From minivan to camper van in 30 minutes

[@katrinascreationscrafting]

That has got to be the BEST minivan conversion I've seen!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks so much Katrina!

[@oldenoughtoknow...]

I applaud this statement!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@JB-zc4qy]

This van conversion is amazingly designed. Half an hour to install but hours of design ideas and configuration. The best I've seen!!!

[@leannej.5310]

This is by far the best video I’ve seen in terms of explaining how you did things from any of the hundred of videos I’ve watched. Thank you so much for showing the little details most you tubers overlook!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Hi Leanne, I'm so please that you found the video clear and helpful! That's my goal! Cheers!

[@ph.m7728]

So far the BEST minivan conversion video. Well done my Dear and be blessed,

[@beverlywillert6091]

How many comments have “taken the words out of my mouth” to how beautiful your work is!! Your craftsmanship, neatness, creativity, design........etc.etc. I’m in awe of everything you’ve done. Thank you

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thank you so much 😀

[@pauletteclark8945]

You did that. I mean I watch these types of videos all day. Build & no build conversations. I am literally blown away. This is so creative and amazing. Im going to look and see if you offer blue prints/ DIY guide ebook or PDF. If not...do it please I will invest in it. Don't stop doing what you do.

[@wanderlust62]

There are parts of conversions I really like, but this conversion is exceptional. I love the entire conversion. Thank you for your music free, concisely detailed and at a rate of speech to catch all that you are doing, especially the electrical. I like your option for mesh netting. It is more practical than covers. The kitchen is perfect, and everything is below the window. Excellent build of every piece!

[@jannezack]

I loved watching you do your setup! Your wiring is fantastic. Your boxes are as well.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thank you so much!

[@janeschiller7299]

Thank you ♡ What a beautifully smooth and efficient set-up you've made!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad you like it! Thanks for watching

[@wooddavid8293]

I am so impressed with the design and execution of your camper. It's simple yet extremely well thought out. Big thumbs up!

[@branditamplen8389]

This is amazing!! Everything is so professionally done and then when it’s all set up, it’s so beautiful and cozy… you are talented!!

[@MorgueInn]

This was so fun to watch you assemble the van.

[@skpjoecoursegold366]

nice build.

[@mrhypnomadic1104]

Everything about this is fantastic!!! The engineering, the build, the video, the explanation... all of it! Thank you so much for making & sharing this!!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Dutcharmytent]

Really enjoyed the video. I used four storage box’s in my Jeep XJ. That way the box’s come out into the awning and you get left with 100 % of the floor space for bedding.

[@paulchevrier9961]

Very nice camper van conversion. I really like that it is not permanently converted, it can be easily used as a minivan or a camper van. The build quality looks fantastic, very professional. I really think you could sell this as a kit. From Oshawa Ontario Canada

[@lcheng729]

there were lot of thought during the build, the best i ever seen

[@kerriebailey8459]

What an efficient and speedy process, well done! And thank you for not dragging it out to twenty minutes!

[@joanobrien722]

This is the best set up I have seen. I wish I was smart to do electrical stuff

[@jamiejensen3742]

Best minivan build I've ever seen!!!!

[@millinutz]

The filming, the good clear and understandable explanations and your relaxing voice is top class, making this a very enjoyable (but short☹️) video. Have a good season, greets from 🇨🇭, Steve.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Short! I always worry they are too long! Thanks, as always, for watching!

[@millinutz]

@@averysmallcampervan 9 mins is short. If you can do at least 20 mins on a regular basis, you will boost your YT logorythms thus helping with your earnings... if that is what you are wanting. Whichever way, I enjoy whatever you put out... thanks for all so far. Stay safe... both of you.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks for the advice!

[@arroyobaby38]

WOW!!! What a well thought out camper van. Nice very very nice!!!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks! 👍

[@ChrisAndEmilie]

Love this easy conversion and how you’re able to use your everyday vehicle as a super comfortable and well-layer-out camper!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks Chris and Emilie, yes it is great to have the option of switching back and forth

[@mictheflash]

Very impressive 👍 Love how you've thought of the best use of every space. We aspire to be able to do this with our van ❤️

[@libragirl4471]

Good lord you are efficient. You thought of solutions before they became problems. Very well done.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks! though sometimes I also create my own problems while fixing others!

[@mikeyura]

That is some awesome detail on the solar panel install and bug nets. Thanks for this video!

[@sanjaychanda10]

Very Nice idea, to have a temporary camper van set up,🥰

[@CobaltHaze]

I've seen hundreds of these type of videos & this is the best one!

[@averysmallcampervan]

High praise! Thanks so much!

[@bluejeans8001]

Very impressive design and build. Well done.

