How we fit LINO FLOORING in our DIY Renault Master Van Conversion | Ep 4

[@NomaddUK]

Nic you have the most infectious laugh. Sam is a lucky guy. Especially after seeing that hula dance on your new door mat. Lol xx.

[@nicroams]

Haha thank you, I have a few other good moves tucked away, may pull them out for the next vid 😄

[@Defender200tdi]

I have just finished my mwb 04 master/movano build, I have loads of pics if you want them, or come and take a look

[@carjam49]

It's wonderful to see you so happy and excited. Great video, thank you both.

[@nicroams]

Thank you so much Carole, have a lovely weekend 🥰

[@jungtao]

This is super interesting. The “Lino” flooring does seem stressful!

[@nicroams]

Thank you! Yesss, was pretty hard to work with vs laminate flooring where you can do a bit at a time 😆. Thank you for tuning in! 🙌🏼

[@HelenAndyTravel]

Wow, loving your videos guys, they're inspirational and now all i want to do is build another camper

[@nicroams]

Thank you both, they are so addictive 😄

[@hippilysoul]

Wow! I love this build series! You 2 is such a great team! Thanks Nic and Sam for the amazing content

[@nicroams]

Aw thank you so much 🤗 have an awesome week 🫶🏼

[@travelbowuk]

Gotta ask what happened to Sams eye ? Brilliant video thanks both 👏 can't wait to see her finished.

[@nicroams]

Sam decided to start white collar boxing, first day, he gets a 'black' eye 😆

[@ProjectCamper]

Great jobs guys 👍👍👍

[@nicroams]

Thank you, hope you’re doing well 🫶🏼

[@byroncudworth6918]

Ohhh Ryobi...nice!

[@nicroams]

Yesss, we were so happy to get our hands on some decent power tools 🥹

[@JohnLaw1958]

Would love to do my own build look forward to seeing the finished van. Think you need to put some protection on the floor whilst doing the rest of the build. good luck

[@nicroams]

Sending you luck for that day to come soon 🍀. And I think you’re right, we currently have offcuts of the flooring plonked around so hopping from one to another 😆

[@mrbluesky9891]

Van conversions are hard work. Love the driftwood, goes great with many colours. Did Lord O inspect the work? Well done, as usual Nic and Sam. xx 🙂

[@nicroams]

Aren’t they 🙃 I’ve spent the past 3 days ‘making decisions’ 😆. Onyx will be coming to help next week. He likes to inspect how the build is going, so don’t worry the van is in safe paws 🐈‍⬛

[@michaeltravels6574]

Loving the energy of the videos at the moment! Quick question, how do you guys keep finding great vans! I've been looking for ages and really struggling 😩

[@nicroams]

Thank you Michael 😄. Our main tips when buying a van is using the MOT checker online, checking service history and be open minded on what van you get. I never went looking for a Renault Master, I actually was set on a Peugeot Boxer again but I couldn't find anything of quality within my budget. With this van in particular, I got it from a garage and paid for 3 months gold warranty so if anything did go wrong (which it did), It was all covered. I do have a video on picking the right van and what to look out for when buying a van that might help with this kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZTXq3ysic92eaM. Hope all this helps 😄

[@kimnorris9445]

I LOVE the choice of flooring! So clean and fresh looking. And easy to take care of. It's very inspiring... I have an odd question for you Nic; where did you get your shoes? I have seen you wearing them quite a bit and would like to find a pair for myself. Keep cracking on! Can't wait for the next episode.

[@nicroams]

Thank you so much 🤗 haha, I live in them, they are indoor/outdoor slippers by Keen 🤗

[@kimnorris9445]

@@nicroams Thank you! I know you guys are super busy, so thanks so much for replying. Much love from British Columbia, Canada!

[@laguna3fase4]

Lino is a brand name for linoleum an old form of material made from Linseed oil. You have vinyl

[@nicroams]

Thank you for clearing this up 😆 I will try my best to remember which is right in future 🙌🏽

[@amarillasolo5864]

@@nicroams it's just like calling everything that is a vacuum cleaner a Hoover. ....not a problem.

[@helenmatthews282]

You are doing great !!! Can we see onyx again soon ?

[@nicroams]

He will be making an appearance next week 🤗 we have him back and he’s been inspecting our work as we go. So the build is in safe hands 😆

[@stephaniemclean2451]

Caulking on the edges of your vinyl/lino will hide the imperfections !

[@blueboxexteriorcleaningser8014]

Oxalic acid is best for getting stains out of wood very safe to use

[@nicroams]

Thank you for that tip! There’s 101 things to learn as we are going, even if it is our 5th, each van loves to bring new challenges 🙃

[@blueboxexteriorcleaningser8014]

@@nicroams I'm sure your both kill it 👊👍

[@dappa9996]

Glad I found your channel again, good job and you too are a great looking couple I wish you well my tip for you would try to link up with other van lifers who also so KZbin reach out you guys are very likeable and good way to increase your subs ;-)

[@S.p.a.c.e.C.o.w.b.o.y]

Hi Nic & Sam :) I'm planning some car camping for next year and wanted to ask if you have a work around for the 90 day Schengan visa? I'm in the UK too and wondered how you both manage the 3 month on 3 off issue. All the best. :)

[@nicroams]

Hello 👋 that sounds like an awesome adventure. We have just kept our road trips to 90 days and then returned to the UK. However you could also break up your 90 days by heading towards Croatia or Morocco 🤗

[@S.p.a.c.e.C.o.w.b.o.y]

@@nicroams Thanks for the advice, I can understand why there has to be a limit but not to be able to apply for an extension is abit daft. Loving the van build too. :)

[@clareboylan6741]

Is that a new van Nic? Or your old one? Looks great 😊

[@nicroams]

It’s a new van 🤗 well a 2006 Renault Master kind of new 🙃

[@heatherhock3622]

Driftwood! Perfect! Oh hell ya everyone like a good bonfire 🔥 👌 Good progress y'all, don't sweat the small shit, if you dont see it from 3foot away its all good, & if you do then turn off the light😉 p.s. hows Lord Onyx?

[@nicroams]

We will see all the carpet stores renaming beige to ‘driftwood’ soon 😆 You are so right, you can barely notice it when standing up 🙃. He is good, he’s currently snoozing away next to me as I chat away on here 🐈‍⬛. Hope you are keeping well and had a good Halloween/bonfire night.

[@Jez43210]

Using Dewalt after ryobi sent u £££’s in power tools 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@nicroams]

They gifted us 3 tools to compliment tools we already had. Unfortunately we can’t complete a van build with only those tools so we will continue to borrow Sam’s dads stuff especially so we can work on 2 jobs at once 🤗
