You guys make my weekend, I look forward to every Saturday morning. Your craftsmanship and banter brighten up my day, well done guys. The best RUclips channel IMHO 👍
@@martyncleaver3961 I would heartily agree. Why these two don’t have their own show on TV baffles me. Just take the RUclips segments, edit and format them for TV and Bob’s your uncle!
Yup, used that for motorcycle gear and it works, or Vaseline, or a ChapStick. It helps to waterproof the zip too. Really whatever you have lying around that's petroleum based. So no ky. 😉
If there were a Miss Universe equivalent for Campervan Conversions, Big Red would sweep the floor with a first, second and third places. What an absolute treasure you two are building. She will break your hearts when the time comes to selling her. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Right at the end there - around 23:53 - looked like Jess went in for kiss and you turned your back John !!!!! Great content guys, loved every minute of this build. Teamwork really does make the dream work ❣
You may not like Crocs Jess, but they're great for a speedy entry/exit when getting in and out of the van. You two amaze me with your skills. Couldn't wait for my wife to get up so that I could watch this episode!😊
Guys those zips that stick try rubbing a Vaseline lip balm, bar of soap or candle on them it helps stop the sticking. Also the window fly screens. Get a cheap mozzie net cut it to size them get Jess to apply a velcro seem put another velcro on window edges with double sided tape and you have a perfect screen if your somewhere with bitting bugs that you can remove if required. Also just want to say I love your Chanel.
Great build guys it looks like the quality of the pop top is not what you expected!! It’s looking great not be long now before it’s complete Nice to see John behaving well sort of See you next week
Brilliant bit of viewing for a Saturday morning! Yours is my absolute favourite channel on the entirety of RUclips! What more can you ask for - excellent engineering skills, perfect banter between two fabulous personalities, what can Jon create next with his 3D printer 👀 and just first class filming and editing! Your videos are a joy to behold and I’m enjoying going through your back catalogue! See you next week! 💪🏻 x
Legends! Love you pair, great content and comedy. Obviously the reall stars of the show are Jess’s guns and Jon’s buns. Well done guys. Looking forward to seeing the adventures in this awesome build. 😎👍
Absolutely fantastic job, guys and amazing attention to detail. I'm so impressed with your building and engineering skills. Keep up the great content. 👍
Thanks so much Phil, we are over the moon with it 💙 that’s a really lovely compliment thank you. Thank you too for your generosity we are so grateful and I promise we will put it towards something special 😘😘
Oh my word the level of quality in this build is mind blowing, I've loved following this one from beginning to now ❤ you guys could do these builds full time just banging them out 1 after another 😁👌. My favourite RUclipsrs by far
Loved you both from the beginning and love you even more now! Have followed each and every build! This one has been the best yet! Jon and Jess, you are legends! The best couple on RUclips by a mile!🥰🚚🛠️🪛🪚🗜️Xx
Hello BOTH, just so love the chatter, jokes, and the serious stuff too. This camper is brilliant, and so are the "Travellers"!! Best wishes from Lincolnshire.
Welcome to the crocs brigade Jess, love them or hate them we all succumb in the end 😜 I’m so impressed with how professional your conversions are. I have attention to detail like you guys but I could only dream of the same outcome for my van 😂🤣😂 Re your water filter system, is it light?
Hi Guys, Many thanks for passing on details of Direct Water Filters, as you said John is a mine of information and a great help!! ... just finished installing a carbon filter and UV system into our Eriba as a result .... we also run Surfshark on our Avtex Router (after using the Trueblue code) and it worked a treat while abroad ..... its been great watching the Landy, Sainsbury's van builds and now looking forward to the final Big Red build video! .... Thanks again and keep all the good stuff (and great laughs) coming....
Another fantastic series for a build. You guys always manage to fill my Saturday morning with cheer. It almost makes me want to do a build. But the wife would definitely kill me. I will just have to live my dreams through you guys. ❤
Crocs are like Marmite, divisive, I'm with you Jess they are Heinous! 😂 Jon your face when you looked at the camera driving the Pinz into shot was hilarious. 😂😂 Another great one TBT, although the outtakes at the end was a bit of oversharing! lol Thanks for the vdeo.
