[@Lorfarius]

That table is genius. So obvious and def useful!

[@urbanarkoverland]

I know right. Check out my video dedicated to it. Such a great product 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ABloodyEyeFull]

I got 2 Gelert Bug Zappers just before lockdown, my 2 still work brilliantly, definitely not just a novelty item!

[@urbanarkoverland]

Yes lad. Awesome aren’t they.

[@OurVanTales]

Mate, the thumb nail had me double taking. I like that…..alawt! Great vid too 👊🏼

[@urbanarkoverland]

Ha ha. Thanks mate. Hoping people double take and come on inside ha. I’ll check your latest out today pal 👍🏻

[@simontonks8903]

Excellent content with great ideas , no messing about and straight to the point keep the videos coming inspiring me to get my arse in gear and finish mine thanks so much 👍🏼

[@urbanarkoverland]

Thank you for this comment. Was a conscious effort to cut to the chase. I am trying to make my videos as watchable as possible. That’s the whole point. So thanks for noticing 👍🏻

[@leearnold2832]

am definitely making a stainless steel table for my truck like that an the bug zapper is a great idea

[@urbanarkoverland]

Nice one mate. Tyre table is aaaawwweesome.

[@sharky4078]

See you next Tuesday 😆😆 Been following you on Insta last few years as I convert my own LWB sprinter and just discovered your youtube vids. Very good, well done that man!

[@urbanarkoverland]

Ha ha. Cheers mate 👍🏻

[@andrewsutton871]

Brilliant never thought of using my outside shower to clean the cadac also will be looking for bug zapper😃

[@urbanarkoverland]

Ha ha. Bug zapper link in description. The exact one.

[@chrislee1099]

Got the mozzi zappa mine lasts a couple of days on , also got mesh for the doors that helps has well Brill vid love the table 👌

[@urbanarkoverland]

👍🏻

[@JamesWilliam70]

Deffo need one of those bug zappers. I'd use it during sleep inside the van only, otherwise the whole field is going to turn your zapper into one of those rotating doner kebab cookers.

[@urbanarkoverland]

Ha ha. Be careful. I had one that looks similar. But was pants. Make sure it looks just like that. Can be a diff shade of green. Link in description

[@TerryManitoba]

Awning - after 25 months in my van - Never wanted one. tire table - PITA - get a drop down instead Chair - I've got the exact chair - after several tweeks - Love it Gas thingy - I chose to NOT use gas - This is 2024 so I put my big boy pants on and use Lithium batteries. Zapper - gotta get me one of those without the light

[@urbanarkoverland]

You should start a channel. I hate everything 🤣

[@TerryManitoba]

@@urbanarkoverland Here's da t'ing Son. If you actually crossed a border with ur shinny RV you would find out real quick like dat Propane is a PITA to get when you actually do some travel'n. I spent 5 months ih SW Usa - I did not see a single of those Janky tire tables. You want me to s'plain Y ur udder "must Haves" "Suck @$$"🤡

[@realdoors8955]

Great video the advice is gold. I like the way you edit your posts as well especially this one with the times on and links to website s do you do this yourself. Interested as I run a business and are always looking for ideas for creative content. Also converting a crafter at the moment and your videos are very valuable for advice and tips etc. keep up the good work

[@urbanarkoverland]

Thanks for your comment. Thanks for watching. Yes I do it all myself. Try to learn a tiny bit more for each video. Self taught via KZbin tutorials 😂

[@elizabethjbanks]

Just found your channel. Dreaming of vanlife some day 😉 Many thanks for the tips & inspiration.

[@urbanarkoverland]

Thank you very much for tuning in and commenting. I’m not full time Vanlife. I have way too much stuff 😂

[@hannahgoddard6753]

Love the tyre table, will be investing in one of these too!

[@urbanarkoverland]

Hey sorry. EBay doesn’t let you leave contact details or even say the word contact. Was just trying to communicate easier in case you wanted advice. If you find me on insta you could even send pics etc 👍🏻

[@hannahgoddard6753]

Ahaaaaa now I understand 😂

[@moonies414]

I recommend a compressor On-board let them BFGoodrich up and down whenever you want and blow out that sand at the beach

[@urbanarkoverland]

That’s a great idea. Thanks for your suggestion. 👍🏻

[@MOB34M]

Just been watching owlvans, you have probably heard of them doing what you do, but if you haven’t, they have some nice stuff, their wheels look next level

[@urbanarkoverland]

Yeah defo heard of them. Wasn’t aware they did wheels though. It’s the duty and delivery that’s a killer

[@JonathanVuillemin]

Format and content of your videos is really improving on every post at the moment. You also seem to become very natural in front of the camera 😆 ! Great stuff! Keep on the good work!

[@urbanarkoverland]

Thank you for this. Genuinely. Because more and more late night learning is involved. Appreciate it 👍🏻

[@apeadventurevans]

Awesome mate love the zapper you gifted me back in the day 🐝 🐜🪲🐛🚐

[@urbanarkoverland]

Gifted you that. Then lost mine ha. Only recently found it. Phew

[@apeadventurevans]

@@urbanarkoverland haha my mates dad used to own Gelert from Beddgelert 🙂

[@urbanarkoverland]

@@apeadventurevans oh really. That’s random. Never seen that item in Aldi again.

