53. Visiting Stroud and Gloucester in the campervan Vandemonium 2021-07-07 | The van had to go for its annual MoT safety check and immediately afterwards I needed to visit Stroud to look at a roundabout, then onto Gloucester for some canal filming.

52. Film Crew Vandemonium 2021-06-06 | In the last couple of weeks, I've used the campervan as a mobile base for filming narrowboat videos, including trips to Boston in Lincolnshire and Tring in Hertfordshire.

49. Campervan toilet: revised version Vandemonium 2021-03-02 | At long last, I made an upgrade to the site of the portable Dometic toilet in the campervan, giving it a dedicated space which is easily accessible both for use and for taking the toilet out for emptying. This finally frees up the space next to it for permanent storage too.If you liked the video and wish to leave me a tip, thank you!ko-fi.com/davidjohnsTools used for the campervan build:DeWalt jigsaw: geni.us/Van_DeWaltJigsawDeWalt drill: geni.us/Van_DeWaltDrillDeWalt mitre saw: geni.us/Van_DeWaltMitreSawDeWalt circular saw: geni.us/Van_DeWaltCircSawThe portable toilet is geni.us/Van_ToiletSink unit is geni.us/Van_SinkHobHeater unit: geni.us/Van_PropexHS2000Web http://www.vandemonium.co.ukTwitter http://www.twitter.com/VandemoniumUKInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/VandemoniumUKAs an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

46. Re-making the cabinets in my DIY campervan (and rewiring too) Part 1 Vandemonium 2020-11-05 | I never liked the corner unit at the back of the van - it was badly made (by me), looked grotty and didn't hold much in when going round corners. Plus the shelf over the kitchen wasn't much better. So, I'm re-making them but in order to do this, the job ends up much bigger than planned as I need to re-route some of the ceiling wiring.If you liked the video and wish to leave me a tip, thank you!ko-fi.com/davidjohnsTools used for the campervan build:DeWalt jigsaw: geni.us/Van_DeWaltJigsawDeWalt drill: geni.us/Van_DeWaltDrillDeWalt mitre saw: geni.us/Van_DeWaltMitreSawThe portable toilet is geni.us/Van_ToiletSink unit is geni.us/Van_SinkHobHeater unit: geni.us/Van_PropexHS2000Web http://www.vandemonium.co.ukTwitter http://www.twitter.com/VandemoniumUKInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/VandemoniumUKAs an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.#campervan #vanlife #selfbuild #DIY
45. Replacing the sink tap in my campervan because the supply pipe leaked Vandemonium 2020-08-14 | #campervan #vanlife #selfbuild #DIY The tap that came with the sink unit in the campervan turns out to be rubbish as the pipe junction from the supply tank is just held in with fresh air and hope - in other words, not held in at all, so recently it began spraying water all around the tank area instead of sending it up to the sink. Thus I bought a new tap and fitted that, as shown in this video.If you liked the video and wish to leave me a tip, thank you!ko-fi.com/davidjohnsNew tap unit: geni.us/Van_NewColdTapTools used for the campervan build:DeWalt jigsaw: geni.us/Van_DeWaltJigsawDeWalt drill: geni.us/Van_DeWaltDrillDeWalt mitre saw: geni.us/Van_DeWaltMitreSawThe portable toilet is geni.us/Van_ToiletSink unit is geni.us/Van_SinkHobHeater unit: geni.us/Van_PropexHS2000Web http://www.vandemonium.co.ukTwitter http://www.twitter.com/VandemoniumUKInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/VandemoniumUKAs an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
44. Overnight campervan trip! Plus test of a pop-up shower tent and portable shower Vandemonium 2020-08-04 | I went for a one-night campervan trip to Billing Aquadrome in the Northamptonshire countryside, meeting up with another van enthusiast as well, whose video is linked below. There I tried out my new pop-up shower tent, with water coming from a collapsible bucket via a battery-operated pump. Did it work?
