Your Wife is the perfect assistant, knowing when to help and more importantly when not to help. Great videos I know there 5 years old but there still solid information.

[@GregVirgoe]

Thanks for watching 👍🏼😊

[@lion-gc5rh]

Your attention to detail is to be admired. I have improved my DIY skills just watching your content.

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you very much I’m glad it is helping you.

[@Tom111060]

After following your videos for some time ... I declare Greg for the "ultimate master of the jigsaw". Period.

[@GregVirgoe]

Tom111060 😀thank you A good stiff blade is the key and don’t fight it 👍🏼

[@andrewparton1551]

Yet another great tutorial. A great addition to what will be a fantastic van fit out. Well done.

[@stotas2]

Well done Greg can’t wait to see your travels

[@GregVirgoe]

It’s going to be great to have you along with us. Very excited now it’s getting closer

[@ChryslerScorpionau]

just started watching your videos ..Gold !!!

[@TomDeLombaerde]

most helpfull videos ever!!!! Thank you evr so much for all the tips.

[@rose8662]

Stunning. Absolutely beautiful. And, your teaching/instruction makes me want to try this. Thanks so much!!!

[@re33ce]

Nice clean workmanship, very helpful, looks great

[@simonsackett]

Full of useful information as usual. Thanks!

[@DJRogEurotour]

I'm in awe of your freehand jigsaw skills. Another helpful vid thanks......

[@GregVirgoe]

Thanks Roger, a slightly thicker stiffer blade and light pressure on the tool, let the blade do the work. As soon as you start trying to muscle the saw the blade bends and you get wonky cuts. Two hands to keep it steady help too. 👍🏼 I find I don’t blink at all while in the cut lol

[@johnstanton8499]

Excellent advice Thanks, the Lawn looks top also

[@davetherave2807]

amazing job greg been watching a few videos now and you have given me some great ideas especially the trimming' love what you have created and it looks stunning' i know your now on your travels and the both of you are enjoying van life in your stunning conversion' safe travels and hopefully meet up at some point

[@SweetCandy92367]

Outstanding attention to detail....👏👏👏

[@minutemark]

Professional job!

[@richierich.1982]

Really enjoyed your videos, many thanks, very therapeutic and calming. Always wanted a motor home whether converted or factory design

[@miwei7898]

yet another great how to video Greg (If I may :) ) absolutely love that high gloss finish and the color as well. Please tell Ms. Greg she's an excellent executive assistant and I can't wait to see all her special touches on the finished van. mw

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you David

[@lynnwilliams6129]

Wow!! I'm just planning my Sprinter conversion and I am definitely ordering this swivel feature!! Thank You Greg!!!

[@GregVirgoe]

We love it, it really is easy to use and opens up the van to give you loads more room.

[@sephjfox]

Looks fantastic! Enjoying your quality videos.

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you very much Joseph

[@stubbenno1]

Nice work, looks great!

[@rays128]

Nice job again , I ran a workshop for a couple of years and we used a small rubber mallet to tap the edging in. PS looks very professional.

[@marcosrodriguezlopez8918]

Thanks for another great video. Your care for details is simply extraordinary. Thanks for sharing your great work.

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you for your continued support and great feedback

[@AZRockRunner]

Great place to add a storage.

[@ThomasCraneBohemianRhapsody]

Gday Greg... from Aus. I just got my own Mercedes Sprinter and stumbled across your videos. Absolutely love them. My new bible and go to. Love your work and dedication. Goodon you! 👍

[@JensGraikowski]

Your love to detail and your professionalism is, as always, astonishing! Can't wait to meet you and your van at next year's Camp Quirky (I hope it'll all work out the way I want with renting a van and stuff). 👍🏼😉

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you very much. We are really looking forward to next years Camp Quirky, it’s going to be huge next year and I can’t wait to meet everybody and look at their new vans.

[@CreachterZ]

Beautiful!

[@GregVirgoe]

Absolutely, thank you. we love the shiny finish. :D

[@tmotten]

Awesome. Keen to see what you have coming up for tricky stuff like the overhead cabinets etc.

