Mate, your (understandable) fear of the table saw was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen! Love how you’re just showing it how it is! 😂👍

[@user-zt9cz1li4x]

Will, great video. Batten, 1. leave it as a length. 2. The thickest edge goes next to the silver fence ( straight edge ). 3. Use the push stick on the thickest edge next to the silver fence to finish the cut. 4. Then drill holes as a length. 5. Then cut the batten as desired. This method will save a lot of time and hopefully saves you fingers.

[@krism3781]

OMG I have tears in my eyes from the saw session! But put the blade guard back on, you worry me. I don't want to see your new name of WheresWillfinger! LOL Thank you for sharing your build. You are doing a fabulous job. I like how meticulous and neat you are.

[@jamieroe5292]

I pissed my pants when you glued the wrong side of the wood 😅 I've learned a whole heap from this series and laughed a lot too. Top work buddy!

[@12VoltPlanetTV]

Super glad to have helped Will, Lights look great and we look forward to the rest of the build!

[@robertjohnredrupp2405]

In one ear out another, never forget, RED TO RED ...BLACK TO BLACK...BLUE IT TO PIECES.....👍😆.....another great video 👍

[@imranmajid1978]

Just know that you are fulfilling the dream of each one of us! May the force be with you!

[@LindzandLife]

Oh my days you screaming at the saw I choked on my tea 🤣 I've worked with power tools near since I could walk so I've maybe a slight advantage not sure my own van build agrees 😅 I done my ceiling the same as she's only a med roof but I'm a short arse so works for me to stand in. Wish my videos were half as good and entertaining as yours 🤣

[@michsurfer]

Cut the whole length of the baton for the angle first, THEN cut into length you need

[@ants80]

Will don't ever tell me you are crap at DIY! You are doing a splendid job

[@leehextall6224]

Hahahaha!!! It’s like I’m actually watching myself mate!!! Friggin Awesome!!!

[@anthonyhoran2543]

The screaming made me spit out my coffee 🤣🤣. But in all seriousness respect of the saw will allow you to keep your digits!!!

[@danielmullen3569]

Attach a vacuum cleaner to the table saw and you won’t have such a mess once you finish👍🏻

[@casinodelonge]

He'd have a vacuum cleaner chopped into 5 bits mind....

[@ralpha112233]

There is one, he just stopped using it.

[@sophieandjamie]

It's a right of passage to have a ding on the back doors of the van from a saw related attack - we have one too!

[@GarethSoye]

Will with a new table saw, “I’ve got no idea how to use this” The UK Health Secretary, “Put the NHS on high alert please!”

[@Elkott]

Luckily the NHS is still free...for now

[@YDysgwrAraf]

[Pedant]There's no UK Health Secretary[/Pedant] #That'sDevolved

[@vanilla_vanancie]

I know the feeling - mounting things. I bought a field bed to my camper van. The right hand have been broken once, so not best handstrenght. But I used a crowbar... don’t know Why I had it in the car but... 😁 🙏Thx for the videos, like them 🙏

[@mycandy7680]

i love ur van build series . ur am amateur like me but ur doing it anyway lol thanks for humbling the project… relieves my stress levels thank you

[@rawdysmith4512]

Greetings from the States. It was the squeal when you turned on the saw for me. 😂 The build is coming along nicely. Love your videos.

[@edsteele1134]

Just for when you use it next you should be pushing the peice that's between the fence and the blade The other peice is your waste material so the peice between the blade and the fence is in this occasion the Batton you are using for your roof. Can be good practice to use two push sticks too.

[@ironduke9893]

Yeh I was very concerned when I saw the wood wiggling while he pushed it on the other side

[@iverson2977]

Great tip, I missed that through all the laughing, as concerned as I was for his safety I couldn't help but laugh 😆 shockingly dangerous he definitely requires supervision 😂🤣

[@FrancisSiuChock]

Mate, number one rule using a table saw is never cut anything from the side! Just glad you have all your digits in tact. Another entertaining vid! Stay safe and healthy!

