Vanbuild Disaster - I BROKE IT! 🤦‍♂️ Day in the Life

[@teresakronvall7030]

How many of us were saying STOP?😮😢

[@txcowpatty]

Lol, I screamed, Matthew, NO!!!!

[@MsVC-cs8ks]

@@txcowpattyso did I, 😮

[@OneUGLYbstrd]

Wouldn't be a build without some carnage..the gods have spoken...got that out the way..all good from here on out!(knocking on Wood!)

[@karenbreslauer2053]

Stop !! Stop !! Stop !! It was funny though !! ??! QUESTION ?? If all the mechanics / electrical are in the front of the bed there is no room for the long storage draw you spoke of… where is your storage ?? Karen from Florida 🌴💕

[@greenrayascension2527]

You know some of us were yelling at the screen as you backed up! 😊😂

[@graceful6894]

LOL yes I yelled

[@naomidonovan-perry2667]

Yep me too.

[@vickyf8807]

lol yes I was too!!

[@LakeGeorgeLass]

No, no, no! Close the Thule!

[@douglaswhite1306]

Quality content, Quality content. Some may not like construction videos but I do and I'd rather watch this than live chat reading and answering people's content.

[@angelapietras1235]

I watch a lot of channels, but live chats is one part I don’t watch.

[@Katiedid1975]

Yeah, sort of a crying shame you didnt hear us screaming about the Thule in advance in unison. Although, I kept thinking you were going to fake it by remembering at the last second and stop, put it in park, and get out mumbling to yourself. for comedic emphasis. Instead, you had to go and prove to us again, that you ARE human.😅

[@riariaria]

The minute he took the ladder down without closing it first, I knew his Thule was in trouble. I couldn’t help myself. I just started saying, “No stop, wait, no, no, no!” 😢

[@mattca353]

"What could possibly go wrong?" he said, just before it happened 😅.

[@virginia_in_the_rearview]

Lucky 2.0 is coming along nicely!

[@DrKerr..]

Was I the only one shouting, "Matthew the box" Made my wife jump 😂😂😂 Coming together nicely Matthew.

[@williammullensarge]

The key Matt is forward momentum!!!! The amount of satisfaction as each minor job gets done is nothing like the satisfaction when the complete job is done!!

[@MelissaJohnson-s7k]

Matthew lucky is looking great and penny really likes that scratching post you got her 😊 Thanks for sharing ❤😊

[@pawprint8167]

😂😂😂crunch😂 omg I laughed, I thought to myself "that would be me"😂😂... Shit happens !!!😆

[@susanh3342]

Can't wait to see the completed Lucky! I don't know how you are doing this with your back the way it is 😢 I understand your pain!

[@sherriemontgomery5247]

So I've been coughing and sneezing for past two days and feeling very tired and annoyed.... But then you came on my tv and your backing up into garage scene I started to scream at you and then fell into a fit of laughter that hurt so bad that I laughed even more... Thanks for making my day.... 😂😂😂

[@Lilrosa-cs1pn]

I respect the fact that you are doing all of this work yourself - electrical, construction, etc. Good for you! Keep at it!

[@VaguelyMeandering]

Oh my goodness. RIP Marketplace Thule. At the beginning of the video I noticed the carpenter pencil in the Mystic jacket. That was a bit of a tease from you, I think, a hint of things to come. I love watching you puzzle something together. And then the delight on your face when it works as you wish it to. Perhaps the reason you're feeling less stressed is that you know, worst case scenario, that if you have to change something, you absolutely can. Excellent work sir, excellent work! Princess Penelope leave her perch for dinner. Adorable as always.

[@peggybaker69]

Oh my I was actually saying stop Matthew. Closing my eyes as you backed, and I hear this crack crunch sound. Doing a great job on the box for your bed. Enjoying your rebuild Matthew, doing a great job.

[@kimbrueck7811]

Oh no Matthew! I’m sure we were all screaming STOP as we watched you start going in reverse. Totally loving the rebelled. ❤❤

[@albertaadventures7750]

Omg I screamed so hard to try and tell you to close the Thule lol. As if you could hear me 🫣

[@jofromnyc]

We all screamed stop!!!!😂

[@zekecanada5244]

I give you great credit for sharing your learning curve mishaps. After 30 years in the construction renovation business...WE ALL go thru this fun stuff. Thank you for sharing your humanity. Plus a few good laughs..😅😅 There's a reason experienced people like to gut a reno. Also, even with all my experience, the electrical still freaks ME out. The whole grounding thing. I once blew up a perfectly good ford van....installing a stereo....😂😂

[@ricebike]

What I learned from his demolition, I didn't give enough credit to the wood glue 😅 stronger than I thought Ouch with the radio mishap in your experience; I took dont want to make an electrical mistake as bad as that 😢

[@maryrinks8383]

Lol 😂how did you forget it was still open. ?? You moved the ladder. ❤❤

[@ricebike]

He's working thru back pain? 😢

[@Seams_in_the_Wild]

​@@ricebikethat will do it!

