Awwww what on earth can we say 😮😮😮😮😮keep smiling tc the oldies
Thanks guys!
I love your kitchen tiles, all your hard work is paying off it looks fab
Thank you so much Nickie ❤️
Like watching "another campervan channel" Both funny.
Haha! Thank you!
The kitchen came out great, you'll get the hatches sorted next time. Im surprised that there arent any sort of rubber gasket around the edges of the hatch doors to get a better seal when they are closed
That's actually a really good idea Karen. You are right it would make a lot of sense. The hatch game is strong! One day they will get there!
Good work in kitchen Becca,
Hatches not so good, what a shame the adhesive didn't seal around to prevent water. Third time lucky Chris. 😁🙏
Thanks so much Sheila. Just onto the last finishing steps now. Yes it was a shame but you live and learn. They say third times a charm!
It’s going to work out. The wood looked good. Tiles look great as does the fixture. Can’t wait until the next video!!!
Thanks so much for your lovely comment Shoan ❤️
Always remember, life gives you lemons before you get lemonade!
Aqua seal and Sikaflex may not be compatible! It doesn’t matter the insurmountable challenges, disappointing failures, ups and lows, the Crobots can do it, have a cuppa, a donut, and keep your chin up, have another go! 😊 5:10
Ooh yeah bring on the donuts! 😋 Thanks so much for your words of encouragement 🙂
Also we think you may be onto something about the aquaseal and sikaflex...
I feel your pain... Big hug to hopefully make you feel more relaxed
Thanks Simon 👍
Fair play guys. Something's are best left to the experts. They've got all the gear and idea. Tiles look great.😁😁💪
Also what video editing software are you using. Mines to glitchy. After I render it's out of sinc. Loads of work wasted. Cheers brah
Oh god that sounds crap mate, I use final cut Pro for apple, its about 200ish but it's a one off payment. Alot of these software company's like you to pay a subscription, hope this helps buddy 👍
Cheers buddy
@@TheNomadicCrobot I don't have apple set up. Thanks for the help. I need to start getting professional if I'm doing this for a living. Take care
Greetings from across the pond 🇱🇷
You should watch the narrow boat James built
Great channel thanks Jeff hi from England 🇬🇧 👍
I’ve been watching your channel for about a year now, you both brighten up my day after I have seen it, keep up the good work,many thanks.
Aww thank you so much for your lovely comment Raymond. We really appreciate that and are happy to hear your enjoy our antics!
I’m not happy with this new arrangement between my husband and I. He doesn’t normally watch my vlogs but has now taken to wanting to watch you too, most inconvenient for me as I 99% of the time watch before getting up of a morning but if he watches it’s always in the lounge room, I can’t write to you guys to tell you how bloody brilliant you are from out there, I can only do it from my iPad. Oh well bright side is you have another fan. Well done Ozzie Chris, I won’t hold it against you you’re from that horrid big city. LOL. Thanks heaps guys another great vlog but another cliff hanger. Stay safe and see you soon. 💕
Aww!! Pauline! What a dilemma! But like you say we are really chuffed to hear we have another fan!! Thanks for watching and we shall see you next time. Take care x
The Kitchen area is starting to look great...Bacca is a "GEM"....Your should be grateful you got a talented team mate...You'll get the hatch door sorted out...Don't quit!!...Remember "A winner never quits...A quitter never wins"...................................................Robbie
Thank you so much ☺️ I try my best. I'm sure Chris will crack the hatch door dilemma. I have faith. Third times a charm! So very true. A good guideline to remember!
Love it! 2:50
had me in stitches lol, keep up the good work both 🙂
I think the big sigh you hear coming from him really says it all...
@@TheNomadicCrobot keep at it, you'll be cruising before you know it 🙂
Oh those infernal hatches, can we say future content creation? 🤣
Haha! I think we can safely say yes!
I was wondering how the kitchen would turn out--just wasn't sure you were going in the right direction. You proved me wrong. I'm impressed. Looks wonderful.
Similarly, I thought the hatches would be a straight-forward fix. Again, I was mistaken.
Maybe it's too cold for the adhesive? Maybe Chris succumbed to temptation and was licking his fingers? Who knows? Maybe the Titan can be used to blow warm air over the hatches. Somehow, I suspect that the Titan is part of the solution as it always seems to be.... 😁
Aww thanks so much Peter, I really appreciate that comment. Sometimes it's difficult to convey your vision to others so you just have to have faith in what your doing and that it will all come together. I'm really chuffed that it's come out as it is has!