[@Rajarshitlg99]

"Happy days" are on the way ❤️

[@iverson2977]

Hey Will, just a little tip when you next use the table saw stand on the side of the saw blade that the rip fence is on and this also gives you a smoother motion through the blade rather than standing side on, you have better control. Also note that the rip fence should be on the opposite side to your dominant hand to make it easier to use. So left handed stand on the right with the rip fence also to that side of the blade. Hope this helps

[@kenbissell9110]

Hi Will. You need to have the wider piece next to the fence so the waste falls away and you pass the piece you are keeping through with a push stick between the blade and the fence. Keep your fingers well out of the way. Van is looking good.

[@amunchasethesun]

Carpenter Will, at it again! Good work dude, you got it done in the end! I have a fear of table saws too, the piece that you run next to the guide(fence) should be the bit you keep so your angle needs to be the opposite if that makes sense.

[@hetav11]

12:05 now we know what will says while he is out dogging! 😅😉

[@jwjr1988]

Anyone remember home improvement with Tim the toolman Taylor lol its looking good !

[@AdrienneLawrence1]

Will versus the table saw … 🤣. So dang funny. But yeah. It can take yer eye out. 👁 💥

[@enyboy123]

Love the basic electronics Still, those touch-enabled lights will eventually act weird I recommend basic ones with a button

[@RustyRoseAdventures]

Good work will. Dometic do a light strip gutter for the sliding door but it costs over £100 😅😱 I'd love to get a tale saw, don't chop your hand off!

[@Brokmod]

Besides English swearwords, I learn a lot of other stuff from you! 😉😁Greetings from Flatlandia ( The Netherlands )

[@nicovantol7363]

My compliments to your work Will,it's starting to look like a camper more each time we see more off your work. Looking forward to more off your video's !!!

[@chris20years1]

Excellent video and loving the build process and looking forward to next video when more progress is made

[@xwasp58]

Your So right marathon not a sprint take your time stand back after you have finished something and change it if your not happy. Good job Be carful with that saw. frightens the hell out of me

[@fredhill3763]

Hey Will your absolutely hilarious. You may want to look up a u tube vid on how to properly use a table saw.

[@GARY-yu8pc]

Good on you will. Dan is the man pimpin wills van

[@abeygrant8198]

You are comedy gold my friend.. keep it up. Just on our own journey of a self build 😵‍💫

[@bobratliff4402]

Will, it's probably too late now but you could have cut one full length piece of wood and put kerfs on the back side. Then the wood would bend when pressed upward and followed the curvature of the roof perfectly.

[@mphigham1963]

Nice one Will, I`m really enjoying these van build videos as I`m guaranteed a chuckle !!

[@gavinbest9069]

Before you cut any more wood, search on how to set up you table saw. Your side fence is wrong and on the wrong side, hence kick back.

[@STookey22]

If you're ever going to use the table saw for other jobs where you want a cleaner cut (wood that's going to be on show), i would recommend changing the saw blade to one with more teeth and preferably one that's been lazer cut (instead of stamped cut). Hope this helps.

[@cbeadle2508]

You need to push the material that is between the fence and the blade. This should be the good piece that you want to keep, your offcut should be on the other side of the blade. Loving the build though and the willingness to have a go.

[@stevemerricks4500]

Well done Will, loving your journey fella. This one made me chuckle, fair play to you though , your having a go and learning along the way. Top man👍🏻

[@TheHarrip]

Dude you can tell that saw scared you 😉 they ere super dangerous. Especially that cheep thing. Goggles, push sticks, plan and concentration. Fun tho

[@nmartin5551]

I haven’t made it through your intro yet, but I never use the table saw without eye protection. You just can’t predict when it’s going to launch a bit at you or someone/something else. Safety first. The touch lights- cannot get those here in the US. Fortunately I have family across the pond and was able to source those!

[@BigArch6564]

Hoofing efforts Will....cracking vlog buddy!

[@Casualfulltime]

Shows just how big this job is! You are doing great.

[@ngawangsherab9724]

Love the mechanic work bro.