[@GregVirgoe]

Hello, you can see my high level cupboards design in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaDcpYNjjdKnnKs

[@tmotten]

Greg Virgoe. like that vid too. Really outlines the function of CAD. More interested in your ideas of mounting it in a vehicle.

[@lifeandlovesofkaty6296]

This is a really good video Greg. I was wondering how on Earth I was going to be able to do mine. But I’ve learnt some really valuable information. Thanks!

[@GregVirgoe]

Hi Katy, When I first looked at it myself I did a lot of head scratching. But fixing a batten to the roof rib and the larger timber on the leading edge of the shelf make it so much stronger. Although it’s only going to hold spare bedding.

[@cptSep]

Looks very neat!

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you

[@garypalmer7540]

Fabulous, thanks for that

[@cammyers]

This is just outstanding. It is as close to what you would see in a coachworks, professional upfitting shop. It's also simple, neat, strong and efficient. Great work.

[@GregVirgoe]

Very much appreciated thank you 😊

[@davelee9791]

Just watched the entire series and to say I'm very impressed by you many skills is a massive understatement ..incredible attention to detail in every way and looking forward very much to seeing it through to completion..👍👍

[@GregVirgoe]

Really appreciate your kind words Dave, It's nice to know that comes across in the videos. Hope you continue to enjoy them. Thank you

[@paulshideout9056]

Great video Greg helps alot

[@maddavvid2339]

fine job sir. good luck with all your plans

[@GregVirgoe]

Many thanks David

[@londonjacks8371]

Excellent job Greg! This van build series is compulsive viewing!, in my opinion it’s up there with the New Yankee workshop, only better, because it’s real life.

[@bathfun]

my goodness, how skilled are you? well, I will answer that question... you are bloody brilliant. Love your refit videos. Thank you so much. I am now gonna buy one of your t-shirts... maybe, that will allow me to get just alittle of your skill.

[@GregVirgoe]

Sanjeev Chaddha I’m very grateful for your support and wish you the best with you own build 😃

[@koalamullet]

Hi Greg, thanks so much for providing this absolutely essential series on the Sprinter 170 conversion, we'll be starting ours this year and will be following so many of your outstanding tutorials. One question, have you thought about providing a detailed list of all the tools and products together for the build in an upcoming video? I know that's probably a lot of work but it may get you a ton of views and likes! Anyway besides that, thank you so much again, you're truly an inspiration for many. I'm subscribed 👍. Paul

[@Griffon37]

All your work is first class Greg. My son is wanting to convert his Crafter Ann I keep showing him your work, spot on. Nice work shop too.

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you very much. I hope the videos help him to turn out a cracking van. Best wishes 😃

[@Locrian1]

Excellent stuff. This Van is the van I would make (if I had the skills, time and patience)

[@GregVirgoe]

You are very kind, thank you. The time you do need and some patience. I've never done anything like this before so it can be done. This is a huge learning curve for me also. It helps me being very fussy and methodical in my approach

[@AndreyMinsk]

Good job!

[@glennconstable3789]

Great job!

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you Glenn

[@kennethlopez9436]

Good work sir.

[@More-Space-In-Ear]

You should be feeling very proud of yourself Greg, the skills, the technique and information you’ve given us throughout the build is second to none, well done my friend 🏆👍🏼😉

[@GregVirgoe]

That's really nice of you to say so, thank you for your regular support Marc, very much appreciated.

[@malcolmyoung7866]

My LT35 van (1998 vintage) is a 'high roof' and I use it as a workshop/tool carrying facility for my vehicle projects. Was thinking of making a 'sleeper cab' but utilising the load space above a large compressor I have in the back. Would require some cutting, welding and fabrication obviously. Your videos are great for sparking the thought process and also pointing out the good and bad points I need to look out for. many thanks, Greg....(P.S. still have to fit my skylite in the rear after watching your videos earlier)

[@GregVirgoe]

A new HSS blade with fine teeth and it will be a breeze to cut. The mastic tape is a must for levelling any ribs and finish off with sikaflex Don't forget to clean up those metal fillings after before they go rusty. Funny how cutting a big hole the roof of your expensive van can make you smile so much. Best wishes and I'm sure you'll be fine.

