Welding is better than fiberglass.

You might get a few subscriptions if there was a link to do it. It is easy enough in YouTube but on here the video runs in a window on its own. If it can be done it would help if you posted an explanation how to do it. It is possible if you post the YouTube link without the http bit at the front that might take folk to YouTube but that's only a guess on my part. You may need to experiment.

Edit: Just tried it and it didn't work.

When I see Fiber Glass repairs being made to structural parts of a vehicle, I have serious concerns re the skill set needed to build a good reliable camper van
I make no apologies for my comments

why do we 'need' to subscribe' - what benefit is it to you? Revenue?

earlier this year Youtube in their wisdom stopped people earning revenue though films, unless you have 1000 subscribers. The result is that people are not making the type and useful films anymore and/or the quality and effort put is not there. Although not worth much, there is not much point investing a lot of time and effort to produce useful "helpful" films. I hope that answers your note.. yes just watch without subscribing, but if everyone did that I'm sure the channel for vehicle for self help tutorials will dry up.

I fiberglasssed the floor of my transit van 8 years ago when its was 11 years old. Large holes and used rust treatment, and when I converted it from a works van 2 years ago the floor had not changed at all, and I was carring fully loads most days in it.
If the holes are less than 1 inch across, I'll stick with fiberglass.

so basically, what you are saying is, if people don't earn money from Youtube they won't make self help videos .. after all why make a product to give it away for free ?

on the other hand, many use Youtube simply as a way of hosting their home made videos without motive for profit .. and enjoy sharing with friends and family..

I suggest that some will produce post self-help videos simply because they enjoy helping others.. it's a record of their work, and also enjoy having them viewed.. reward enough

A Pin prick in a prescribed area is an MoT Reason for Failing the test
You clearly have given no thought to vehicle safety or future welding repairs as they progress in an older vehicle
or consideration for what effect your bodge will have in a serious accident
I sincerely hope when you are finished with your projects you scrap them and dont pass on your handiwork
it appears your thought process leave a lot to be desired also
my apologies for appearing rude, but once again not for the content