As for poor Chris's hatches! I suspect you're right, I think he may have taken a liking to the mastic when he was hungry 😂 Like you I'm sure our trusty hero Mr Titan will come through for us 😂
I can’t begin to appreciate how wretched and disappointed you must have felt seeing those sodding wooden panels hadn’t bonded with the metal. What a bummer! I’m sure all your followers will have felt for you. Onwards and upwards, I have everything crossed for 3rd time lucky. All the best.
Thanks Ashley. Funnily enough when the clamps were removed it had set nicely but over the following day it wormed its way off again. Always a lesson to be learnt though. We will know not to use Sikaflex for that type of job again!
Grout vlog guys, looking good 😂
Hahaha!!! Excellent pun work! 👍
Onwards and upwards mr Chrissy crobot ! Your hatches will look better for the experience! Next time wear marigolds !
Becca the tiles and the taps are just bloody brilliant ! Love you guys ! See you on the next one ! X
Exactly I blame it on the lack of marigolds...these hatches have been a nightmare, but will get there thanks Mandy 😊
@@TheNomadicCrobot you certainly will !
Loved this video guys. Had us in stitches with the grout staring 😄. Gutted you're still having trouble with those pesky shutters. Kitchen sink etc is looking fab becca, love it 👍👍
It tickled me to..poor bex, I think I may have finally cracked it, what a ball ache ,cheers guys
@The Nomadic Crobot haha. God I hope so buddy. Wish I was closer, I'd gladly help you guys out. Although, you guys got this 💪
@@shoreylife what a nice thing to say :)
Hi Becca, Chris, another great and exciting Vlog, and with an exciting Vlog, you give us Dramatic music, Yeh!!!!!! Becca, well done with your sink, it looks fantastic, great bit of grouting too. Chris, loved the way the first wooden panel fell into the canal. You did a great job also, its not your fault the panels did not stick in place, and I feel your pain. But I'm sure you will sort it in the next Vlog. Always a great watch. Take care both.
Thanks so much Mr. I was so worried the grouting was going to crack but I've either managed to get the ratio right or (more likely) it's very forgiving!! Haha! Yeah he likes dropping stuff in the river! He will get there. Thanks so much for watching 🙂
What a shame that the side hatch panels didn’t stick. Well done, Chris, for being brave enough to do the silicone with naked fingers! I have a husband who uses silicone a lot - and wipes his hands on his CLOTHES! 😖. Becky, those tiles are beautiful and your grouting so neat. The taps are amazing too. Onwards and upwards!
Exactly...I went in completely gloveless haha. I'm starting to think things only go right when I were marigolds...I'm going to have to bring them out of retirement haha thanks so much Sheila take care
Well damn. Sure you'll figure out the doors Chris. At least the kitchen is looking great. Best wishes, Deb
He will indeed. I have faith! Thank you so much D 🙂
Hi we have watch you from your start, but recently we have noticed that our dog buddy has become scared of your vlogs, we think there are to many ting sounds that seems to scare him.
If there is any way you could stop this it would be amazing.
We would never want to sop watching your vlogs, but buddy has to come first, it may seem weird but if we can't watch anymore, we wish you the biggest wishes with your boat.
Big love.
Vee ade and buddy
Thanks very much for your kind d support, woaw right from the start amazing...sorry we haven't kept our promise of documenting every river and canal...but it will come , sorry about the ting sound..unfortunately I think iv already added it into the next episode but will try and avoid it in the future if it helps,thanks again for enjoying the channel
Try something like Adiseal. Really strong bonding agent.
I used some once to bond the wifes knickers on and, yes, still in place.
Hahaha!!!! Let's hope she doesn't read this comment!!! 😂😂😂
Well if this is quiet possibility your worst idea yet, then it just might be possibly your most entertaining vlog yet. LOL
Just remember the old saying:
“One persons problems and misery is another persons comedic episode to watch”.
Haha its funny how someone failer can be entertaining...I think the only thing keeping me going with it is the fact it makes for a funny vlog haha cheers buddy 😄
I’ve not read all comments BUT Aquasteel isn’t meant to go on clean metal. It’s meant to go on rust which it then converts.
It’s pointless putting it on those lovely doors and probably stopped the stuff from sticking. 😢😢😢
Yeah I think Chris has realised this in hindsight. You live and learn!