[@LayneXIII]

Well done sir!

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you very much :D

[@nellbrown770]

nice one Greg, a great use of the space.

[@GregVirgoe]

You have to be creative to make the most of it. Scratching my head to think of garage storage ideas now.

[@nellbrown770]

Hi Greg. cargo nets maybe, or adjustable height shelving. All depends on what your wanting to store.

[@tanyaroyredcar]

Nice neat job Sir.

[@GregVirgoe]

I’ve been taking some tips from your very clean and tidy videos 👍🏼 Thanks guys lol

[@robpower100]

Nice work looks very professional.

[@GregVirgoe]

Thanks Rob, we are really thrilled with the finish.

[@jimbotheassclown]

Your what i see when i imagine what a British bob ross would be like lol .Good helpful videos.

[@GregVirgoe]

LOL but with much less hair! 😂

[@kr1886]

Nicely done Greg, got a great fit there! Handy tip on the jigsaw blades too.

[@GregVirgoe]

I was really pleased, I did not have to trim or sand anything the card template worked a dream. That’s the most complicated cuts done now.

[@ARepublicIfYouCanKeepIt]

Greg Virgoe A great example of the "Measure twice. Cut once.' rule. When in doubt, template it out!

[@ARepublicIfYouCanKeepIt]

Greg Virgoe Another possible tip (depending on visibility) is to "back cut" all scribe cuts. That is, cut to the line on the face, and back from the line on the non-visible side. It's much easier to get a great fit. And if you have to take anything off, you're doing so on a thin edge.

[@bosse641]

Good job. Very nice.

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you John

[@gaylein39503]

Very nice work.

Easily the best van build series on youtube, ive just started my Ducato L4H2 build and I'm pretty much going to copy you 80%😁 all good I'm in Western Australia so I can get away with cheating🤣 but seriously great vids Greg, lots of inspiration👍

[@GregVirgoe]

It’s here to help others achieve their dream van so I’m glad you find it to be useful. Thanks for watching 😁

[@H2Dwoat]

Hi, nice job, looks lovely 👍.

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you 😊

[@cloggsy1971]

Top job that 👍🏻

[@GregVirgoe]

Many thanks

[@michaelhemmingartist]

Very helpful video, thank you. I'm about to convert my 2003 Fiat Ducato & there is already a shelf area over the front cab so I'm already half way there, but this video gives great info on how to close it off neatly and at the same time have a useful space. Kind regards, Michael

[@GregVirgoe]

You are really welcome Michael, thank you for watching and good luck with your own build.

[@michaelhemmingartist]

Thank you Greg

[@normanboyes4983]

Absolutely first class work from conception to execution. The glossy zebrano finish looks excellent. I do think it would be useful if the manufacturer of the board developed the complementary range of screws cappings to match the finish.

[@GregVirgoe]

Hi Norman, thanks for the compliment. I have placed the screws so that they will be under the cupboard door and adjoingin wall cupboards. so you wont actually see them under normal use.

[@kellybrown6988]

This is so discouraging to watch! You're so experienced and have so many tools! I wanna start building out my van, but after watching your vids, very daunting

[@GregVirgoe]

Hmmm, I'm not really, I've never done a van build before, didn't start woodwork till two years ago. Agreed some of the tools make it easier but you can do all this with just a jigsaw, drill and router. The aim of the channel was to give detailed info to help the home DIY builder not to discourage. There's great satisfaction in building it yourself in whatever form it takes. Practice makes perfect

[@oldguy5458]

Thanks for the update,,,Greg I heard you say you cut the vinyl trim a little longer,,,, that is good,,, In my earlier life I installed a lot of molding on automobiles,,, I first installed a track then put in the vinyl insert,,,We were instructed to add between 3/8 to 1/2 inch to the insert ,,, because over time the vinyl shrinks,,, It may not be as critical inside a vehicle because it does not get the sunshine directly,,,,Just FYI,,,Best Regards

[@David-rx2to]

Greg, You are a true craftsman. Well done in all aspects. Have you thought about creating a business building camper vans with what all you've learned with this one? People would probably pay a good penny for a quality innovative design and construction.

