I laughed my way through this. Of course you didn’t expect those riv bits to line up! Because 80% of the time they don’t! 😂. And I loved the part you decided not to show us that you showed us anyway. Nice to see your human. I had many van build days like that. I’m waiting to see what hinges you use for the cabinet. I’m still smacking my head as I wait, but no pressure 😅 Love you guys, it’s coming out great! Mines pretty much done- I’m going through van build withdrawal.
Hi Trish, I meant to try and install some hinges this past weekend, but got sidetracked. Once this 3rd cabinet is up...I may try and build a shaker door...but the lower cabinet is screaming for me to get started on it as well :). Tania bought those European style hinges, based on a video she watched from Alex and Sara James. It seems like they should work with or without face frames. Are you going to start a second van? We are already thinking that....
Hey Marc. Great job on this project. I’m at the same point you were. Question: did you leave the spaces on the sides open or did you end up filling them in somehow? Awesome job. Love your episodes!
I dont know. I have seen them listed as rivet nuts, rivnut, plusnuts, blind rivets, etc. There is a UK van builder name Greg Virgoe on You Tube. He has great content. You might ask him what they are called there. They have so many names here in the US. I would imagine same situation there.
Hi and so sorry for the late reply. I remember having to just pull and twist a lot of stuff up there to get it out. Then more twisting and pushing to get it back in
Nice work, problem solving is the most fun part of the conversion.
