  1. Good on little Vinnie, plenty of life left in the old dog yet.
    On the wiring front, tie some thin wire or string round the end of the wiring and thread it into the conduit, should be able to pull it all through easier, or get some split conduit and make it even easier.

  2. Hi might be a bit late now, but to feed wiring/cables though long lengths of conduit, attach a small paper bag or bit of light weight cloth to a cord/string, push the bag into one end of the conduit and attach a vacuum cleaner hose to the other end, the vacuum will draw the bag/string through the conduit, once through attach your wiring/cables to the string/cord then gently pull the string/cord through the conduit bringing the wiring/cables with it, then cut the string/cord leaving 100mill or so at each end of the conduit that way if at a later date you need to run extra wiring/cable through the conduit you can.

  3. Yay Vinster- with the wiring, put one wire through first then attach the rest of the wires you want to pull through to the one you’ve already got through. Then just pull them all through together. (Too many throughs there. 😂)

  4. Hello, nice work and videos 😊
    I got a great tip with the wires.

    Use a piece of cork with a string attached. Suck in the hose/cable pipe with a vacuum cleaner so the cork goes through. attach the cable to the end of the string. Pull the rest of the string plus cable again. clear

    God luck from sweden/ Dennis 🤓

  5. Conduit: always put one pull wire through first. Make a little loop with a bit of electric tape, to prevent catching. Also, a little vaseline can help. Tie your wires PLUS a reserve pull wire (for the future) to the pull wire and pull through rather than trying to stuff the conduit. There you go.

  6. Hello to you both!
    You're doing a great job on both vans.
    Use black shoe polish (the one with the sponge) on the black plastic pieces on the outside of the vans.
    3 people asked me if my van was new after I did it.
    Try it!!

  7. I'm so happy to see y'all in a larger van. One large enough for you to stand up and move around in. Really enjoy watching your videos.
    Go ahead and set Venni free – put him up for adoption.

  8. Looking good guys. Have you considered waxoyl for the underbody? Be a worthwhile investment as it will protect against corrosion and stop any current rust in its tracks.

  9. It would be good if you gave vinster away to someone who needed a home. Pass on the gratitude of you getting a van free. That’s what I would do then you would be helping someone and know vinnie has gone to a good cause.

  10. Part of your souls is in Vinnie for ever more in my opinion. I had a Range Rover Vogue SE for nearly 30 years and she was as near new condition as you could get, when I had a heart attack in late 2020 I had to get rid of her and I cried my eyes out nearly as much as I have with my last 3 canine companions and 2 feline companions when they passed. Vinnie is an integral part of both your life experiences, respect to Vinnie the old trooper.♥

  11. My wife has been using Bristol CBD oil for about a year now, to help relieve the painful symptoms of fibromyalgia. It's helped her hugely, plus she sleeps so much better. It's a great product – thank you for the discount code!
