Installing Our Roof Fan into Our DIY Renault Master Van Conversion – IT DID NOT GO TO PLAN! Ep 5
This week we focus on completing some odd jobs around the van build and install our roof fan. We chose the Fiamma Turbo Vent 28 F and although we were more than ready to get it in, things just did not go to plan. Sometimes in life external factors like to pop up that make everything even more challenging. In our case it was more than 1, there were 4 to be exact. This may not be the perfect ‘How To’ video but it is a perfect representation of a van build. Not everything goes to plan!

Would a hear gun not burn the carpet fluff off the boards
CT1 is awesome
Apprehensions is the word xx
So good to see you guys! How are you feeling recently mentally? You seem much happier❤️
I did slightly cringe when you said "My Van" Sam is a dam grafter! and very skilled – what is the price on that… Must be love lol – What i am saying it just didn't need to be said – He is always bigging up the subs on the monetised channel – Give the man some credit.
that van has got to be called dork
I love how Nic is always happy even when it goes wrong. Well done Poo-knee. That hole is perfection. And a big woof to the manager.
I'd definitely do those screws by hand or maybe try using a Bosch IXO cordless screwdriver or similar, probably save you time in the long run
Ahhhh, yes. Using drills / impact drivers to install screws really speed things up and makes jobs much easier! But on the flip side they can strip a screw head in mere seconds, mangle threads, over-torque fasteners and generally don't give you any feedback before disaster.
I would use them any day of the week for woodworking / furniture fitting but remember that they aren't a complete replacement for a manual screwdriver for those more delicate tasks!
Great job on the van build so far guys!
I felt so bad for you guys, how frustrating. Sam seems to have the patience of Job, that’s wonderful❤May God continue to bless y’all and keep you in His loving care 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
That CT1 stuff is sublime. Personally i prefer it to Sikaflex for sticking things to vans. (Comes in more colours too. I have a silver van so having then option to use a grey tube of CT1 was excellent)
Personally if your together as a couple what ever is yours is his …. kind of cheeky for you to say you paid for the van and all the equipment you should have kept that to your selfs were here for content not who paying for what
We find Renault master a nice reliable van so far so good 👍 👌
👆 – FIND YOUR LOVE HERE 💞♂u💋
Bit confused if you two are all sorted now.. or is this old content ?
Well done guys. We gave up our van conversion business to go travelling. Loving the progress on your van. Good luck and keep smiling 😎
Such a lovely weekend for it!
👆 – NЕW А DАТING FОR АLL ТАSТЕS & АGЕS 🍒😘u👩
Hello Lord Onyx adorable as ever! Awesome progress y'all, every step forward is an inspiration for the next one🙃🙂💕
Nothing goes as easy as we first think. You have the patience to overcome many a set-back so all good. That lumpy roof makes sealing it in very challenging for sure. Good job you work well together. Good to see you wearing ppe. xx