[@jayburke1601]

You are so meticulous and thoughtful to do in your approach.... Results are absolutely amazing you are a true true professional thank you so much for sharing knowledge but also very inspiring to see that it can simply be done if you break everything down and think about how it needs to go together

[@averysmallcampervan]

You are so welcome, it is my pleasure to show off the van build. And yes, just have to take things step by step and not be afraid to start over if you make a mystake! I mean, mistake!

[@jennysolomon8986]

This is amazing how you did all this, all your designs. Wow

[@zchuss1]

Epic, nothing could be improved on that you haven't mentioned. Your planning and forethought is outstanding....well done.

[@maryrobinson1527]

I have watched lots of mini van conversions for living and camping and by far, your’s is the best!!! Thank you and great design!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Wow, thank you!

[@lenward474]

Wow!! A thousand points for design!!! Replace connections with sae plugs. Two pins similar to trailer 4 pin.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Great idea! I'll look into the SAE plugs, see if I can find some the right size for the wiring.

[@scottamidon3391]

I have been debating how to do the screens... Yours is the BEST idea I've seen!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks!

[@ramonalesafifth1694]

I have watch countless mini van builds yours is by far the best I have ever seen and your video was extremely well done I am very impressed and will be using your screen technique in my minivan camper van Many beautiful blessing and many wonderful adventures Thank you Butterfly 🦋

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks

[@LuisQ7492]

A tip for securing the solar panel, install all your bolts loosely before you start tighting down. That way you have some wiggle room. It's a little tip I learned when I first startedy career as an aircraft mechanic. Get all the bolts or screws started with a couple of turns and then go back and snug them down. Great build!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Yes! that is the way to do these things, thanks for pointing that out!

[@estrellaricky1]

The most versatile van conversion i've seen so far. Excellent!!!

[@justnerii]

I get bored easily so I skip ahead but not with your video. I watched the whole thing... you did a fantastic job! I loved your entire set-up... thank you for sharing it with you us :)

[@flowers4me745]

You could probably sell kits . You did a wonderful job designing , building ,and organising your minivan setup .

[@averysmallcampervan]

Yes, seems I could have a second career with this!

[@robinburkey2466]

Fantastic moduler design! Thankyou for sharing

[@debsym62]

This is a fabulous system, it looks so well thought out and made.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks!

[@SriRaamajayam]

The amount of thought, hardwork and access ideas you put into these projects....oh my God...amazing...wonderful....extremely brilliant...:) you are the boss of camper vans! you are the official 'Camper Queen' :)

[@Samthemancharles]

You have done an excellant job!! I personally would prefer a folding bed to have some inside space for .... space. But great video and I would use many of your ideas.

[@monicawilson896]

I admire your talent.

[@juliava605]

This is incredibly well-thought-out and executed. You're definitely the queen of minivan builds! Beautifully done.

[@he7is7at7hand]

Nice job! I really like the way you did the solar panel on the roof. I was wondering how to do that. Thank you so much!

[@celinemccorkell7569]

That is so well made! Kudos to the beautiful workmanship.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thank you very much!

[@janpiper3068]

Great van, now add a "Tail Vail" for more room and a pair of "Roadie" window tents for cross ventelation. I think you would like they extra comfort.

[@Philosophicalpaperti]

I love this build! I'm researching a permanent build , not a temporary one, but there are so many great, creative ideas here. Awesome!

[@mauricepowers3804]

That is the best set I've seen!!! Send it to Bob Wells!!😎

[@unsimkim2064]

I like everything about this van and sharing. I wish I get one just like this one.you are awesome teacher. Hope and praying for freedom. Thank you for helping us.❤🦋❤🦋

[@bentheyoung1901]

Very well thought out design. I can’t believe it only takes 30 minutes to set up.

[@averysmallcampervan]

That 30 min is a bit of a work out - especially as I don't live on the ground floor!

[@trevormantey2141]

Very well thought out. Beautiful conversion

[@danagalloway1217]

I have to agree. This is one of the best setups I have seen. Thank you for sharing!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad you like it!

[@philomath_25]

you are a genius... amazing conversion... thanks for sharing

[@brisanamartin7309]

I would love to find smeone in NC to do something similar to this with my Dodge Caravan. Love it.

[@lydialangfordjoiner765]

This is amazing ! You are very talented and have done a great job! Thank You. Happy Camping-

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thank you very much!

[@jerridavis6462]

Fabulous! Enjoyed from Texas!

[@romifontana-daguerre5473]

Amazing transformation! So fast and thoughtful. Thank you.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@roxanneloyst3733]

Amazing as mentioned it is one of the best conversations. You made it look so easy.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Wow, thank you!

