This is how we have fitted our solid wood work top in our self built campervan. Very excited as we are really starting to make some progress now that we are getting the kitchen unit in. We’ve since had the our relay (boxer/ducato) weighed so stay tuned for an update on that in a later video. ‘L’ shaped angle brackets for fixing worktop and frame build https://amzn.to/3aKi3Th *We use affiliate links from which we earn a small percentage at no extra cost to yourself.

    1. Hi Andre, our van isn’t here right now so I can’t check but from memory it’s 27mm and we got it from b and q. It’s still very heavy tho.

  1. The counter top looks just what I need. Can you remember where you got it from Em…? And would you say it could be used with an underslung sink..? 👍

  2. Love the work top but if on a tight budget you could have used the wood you cut of the worktop for a splash back. Nice to see a women doing a van build, great work 😎

  3. Such a great job. I bow my head. Not only woodworking is excellent but also electrics, gas, tiling and plumbing as well as design. Very very cool to have these skills. 👏

  4. Hi, Lou really enjoying all your videos. Quick question. I’m about to install my worktop which is the same one as the one you have. Did you treat it in any way? The paperwork seems to say it’s already treated but I feel I want to give it a few more coats of wax or oil.

    1. Hi ya, Em here, no we left it as it was and didn’t treat it. It’s held up well considering I’m a spiller 🤣 don’t think it would be a bad thing if you did though

  5. After finding you on your Norway/Sweden series, I am binge-watching the van build as I’d love to do the same one day. One thing though…The Ketchup is upside down 🙃😂! I am looking forward to following your future travels. Keep up the great work.
