Height squinting in the sun drinking gin 😆

Can anyone tell me the exact minimum locker hight needed for 11 kilo gasit cylinders please. I know they are 580mm how much headroom is needed above that.

I have used that on my bonded car windscreen that developed a leak along the top joint. Two applications just dribbling it into the joint no more leaking that was around six months ago.

I have this waste tank and would like to swap it for a smaller one this measures 1233mm long 330x440 I would guess around 180 litres. I would like around 80 to 100 litres this one is to long for available space.located in Nuneaton.

Bought a glass topped little table from aldi with a nice peacock design £12.50. Removed the glass top and discarded the rest, cut a frame with a jigsaw out of a piece of left over ply borrowed a router to cut a lip around the inside painted white. Applied a bead of stixall around the lip...

Thanks, it’s Thanks its an Iveco 7.5 tonne ex library

Thanks folks been a big learning curve for me frustrating at times but mostly fun to do. 😁

Front and kitchen nearly done, bathroom and bedroom ongoing but with all this time I have for the foreseeable future the end is in sight.

I started this conversion in the spring last year mostly just at weekends due to working away from home a lot. My work dried up two weeks ago and most of my time is now going into this. A few pictures to show changes.

I don’t know about the stanley gun, I bought a titan nail gun from screwfix fires 15 mm brads and staples £19.99 if that is big enough for you I would recommend it mine has seen a lot of use and still going strong.

Nice looking van, cut some holes in it 😆

Eek that’s a bit fierce, we are making them ourselves after looking at expensive prices, after some research we are confident of a good finish 🤞🏻. As you say earlier each to their own.

Covering fabric arrived yesterday from Dales fabrics Lancaster 8 meters x 54 1/2 inches (why they use metric and imperial I don’t know ) £61 delivered. All cut to size today ready for the sewing machine driven by my good lady, she will assemble them in the week while I am at work so I don’t...

My seating foam arrived today four pieces, 106x65cm 106x42cm 168x65 168x42 all 10 cm thick average firm blue covered with stockinette £154 delivered. Bought from GB Foam direct online ordered Friday. Have put it on the seats and sat on it very comfy. 👍

I have a 2007 one 7.5 tonne but with less than half the mileage of that one, two thirds of the way through the conversion, runs sweet as a nut and I am happy with it. 😁

That’s the way I did mine with added stixall to prevent squeaking.

£740ish at the pump green shield stamp heaven.

The only limiting factor is depth of cut 25mm on mine.

I also have a mini saw the Titan version from screwfix and find it very handy, even long cuts with a guide clamped to the job come out very well.

Plus one on the knees, three steps up into mine. Nine months into my build mostly weekends as I work full time just a kid at 62, as Nigel says it is a mental as well as a physical challenge. Research and ask questions, things you may think you can’t do become doable. Go for it and enjoy yourself.
