After hundreds of hours watching van builders....
I wouldn't touch my van without checking in to watch how to do it right ..by Greg.

But it's far more than the complete confidence he evokes.

It's his manner and quality of production...even down to the best use of music

I’m mechanical engineer and this is the kind of information I really appreciate 💪🏻💪🏻

[CruisingTheCut]

Exactly as anticipated, every second of this was another gem and I intend to shamelessly steal every single idea here for my build. Family will be surprised to find me asking for an electric carving knife for Christmas :-) Those pins are genius - thank you! Just a shame you've shown it can be done in the cold because I've been using that as an excuse not to get on with it!! Cheers.

Greg we are about to embark on our first camper conversion, you video’s certainly shine a light on those dark areas for me!
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain what’s what and especially why!!
Keep ‘em coming.
You are a legend!

Amazing video series. Those stick pins do solve solid insulation placement issues. I have viewed virtually every van conversion YouTube video, and you are the first to demonstrate this most effective product. I thank you for this tip!

[wheelsrbest]

Hi Greg great video. I had never ever heard of stick pins until now . Just proves even at 68 every days a school day. One new subscriber. Thanks again.

[slev]

The stick pins and the carving knife are genius.

[grahamgarner]

I am watching your videos with enthusiasm,
You are GOOD. Thank you Graham.

have watched many videos now on insulating vans but this has been the first regarding using the stick pins. very interesting. thx !

[WhisperingStormMag]

This was amazing! My nephew is going to do the build out for me. I’ve had long Covid for 2 1/2 years and I’m ready to move my bedroom into the van and hit the road! Neither of us know anything about converting a van, so this was absolutely fabulous! Thank you for sharing. I’ll share it with other groups that I’m involved with also!

[mattcaldecourt]

Greg this step by step guide is proving to be ideal. Certainly inspired me to try and build my own van. You’re attention to detail and engineering is fantastic.

[harveysmith]

Really good. It all makes sense from the first video now.
The vapour barrier works in exactly the same way as those used on timber framed houses which I cut my teeth on during my apprenticeship. That was back 1880 though!
Nice to see Cruising The Cut here. Worth watching, very dry. Which is ironic as he lives on the water.

[TheSimonG]

This is the most informative camper van build I have seen. Really good stuff.

[grazynakaledek]

Hi Greg you are a very thorough in your Builds. The Stick Pins idea for hanging Insulation is Fabulous!
Thank you very much for sharing your Ideas & Methods for working. Grace

I used stickpins for wool insulation in 1988 on a Halfords building. Replaced roof sheets and the stickpins wouldn’t budge after nearly 30 the way, brilliant professional videos Greg...thanks man🚍🚌
