so now I've got this great big pane of glass in the side of my vein I'll need
to do one more thing and that's the insulate it otherwise in the summer my van
will become an oven I mean the winter will just get all wet and nasty so
that's what this video is all about now if you remember in my last video I told
you not to throw way that big metal panel that we cut out and this is exactly why
because I'm going to use that metal panel to make a template so make
insulation board to go on the inside of my van so that leaves what I'm going to
do I'm going to use the metal panel got a cutout at a door the box that the
glass came in to make a template for my insulation panel it's going to attach to
the glass on the inside two-inch like it just stop the heat coming in and I can't
going out heat coming in and heat going out anyway that's all music for now it's
no good major exploring around this metal panels but because if I just walk
around the metal panel the actual panel that's gonna go against the glass won't
be big enough what I need to do is have about an inch away from this side so an
inch larger than the window so it fits in the recess in the door I'll show you
what I mean inside the vein but to do this I'm going to use this built round
circle of wood which is about an inch or two inches it should be about right and
simply put that guys it could be fiddly this
so from above you can see but I've drawn a line about an inch away from the panel
all the way around they'll take me inside the van and you'll see exactly
what I've done this now the reason I've made my templates slightly bigger than
the glass because of this lip here so hopefully my panel is going to go up
against this glass he's gonna fit inside this lip and it's going to be healthier
for magnets all the way around so Nick's job is simply to cut it out we can make
it with of this you don't need this anymore that's just there done its job
now find myself a nice pair of scissors and cut these people
now the reason I think use a knife to cut it out of the press scissors because
you can't end it getting more straight along with scissors and you do have a
nice table to work now to make my insulating pen or guys if you zoom Lido
down there it will be dodo thermo liner make bot dive down there it's what I use
to insulate the side panels to get them nice and thin to give me that six foot
wide spring a bit now put the template inside the vein up against the window
and it does need to pray about another reach longer down here so I've marked it
on there much more cold as you can almost take more off you can never put
more on
more than we need I'm gonna mark this out
that's what come down yeah just carry on down to the H same on this side around
hopefully that's gonna speak actually I think I might it will fit it will fit be
positive what it's off cut me pain away there is I play that and fit guys to be
glass pane Oh inside to him this guy he saw it to hand check it out just to make
sure it fits before I cut out you know carpeting cover it so back inside the
vein and I'll need an hour put it up against a window make sure it fits I
want it to fit quite as snugly but not too tight but because I'm going to use
magnets to hold it in place and like I said I want the silver part against the
glass or it's reflecting reflecting reflective properties I don't make nice
to have to pull it on the magnets to just hold it in place so now I know me
penile feet in the aperture we know I've stuck these rare magnets all the way
around it I've used quite a few but they're not really that strong so I got
these from home base I'm just showing a packet for those of you that are
interested it says assault with magnets and they're
from home base alright so now I've checked it fits it stays in place so now
long it does cover it with vault o carpet nothing worse getting Auto carpet
stuck to your fingers wanna get this fluffy finger effect you
end up looking like a white Muppet and enough
watchman is me quick
why'd it love it and now fold these over and glue the edges down and then get
another bit of what a carpet put straight on top trim your energies
shouldn't look too bad
okay I'll get this in the bin this is the question shop upside down in a good
size in a bad so I threw salt Oh carpet
sames before only this time we're not going to touch this over we're gonna
trim it nice and flush yeah it's always good to pause for a moment and just
think about well this is gonna be super sticky because it's already got a
deceive on it as well
for me scissors now just got a trim nice what close to the agent hopefully I
stomp nice olive NC was any good
so here we are back in the vein let's see if this panel actually fits now and
stays in place now I'm not too sure about these magnets they're not really
that strong and I think because I've got the panel has to kind of bend over to
make magnetic contacts against the metal framing up door it's kind of working
against me so real light Ron I've got some more of these magnets I'll just
quickly show you you can see they're quite they're quite thick so if I put
these on the door as well then the magnets doing this will make
contact with those I think it'd make it look better but I want to glue these in
place so they don't move around but that's a job for a rainy day but for now
let's just make sure it fits and stays in place I don't tuck it beyond the
button there see it kind of you have to kind of hold it there to make it make
contact it needs to form itself around the edge
because I made those extra make me something stays in place just about so
I'm definitely gonna have to put those extra minutes in play anyway it will do
for now it's gonna offer some kind of insulation in privacy at night as well
what are these class or things about 80% team during a day you can't see in but
night when it's lights on inside the vein you can most definitely see in but
the only thing is you can't see how that will do its job you'll do exactly what I
mean to do so if you like this video please do give me the thumbs up and