[@GixxerWayne]

🤣🤣🤣 the sound you made when switching on the Titan , great vid, it's coming along nicely, don't rush it , you'll get there , just try and enjoy it . Be lucky

[@pau1phi11ips]

Usually better to have the larger piece of wood next to the fence and push that through. That should stop things firing back on you.

[@yorkshiresfinestpair]

We setting off this Friday the 13th hoping to reach Inverness in that day & then starting the NC500 Sat morning & working east to west around it.. Hopefully will pass you on our travels..

[@peterlori36]

wow . getting serious there boy. when all is done . you are either going to have a smashing looking van . or its going to be a burnt out husk of a van on the side of the road. be careful. make sure you have a power switch to turn off and on . so nothing is left on when you leave the van. good luck and keep on moving.

[@BigAndy500]

NC500 is a great road trip. We did it camping out in the cars and loved every second of it.

[@Dabaldgorilla]

I'm an electrician and honestly before I started I did offroad rigs light bar bumper lights and overland camping setups and wiring up my own rig was so much fun once you get the idea of how all the circuits run it's super easy I bet doing vans would be awesome also one day soon ill do my own camper van

[@shhhaua9426]

Love your humor and honesty!!!🤙🏾 take your time dude

[@theoldhobbit3640]

Great video and very informative. Good that Dan was able to help with the electrics, he's a good mate of mine and boy is he going to make sure we dont forget his appearance on Will's Whereabouts🤣. He definately knows his stuff and you wont go wrong letting him loose in the back of the van. Please put the guard back on the table saw, that is indeed how people loose fingers and eyes........ Take care.

[@wobbleboxadventures]

Great vlog mate. That bloody saw is lethal lol. It will all start to take shape so quick now you got the big jobs done 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

[@danbarnes8178]

Great job Will. Looking forward to seeing the end product

[@shonda___]

Omg I almost pissed myself it went flying. First minute of video and I already love it. Now on to watch the rest

[@denweston5941]

Great vlog Will. I bought one of those Titan table saws but I watched a few KZbin videos on how to use a table saw safely before I had a go. Please put that blade guard back on mate. You only have one set of fingers.

[@carlacowling1789]

Came for the van build, subscribed for the hilarity. I spit my lunch out laughing when you turned the table saw on and squealed! Not to mention, the ideas are clever and I think your process and approach is very similar to mine.

[@allankerr668]

Superb Will! In the process of buying a van myself! And your vids give confidence!👏👏👏👏

[@llorylloyd]

You're absolutely hilarious. A bit dangerous but still. Hello from Austin, Texas, USA

[@debbiekane951]

Your doing amazing. And taking your time doing it will produce a quality build

[@Alivefrom45]

Great video Will, I do like the face you leave in the good the bad and the funny. Keep it up loving watching the progress.

[@nin469]

Bud, you gotta cut with the piece you wanna keep between the fence and the saw blade. 🤣

[@ExpediteTravels]

Looking good So far it'll be interesting to see how the Van build comes along Thanks for the video watch out for those shooting wood band saws

[@corablue5569]

Will- you’ve become the ultimate van builder - Bravo!!!!

[@KevinJones-bt7ib]

I am genuinely looking forward to seeing the end result😁👍👍

[@El-Tel63-Terry.]

Well done Will, kudos to you for showing us warts and all. 👍🏻

[@johnharris6691]

Cut a circle same size of the exstracter hose in the box the saw came in, bingo all sawdust inside box!!

[@slaphead2965]

Those table saws are scary as heck. Good on you mate for grabbing these new skills by the neck. Look forward to the next video. Cheers 😎👍

[@tadeyishu]

Im sure someone probably said this but your cuting on the wrong side of the sawblade, the bit of wood you're wanting is the bit between blade and stock, you need to move the stock/stopblock over and its the slither on the other side, not the stock side , which would be waste wood this should also help stop the wood being spat out, and just in case you've put it together wrong the blade should be rotating towards the wood coming down on it ,not from underneath up, ..... it took me three days to realise i was pushing the wood in from the back! Ah the joys of diy...