J&J please don’t forget to put retaining clips on those JG water fittings, ( like a plastic circlip) that fits in the little gap to stop you accidentally pushing the release sleeve , something I always do on our caravans as we’ve had leaks caused by sleeping bags etc pushing the sleeve and allowing the pipe to come out slightly, ( vibration also can do this) causes a right bloody mess saved by a few pence for the retaining clips , loving the build as always 🥰
I think to celebrate the final build episode it should be live episode or a non edited episode because the outtakes are so funny. Thanks for making Saturday mornings a joy as ever
Another excellent video! I'm just scrolling through the comments and, given all the exquisite, multi-skilled workmanship you both demonstrate so beautifully and expertly, why is everyone talking about the effing crocs!!? 🤣😂🤣
Amazing build and lots of great finishing touches Jon, it’s a real team effort from you both now and super skills from the General too👍🏻 Hilarious bloopers and very funny seeing you enjoying making the videos, god knows how much footage you film for our 23 minutes
You two should be proud it’s an absolute beauty of a machine, you have created one of the most amazing campers I’ve ever seen, the attention to detail shows through in your hard work, I have wished to do this for all my life but lack of skill and funds is why I haven’t I get to enjoy it through you o just don’t get to sleep in it
Awesome video as always guys. I can't believe the transformation of Big Red since you got her. I'm with Jess on the colour of the crocs. Also, loved the bloopers at the end😂. God Bless guys ❤
Another superbly entertaining and educational video guys.. You should seriously consider van builds for a living. Jess, give those crocs a fair chance, I'm a clog man myself, and at first didn't think I'd ever like em, but now, they are my best friends😂😂.
Big Red is coming along a treat. I am with Jess on the Croc front. They are brilliant for what they are, and were designed for. I just could being myself to put them on my feet. There is a limit to the number of fly Fs I couldn't give and Crocs and pink are right at the top of that list, don't think anything follows it to be honest.
That Knipex crimper is a good one. But Ideal do a feed through tool and feed through crimps. It makes it a bit easier when you are doing non standard crimping and ribbon cables. Also I think a Milwaukee M12 jacket would be a nice power tool for Jess!
F**king brilliant, Jess’s Borat quote “ sexy time “ completely phasing Jonny boys bit to camera , loved that 😂😂😂😂. The chemistry between you two comes across brilliantly, which must be a testament to Jess’s editing skills knowing how annoying living with Jon must be at times 😉. I’ve noticed since Jess’s break from us when she went to the peaks with family there seems to be even more added spark/chemistry between you two, which just makes it so lovely to watch 💕 The attention to detail on your builds is insane, its very easy to watch and flows so well , EVEN your sponsor section I end up watching fully as its so well done ( I always fast forward through everyone else’s). This is a unique skill! The ending of the vlogs is where our hearts sink as its all over till next Saturday, however if theres bloopers at the end, like this weeks, it leaves us with a smile 👍🏻
😂😂😂 annoying living with Jon 🤔 not at all he is great, so funny, so charming, so sexy 😉 and I would be lost without him, It would be hard to find better honest
@@truebluetravellers Wow Jess , its soo nice you have finally come out and admitted how great and perfect Jon is! For me to see that sort of praise from my other half I would have to write it myself pretending to be her 👀😂
Fabulous video as always and thanks for the witches hat - how on earth you found what to search for to find those is amazing! Perfect solution to finish a job - thank you! Have a great week - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
You, guys, are rocking! That's one of the most beautiful (visually and technically) conversions I've ever seen. Greetings and best wishes to you from the Kyiv, Ukraine!
