The four most used tools in my build were: - 1. Multitool, I used my amazing Bosch multitool on so many occasions it was totally invaluable! 2. Rechargeable drill, as in so many things DIY a good one of these for me in any case essential, mine is a Hitachi and is as good now as it was 4 years...

Stewart when you find a good and friendly supplier hang onto him like a leach!

Our dog walking isn’t at all pleasant when storms like Eric are blowing away, mind you it does never cease to amaze me when I watch the Red Kites and Common Buzzards flying overhead whilst twisting and turning their bodies so magically............. and then there are the Crows, Rooks and...

Mind you Darren, as the years go by and emission regulations become ever tighter then there will forever and ever increasingly stringent emission regulations coming into force! Already in the UK there is already the London emission zone where your beauty is no doubt not allowed, as there are...

My concern is Phil is that if there is any grey area at all, then an (underhand, self funding) organisation such as the DVSA might try and make something about nothing which is why this matter surely needs addressing at ministry level so that any and all suspicion is removed, which is hopefully...

Here is a facebook link to a weekend bash at Peterborough in May for quirky self built vans: - https://www.facebook.com/events/1076616859185548/permalink/1141552736025293/ or via an internet link https://www.quirkycampers.co.uk/campervan-festival/ I won't be going, but I thought I would put...

Thanks for that Phil, brilliant work

I had forgotten Muttley was a MWB, you have made an amazing use of the space................... truly well done. Phil ps. As for the Newfoundland, we know of one or two other people who have been thinking about adopting one of them and then they learnt about the amazing upkeep as well as the...

Ken I love your plinth you made for the sink, 10 out of 10... I have the very same Magnums sink in 'Millie', but I bought the plinth they sell for it as well and it was a right royal PITA to fit! My washroom is across the back of the van between the wheelarches which just allowed me to be able...

Sorry to post a reply that is totally off topic, but for kinky people into old Merc vans, this beauty might just result in you creaming your crackers!! https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1042850 Phil

The only caveats I have/hold about this supplier are:- 1. The website is dreadful and exceptionally slow. 2. On the website they claim 99% of all orders if placed before 1pm (13.00hrs) will be delivered the next day whereas my delivery took 4 days! I contacted BC Profiles about this slow...

Phil @Squiffy, you are doing an absolutely fantastic job. OK it doesn't affect me but I know of a great number of motorhome owners who it does and as such it is a matter that surely MUST be brought to the attention of the press and public alike? As one of the people who corresponded with you...

Trouble is, although Geoff phoned me I don't have the foggiest idea what his number is otherwise I would phone him. Phil

I had GEOFF on the phone to me last night, yes GEOFF who was on both SBMCC and DIY. He told me that he has registered on here but for some unknown reason he doesn't appear to be able to get onto the site, possibly @Admin can look into the matter for him? Phil

I seldom if ever disagree with anything you write Phil, but on this occasion I do as throughout the combined membership of Phil's @Admin 3 sites, there will be countless hundreds if not thousands who carry some kind of bike in their vans, it is simply that they don't know of your sterling...

It's funny how these heaters of ours all seem to have their temperamental aspects :confused: :mad: Mine is a Propex and I can guarantee that every time I initially turn it on after a longish period of inactivity it won't work! However a quick hard blow up the heater burners air inlet pipe with...

As you have the experience Phil and the knowledge on how to effectively contact the frosty VOSA, can you by any chance become the flag waver on this very exacting topic? Phil

Ain't our Edina a little star looking after us in the way he does.....

Has Liz retired now Darren, I only ask as you are in the process of planning some lengthy European adventures? Phil

Darren me old cock sparra.................. have you thought of having it partially vinyl wrapped? And with regards to your suggested designs I would go for the last one, immediately above, but also continuing the colour scheme up and onto the roof which if going with vinyl would be a doddle. Phil