[@markpeto4211]

Hi will, really enjoying your build , some advice on your table saw, as everyone is saying waste part of the timber furthest away from the fence, rip your timber to width (on table saw) in long lengths before cutting it to length (chop saw ) &' hey Preston ' no missiles! , set the cut depth of the blade just above the timber thickness & one other thing, keep the crown guard on ......PLEASE !! Keep up the good work

[@garyc1913]

Another hilarious video mate. Thanks for the laugh 😂 your video’s are really useful as I’m planning on van life in about 2 years.

[@8BROWNIE8]

you getting there, no electric shocks or missing fingers. but as you say its no race you take your time and build it how you want by enjoying it! keep up the good work

[@mishmarvel7242]

Really enjoying watching your van slowly come together 😊 And yikes that handsaw looks terrifying 😱

[@ahagan1930]

Dude! You are hilarious, but PLEASE do get a class on the proper use of the table saw before it's pieces of you shooting out the other side. Stay safe!

[@MAVSABRE1]

As a tall man I’m glad to see you’re working out a plan for full standing height. Well done Sir

[@steveporter8925]

well done. your vans coming on great. keep up the great work

[@londonladxxx]

Dan the man 👍🏻 Things coming together nicely mate 👍🏻

[@mansi4899]

What No fajitas !!!😩

[@jonwarb]

Looks good mate! I did the NC500 last year!! I did it in my 2008 Ford Mondeo & slept in the car!! Wasn’t exactly stealthy but I didn’t care! 😆 Only advice I can offer is do it anti-clockwise as the west side of it is WAAAAAY nicer than the East! Do the Applecross pass too! Well worth it!! 😎👌🏼

[@Voltronkun]

Table saws freaked me out in the beginning too. Just play with it a bit and you'll be find. Having that push guide is good choice too.

[@catherineferguson7388]

Hi Will, your doing a great job, your 🚐 is getting there, things take time, leaning as you go, all the best Will, thank you for the video and the advice that goes with it. Take care. 🚐✌️👍🤟🏼xx

[@STookey22]

Advice for future use of a table saw, the bulk of the material that you're putting through the saw should be between the fence and saw, then you reduce the chances of "kick-back". Lower risk of injuries and damage to your van.

[@Bk_MxLife]

Loving the content dude keep up the amzing work

[@sharonpettman1274]

It’s looking good Will….that flying piece of wood made me lol.x

[@mrvito2111]

Funny to see tha youre using blue as the phase and black as neutral, in Spain and most European countries is the opposite x) Nice video btw, keep it up!

[@slipalongtobascus99]

I recently got a tablesaw. It scared the crap out of me. So I watched KZbin videos to understand how to be safer. Watched so many kickback videos it scared me even more. When I saw the clip of you using it i thought, please don't let it happen. A few moments later.... Lol.

[@bulletvivace]

Good idea getting help from an electrician, he did the little things people often forget when building stuff like this. Using the flexpipes, labeling, proper testing, leaving a pull string for later. You did not show any other electrics than the ligthing, are you not having other stuff made? For charging and stuff like that.

[@ivanmccaffrey316]

Being scared of the saw is a good thing. That means you think before you cut! Cut wood not flesh.

[@Boppa1260]

Looking forward to the ceiling build 👍

[@paulcalvert5735]

You make me laugh so much , but please be careful with that table saw and good luck your doing a great job , keep video’s coming .

[@brianjoseph3818]

Another very good video van is coming on well done

[@TransitCustomCamper]

Don’t panic too much 😂 I found the dangerous wasn’t too dangerous on my maiden camper conversion… no smoke no fire = #winning 👍 really liked this and the other videos 😀

[@wemoveforward6413]

Great video mate. That table saw looks terrifying

[@Therandomlifeofmarks]

Will gets a new table saw Renames channel: Will’s fingers whereabouts

[@GG-jq9hb]

Thats a great idea to maximise head space 👌 those tables saws can be a deathtrap, was going to say beware "kickbacks" then you showed how the wood kicked back and hit the van 🤕

[@Anniesrandommoments]

Take your time , do it right 1st time so it lasts. You with that table saw had me actually laughing. Take care and stay safe 🤗

[@xtrax38]

Will and the table saw 👀 brilliant 🤣🤣🤣🤣