[@wanrapea]

Looks like a great relocation for the battery, Eco flow, & electric! Love this constructing! I'm gonna miss that candy drawer! Maybe you can make a secret cubby away from Lil' B! Good job!

[@WalkswithBender]

"there goes the camera..." don't know why that was so funny but it reminds me of my day today. looks like progress :)

[@rockysmumakagma]

Like most people have mentioned here, I think we were all screaming at you to close the lid 😂 There was nobody at the lumberyard, it’s like nice, can’t get that stuff down here done so quickly haha. Gotta love little towns, we so would love to move to one someday. Great job with relocating the battery, etc. looks great and clean so far 👏 Awaiting on the next video! Cheers 🍻

[@preparingthebridefaithoutr6884]

I applaud you Matthew👏 ...as you could have chosen not to show us that 'lil' accident with Lucky. DEFINITELY says a lot about your character, openness and human vulnerability. One of my concerns while pulling my travel trailer, is that the rooftop a/c unit won't clear the overpass bridge!😮 ...YIKES, freaks me out every time 😳👀🤭. Another GREAT video/vlog!👍🤗💖😇

[@preparingthebridefaithoutr6884]

Heyyyyyyy PRETTY Penny!👍🤗💖😺 ...and Sheba!👋

[@danielellington8407]

Ouch camera fell, I need workman’s compensation for that! lol. Glad everything fits. It was weird not to see a lot of Penny! Hi Penny. Stay safe Stay Warm, Keep your sanity, the important thing for building!

[@lynnfrost5244]

Take lucky to the place where you get the wood.this way,yall can double check the height of the wheelwell,and the diesel whole you are there.

[@summoner2100]

Interesting seeing the teardown and rebuild. The battery compartment is looking much better, and easier to manage.

[@glennismossey6976]

Saw that coming!🤣

[@preparingthebridefaithoutr6884]

BEAUTIFUL serene overhead opening drone shot, simply lovely!🙌 ...and then you go and back Lucky into the carport and 'crunch' your rooftop storage!😮. I screeched, my heart sank, my blood pressure went up and I just about lost my breath!😳 ...SOME PEOPLE'S KIDS!👀. Sincerely though ...I do hope all is well👍🤗💖😇.

[@preparingthebridefaithoutr6884]

🤭☺️

[@kathywrightjohnson6804]

Hi Matthew!

[@richardmacphee2367]

Every time I click on your channel I have to re subscribe 🥺 but I’ll keep doing it cause your channel is pretty bad ass 👍🏼😎

[@janetnegrillo5413]

I was yelling at the TV, Matthew Matthew it’s open it’s open❤❤❤

[@downtoearth1950]

In Australia a 2x2 is a real 2inch x 2inch. Our timber sizes are true

[@janet1744]

Ours are not.😂

[@naomidonovan-perry2667]

Good evening Matthew, Penny and Sheba.

[@patlodge8420]

Excellent video Matthew you take care of your back xx

[@Yvonneb_]

It's gonna be amazing Matthew xx

[@denisemolo263]

omg, how many of us have done the same thing....close the lid before backing in ...I've learned 😂

[@angelapietras1235]

I cannot wait for the end results Matthew I always enjoy your videos.

[@blairinhemet]

loving the rebuild--looking good

[@UrdnotChuckles]

I'm just glad you didn't shear the Thule right off! Heck, hopefully it is fixable. Also check that box of electrical things you stashed away. Maybe you tossed the feet for the inverter in there?

[@sunshine47476]

Hi Matthew and Penny!!

[@piersstronge1441]

..and thousands watched the ladder get put aside and collectively watched in horror, all yelling NONONONONO MATTHEW NO!

[@ObjDriven]

Hey if you plan on keeping the ecoflow in the spot where your diesel heater was you might want to put some of the insulation board under it otherwise in the winter the battery won't last as long since the cold will drain it faster

[@LifeWithBillSiff]

Looking foward to seeing it together

[@ronfast703]

Maybe a note to Future Matthew less is enough when it comes to construction adhesive 😂 unless it’s never coming apart again. It probably will 👍

[@TLAR24]

Why would you put the bus bar and stuff on the “Floor” of that box and not put that grey board standing up like that inverter? Floor storage is important I would think?

[@karenbreslauer2053]

Diddo

[@LakeGeorgeLass]

Hello Mathew!

[@k8barkley]

Loving this van rebuild❤ Thank you for sharing all of this❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@MsSoozy]

Electrical is all Greek to me but looks like you are making progress, sounds like you are, the design plans look good. Be good to your back!

[@Ny_kellz]

was sitting here watching matt back up and saying out loud close your storage great video matt nice choice of music. cant wait to see the improved build so excited!!!!

[@glennismossey6976]

Anxiously waiting to see what you broke!