[@GregVirgoe]

Hi David, thank you so much for your kind words. I'm giving everyone the information so I don't have to do that ;) lol Once this one is done I will be really happy to have loads of time off to enjoy it.

[@ADONAIsays-so]

The edging looks really good. Those screw caps look fantastic! I finally finished my floor. I am unsure about the insulation for my roof. Finding the stick on aluminum pin anchors in small quantities is proving rather difficult. There are steel ones available, but have poor reviews for retention. Many are rated only to 120* F, and they come loose....I'm pretty sure my van roof gets above that plenty this time of year. I did discover something that surprised me. I used the silver backed 3/4" polyiso panels to insulate the front half of the cargo area, foil side up for vapor barrier. I had a small piece of scrap lying on the metal floor, just behind the engine dog houes, and just above the trans. The floor there gets extremely hot. The scrap laying there was silver side down, and the to the touch it stays pretty much at ambient temps. The light silver film and the 3/4" poly is an amazing insulator. I'm going to frame some into that area, and put plastic over the top for a vapor barrier. Thanks again for the work you put into your videos!

[@GregVirgoe]

Is it not 120degC? I had one that came unstuck but could not put it down to temperature, it may have been dirty?Most PIR sheets are foil on both sides, both brands I used are. Plastic is also ok to use for a vapour barrier, use the correct building membrane as some plastics are slightly permeable.

[@chicoandthevan1056]

Great Video, I've been wondering what to do with that space. Thought I might leave it open for more head room while driving, but I think this idea is best for added storage etc.

[@GregVirgoe]

There is a massive headroom even with the shelf installed I'm nearly 6' and nowhere near my head at all.

[@remyllebeau77]

Looks good even without a door.

[@Juanmistyle]

es asombroso lo que lograste, quiero hacer algo muy parecido. exito con tu proyecto!

[@GregVirgoe]

racias por su amable comentario y mis mejores deseos para su propio proyecto de conversión de furgoneta.

[@PeterWestlakeWebb]

Nice work so far Greg, I see the boss is trying to muscle in on the video’s😂

[@GregVirgoe]

I know Peter, I lost count of the amount of times she said don’t do that you’ll scratch it 😂 I cut the bit out where she slapped my hand for putting dirty finger prints on the glossy finish. Gonna drive her OCD bananas lol

[@AcheForWake]

Nice video as always, I’ve been lining my van recently with the same carpet and adhesive. Take care when using the adhesive, there are some pretty alarming warnings and symbols on the can!

[@GregVirgoe]

Yes, thank you. Always use in a very well ventilated area.

[@dor843088]

Would be interested to see an outside vs inside temperature test to see how your insulation is performing as the job you did on it seems quite thorough compared to some other builds iv seen. Impressive so far 👍

[@GregVirgoe]

Hi Darren, we did spend a lot of time to get the insulation fit and the vapour barrier complete. The walls and roof are in excess of the same insulation you would get from having 4" of loft insulation in your home. We are hoping to shoot some thermal imaging footage when we return to the Truma factory to prove how well it performs. Look out for that video soon.

[@flashback9966]

Proper job Greg. Even your noggins look wonderful:)

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you mate, how are you getting on with the transit build?

