Me again Paul I am enjoying watching your Campervan build, I’ve got a old 1996 Hymer I’ve had it for about 12 years it’s been great but you seem to always spending money on it and when I see all the builds on KZfaq and what you can do I would do what your doing so keep it up and enjoy it once you’re done and traveling about doing a bit of wild camping up here in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 so big thumbs up to you and your misses 👍👍👏👏🚍

Hi Paul and wife (forgot your name sorry) are you fitting Solar panel?. Just a thought before you finish the ceiling and Batteries/electrics. If not, you should consider being a wild camping couple. Go anywhere without worry of power. Van looking cool, not a lover of the cladding myself, but seems a popular choice, probably for it's easy fit etc. Glad you're not boring us with the video length like some do.To the point content. Quality as always⭐️👍

This is looking great! A very good choice for the lights. If you want to do yourself a favor, make a rough wiring diagram, so that if you have some repairs to do, you can look up the wires on paper and don't have to pull the wood off the walls.

You are quite handy, Paul. Even though you don't read the instructions for the dimmer before you put up the ceiling boards (not sure what you call it in english). You do land on your feet eventually. Just kidding. It is all coming along very nicely :-)