Soooooo envious of big red and your first class engineering and master crafting!!!! Can't wait to see it in action and the Canada trip. Haha poor John at the end 😂😂😂 Saturday mornings set for life ❤
Tip for your zips snagging on the pop top, giv3 them a light spray with scilicone spray, work the zip back and forth a bit and it will be much smoother
Wow, what a team you are 👍 Big Red is another step closer to completion and ready for the adventure that awaits, both of you have a great eye for detail and the finished project will be the dog's doodahs 😂😂 i love both of your style's and humour, have a great week 👏🫶🫶🍻
Try Hospitality Crocs. They have a non slip sole and also provide foot protection and warmth as there are no ventilation holes. You will have to wear them with socks like Jon though. Best of all if you step in something nasty they are washable! 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🖤🤍🤎
I switch on my PC and these 2 i watch first, always look forward to watching, a very funny couple but very professional at the same time, a joy to watch, keep up the good work guys.
I think we all expected a different gift for Jess, but not crocks, great to see the pop top completed and looking good, and moving onto the interior, as always fabulous episode for our Saturday morning viewing.
you always bring a smile to my satudays. I enjoy the laughs and build progress each week. I don't know how you find the time to edit swell though. but it's great content and informative. 😀🥰
Damn!!! That canvas fits great...I have been waiting to see that install and cheers to Jess for an amazing job on measuring that. But John,,, she seems to be a damn tough video director!
Wow looks awesome you two are great together, the General is amazing her talents are never ending and so are yours John quiet a perfectionist bet you both can’t wait to get on the Travels 💙
Again loved this episode, the canvas is in and Jess's special crock gift! I love mine and use them all the time instead of flip flops! They're the best!
I railed against them for years but eventually gave in. Now I don’t give a monkeys what I look like , they’re really practical and my granddaughter loves that we have matching shoes 😂
I never thought I’d be so happy to get something I don’t want 😂😂 I’ll never be a convert but I do like that I can go outside without taking my slipper socks off
Telling ya now Jon she is one tough Shelia mate, your poor little face in that last montage of clips bless ya 😂😂 that motor is something else now too it’s going from strength to strength every weeks I so can’t wait to see the finish motor 😁😁
@@truebluetravellers yeah bit if Jess was cracking the whip in the bedroom that would be fine Jon 😅😂 but what I see there is just bullying in the workshop mate 😂😂
I've been anonymously followed along through several vehicles, ever impressed, and I think you've really outdone yourselves with this one! Such attention to details, along with your fun and enteraining selves. Amazing, cheers!
Looking great and the roof canvas fits like a dream 👍 You may want to consider a thermal lining of some sort or it may be the camera angle showing the light coming through? Amazing to see how this is coming together with all your hard work. Have a great week 🤗👍
Best channel on RUclips bar non! Another great build with all the excellence we've become accustomed to, can't wait to see where you go on Big Red's maiden journey 👍 Any chance you can give me a link to the actual water filter bits? There seems so many items on the Direct Water Filters site 🤔
Thanks very much 😂👍, yes mate no problem www.directwaterfilters.co.uk/private-water-supply/off-grid/uvc-led-upto-11lpm-ultra-violet-uv-water-treatment-systems.html www.directwaterfilters.co.uk/private-water-supply/off-grid/Housing-Ultra-Disruptor-PAC-Nano-Filter-Cartridge_
Great job with the canvas. You’ve now got a good template to work from if that material doesn’t live up to much, you can have it made from the heavier stuff. Jess’s name isn’t that bad, wife’s auntie before marriage was Nicola Rhodda Mann…. True story.
Love the crocs Jess and my favourite colour too. Absolutely entertaining from beginning to end love the bloopers The General is back, never noticed you gone anywhere. Nearly finished ready for the road Big Red, congrats on a great job 👏🏻 would not be complete without the bungie lol Jonny boy got his own way 😂 can’t wait for next week 😎👍🏻
Thanks for another thoroughly entertaining and informative episode. You two really do have the skills and I can’t wait to seeing Big Red on her first shakedown camp.
Oh my goodness, the build is coming along 😱. Wow, can't wait to see Big Red going on her first adventure. Will you do a trial weekend, just to make sure all is working as expected? Thanks for sharing guys ❤
You guys are fantastic great job on the roof it looks fantastic and all the finishing touches look amazing well done and remember take your time and don’t stick it in yet.😂😂😂 Enjoy
The build looks awesome. Go look at your first series and see how much you guys have grown (in all areas) well done. Really take a date night and watch it with snacks. PS i really enjoyed the starting videos too.
