Wottiesvanlife
Австралия
Добавлен 20 май 2019
Welcome to Wottiesvanlife. We are Mark and Alison both 50+ who decided over 2 years ago to sell up. We sold our 3 bedroom house and donated or sold 80% of our possessions to live in our 6 meter self converted Renault Master van. Sick of the rat race we wanted more freedom in our lives with no debt and the choice to work when we "needed" to. Life is for living not for working just to buy stuff we don't need. We have had some challenges and lots of learning but ultimately we are both still laughing and loving life. Lots of adventures ahead for us, come along with us for the ride.
How to repair leaks MAXX AIR FAN | DIY CAMPERVAN
Hey guys, welcome back to wottiesvanlife. So, we seem to have a leak from around our Maxx air fan. With all the rain in Queensland over the past weeks its no wonder that some part of the van was going to succumb to the pressure and let water through. This video shows how we overcame what was definately going to turn into a major issue. We hope you enjoy it.

We have been wanting to make this alteration to our tiny home on wheels since we purchased it in 2017. Up to this point we have had to keep the spare wheel in the garage area taking up valuable storage space, as we have our water tank under the van where the wheel should be....this is the result!

We started the day with no plans in particular so decided to do a couple of chores and we then thought we would take a small road trip. We ended up at a small Queensland town called Canungra not far from the Gold Coast. We spent the night at a local campground and had a little adventure around the area. Hope you enjoy the video....

This is part two of our little trip into the sunshine coast. Previously we had visited The Glass House Mountains and called in at Australia Zoo. Although the zoo was closed due to Covid 19 we were able to take some footage outside. Living full time in our van its nice to be able to get away from our usual Gold Coast surroundings and recharge our batteries! Please enjoy our onward journey.

