On my renogy unit I have a 2 way switch so I can charge from solar or isolate it for full alternator charge. On the second position it allows me to charge from a 20v led driver when hooked up to shore power. It's cheaper than an actual shore lower mains charger, better quality and IP67, it also allows adjustment of voltage and amperage. It is also silent thanks to passive cooling. We use them to power military kit that we build so it is more than up to the job. Loving the build and just wish I could find the time to crack on and finish my build.

As baking is a matter of chemical reactions you need to be precise. 👉So here we have another Top Tip to remember folks -use the same measuring tools for the whole of a project/recipe.👍

Technically, sharpening a pencil with a knife is better for the pencil: it avoids the twisting forces on the lead that pencil sharpeners exert which can cause breakages near the tip. My Saturday mornings always start with coffee and your videos! I'm so inspired to take on my first conversion!!

Another thing about pencils - try not to drop them. It can shatter the lead inside the wood. B grades of pencil are softer so a little more resilient (in my experience anyway) but H grade can obviously have a sharper more precise tip. All of which is a bit too much of a faff for me so I tend to use an extra fine sharpie when marking/measuring. Another (probably useless to anyone reading this) fun fact is that coloured pencils are especially fragile and far more prone to breakage. Which can mean there’s no way they’ll sharpen no matter what you’re sharpening them with. A workaround that some folks use is to bake them at a low temp in the oven…and no, i’m not making this up.

What a cracking job, you should both be so proud of your work. It is faultless I am so jealous. I love the tip for fitting lino in the corners, just hope i can remember it !! Jon you were so good when Jess was away I think you deserve a treat, how about it Jess. I am sure there must be a tool he hasn't already got, or perhaps not. I could watch you both for hours, the video always ends too quickly. Cheers, Poth.

FTW doesn’t count they didn’t say anything.😝 You guys are epic, always look forward to your builds and escapades. I think soldier boy showed some restraint in the Generals absence this week. Love the engine bay cover, hopefully it will cut the noise and heat. Nice one on the carpet Jess. Birch walls are a nice choice, inexpensive wood, light weight, tight grain, easy to sand and paint. Can’t wait to see the cabinetry go in next guys. Guns out and Buns out! Cheers from Florida 🌴🌴🌴👍

Hey there, in regards to the seats, if you have the recliner mechanism fail there is a repair kit that fixes this issue. Its exceptionally common as the metal is not thick enough, every pinz i ever worked on had the replacement kit installed as a precaution.

Strap in, strap up, strap on! Another Saturday, another video full of hilarity. Love watching you two work, how you do all of this to such quality amazes us both. The v groove idea is genius as well! Clever way of hiding the joints... James: it'll be impressive if he can pull it off. Me: *grinning and giving him the side eye* oh you know he will, he's an expert at pulling it off

Hate to tell you this Jon, but Jess might be right about the tape measures. They will have accuracy markings (i, ii or iii) if you have a google you will see how accurate or inaccurate each class is. It’s about +/- 2.5mm in 10m for a class 2. So if you’re using different tapes you could be 5mm out in 10m! Jess I’m usually very much on team Jon. But if you need Jon fact checking on tool related matters let me know! 😂 Love you guys.