Omg poor u. Tiles n taps look great tho. Best wishes
Thanks so much ❤️
Chris your training is at Deck Cadet - which means drinking & boasting is your status
He does this rather well already don't you think!
someone's gonna take those hatches off one day as see the willy!
Turns out it was me haha 😄
I’m loving the kitchen, gutted the doors are being !§
Thank so much, I'm really pleased with it so far. Well third times a charm! He will get there, I believe in him! Exactly! He did a great job originally!
Fault with the doors due to lack of marigold use?
Exactly....I think we need to bring the marigolds back out haha cheers David
Looking good. Do you have a couple of spare tiles to cut in half to fill in the gaps to square it up.
Thanks so much! I actually chose to do it that way, partially because we were gifted some surplus tiles a friend gave us and so don't have loads and I need some for the other side but partially because we like the slightly bonky look of having them that way!!! Great idea though thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
@@TheNomadicCrobot ahh I see, it just my ocd kicking in
Chris did initially suggest to do them all in in square in a perfect line as oppose to staggering them but I twisted his arm!
@@TheNomadicCrobot I bet you did. I don't know if you have done the sealant yet around tiles but I used Dow corning clear in kitchen that lasts years
lol, I assume that was the wrong sicoflex to use. Tiles look great. What are you using to fill the gap between the tiles and wood at the edges?
We can only guess that it just didn't bond the two materials well. Technically it should have been fine on those materials but something was amiss?? I was thinking a white silicon or mastic just to seal the edges of the tiles. I'm not too sure but I think that should be ok!?
@@TheNomadicCrobot yeah, a flexible white waterproof grout or silicone should work good. Is caulking waterproof? Silicone may be too shiny and stand out
Ooh thanks for that il have a look at the options. I'm not sure about caulking if it's waterproof but il definitely have a look. Thank you 🙂
Assuming it's a polyurethane sealant that you used on the doors?
They stick great to porous surfaces (I bet it's stuck well to the wood) but doesn't stick well to non porous surfaces without prepping appropriately. Your steel doors are non porous.
Why not use the maverick's sealant again, that worked?
Expert Chris , not quite so expert if his panels fell off , at least yours stayed on 😂😂😂😂😂
Haha!!! This is very true!!! In fairness we supplied the sikaflex! We are now thinking it didn't agree with the aquasteel...
Wonder what B&Q letters are about, Beers and Queers? Hahah!
😂
Every time I look at the gas cooker, it appears to be below the countertop and it would appear that the wood countertop is looking to catch fire from the cooker. Please be careful.
Hi Bob thanks for thinking of us. I'm not sure which bit you are referring to but the hob is now set into the worktop as per the usual way they would be. The only thing I'm waiting on it the rubber seal to go round the edge. I hope this puts your concerns to rest and thanks so much for thinking of our safety. It can be easy to overlook things when you're in the throws of restoration!
So, how will you know which tap is hot and which one is cold?
I think becca may have a f e w tricks up her sleeve thank you for your comment
Why has one panel gone painted side to metal and the other unpainted?
I think that was a slight lapse in concentration shall we say Clare! Well spotted. We joked about it at the time 😂
What happened to the red tab on the hot tap Becky ? Haha
It's coming I just haven't got round to that bit just yet!!! Well spotted!
@@TheNomadicCrobot tut tut haha 😂
Haha!!!
Boat = Break Out Another Thousand
Haha! I think on our case it's more break out another grey hair 😂
Honest mistake ,live and learn.
Cheers Garyl!
BE on your guard NOW!! ..... Those 'Grout-Dealers' will be on yer case in the comments and there is NO ESCAPE from their clutches 😞 ....... I think 'Expert Chris' is on their payroll judjing by the Hatch-Failures there .... Wearing down your resolve so that You'll DO & SAY Anything to get Becks her Grout Fix ..... 🥴😵😵💫
Haha!!! 😂 Let's hope there's not so w grand masterplan going in behind closed doors!!!!
One thing (among a lot of others) appears to be happening all the time ... and that's a ... secret. Tell you if you ask...
Oooh do share...!?
@@TheNomadicCrobot tell you in next EP 😇
C'mon Tiny, They're GREAT!!. ..Us subscribers can't wait for their next video. Nothing too serious. Just the type of fun we like. Do you watch Narrowboat Will, Tiny? Hope so...he's a good laugh too ! Both formats always give me a chuckle. Thanks Crobots 😂