[@strawberryroad1347]

More things to think about... 🤔 I have already thought that if I get a large vehicle, I want the bed along the side, and the shower in the back, so it's accessible from the outside, like if you want to, you could pop open the door, and sort of shower inside outside..🚿😉

[@urbanarkoverland]

All I would say about that is…… waterproofing the rear pillar would be really hard bits hard enough to carpet it. Careful water doesn’t get behind areas and rot ya van. 👍🏻

[@tooyoungtobeold8756]

I have an awning, couldn't agree more about its usefullness, mainly for rain, I have chairs, again essential and the mosquito lamp. Instead of the tyre table, I have a table.

[@urbanarkoverland]

Booooooo. No tyre table ha ha

[@mos_adventure_van]

Love the fast flowing content you’ve shared in this one buddy…some great ideas…think I’ll be picking up the bug zapper for the Pyrenees 👏🏼

[@urbanarkoverland]

I really appreciate this comment pal. Tried to cut out any dead wood. A lot of attempts to do stuff in one take ha. The bug zapper soooo good. Use the link below and I may even get a cookie ha

[@mos_adventure_van]

@@urbanarkoverland yea awesome that’s exactly how it came across bud. People love the facts 🤘🏻

[@urbanarkoverland]

@@mos_adventure_van thanks pal 👍🏻

[@paulhowes3788]

Fantastic content as always. The tyre table has always caught my eye in your videos. I think I'll have a go at making one this winter.

[@urbanarkoverland]

It works an absolute treat. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Bang on.

[@urbanarkoverland]

Thanks pal 👍🏻

[@Pit8800]

Good stuff 👍🏻. Where's your rear wheel carrier tho, did I miss something in previous videos haha

[@urbanarkoverland]

Check out the eyes on Pete ha ha. Have a GECKO VANS one on way 👍🏻

[@xylo66]

Thanks Aiden. Great one as usual ( this is Destination Destiny ; ignore my avatar here ). Can you also recommend a gas ring please ? Or recommend a supplier for a gas ring? The one I have weighs far too much and too heavy to lug around. Cheers

[@urbanarkoverland]

Thank you matey. The one I lug around is pretty substantial to be fair. It’s cast iron. I like it coz it’s sturdy and won’t collapse while cooking. Apparently the thing to have is a cadac I think it’s called. These are really popular. I may give one a go. Because I genuinely always cook outside. 👍🏻

[@warwickwolf3999]

New sub👍🏻 love the outdoor ideas but cooking and washing up outside in the depths of winter can’t be much fun 🤔

[@urbanarkoverland]

Ah nah. Please understand that it’s all time and place. Have all these facilities inside the van. And yes,,, it’s weather dependant 👍🏻 thanks for sub. And commenting.

[@advanturemagazine]

That tyre table is legit

[@urbanarkoverland]

Honestly love it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@advanturemagazine]

@@urbanarkoverland Where do you store it generally?

[@urbanarkoverland]

@@advanturemagazine folds down pretty well to be honest. Have a video on the table alone. I put it in the back and then stick my bags of wood on it. And firepit etc 👍🏻

[@markreynolds127]

Great video. Have you got a link for the bug zapper please

[@urbanarkoverland]

It’s in the description below the video 👍🏻

[@nicknoxx]

Another great vid.

[@urbanarkoverland]

Thank you. Appreciate that 👍🏻👍🏻

[@RB-lt8kt]

Go Outdoors and Amazon stock bug zappers and they are brilliant., life saver. You need to remove dead bugs.

[@urbanarkoverland]

Some work better than others.

[@RB-lt8kt]

@@urbanarkoverland yep

[@timstradling7764]

My Ridgemonkey and my folding toaster !!

[@urbanarkoverland]

Love my ridgemonkey too. Is toaster gas?

[@timstradling7764]

Summit folding stainless steel toaster, sits on the gas hob on a low flame, gauze diffuses the heat. Turn the bread to do the other side. Simple but very efficient. Packs down simply. Less than £6 on EBay

[@urbanarkoverland]

@@timstradling7764 nice one. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻

[@angeladawn805]

I'm a former Brit living in New Zealand, camping has strict rules, such as not dumping grey water from washing, or dishes, as our fauna & flora are impacted by such things. Food particles would attract rats etc. How are things in the UK?

[@urbanarkoverland]

Um….. that rule is more of an etiquette thing. It’s just good practice not to. Over here you drive over a drain and let it go. 👍🏻

[@grahamunderwood9353]

in times of drought water companies tell people to water gardens with grey water

[@jkoobs1]

Hi there, love your videos. Do you happen to have a video on how you made your bed system? Thanks, Jared

[@paul__burrows]

Im on the fence about fitting an awning to our van. How are they in the more typical UK weather of wind and rain?

[@urbanarkoverland]

Ah man. I can’t be without mine. If it’s like. Stormy winds. Best putting it away. But typical horrible weather. It comes into its own. Love having door open on van and watching the rain in the open air rather than hiding away 👍🏻

[@lamarrharding4776]

Have you considered a wrap around awning that shades the front or back of your vehicle? I think the Ausies call them 270 awnings.

[@urbanarkoverland]

@@lamarrharding4776 yeah. Catch the wind well ha

[@ProjectCamper]

Hi bud, can you open the side door with the tyre table on the NSR wheel

[@urbanarkoverland]

Hi mate. Yeah. Lwb more so than mwb. Check out the tyrevtable video. But more in depth. Remember you can always use front tyre 👍🏻

[@BrianHotsauceBauer]

Question. Do you feel like if the awning was electric that youd use it more often? Im debating getting the f45s, but wondering if i should also get the electric motor with it

[@urbanarkoverland]

It not being electric doesn’t phase me. 👍🏻
