Tomarse posted:Don't ever use silicon sealant on the external bits of anything seconding this. I've never used CT1 though I'm curious. I'm a fan of 3M's 4000 and 5200 series marine sealant. Eternabond is also your friend. E: sikaflex p2b (eh it's alright), 3m windoweld, and butyl for window or high vibe environments. cursedshitbox fucked around with this message at 16:06 on Apr 18, 2020 |

You'll be fine! Use a spray bottle with some diluted dish soap and water to check for leaks. Try not to kink the hell out of any copper lines too, though stateside camper builders do this without a problem so ymmv  Like Tomarse said, seal the bottle storage cabinet up and vent it down as the gas is heavier than air.

Blacknose posted:Dunno if I'm going to keep the thread going. I really loving hate domestic abusers and don't know if I want to keep posting here as a result. I want to finish documenting the build and, assuming anyone is actually following it, finish showing you guys that process but blurgh what a wasteman. The stove looks awesome. I'm with you there. Maybe an imgur thread posted on the ai slack would work for the time being. E: made a #projects thread on slack as Tomarse pointed out

Isn't finish work so much fun? So easy to ruin, so time consuming to fix. At like 18 or 19 I chipped the nose of a C3 Corvette fitting the hood working in a shop. Of course they painted the car before doing panel fitment. I wound up paying for that fuckup for like 6 weeks.

Blacknose posted:Originally the plan was to spend the best part of this year travelling Europe full time. Unfortunately covid became a problem round about the time I quit my job and bought the van. With brexit also happening at the end of this year (and no idea what travel restrictions that may lead to, the UK is a dumb loving country jfc) it's not clear when we'll be making that trip. Maybe 2021, maybe 2022, maybe never. That's a dilemma all too understandable. Don't get too discouraged over something outside of your power, at the end of the day you still have a kickass van. Right now is a great time to keep doing trials to get it all the wrinkles ironed out for the future Europe trip. Is it possible for you to remotely perform contracting work?

Blacknose posted:Yeah, I'm lazy in the sense of disliking 'work', but have done work I'm very proud of in my spare time for free - coordinator/mechanic at a bike co-op, ran a community space used by loads of left/arts groups, animal rights stuff, trained at a left wing boxing club and helped with workshops, Cool stuff I'm not gonna discuss. Shame I've never made a penny off any of it and never will. You're cool and good. beep-beep car is go posted:Oooooooor you could get some kind of decent* internet in the van and gently caress off now and WFV (work from van) contracting and building your nest egg ever higher because you're not paying rent/utilities. I was kinda darting around this. Add in a little extra bit. Stationary for 14 days, C19 test, then find a new place to drop anchor. If the van can boondock for 14 days solid, you'll be alright in this hellscape. Blacknose posted:Yeah I mean that's basically why I went into software engineering, it's easy money by any relative standards. It just turns out that desk jobs suit me pretty badly. First World problems at their finest. Deskjobs haven't been kind to my physical body, I kind of long for the days of crawling around diesel engines 10 times my weight. However it translates to this kind of lifestyle oh-so-good.

Fuckyea what a hell of a story. Sometimes the journey is the best vehicle. Take every opportunity to get lost. By any luck you'll discover something new. Sometimes that discovery is you.
