(all tools ate taken off my van every night)
Hello and thankyou for watching this video.
in this video i finally rack out my van , i show you exactly how i go about with my van racking build.
this was a while ago so modifications have been made but i still show everything.
having this racking for a couple months i really wish i done pocket screw method so i could easily make adjustments and move shelves up and down but this build still works very well for me.
this video did take a while to make so if you could press that like and subscribe button it would be very much appreciated.
these videos take a while to make so my scheduel with posting has been a bit all over the place however with me posting once every 2 weeks I hope to create higher quality videos and not put so much stress on myself.
all constructive criticism is much appreciated and if you have any tips on how I can improve my videos please do let me know.

mate i watch your videos because of your personality and how you and your apprentice interact with us so it mostly about you we want you to talk , its good to see the job being done right , i have been it the wood working industry for 30 years as a cabinetmaker and joiner so i have done most things , its a relief to see a young lad doing a first rate job these days and bringing another lad up with him , thank you

its about time you tackled sorting your van out,i honestly dont know why you took so long .you will see the benefits very quickly knowing where everything is saves a lot of wasted time searching for tools can be spent on production not to mention possible damage to expensive equipment.looks so much better and more professional when you arrive at a customers house.

@wolfiesmith7674 7 ай бұрын

Racked a few vans out over the years and one thing I always do is create a false floor. In my current hi cube transit custom the floor is about 12” depth split into 3 levels. Bottom level is divided into sections for storage of different lengths of timber (skirts, floor boards, 3x2, mop stick etc) and is similar to your level storage idea where as the dividers are shorter nearest the side door so as I can flick out any shorter lengths that migrate to the bulkhead. Middle level is for full 8x4 sheets of ply/OSB and top level is for upvc trim, cabinet end panels etc. This system allows me to have plenty of spare materials in the floor + racking either side of the van and still have room to carry a few doors/sheets etc in between the racks. One thing I will say is that no matter how much I plan my racking, it constantly evolves as my work changes and different tools come and go and I’m currently head scratching about how I can incorporate a slide out work bench into my false floor 😁

Looking forward to doing a proper racking job once I upgrade to a larger transit. I've been making do with just the big void in my Peugeot Partner for nearly a year, but it's a nightmare trying to find tools and materials when it gets horribly cluttered. And it wastes time and money with trying to find my gear or buying duplicate materials because they are never to hand. But for the time being I'm going to make do with some very basic racking in my crappy little transit.

I like the out takes. Maybe plan what your going to say before you say it. I think because your growing you business and channel at the same time this will all be a learning curve. So just keep working on it. People love storage ideas, custom furniture, home renovations. So maybe more of that. I know hanging doors gets a bit old.

Van racking looking great! Would be nice to see some dust extraction out the front for your neighbor's benefit. What really surprised me was paying £24 for 2 tubes of adhesive - it might be worth bulk buying multiple tubes at a time for discount i.e 12 tubes stixall £45ish and saves time as you have them on hand when needed 👍🏻 subscribed to your new channel 🔨

@craigfentonplumbing4973 10 ай бұрын

Was gunna say same. I buy by the box. Think I last paid £50 for stixall. Same with silicone and other consumables.

Carpentry is an amazing skill to watch, I would set cameras in the room of work at higher locations plus add a little more lighting, at the start of the project do a signature start for video something that is you which creates a trend for yourself. Include more long Timelapse’s with intermediate breaks where you narrate where you are at that stage. The more raw the video is in regards to how live it can feel the better so making mistakes and showing them allows people to relate to you which creates a personal investment for those watching. I would also recommend including something which you do in each video that’s unique which is possibly controversial to build discussion between the videos also !! Generally think your doing an amazing job so keep it up fella !!