[@flashback9966]

Not good I'm afraid, the van broke down and has been stuck for ages at Ford for repair. Which ment I couldn't work on it. Finally got the van back yesterday. It needed four new fuel injectors, since all the originals were corroded. How does this happen on a brand new van with just 500 miles on clock? Since I want to get the van re-classified as a MotorCaravan by the end of August, I just don't have enough time to do my planned detailed build. So as of today, I'm going to knock up a rough kitchen unit, bed and wardrobe in old ply, add some cushions and curtains and hope this is enough to get it passed. If this is sucessful, I then qualify for cheaper insurance and the vans value will have inceased enormously. I can then rip out the crap stuff and do a proper job as originally planned. There maybe a silver lining here since I can test out the layout on the old ply and make adjustments without wasting good wood. Which makes me wonder, have you got your van re-classified before you leave on your European adventure? And finally you seemed to have gained a very pretty assistant:)

[@GregVirgoe]

Time is the one thing that you need bucket loads of doing these builds properly. That is very strange about the injectors, guessing it was all covered by your warranty? I will get our reclassified before we leave and that's the only thing that could hold us up. It's currently SORN and got no MOT while we do the build. Lots to sort out still. I heard that there was a bit of a wait to get them back as it's become so popular. Thankfully my dear mum has kindly offered to put us up for a few weeks if needed. Our house is definitely going on the 7th July no matter what so the clock is ticking loudly. Oh and yes, meet Louarnna (Lou) my beautiful partner for 17years now :D Trying my hardest to get her more involved but she's very camera shy. She does really like the festivals and is so much happier talking in person.

[@flashback9966]

Sounds like some military style planning has been going on here. I'm impressed. I get nervous just catching the IOW ferry:( Tell Lou not to worry about the camera, us campers are just a bunch of harmless idiots!

[@PastorManningPhD]

Sorry about binge watching all your vids and endless likes mate, apologies but enjoying it too much not to show the little appreciation I can

[@GregVirgoe]

Please do not apologise, I'm glad to see you are enjoying the videos and thanks for watching

[@pardal_timburi]

I will base my project on your teachings! (Vou basear meu projeto nos teus ensinamentos!)

[@GregVirgoe]

I'm glad that they are useful to you.

[@malteweinreich8755]

Hiy Greg, Lovely work on the Van Mate well done :-)

[@GregVirgoe]

Thank you very much Malte Weinreich

[@bpcardella]

It looks AMAZING. I wish you'd been a little more detailed about how you made the initial cardboard guide for the bottom shelf of the cupboard.

[@GregVirgoe]

Hello Beth, very sorry, I took some footage but the video angle and sound was rubbish so I couldn't use it. I'll do a video this weekend just on "Scribing" awkward shapes because there are a few tips and tricks which will help you. Thanks for your comment and for supporting my channel

[@bpcardella]

Greg Virgoe thank you. Much appreciated.

[@sunnycampers4249]

Wow! You're cutting the internal corners on the board freehand with a jigsaw. I may have to make a jig for this. Thanks Greg ✔️😊

[@GregVirgoe]

Sunnycampers yes mate, take it nice and slow and let the blade do the work don’t force it. You can smooth it with a file and apply trim over so it’s not too bad. 😀

[@benadams2692]

Great video as usual! Quick question as I don’t think you mentioned it in video, apologies if I missed it and you did, what thickness ply did you use? Thanks

[@karlbartelt3939]

Hi Greg a tip for the future, the spray on adhesive compared to the roll on brush on version sometimes has a lower temperature rating for adhesion. I had a problem where I used the spray on to redo the headlining of my girlfriends car, it didn't last Summer before it started to pull away. I redid it with a rolled/brushed on version of the same adhesive and I've had no problem. This might only be an issue for hotter countries but it's important to look at the temperature rating of glues when gravity and heat are an issue :)

[@GregVirgoe]

Hi Karl, this one is rated to 120degC I would have thought that would be ok 👌🏼 it does stick like s?&@ to a blanket.

[@AcheForWake]

Greg Virgoe I concur!

[@karlbartelt3939]

Yeah it wasn't untill I had the failure and looked at the back of the can and it said 60-80degC and a car in the Sun here in Oz can get funkin hot. So like I said, I think it's only a problem for hot countries :)

[@adamgc73]

Where did you get the adhesive from mate ? And what's the name of it please. I want to re do the headlining on my car

[@karlbartelt3939]

It is generally called "Contact Adhesive" because you spray it on both surfaces, wait a few minutes then 'contact' the two pieces together. In Australia its called Kwik Grip made by Sellys. As Greg's use a spray glue with a high temp rating I hope he gets back to you with the name of the glue he used.

