Very unfortunately a forum like this needs a wealth of members who are either planning to or are actually in the process of converting their vans, added to which there must be always a wealth of people who have already done a conversion or who are actively involved in the commercial world or conversion to give advice.
Now, speaking for myself, I am active on several specific self building groups on facebook and in each and every case when I read of someone who is in the deep Do-Do, I always give the link to this site, in the very same way as I used to with sites such as diymotorhome and sbmcc both of which became or already were very active forums, and in the case of the first mentioned, over 500 people signed up to that site due to the prompts I had made to them.
I don't know why or what it is, but for some strange reason, on here it is almost always the same relatively small group of people who are reacting to or joining in with discussions, help and advice. This saddens me very greatly indeed, it also saddens me that I see posts by members of the sister paid for sites of Phil's who for some unknown reason discuss diy modifications or problems over on those sites and don't follow my prompts (whenever I see them) to come on over here and join in.
I for one would be an exceptionally happy man if this forum was humming like a spinning top, but for whatever reason it's not and that hurts !
