    Just to think I had seen it all !!!

    If the Russians carry on like they are we may all like wriggly tin (Anderson style) 🤣, Phil. P.S Not that an Anderson would be much use.

    Just to think I had seen it all !!!

    I'd suspect that with the purchase of the sheet and chemicals plus paint it would have cost less to use ply or tongue and groove. What an odd way to go about it, could sort of understand if he had the galvanised sheets hanging around spare. Phil.

    Triumph Bonniville T100

    There are several versions of the Bonnie Trev a T120 is one of them, there is also the Bonnie T214 which was only produced between 2014 and 2015 I believe but the most common one is the T100 and its variants. Phil

    VW T5 electrics

    No that's not quite fair they are not bad to work on, they are obviously well engineered and long lasting, but have to say without a pop top are a nightmare for senior citizens, and I mean senior citizens, even John (Son) eventually had a pop top fitted so at 6'2" he could stand up in it. But...

    Creepy crawlies

    The reason I leave reviews is my youngest son is a wizard at buying off the Internet but he always reads reviews, cosher ones are easily recognised he says and I believe he's right, you can tell if a review is false, so I always give a review but not over the top and always give a negative...

    I think there should be a warning of the sparks but all it says is place on 300mm Square heat proof mat. Not that this little plastic container will erupt when you light the wick 😄. Phil

    Dave you are about the rudest person I have ever come across on a self build site, I've noticed and others have, that you are rude to other posters as well and seem to be a very angry man. So I suggest that you don't comment on my posts and I won't further comment on your posts by doing that...

    Dave the routing of the cable is not the issue here I admit that I did not know of this routing through the dashboard, not that I I said I would have gone that way anyway. The issue is getting to to rubber grommet in the first instance and what you have said about removing the battery and...

    VW T5 electrics

    I think a bit of explanation is needed here. The scuttle is made up of a large enclosed u tube, one side being made up by the passenger bulk head and the other made up from the engine bulkhead except the top which consists of the scuttling which is where the rain water and water from the screen...

    Great Dave, don't know what T5 you are thinking of as without removing the scuttle plate behind the battery on my sons T5 you can not gain access to the grommet it's impossible. You either have to drill through the plate to get the charge cable to the grommet or do as I did and use the moulded...

    At last I have time today to post on fitting Mains hookup and charging system to my sons T5. He intends to live in his van for a year while he completes his University coarse. So we ordered all from Amazon ( Believe it or not it was cheaper or the same price as Screwfix). First off was the...

    Chinese Diesel heaters

    After having fitted 5 Chinese diesel heaters now, I'm so impressed by them that I'm considering fitting one in my Ducato to compliment the Truma 4e so that I can have a choice of heating, gas, electric or diesel. They seem to be very economic on diesel and those who I've fitted them for have...
