We have a roof!! Well a few more parts to it at least! This week we get to do some really satisfying jobs like fitting the items we’ve fabricated so far, making the lid for the roof and the lifting bed frame! This is without a doubt the hardest design job we’ve taken on but loving the challenge!

Every Saturday you both cheer me up so much. You amaze me with how clever and skilful you both are at creating camper vans out of such a variety of vehicles, and you are both so joyous. Thank you.😀😀😀
-
Omg how are we going to manage next Saturday without you guys? Drinking my coffee won’t be the same. Thanks for putting us onto Karatan and Maxine it’s always nice to watch other adventurists (even tho you guys are always my favourites) Have a fantastic weekend next week and I’ll look forward to watching you guys the week after ❤

Having an Aussie involved in a project is like having a pork dish in a meal. It will always make it better 😂 Great job, guys. Have a great couple of weeks.
-
"The General and Tool Boy" is my favorite dynamic YT duo!
-
Just bought my first van to convert because of you yesterday :D
-
Guys, every weekend I am looking forward to your new video. Your humor combined with quality work is mesmerizing. Enjoy your extended weekend trip and see you again in two weeks. Cheers.
-
8:00 - full credit for the timing of those clips to the music! Epic!
-
I met you 2 today and you're the same in person as you are on YouTube very fun and genuine people! 😊 Keep smiling 😁
-
I have to say having watched channels of folk building homes, it’s great to see you both always wear protection for your Eyes and Hands. Have a great time at the weekend. Love ya both ❤️💙
-
great progress, if you havnt painted the wood yet use ebony wood stain, then you get best of both worlds, the wood will look beautiful and it will still be black. genius
-
You guys have become my favorite (camping) vehicle build video. LOVE Y’all’s attitude and funny interaction.
-
I wasn't ready for the end this week - it came too soon! That was 20 minutes of smiles, thank you.
-
Hi you two...love how you work together and appreciate each other...that look Jon gave Jess was everything😊 enjoy your weekend..not going to lie,gonna miss you two next week ❤
-
You two crack me up 😂 Usually the banter, but this week it was the welding noises to the beat of a bit house music 😂 It's the simple things ay! Thanks for the entertainment
-
A brilliant bit of video for everyone
-
It's 'change tack' not 'change tact' Jess! It's a sailing reference. Common mistake. Like 'tenter hooks' (not 'tender hooks'). Loving this conversion. I only came for the Defender conversion because we want to do ours but have stayed ever since. 👍

13:30 keep in mind that insects like to nest in stuff like that. So if its not in use, regualry check up on it to make sure than nothing builds its nest in there. The probability is lower as its inside of something, but sleepng on a wasp nest is not something fun if you didnt notice it. 19:40 why not use a black stain that way you can still see the grain but dont have the problem with it being to many colors. If one coat isnt enough just do a second or third.

Woohoo! Another Saturday and another TBT video. We've been watching since the Sainsbury's van build and since then we've binge watched all of your video's! Love the info given, the beautiful photography, and most of all the chemistry between you both. It's criminal you don't have more subscribers, keep up the great work.

You two are so funny together....even without the dad jokes on lubricant 😬😂😂 Glad you "tested" the bed out too🤣🤣The look of pride on Jon's face with the welding....hope you enjoyed the fireman outfit😳🫣😂😂 We'll all miss you next weekend, but have a brilliant time at Van Fest, you deserve a well earned break. Hope the weather is kind to you, but whatever the weather, I'm sure you'll have a great time. 🍻