[@terrymathis4213]

Really neat set up.

[@acricucci9760]

I am delighted to have found your video. You have the most clever setup out of dozens of camper conversion videos I’ve seen. It’s comfy & full of great ideas I’ve never seen, some useful in my Subaru Outback. I may binge watch more of your videos over the weekend.😊 Safe travels & thanks for sharing!

[@srf2112]

Very nice modular design and work. Thank you.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad you like it!

[@michelleahrens3359]

I love theset up you have I'm glad you did the conversion thanks 😊

[@kellypoulos8702]

Amazing craftsmen ship! Travel well.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks Kelly, you too!

[@yoopermann7942]

this is just what i was looking for!!! a removeable camper set up, just subscribed,

[@averysmallcampervan]

Awesome! Thanks for the sub!

[@corynardin]

What a great build. I love the attention to detail. Everything fits so nice. You might consider XT connectors for those lights. Dual conductor, polarized, cheap and pretty common.

[@kjbaker8722]

This is genius! Well done! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@nabeelkhalid1505]

Now that's a thing. The best ever moduler camper van seen

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks!

[@moi2995]

Wow. Love how modular this is. Nice job.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks a lot! It comes from initially camping in rented vans - still have the feeling that everything should come out easily.

[@shariburns6263]

Soooo well done. Very impressive and doable.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks Shari! Glad you like it!

[@laurellawson9153]

Carefully and thoughtfully designed. Bet you had fun planning it!

[@scottphillips471]

Amazing video!!!! Very informative, excellent editing, top notch design, 100% Inspiring!!!!

[@darlene_d619]

So much fun to watch. I have to agree, very soothing narration. You did an AWE-mazing job, BRAVO!!! 👏👏👏

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad you enjoyed it Darlene! and I am glad you like the narration! I find it so hard to sound natural when I am recording myself.

[@lilred6958]

Amazingly simple, efficient, comfortable and well put together! I Iove this!

[@blueskyvideos9798]

Love your videos! Using your ideas do plan my Chevy Meriva to look around with my wife. Minimalist and functional. Thank you!

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad to hear it!

[@salavaoevans3531]

So CLEAR, YOU ARE AWESOME, Thank you so much.

[@averysmallcampervan]

You are so welcome!

[@sm3296]

Wonderful ideas, can’t wait to get out there myself.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Have fun!

[@Goodness125]

The mosquito netting! I love it all but I haven’t seen anyone discuss the issue until this. I’ll have to research on where to purchase that. Great set-up.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Yes! I sometimes wonder if some parts of the US don’t have a mosquito problem. Around here it is very much a problem except on a dry day in August. (It’s also good from October to April but then it is too cold to camp!)

[@GoTerry]

I know I heard the word "compromise" but I'm guessing someone doesn't really "compromise" .. I know because I'm one of them.. I coined the term "Exactly Correct" so I didn't have to hear the word.. Perfect.. That being said.. this job is exactly correct, well played miss

[@AnaLourenco89]

Amazing work! Congrats!!!

[@limitedtime5471]

This is such a beautiful build

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks so much

[@annaleonie2731]

It's one of the best conversions I've seen. Potential issue with the weight of that boxed fridge not being over the axle. It's a lot of weight to have in the overhang.

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks - I’m not worried about the fridge. It is a 27liter cooler, so tops it would weight 27 kg. Water jug on the left side is 10 liter. The van can carry nearly 700kg of people/cargo. A load of groceries in the back luggage area would weigh more!

[@tarnzkeenan5350]

Great set up, thank you for sharing 💜

[@averysmallcampervan]

My pleasure! Thanks for watching

[@richardbottslotsandmore5696]

Very neat set up...gave me some ideas..Take care..

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thank you so much 😀

[@waynepercifield1280]

My kudos to you. What a wonderful system and so well explained.

[@GARY-yu8pc]

You lady are a genius

[@averysmallcampervan]

Thanks so much!

[@damarisrivera4098]

This is awesome, great setup. 👍

[@tami.1111]

Wow. Awesome set up!

[@germanbini]

Very nice, beautiful set up, quite informative. However I'd recommend the solar panel should have a few inches between the panel and the roof; it will be more efficient.

[@flowerchild7820]

That was an excellent video. Very well put together. Thank you

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@leilal8053]

Clever.....I would paint everything WHITE, and.....gotta have my porta potty . Wish you would have shown the screen room you mention.

[@monicawilson896]

Nice setup

[@kayepperson189]

I need this set up so bad😢 great job

[@averysmallcampervan]

Glad you liked it - I hope it will be helpful!

[@karendixon5262]

Love this set-up!!! Great job!!!
