Full Van Conversion Explained Start to Finish / Sophisticated DIY

[@Qurrixx]

I'm planning to convert a Ducato myself this year and your videos are by far the best I found. Not only you know a lot about this and explain the rationale, but you also show it in a fun way. Thanks!

[@barbwire8280]

Wow, just wow. How smart you both are and what a workshop you have. Have so much fun in future travels....Just a bit jealous ! Be well

理想を実現できる技術力があるというのはうらやましいです。 素晴らしい動画の共有をありがとうございます。実は何度も見直して見てます。

[@linusnanor1531]

I wish I was just discovering your channel. I found you during midsemester exams and I just couldn't stop watching the series to study. I finished it all within a week, just before my last paper.😂 Now that I've completed I wish I had the patience to wait to come home and watch it. But I'll rewatch it all.

Wonderful van conversion! What material did you use for the water tank?

[@Bakkiepleuah]

The knowledge and perseverance Margaret and Ladi is insane. I could not top this level of motivation, but I am willing to try!

[@osmannurig]

Ihr habt super Arbeit geleistet. Die Auswahl der Materialien und der Farben sind euch sehr gut gelungen. Ihr habt Geschmack. Allein euer 3D Drucker hat zu eurem Projekt sehr viel beigetragen. Die Umsetzung eurer Planungen ist penibel, genau und sauber umgesetzt worden. Das technische Equipment lässt keine Wünsche offen. Du kannst auf deine handwerkliche Leistung stolz sein. Ich wünsche ich allezeit gute Fahrt.

[@boysrus61]

It looks wonderful. You two have great problem solving thinking minds!

[@Fixajo]

Thanks for the short summary! I hope to see even more in-dept about the unique features of this over-engineered to perfection tiny van!

The whole build is episodes on their page

[@a.w.thompson4001]

There is a wealth of knowledge waiting for you in the build videos. 👍👍

[@garylee7729]

Very very interesting video! It's not often at all that I watch a whole video but this was so interesting I was transfixed for the whole 30 minutes. Probably the best one I've ever seen. Thank you.

[@cedarcanoe]

This is the best work on a camper van I have ever seen.

[@Jtrekvulcan66]

Great job. Practical, Secure, Accesible, easily maintained.

[@denisecafferky2248]

Love your ingenuity and attention to detail

[@a.w.thompson4001]

The level of detail in the design and in the build videos is mind-blowing!

[@napoleonadvanture]

Love to see how you build your van - all the ideas, solutions you created. Great job - greets from Switzerland

[@pavelmuller2095]

The best self-build van out there! ❤

[@SmellyCatCreations]

Really great to see it all in one video and lovely conversation. The solar system is awesome. Extra points for a under seat cat box ❤

[@robertbogu4794]

For sure it's the most impressive build I have ever seen.

[@johnscrivy]

Very good presentation and fantastic van build

[@akinnon2000]

Thanks man. This channel really got me going, im built 3 e-bikes, loved it so much i decided to learn electromecanic in school. Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm.

[@chriscooper3140]

This is the best van kitchen i have seen. You made it look so easy!

[@nogocux]

It is crucial to have a 3D printer accessible 24/7! 😂 Great build and I love that the video is packed with practical hints! Well done! 👍👍👍

[@ladiandmargaret]

Crucial? Not at all. Just convenient for what we do.

[@jorgeribeiro4413]

The entire project was clean and well designed. everything in its place and very practical. professional

[@mathiasschmid1884]

Very nice Build, i would like to see more about your Solar Frame Lift

Great video... with great explanations and logical opnions... have a blessed time

I am so jealous of your working skills. I have a 3d printer, know cad, but I have no knowledge of welding, plumbing and electrical

[@jorgeribeiro4413]

The motor bed project was perfect, congratulations

[@garethlewis3647]

Best van build I have ever seen.?!!!!!

[@Dippemesss]

Best video ever seen about camper van build

[@Atek]

i love this couple xD keep doing this .... huges from Portugal !!

[@Adam_Gray]

Perfectly designed, crafted and implemented with the end-user in mind, that, being yourselves. 3D printing your own themed holders, switch housings, etcetera really adds to the overall visual aesthetics that makes your van truly "one of a kind" . Seeing your skillset being put to full use reminds me of a quote from Arthur Fletcher - "A mind is a terrible thing to waste". I am now following along to see where this journey takes you. 👑🚐💚

[@johncooke1386]

Very nice van. Using fabric is a great idea. Your workmanship is first class. Great job. John from Cape Cod

[@philhounam523]

FANTASTIC! A very enjoyable watch, I’ve only just discovered your channel. It’s so pleasing to see people doing a really professional job.

[@moonbackside]

Best Van building Video I ever saw...❤

[@paul9532]

Great compilation of a wonderfully skilled build. Awesome skills learned and very well executed! I love the use of different insulation for different purposes. To save some money, I would think where applying k-flex, you wouldn’t need sound deadening, because k-flex also does that. ❤

[@l.s.tukbigbud7715]

THAT'S NOT A CAMPER VAN... THAT'S THE INSIDE OF A P.C TOWER.... AWESOME BUILD....🤙✌👍

Thank you very much for this video... I need a step by step guide and this suits me. Cheers from Most, CZE.

