Booze containers

Got to have somewhere to keep them;

It Works!

We made it to Dan-yr-Ogof for just one night. Got to test out using the electric hook up etc.
Sometimes TomTom can prove to be interesting!
This went on for 3-4 miles but was interesting all the same. It also had a few good spots for rough camping along the way. It did actually lead through to proper roads again.

Sewing

Me in action on the curtains!
They actually look pretty good.

Ex Tractor Fan

Another job off the list. Fitted and ducted to the outside to stop condensation problems inside the van from cooking.
TKMaxx also provided a suitable chopping board and set of Sebatier Knives.I also built some Cutlery storage which is a bit over the top.
The pieces;
You can never have too many clamps;
Pre varnish;
Anal touch, the teaspoon section is shorter so they don't get lost in the bottom.

ECO insulation

Here's some of the eco insulation used for the over cab area. It's nice and itch free but a bugger to cut as it's made from recycled bottles (hope it has a fire retardant too!)

Nearly There

I've started to cover up nasty gaps and put on final coats of varnish. The 230v lights are up and running.
The toilet now has a light and a window cut out which you can just about see in the pic.
The power hook up. Runs the 230v and a transformer so 12v can be used too.

New toilet door lock. Judging by the holes around it I'm guessing it's about the 10th to be fitted!

I've got to sort a proper DAB and FM aerial, a better fixing system to the heater tank, fix the curtain tracks, fix the extractor hood, sort out the rear fog light and do a bit more varnishing.
Then Vez the mechanic or another garage has to fit a new silencer, tail pipe, brake shoes and cylinders, brake hoses, downpipe gasket and bleed the brakes.

Getting there

The new plates are on and the over driver area is done!
Also fitted is a 12v transformer for running the low voltage stuff with a hook up. Consumer unit wired up today and everything working!

HEAT!

The Eberspacher heater is in. I've fitted a separate 30l tank as it was easier than plumbing it to the existing. It also means I can use red diesel, heating oil or paraffin which it's full with now as it burns the cleanest. It has a heat exchanger so intake and exhaust is seperate under the van and a fan is inside blows air across the exchanger so no carbon monoxide problems. It really kicks out heat!
Bit smokey when it first starts up, after 30 seconds there is no smoke. It needs the silencer to stop it sounding like a jet taking off!