@@truebluetravellers Back home again, if it wasn’t for bad luck we wouldn’t have any luck. Came home to the mobile home broken into. Can’t believe it happened in rural France. Onwards and upwards we say but getting a bit fed up now 🥲 Keep us entertained each Saturday and we will keep smiling 😊.
@@lisasettle8798 bloody hell, I bet you will be glad when this year is over, same round by us we live in the middle of nowhere and trailers are getting stolen left right and centre at the minute, thieving b@stat@rds
Absolute genius, some of the ideas you two come up with 😮 I so wish you’d been building my van. But hey ho. Canvas looks great (bungee genius) but I can understand your concerns about how thin it is. In cold weather you’re going to need a thermal pop top wrap. Make sure the autoterm gets a dedicated swivel vent up into it. As always, fab banter and brilliant progress. Love waking up to you both on a Saturday 😮( that came out a bit weird…) 😅❤
😂😂😂 PMSL love waking up to you too Torz 😂😂 thanks so much that’s a lovely compliment, someone made a good point and said it will dry quicker when wet, I guess it’s one of those pros and cons/ time will tell things. Not so sure how we will go in Iceland in summer when it doesn’t really get dark, but I reckon I could win an Olympic medal for sleeping so hopefully we’ll be ok 💙
I get the feeling Jess would have preferred the naughty gift mate 😂Amazing work you two, Big Red is looking great and your “Jeneral” montage at the end there was a perfect encapsulation of why we love you both and this channel so much, see you on the next one x
Go to surfshark.com/trueblue for 4 extra months of Surfshark.
A good next purchase would be a heated body warmer for Jess.... A great bit of kit for the Australian 😊
😂😂😂 she’s been looking 😂🤦♂️
@truebluetravellers Keis heated clothing 😉
You guys make my weekend, I look forward to every Saturday morning. Your craftsmanship and banter brighten up my day, well done guys. The best RUclips channel IMHO 👍
Check out Keis heated gear for motorcyclists
@@martyncleaver3961 I would heartily agree. Why these two don’t have their own show on TV baffles me. Just take the RUclips segments, edit and format them for TV and Bob’s your uncle!
If you rub a candle up and down the zips the wax helps them run smooth and helps with the snagging. Trick we used on mountain bike gear 😊
Thanks for the tip 👍👍
Yup, used that for motorcycle gear and it works, or Vaseline, or a ChapStick. It helps to waterproof the zip too. Really whatever you have lying around that's petroleum based. So no ky. 😉
Also use the same trick on SCUBA dry suit zips 🙂
Candling the seams is also a good idea to protect the stitching thread against deterioration.
@@alexarcano 😂😂😂
The amount of thought that has gone into this project. Plus filming it all. Bloody marvellous!! Thank you for bringing so much happiness to the world.
Thanks so much for watching and the kind message 😊
If there were a Miss Universe equivalent for Campervan Conversions, Big Red would sweep the floor with a first, second and third places. What an absolute treasure you two are building. She will break your hearts when the time comes to selling her. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
She is pretty sexy isn’t she 😂😂 not that we are biased or anything! I know I will be gutted 💙
John getting flustered over sexy time was so funny.
😂😂😂 it doesn’t happen often so takes me by surprise
@@truebluetravellersGotta get it whilst you can mate😉🤣🤣
@@truebluetravellers Somehow, I don’t think so…
Right at the end there - around 23:53 - looked like Jess went in for kiss and you turned your back John !!!!! Great content guys, loved every minute of this build. Teamwork really does make the dream work ❣
😂😂 I know she was not happy 😂😂😂👍 cheers mate
It’s always a good day when you two post!
Thanks very much 👍
You may not like Crocs Jess, but they're great for a speedy entry/exit when getting in and out of the van. You two amaze me with your skills. Couldn't wait for my wife to get up so that I could watch this episode!😊
I’ve spotted her in them already mate 😂👍
Brrrrrilliant bit of kit for the feetsies.