Really impressive build guys!

Wow 🤩, amazing build 😳 ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Trying to fit in a double bed with two singles underneath at the back, also leaving room for a garage space is proving difficult.

[@rmewhirter]

You’re a very handy couple. Great job!

[@carterk9239]

Absolutely INCREDIBLE.

[@dannywilson5852]

Great conversion!!! looks Awesome!!!

[@Ohiostategenerationx]

Very beautiful and well thought out build.

[@kathleencomyn5228]

Every time you cut into the van panels, you should have painted the exposed metal with rust proofing paint. For example, your windows and your out power holes, your exhaust fan vents are now cut exposed metal that will rust out.

[@jorgeribeiro4413]

its beautifull. very good project. congratulations. When I retire I will do a project like this. perfect

[@djohnson2362]

Love watching you guys

[@juliemac5604]

You guys are amazing.

[@mattca353]

Truly impressed. By the way, you could save a TON of space from the ebikes by learning to ride electric unicycles. Its challenging at first, but absolutely nothing beat the size/range they provide. Plus, they are a ton of fun. Only drawback is that its a "gear up, all the time" thing, but you seem to be safety conscious already 😊.

[@ladiandmargaret]

I had a unicycle few years back and I absolutely loved it! 5 points of contact on a bike is much safer and allows more aggressive riding.

[@mattca353]

@@ladiandmargaret yeah, ripping at 70kmh+ on a EUC is a bit more challenging than on 2 wheels 😁

[@ladiandmargaret]

It is, more dangerous in other words :) Less practical for bringing cargo like groceries when we park off grid. I always had this concept in mind of keeping one EUC in the trunk of our small car where I can’t fit ebike. Super cool for quick transport within a city.

@4:56 did you consider a double layer of solar panels to extend for the same weight? Like, maybe 2 layers of flexible solar on an extendable frame that becomes an awning?

Speechless. Thanks for sharing. One question though, why having the bikes inside and not with a support on the outside?

[@Ms.Frankenbuilder]

Very cool, good job.

[@painmaker1667]

How much has this truck cost you so far, my friend?

[@rolandrick]

That’s awesome how thoughtful and clever you built up that camper van. I love it. Guys, I don’t have the workshop, the tools, the skillset and patience to build one myself. From you I’m sure I can get the interior design suiting my needs and not the same boring, almost identical floor plan of all the major companies out there. How much? Are you at the Suisse Caravan Salon Oct. 24th to 28th in Bern? If so, what’s your booth number? Will definitely visit you.

[@jandevlieger0]

Great job .. what is the final weight empty???

[@hectorblogsviajero1623]

Genial 👍😃👌 quiero una

[@naydendelchev8435]

Very good job.

[@Haleysjeep]

Curious whether the roof panels you used warped. Perhaps a follow up video on how well everything held up and if you would do anything different.

[@ladiandmargaret]

It’s all good so far. We built it slowly and carefully so nothing major we would change.

[@You_Can_Do_If]

Very cool video.

[@paddi9543]

Master.......work 👍👍👍👍👍

[@stripes4u]

Beautiful !! Where did you get your roof-windows from?

[@brucemontgomery8136]

ladi any reason foam insulation couldn’t be blown onto the bottom of a coach , obviously protecting the mechanical elements? ty

[@MarkStoks]

You mean the underside of the van floor? I also always wonder why this is not done. It will also protect and insulate the water tanks.

[@brucemontgomery8136]

@@MarkStoks yes the chassis from below avoiding the greater parts of the mechanicals( exhausts/ engine, drive train) i’d foam the black & gray tanks wrap the exposed water lines ( if any) in a thermostatic electric tape, etc why not?

[@chewchew74]

Spray foam installation would be the best way to trap yourself from outside but it has to be given enough time to cure, otherwise you might face very hazard health issue. There are so many cases in law suit against foam installer in many homes. Give it a enough time to cure !!!

[@jvenema86]

so wonderful beautiful video my best friends

[@randomdamian]

I need to share some knowledge, the white glue you're using to glue the fabric to the wooden panels is actually bad, like the glue is very bad. There is better glue for it, how do I know? Our family owns a car upholstery and we make luxury car interiors and also repairs. This glue will loose it's power once it gets lil too humid inside the van.

[@ladiandmargaret]

Can you share the name and type?

if you have solar and insulated flood. why not infrared floor heating? Its a light addition to diesel heating when its not that cold and you dont wanna run the diesel heater all the time

im rlly curious where did u learn all these things? So many different skills you 2 have its crazy. Was it all self taught or how did u come to this??

[@jandevlieger0]

I ve Build 2 Vans , and really wonder if you guys are able to stay under 3,5 ton .. kinda important point to mention in instruction video not to get into troubles .. which I had the first time .. I love the build don t get me wrong Its super inspiring .. but is it possible under 3,5 ton and safe ??… 😊

Since no response I guess you guys are overweight 😅 if not would be good to know would love to be wrong and copy you guys

Because new base is more than double the price.

I'm not sure ship wool is the best insulation as it keeps moisture and it could grow mold there