[@andrewcharlton2709]

amazing greg, but still I'm confused how to scribe properly so it fits exactly the van, its the one thing I see nobody explaining properly

[@GregVirgoe]

Watch my furniture video I explain it there. Also the kitchen counter top I explain it there too

[@andrewcharlton2709]

@@GregVirgoe thanks Greg must have missed that video

[@john9291]

you are doing a really nice job, beautiful finish, very professional. I can't say my conversion is as well thought out :) I have a 2006 Sprinter and am interested in your headliner shelf. At the front did you just screw into the headliner itself, what type of screws. For the side you must have slipped that second piece of timber around the outside of the headliner and screwed outwards into it ?

[@bjbhehir]

Professional!! Beautiful work!! Does anyone know where you can order some of that lightweight furniture board in America? Thanks for taking the extra time to make all these amazing video's!!

[@nicholaswilks2194]

Hi, love the series! I'm just starting a Crafter MWB conversion. How did you secure the shelf at the rear? To to B pillar?

[@richardwelsh4489]

Thanks for another great video, I'm thinking about making the overhead shelf with a bit added on to make a bed for my little ones. The extra bit would fold up during the drive. Do you think this is possible if i can reinforce the shelf for the extra weight. Thank for your time. regards Richard

[@Memyselfandvan]

Superb Greg, well done, I just wish I could find a supplier of these board that ship to Finland. I may need to look into boat building sites/companies here as there's a lot of boats here with the thousands of lakes we have.

[@GregVirgoe]

Hello Michael, the marine and boat building industry is a fantastic place to search for anything van related. Obviously need to be lightweight and run off 12v batteries for all electrics. Lot of similarities.

[@ollieenzo]

Hi Greg, in terms of the insulation around the bulkhead is this just rock wool pushed in the gaps? Is there any risk because of there not being a vapour barrier. Worried about condensation forming and soaking the wool insulation? Thanks and love the video series.

[@MrFatknackers]

great router work greg, how did you go on with this inside of the storage space expecially the van roof. my relay has no beams to fix anything too

[@chrisakrill2089]

Just a thought Greg, would it be worth cutting a matching template for each piece out of plywood, you would then have a master set of your van conversion. You could then have this duplicated and market it as a kit for people wanting to do the same? Great video as usual, looking forward to the next instalment!

[@GregVirgoe]

I would imagine that even the same model vans are very slightly different in their dimensions. I have held onto that cardboard template for now as it took a couple of hours to get right. :D

[@giridharg82]

At 5:10 - did you screw the board to the van wall directly?

[@th3kn0t]

Hi Greg. First off, your videos are amazing and I've followed your build process extensively! They are so informative, detailed and a joy to watch. I'm about to make a cab shelf for my Sprinter, although I cheated and bought a paper template online. One question I have though is how do you transition the angled cuts from the shallower angle on the sides of the shelf to the almost 45 degree cut on the front edge?

[@GregVirgoe]

Make them all at the steeper angle. You will not see the slope above from the underside, just the leading cut edge. 👍🏼😃

[@GinzerG]

Hello and thanks for another very helpful video. I have one question. Is it enough solid when you screw directly to tapecirung? I need to build it in my Mercedes T1 and one option is to cut the tapecirung and place shelf on the car body. Thank you

[@danielouellette5952]

Beautiful job. I'm wondering how you did the framing in order to screw the top part of front panel to the van?

[@bertuspa3grn]

hello Greg thanks for the nice clip .my question what did you do about the 28 mm gap behind the front panel. Myself building a campervan with a VW Crafter h2 l3 bj 2012 and solved it with a strip of plywood. Thanks hope to see you mayby on some camper place

[@martinyardy3213]

Sorry if this has been asked all ready, but did you insulate and seal the area above the factory roof liner in the cab? If not how will you prevent condensation forming in the storage locker?