Guys those zips that stick try rubbing a Vaseline lip balm, bar of soap or candle on them it helps stop the sticking.
Also the window fly screens. Get a cheap mozzie net cut it to size them get Jess to apply a velcro seem put another velcro on window edges with double sided tape and you have a perfect screen if your somewhere with bitting bugs that you can remove if required.
Also just want to say I love your Chanel.
Thanks very much for the tip mate 👍👍
Great build guys it looks like the quality of the pop top is not what you expected!! It’s looking great not be long now before it’s complete
Nice to see John behaving well sort of
See you next week
😂😂😂 I know best behaviour hey mate 👍
3D printing is the best. Until you’ve tried it you cant convey the joy you get from design to prototype to final product. Its so satisfying!
100% agree with this
Brilliant bit of viewing for a Saturday morning! Yours is my absolute favourite channel on the entirety of RUclips!

Many thanks for passing on details of Direct Water Filters, as you said John is a mine of information and a great help!! ... just finished installing a carbon filter and UV system into our Eriba as a result .... we also run Surfshark on our Avtex Router (after using the Trueblue code) and it worked a treat while abroad ..... its been great watching the Landy, Sainsbury's van builds and now looking forward to the final Big Red build video! ....

Tip for your zips snagging on the pop top, giv3 them a light spray with scilicone spray, work the zip back and forth a bit and it will be much smoother
Thanks for the tip I’ll give it a go 👍

Jon if you couldn't find any of those witches hats you could always use car cv gators 👍 wider range of sizes and maybe a bit cheaper too 👍
Great idea that mate 👌
The pop-top looks fab, well done!
Thanks mate 👍
Love the triple T this episode, also John try 3d printing something for Jess, might let you buy more tools

😂😂😂😂 I would never do such a thing
@@truebluetravellers......but I bet you're thinking about it now! 🍆 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've been anonymously followed along through several vehicles, ever impressed, and I think you've really outdone yourselves with this one! Such attention to details, along with your fun and enteraining selves. Amazing, cheers!
Thanks very much mate 👍
@@truebluetravellers Good thing I'm so good at spelling ...
Well done guys, you’ve done so a good job and the camper is looking good. Can’t wait for your adventures.
Thanks very much 😊💙
Looking great and the roof canvas fits like a dream 👍 You may want to consider a thermal lining of some sort or it may be the camera angle showing the light coming through? Amazing to see how this is coming together with all your hard work. Have a great week 🤗👍
Yeah I think if we ever use it somewhere cold we would definitely need a thermal liner for it mate, it’s like a t shirt compared to the alucab
@22:34 thanks for the great vlog! And a big kiss back from the Netherlands!
😘 thanks so much so glad you enjoyed it
Best channel on RUclips bar non!
Another great build with all the excellence we've become accustomed to, can't wait to see where you go on Big Red's maiden journey 👍 Any chance you can give me a link to the actual water filter bits? There seems so many items on the Direct Water Filters site 🤔
Thanks very much 😂👍, yes mate no problem

Great job with the canvas. You’ve now got a good template to work from if that material doesn’t live up to much, you can have it made from the heavier stuff.
Jess’s name isn’t that bad, wife’s auntie before marriage was Nicola Rhodda Mann…. True story.
That’s such a good point 👌nice one 👍 😂😂😂 gold!!
Awesome job you two are so talented
Thanks 😊
Love the crocs Jess and my favourite colour too. Absolutely entertaining from beginning to end love the bloopers The General is back, never noticed you gone anywhere. Nearly finished ready for the road Big Red, congrats on a great job 👏🏻 would not be complete without the bungie lol Jonny boy got his own way 😂 can’t wait for next week 😎👍🏻
😂😂😂 I know mate, shes here busting my balls every week hey 🙄😂👍
@@truebluetravellers I agree with other comments you are the best RUclips channel by a country mile 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@@clivehewitt9254 thanks mate that’s much appreciated 👍
Thanks for another thoroughly entertaining and informative episode. You two really do have the skills and I can’t wait to seeing Big Red on her first shakedown camp.
