward to doing a proper racking job once I upgrade to a larger transit. I've been making do with just the big void in my Peugeot Partner for nearly a year, but it's a nightmare trying to find tools and materials when it gets horribly cluttered. And it wastes time and money with trying to find my gear or buying duplicate materials because they are never to hand. But for the time being I'm going to make do with some very basic racking in my crappy little transit.
Why do you have 3 drills
Mate, very tidy work. I like you already :). If you need some tips about painting let me know, for you will be free :)
Looks bang on, only difference I would make is put your shelf’s at an angle that way you don’t need stoppers for things sliding forward
I find a 1 in 5 angle (11°) works well but if you catch a pothole in a corner stuff still hits the floor.
Loving your channel bud
awesome video man!! thank you!!
Insane scribing mate
thankyou matey
Carpentry is an amazing skill to watch, I would set cameras in the room of work at higher locations plus add a little more lighting, at the start of the project do a signature start for video something that is you which creates a trend for yourself. Include more long Timelapse’s with intermediate breaks where you narrate where you are at that stage. The more raw the video is in regards to how live it can feel the better so making mistakes and showing them allows people to relate to you which creates a personal investment for those watching. I would also recommend including something which you do in each video that’s unique which is possibly controversial to build discussion between the videos also !! Generally think your doing an amazing job so keep it up fella !!
Nice job 👏
Love the videos 🙌
Thankyou im glad you like them
Very good job. Please do alittle narration on your new videos. Silent videos don't teach you how to do the work. Also even if you hated doing the van remember there is a market for you to build out a van for someone else. You have a talent so use it. Mike from Alabama, USA
Nice to see Tyrell without a phone in his hand ,,,I would have dovetailed the joints hah
Perfection
Very nice setup bro ,,👏
I would've messed up the first cut haha well done
I like the out takes. Maybe plan what your going to say before you say it. I think because your growing you business and channel at the same time this will all be a learning curve. So just keep working on it. People love storage ideas, custom furniture, home renovations. So maybe more of that. I know hanging doors gets a bit old.
But so difficult, I used 1.5 hour on my first door. Step away, and tried again after 1 hour. Fixt after 20 minutes. 😅
Nice work 🤙🏽
Great to see so much planning and effort going in to it! Bound to make things much easier from now on.
A word of warning on the lower door panel... If you ever need to replace the lock on the rear doors, it will need to come off. Looks fantastic though!
not bad innit
yep thats my van at the end of every week lol large up ya self tho man just inspired me to sort it out hahah 👐💯💥
Nice work. I wish i did carpentry instead of electrics 😢
Cool built mate 🫡
Nice job mate
A little talking works better than none at all. Information on what your doing with sizes and fixing types is good too. What size ply did you use for the racking? You mentioned 6mm for the floor. The fails at the end was a good touch too..👌
Van racking looking great!
Would be nice to see some dust extraction out the front for your neighbor's benefit.
What really surprised me was paying £24 for 2 tubes of adhesive - it might be worth bulk buying multiple tubes at a time for discount i.e
12 tubes stixall £45ish and saves time as you have them on hand when needed 👍🏻 subscribed to your new channel 🔨
Was gunna say same. I buy by the box. Think I last paid £50 for stixall. Same with silicone and other consumables.
I dread to think of the markup on those ply sheets, compared to a timber merchant, each to their own though bud, nice job👌🏻
I actually think it's better when you talk throughout. I understand you have a day job, and the fact that it can be a lot of work putting videos together, but maybe talk through some of the shorter videos. Either way, I will still watch your videos. Great design/build of the storage rack too.
thankyou mate i really appreciate this comment and thankyou for your continued support
Great stuff fella you surprise us some weeks please drop that waste of space before he costs you your good name best regards ifin northern Ireland
thankyou i appreciate the kind words and i’m not to sure what’s happening with him at the moment
your to patient as ivan says get rid ,yes an extra pair of hands but you get used to working alone and teaching him is costing you time you could be producing especially if your boy is not improving@@ttdowgcarpentry2390
@@ttdowgcarpentry2390take him for a drink & get him talking.
Be careful with the plunge saw dropped mine the other and knocked it out of alignment. No repair shop would touch it so had to buy a new one .😢 haha
Good job mate. Currently doing my own van. Just started up myself so looking for inspiration! All the best bro 🤝
Thankyou mate and best of luck to you
At builders supply you can park van next to the stuff you need.. saves moving it twice
You've got some serious skills there fella. Really impressed. Is this a service you offer as well to clients? If it isn't, you should do.
I built
My racks straight on the plastic flooring makes it easy to clean
Great video, neat and tidy well done
But ya gotta stop going to B@Q. You must be paying double for everything
thankyou for the kind comment and your right
@@ttdowgcarpentry2390there's also better quality elsewhere, especially the plywood.
Screwfix & B&Q are the same company but different prices.
Hope you had a camera man must of took you ages at b&q. Just like to say your doing great at this CZcams follow from a early stage of your journey 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Quality vid as always. What was that you used to clean the floor of your van?
to clean saw dust dewalt lead blower to clean paint just a mop hot water bleach and floor cleaner
Sweet bro cheers. My tips on improving would just be to watch the most popular creators making similar content and mimic aspects of there videos in a way that works for you but mostly just enjoy then that’s all that matters.
Hi bud how do you deal with van security? As a gas engineer I have had my van robbed 5 time now, its a constant worry were you park it on jobs the same at home, pigs don't even come out. You have a lot off tools so this must be a concern? Great channel by the way, love you openness and honesty
Cheers
How do you tolerate that apprentice?? Seriously i couldn't pay someone like that
Also get yourself a proper bench
Hi mate, how much did you charge yourself for this job ;)
Keep your tools safe! Tool theft is high breh
Very true
Hopefully when you put those shelves in you leant them back slightly stops them from flying out when you go around corners, easy fix in future if you didnt Hopefully
Edit; just seen what you did with the wood tabs
Do you use 12mm hardwood ply for the shelving mate?
Question. Do you leave your tools in your van overnight? As a carpenter myself I can’t where I live! Too many pikeys about!
get together with other tradesmen & buy a yard you can lock up?