I know you did this ages ago but would be really interested how this modification has worked for you before I do the same..Cheers
Perfect 👌
The smoke from the first few burns burn is toxic, as the paint peels off, be very careful
SAFETY GLASSES boys, spent 6 hours having a metal filing removed from my eye recently, I have done heaps of these,.... THIS IS NOT A SAFE THING TO DO, do it at your own risk. always fill with water, and leave the water in when making the first cut. If you can't remove the valve, open it right up, there is a little screw on the side, used for filling, unscrew that, you can then fill the tank with water, with the valve on, leave the valve open until you have cut it.
May I know the place of purchase? Link, please.
It's in the video 🙂
@@Wottiesvanlife I've watched the video a few times, and can you link me to the link site or the purchase site? It's because it's the same Masta car as mine.
Looking at the screen, I worked at the factory and I want to know the location, contact information, and site of the factory. I'm inquiring because I don't have any information.
It's interesting, in the video you did not want to stop at the petrol station because it was $1.32. I wish it was that low now
That train is called the XPT. I caught it from Sydney to Coffs Harbour about 20 years ago. I was a smoker at the time. With limited stops, all smokers would pile out onto the platform to smoke a ciggy. We would only have about 30 seconds to smoke
The tap key is the best van life tip ever! Thank you
that's the country for van life i think i live in uk we go to France Spain nice beaches there looks great van
Muy buenas ideas!
Great idea!!! would you share a ph number or contact info of the fabricators that did your spare wheel carrier? I noticed Nats also asked this a few months ago, and I did not see it in the video either. Thank you!!
Love your vids. Subbed. Can you please do a vid on that stove. I've seen them on eBay but I have no idea whether they are any good or not.
I can not believe there is a YT video of these Ozzie gas lockers. This is such cool vid. One criticism? I would have made the door a "'side-opening"' door. Those top opening doors are a pain when trying to get the bottle in and out. ...and ''YES"' did you make a vid on the gas install and the certificate?
Bellissimo ....buon viaggio e tante belle cose dall italia......
Love your idea for the alfresco adjustable table. So practical! Where do you store it when not in use? Your simple drawer locking rods are brilliant! We've watched 100s of van videos but have never seen that before. I wish our van had an overhang so we could do the same. Next time we will be using that. 😊
Great video. Where can I buy this wheel carrier please? Thanks
loved the video, ill be attempting the same gas box tomorrow :) not too much content out there of this so loved it, watched one other guy do it and pretty much exactly the same method as this, so its given me enough confidence to takle it for myself now!! LEGEND!
Let's us know how you get on. Thanks for watching and good luck
Hi do you have a ph number of the fabricators that did your spare wheel carrier?
Hey Reece, you will find all the details you need in the video. 👍
Where is it in the video?
Some of us use the bowls for RV use like that too.
Hey guys what are you waiting for?
I got injured [103 stitches to my head plus more on my body ] when a mate of mine was soldering a petrol tank "BOOM"
I love your attention to detail. Beautiful build!
Thank you and thanks for taking the time to watch, we appreciate it 🙂
Hi, both of you. This was the video I needed to see. I am 49 myself, have a flat but am looking for a van to live in full time for all the same reasons as you just mentioned. I too have decided to take the plunge now and do freelance work on the go. One question... do you have any grown kids?.. if so, was it a tough decision?
Hey Michael, thanks foe watching,
We have a couple of grown up kids but both nearing 30 so they have their own lives. It wasn't really a tough decision in that regard no.
Where are you guys now. Its been awhile?
Hey Pauline, we are currently waiting on parts for our van to come from France for our van. We were told 8 weeks. It's been 4 up to now, so we are off the road at the moment unfortunately.
Love the rear seating area what a fab idea👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you and cheers for watching 👍
Hi guys what have you been up to ??
Hey, we have been a bit quiet, we have been just chilly around the Gold Coast. Our van is in for repairs just now. Waiting on parts from France so it could be a long wait 😪
@@Wottiesvanlife oh no. Where do U stay when u have no van? What’s wrong with the van?
We are at a friend's house for a while. We need a new main fuel line. Having to wait up to eight weeks for parts from France.
@@Wottiesvanlife oh no what a pain.
Great video, where did you get the gas bottle housing?
Thank you. We got it from DIY RV Solutions near Brisbane 🙂
@@Wottiesvanlife many thanks
Wow! That looks great. You have some pretty awesome ideas there. Did you buy the kitchen as a flat pack or was it a 'from scratch' build? Also, next to the toilet, but under the cleaning products... how do you access that space? Loved it so much I liked and subbed. Thanks for sharing Cheers
Hey Shaz, thank you so much for subbing to our channel and your kind words. I am a cabinet maker by trade so I made the cabinets myself. The space with the cleaning products in, goes down to the floor so can be accessed through the same door. Cheers, Mark and Alison
Hi guys! New friends here from FB! 🤗Happy to follow your journey and enjoy the beauty of your country through your travels and adventures! And loving your Aussie accent! 🥰 The hike was amazing! So beautiful waterfalls and natural bridge! Greetings from San Diego 🤗 Elvi & Vlad
Thank you. We appreciate you following along. We will hop over and watch some of yours. Stay safe over there 😃
Great van!!!
😃 Thanks
2:15 love the jar idea but keep in mind that in case of a crash those jars will be propelled forward and become a very dangerous barrage of sturdy glass projectiles which will shatter on impact with the front seats, other pieces of furniture and most worryingly: the back of you lovely peoples heads... The surgeons at the hospital will have a jolly good time extraction the assorted mason jar bits from your skulls... I have seen the result of this type of quirky and practical way of storing first hand after I rolled up onto a camper van crash site first aiding those injured mainly from foreign object damage largely caused by the mason jar deceleration canon... I recommend you try to find soft plastic alternatives for the mason setup. I agree they are great, very handy, practical and safe a ton of space but they can be very dangerous and will cause crazy amounts of damage and injury... Not trying to be a safety nancy but I am trying to prevent you from getting skinned by quirky storage systems... The separating wall between the cab and the living space helps but it might be too little... please look into it...
Thank you for your passionate comment. It's not something we had thought about. We think in an event of a serious crash there are a number of things that would do us harm. Let's hope we never find out what they are. Thank you for watching our video. 🙂
Where do u guys come from in UK?
We are from Bedfordshire. 45 mins north of London 🙂
@@Wottiesvanlife oh wow we had a pub at Woburn
@@Wottiesvanlife how long have you been down under?
That's crazy. It's a small world. We arrived here in 2009
Oh wow how did you cope during COVID. Where did u stay? Thankfully all over now.
We stayed around the Gold Coast just trying to keep ourselves to ourselves in the first couple of months. It was hard because there was a chance that we could be fined for driving about or fined for being parked. Thankfully it was ok. We eventually went back to work and all was good
Yum. I think I’m addicted to your channel
That's fantastic, thank you please tell all your friends about us too 😜 help us grow. We are so glad you enjoy the videos 🥂
Where do u park at night ?
We park on quiet streets or my place of work while we are on the GC. Often to get away from the city we travel out and would stay at a free camp or a showground.
Love it 😍
Van envy. Are you a carpenter Mark??
Excellent job Mark. Clever man 👍👍
Excellent video. 🙏
Thank you so much. Glad you liked it. Easter didn't really happen for us this year as we spent it doing this. It worked so all is good
Fantastic guys. We did exactly the same thing for the same reasons. We’re in Adelaide. We bought a caravan and live in it full time. We are in the process of building out a second hand Renault masters long wheelbase. Loving your van. ❤️.
It's hard to believe how long we have been in our van. Overall we have loved it. Obviously with anything there are down sides. The renault is a good van, we have taken it on roads that maybe we shouldn't have and been places where we have thought, we are not gonna make this, but it just keeps going. Good luck with your van build, it would be great if you kept us updated on your progress 😍
Hi guys do u live in your van?
Hey Stella yes we do. Since Sept 2018. Thanks for subbing to us, we really appreciate it 🙂
He’s only a baby.
Yeah, thankfully 😃
Awesome video guys !!! Love your work
