To continue retrofitting my two vans during the winter without having to rent a workspace, I built myself a heated tent under my lean-to roof.
It protects from wind, rain and the cold.
An infrared heater keeps the upper body warm.
In a pinch, I can also use a three-phase AC fan heater.
At minus 5 degrees I could keep the inside temperature at + 7 °C.
That is enough to work comfortably without freezing hands.
I used different magnets to attach the strong and correctly fitting plastic sheets from GeKaHo.de
to the steel structure.
Especially the rubber-coated magnets are perfect for use on all sheet metal surfaces on the inside and outside of the van as well as in the workshop.
Thanks to the magnets, if necessary, the plastic sheet tent can be dismantled with ease and also just as easily be put up again.
You are welcome to follow the retrofitting progress of both vans on Instagram under @yellowoftheegg_van.

Entry and attachment on the car: ITNG-32 - rubber-coated pot magnets with internal thread M6

Attachment on the car and sheet edges: ITNG-40 - neodymium magnet system Ø 45

Ceiling fixture for the relatively heavy infrared heater: 4 of the BD-OTN-40 - pot magnets with eyelet

Sufficient for attaching the sheets to the ceiling surfaces: CSF-48 - ferrite pot magnets with countersunk hole

Used, in part, for the corners as storm protection: GTNG-88 - rubber-coated pot magnets with threaded stud