Thanks very much mate 👍👍
Oh my goodness, the build is coming along 😱. Wow, can't wait to see Big Red going on her first adventure. Will you do a trial weekend, just to make sure all is working as expected? Thanks for sharing guys ❤
We will do definitely, like before stay close to home hey 😊💙
You guys are fantastic great job on the roof it looks fantastic and all the finishing touches look amazing well done and remember take your time and don’t stick it in yet.😂😂😂 Enjoy
😂😂😂😂 there will be no sticking it in at all Mike 😂😂
@@truebluetravellers nice try but I don’t believe. Enjoy
The build looks awesome.
Go look at your first series and see how much you guys have grown (in all areas) well done.
Really take a date night and watch it with snacks.
PS i really enjoyed the starting videos too.
Thanks very much, I know we watched a couple a while back, so bad 😂😂 but still means we are getting better hey 😊
@@truebluetravellers 👍🏻 yup
It looks brilliant. Clever pair. 👍👍👍
Thanks 😊😊
You are a pair of perfectionist, great video. It’s coming on like a dream. 👍❤️
Thanks Lisa, hope your enjoying your trip 💙💙
@@truebluetravellers Back home again, if it wasn’t for bad luck we wouldn’t have any luck. Came home to the mobile home broken into. Can’t believe it happened in rural France. Onwards and upwards we say but getting a bit fed up now 🥲 Keep us entertained each Saturday and we will keep smiling 😊.
@@lisasettle8798 bloody hell, I bet you will be glad when this year is over, same round by us we live in the middle of nowhere and trailers are getting stolen left right and centre at the minute, thieving b@stat@rds
You work so hard and some people have no worries from stealing from you. What times we live in. Gotta keep smiling 😁😁😁😁x
She's looking great, so does that make her "something great for expeditions". Can't wait to see the final product
😂😂😂 got to be hey 👍
Another Saturday and another Jon & Jess video - Big Red has come up a treat and is looking fantastic..looking forward to next weeks video already..
Thanks so much mate we appreciate it 💙
What a stunning job well done you two lots of brilliant ideas in it👍👍
Thanks mate 👍
its looking FANTASTIC , well done you two ...
Thanks mate 👍
Fantastic really loving this build.
Thanks mate
😂Looks like you left Jess hanging on a kiss at the end of the video Jon😮. As usual great video guys 👍
😂😂 I know I missed that one
Absolute genius, some of the ideas you two come up with 😮 I so wish you’d been building my van. But hey ho. Canvas looks great (bungee genius) but I can understand your concerns about how thin it is. In cold weather you’re going to need a thermal pop top wrap. Make sure the autoterm gets a dedicated swivel vent up into it. As always, fab banter and brilliant progress. Love waking up to you both on a Saturday 😮( that came out a bit weird…) 😅❤
😂😂😂 PMSL love waking up to you too Torz 😂😂 thanks so much that’s a lovely compliment, someone made a good point and said it will dry quicker when wet, I guess it’s one of those pros and cons/ time will tell things. Not so sure how we will go in Iceland in summer when it doesn’t really get dark, but I reckon I could win an Olympic medal for sleeping so hopefully we’ll be ok 💙
@@truebluetravellers true, true.. we shall see. Watch this space 👍🏻💕
Looks amazing!!
Thanks 👍
As always, a great video again, you humour and your skills are amazing. You make my Saturdays. Thanks 🙏
Thanks very much mate 😊
Over 6000 views and 170 comments one hour in, hats off to you both! Another great update, Saturday has officially started 🙂
We are very grateful 💙 thanks mate
I get the feeling Jess would have preferred the naughty gift mate 😂Amazing work you two, Big Red is looking great and your “Jeneral” montage at the end there was a perfect encapsulation of why we love you both and this channel so much, see you on the next one x
😂😂😂 I’ve never been so glad to get a gift I hate 😂😂 thanks so much that’s so lovely 💙💙
@@truebluetravellers I bet Jess! 😝 And genuinely meant what I said, you two are the best way to start the weekend, stay awesome and big love x
Thanks for the water filtration setup! I've been looking for a good way to do ours. Cheers!
No worries 😊