[@melisa8256]

Me too until… I read the comments 😢

[@helene1779]

I hope you have a good soak in the tub! Take care and stay safe!❤️🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼❤️🐈🐈‍⬛❤️

[@Jaime-hi9vk]

Exciting stuff. Watching you clear the decks to rebuild, refresh and revamp your tiny home. It will be so much better I think. Canada is a beautiful country, will visit one day😊. Greetings from the UK

[@TamaraShayna]

Dovetail, that's the "puzzle".

[@laurastewart2418]

What?! I can't look! I ll have to watch later......hope whatever happened wasn't too drastic😮

[@laurastewart2418]

Well sheesh! THAT was a bummer! Storage box....crunch....sigh😮

[@lisaking9659]

Quality content! Another great video!❤

[@christinamann3640]

I bet editing Matthew was watching the screen with his head shaking slowly in exasperation 😂 ‘some people’s KIDS.’ It was an almost perfect comedic setup, too. 👌

[@tanbl6746]

I must say I was very intrigued by your van built project and watched this video with great interest. Was quite sad when it ended. Can't wait for Part 2.

[@canadiannat8960]

🍀🌼🍀🌼🍀 It's great to see how your brain works and you having fun with the build. Listen to your back.

[@Camaro-Sean]

The camping table returns!

[@BigV96220]

I was waiting for Mathew to get close and then in those now familiar 🤔 words of his Now Everyone just calm down and say yes I did see it But NO lol poor Mathew 😢😂❤❤❤

[@nappigal]

Oh Matt! 4:56 😢 the poor Thule.

[@chicoPGCA]

Mat you could buy a roll of plumbing strapping. To mount your stuff 😊

[@LittleMo777.]

Looking good!😊

[@donaldfrazier5244]

Matt have you ever heard of a kreg jig it’s worth looking into! They make nice pocket holes for joining wood!

[@whereswendy8544]

Oh my, what a ruckus! Glad you will have it all in improved order.

[@dp1091]

Hi Matthew and Penny :)

[@doctordogtoffee3832]

Talking about doing a dump run while buying toilet roll 😂

[@Terrylevi-ts6ez]

Thanks for the heads up,I wasn’t subscribed to your channel,Google sucks

[@gingw7333]

"Ain't got no legs!" The exact quote from a patient the surgeon and I found on the floor one evening and the surgeon asked what he was doing down there. He looked up at the Dr as if he was an idiot, since the surgeon was the one that amputated them. Actually, the patient had forgotten (he had phantom pain in both legs) and tried to stand up from his chair. We all laughed til we cried at the man's response, including the delightful gentleman himself.

[@mycats5254]

Had to re-subscribe Friday, Monday and again today. I am finding that I get unsubscribed from channels I watch frequently, as opposed to ones I don't watch often. It also seems to happen more on my TV than on my phone. Just very strange since I am always searching for your channel on the TV🤔

[@marigauthier3475]

Don't forget about mice and other critters.

[@sheilacaine]

I’m laying here thinking hmmmm no way are we about to see a version of National Lampoons Vacation, Nah he’s going to remember then BOOM. No way. There needs to be a way you can hear us yelling NO MATTHEW DONT DO IT. 😂😂😂❤

[@lindahillgartner5045]

I sure was yelling

[@chuckyleeray1704]

Could use that part as a couch and the have your bed behind it I think that would look awesome. Just a thought can’t wait to see the full rebuild when it’s done.

[@laurastewart2418]

Tell me that wasn't the candy drawer laying out by its lonesome.... meow to the cats...and congrats to the van work...😊

[@kerrymcclaren3082]

Thank you sir 💚💚💚

[@Shawnee845]

Nice work so far really

[@jaaxe8129]

Dang! I've been there. Crunch is never a good sound for the Thule! 😞

[@GypsyJvan]

thanks..

[@bobtailedtrucker2521]

Go the quick and easy way to plug that hole. Old license plate, silicon, and tappers

[@rachadventuresinliv]

Oh no yup there goes the Thule box 😢 Isn't the drawer slide holding in that shelf piece 🤔 Love how you are so quick with your "words" axcess 😂

[@lindamcgowen4597]

WHAT! We don't get to watch the bubble bath???!🤣

[@christinamann3640]

Darn! 😂

Matt, No put it all back it was a great setup

[@luvspin364]

Wow! What a great job you are doing! Planning and making it all come together! It is going to be so nice! So wonderful to see you realize how much you have learned sense your first build! Good for you! God Bless, love your videos! Thanks for posting!

[@Ladythyme]

Uh oh! 😳 OUCH UGGH!

[@authordanigray]

Ah...pee-orities. Ouch...what not to break! Glad you're enjoying what you're doing with your tiny home.

[@kerrymcclaren3082]

That's an interesting track. I dig it.

[@leed119]

👍 To the music again.

[@clintvester9504]

You’re probably beyond it now, but that cross-brace keeping the battery from sliding out could be installed by cutting notches in the rails and making the cross-brace a little longer. That way, the cross brace can be easily lifted vertically if you need to slide that battery out. Same on the other side.

[@shellywelsh2316]

Looking great! What type of under the bed storage are you planning. I think those rolling hinges so you can have the full length roll out of the van would give you so much room.
