I Built an EPIC Slide Out Camp Kitchen Setup for my DIY Camper Van
After building a few vans, I've never been able to successfully make a useable outdoor kitchen. In this video, I build a slide out kitchen with a flush glass sink, removable hose for an outdoor shower, and electricity for the use of an induction cooktop. I recruited the help of my sister to help me make an olive wood epoxy resin countertop. Follow along with this one to see how I did it.

Yo! Build plans are up on my website 👉 dualexbuilds.com/plans/sliding-kitchen 👈 if you want to try to make something similar. Plans are free with an optional donation. Let me know if you want an in depth explanation of how I did the plumbing for this video. Thanks for watching!

You need to start charging, anyway another job beautifully and well done.

[@tonyawilliams507]

What's your sister site address?

[@gailhitson6722]

Beautifully stunning counter top... your sister is definitely talented with those shapes of dry wood!

[@ebaynautica1361]

What you charge to do my Trailer I got cash

[@TexasPinklady]

What can't you do- just amazing...proud of you young man!!!

[@jodiz7803]

Your Sister is an artist too? Kudos to your parents!! That countertop is to die for! 👍

[@georgecarousos6735]

This young man amazes me every time I watch one of his projects.

[@cre8myreality216]

Agree. His skills are amazing

[@a.garvey951]

[@coreybrown6739]

My thoughts exactly he's a very talented craftsmen.

[@crystalalexander3856]

...and why am I surprised..he can sew and build🥰😉🙂

[@robertbalkovec4087]

Yeah. I like his style.

I'm 72, however it's a gift to become a 5 yr old again watching a genius at work/play! 😍👍🙂 Thank you

[@benjaminbeksel719]

Man, your sister the epoxy artist, your wood working, plumbing, sewing. It’s all so well done, and a beautiful end result!

[@kennyborahae]

I am just... amazed... per usual... but sheeeesh! The counter 😭 and how do you high-tech a water jug??? Like that. Now we know. Just wooow... duuuude.

[@SheilasVoice]

Both you and your sister are great at explaining and teaching. ❤️ Another amazing DualEx build!

[@T3erryC3ooper]

Both you and your sister give me hope for the future! I have been a journeyman for many many years and have seen the decline of young apprentices particularly in the past 20 years. The push for college and the removal of vocational programs in our high schools are most likely the cause of that however, I believe video's like this could help inspire others to, put down the controller's and pick up some tools! Great Job!

[@jamesshields1969]

Brother, you have a beautiful talent, i seriously can watch your videos for hours just in absolute awe

[@Iamaveryseriouspersonhonk]

A family of artisans. Very valuable to society.

[@rapturousangel9987]

Nice. Your sister does really nice work too!

[@catlynx7820]

All your work reminds me of when I was little. We camped all the time. My dad (an engineer) build what we called the Camp Kitchen. He measured everything out and made this awesome compartmented box that held everyting we needed for basics and all we had to buy was fresh foods. It closed up so critters couldnt get in. Now that I'm grown, I find I do the same thing "for everything" I do. (and sometimes it's mentally exhausting) BUT it's crazy fun to "idea create". It's so much fun to watch what you create!! - I feel like I'm watching kindred soul spirit 😻

[@richardcosta9014]

I HAVE NO DOUBT IN MY MIND YOUR THE BEST !!! the inovative ways are nothing short of a blessing ,may god continue to bless you with peace happiness and health best wishess to family.

[@joanies6778]

Wow! Love, love, love the woodwork! That countertop is phenominal. Also love that you used the same piece of wood to cut out all the front pieces so you can see the wood rings across the whole front. Very impresses! Thanks for sharing.

[@marytaylor1187]

You are something else…so creative and talented!!!

[@gingerjolley9027]

Awesome! The counter top is amazing.

[@justmonathefurcrew9009]

Great job as usual Sharieff! Everything organized in one place👍 There's only one additional item I'd like to see in this kitchen, is some sort of tent over the back doors. A tent set-up you could cook if it was raining (like the day you were building the kitchen). Your sister has mad skills, also! A talented family🏆

[@melindachristisourhope6255]

That countertop is beautiful...

[@lauratibbles6598]

[@hankcuccina5260]

Impressive work by both of you.

[@bernadetterj3]

Superb. A beautiful gifted family! Totally awesome!!!!

[@JimmySlaughter]

That countertop turned out really great! I'm always picking up new tips and ideas from build videos and now I think I need to buy some corner framing clamps and make a router sled. Also, I feel your pain about the drawer not clearing the rear door. I had similar problems on my Transit Connect with my fridge and my stove cover. The lesson learned was to dry fit over and over, before committing to a final design. I look forward to seeing more of your build.

[@kyleransom7668]

Elite skills! Nice work.

[@moe2552]

Love the videography! All those close up shots must be incredibly time consuming… and then there’s the editing. All a pleasure to watch, an excellent display of your patience throughout the build process. At the end of it all - beautiful product!

[@tergar1]

Just a beautiful countertop. Thank you for this video. 👍

[@DrMott]

Totally epic!

[@Ruby-t2f]

[@rhondamcknight2596]

Love the epoxy counter. Very cool.

[@JustSayin6092]

That counter top is a beautifully unique piece. Consider doing that in your future builds as your signature piece. The type of woods I've seen you using in your builds are beautiful as well.

[@SoulfulSmokie]

You are amazing... "I'm not a plummer" but he puts together a working sink. In another video he said "I don't know how to sew" but he makes plate and flatware holders. Dude you can slay what ever you put your mind to do. You're an inspiration.

[@gslavik]

The one plumbing mistake he made is to use Teflon tape when there is a rubber gasket in the connection. The tape made it seem like a tight connection, but that connection is supposed to seal on the gasket.

[@anthonylewis9055]

he probably isn't any of those things he stated, but damn, he is an incredible cinematographer!

[@heathervieira2609]

I have been subscribed to you since your first cargo van remodel into a tiny camper! And i know from then until now he has come a long way!! You transformed this channel into something informative and you have learned so much since you started! You have learned everything as you go and I'm a firm believer in hands on learning!! So happy for you!! ❤️❤️😋

[@marlamcgill8563]

I am fascinated by both you and your sister. Also you are such an engineer. You find solutions. I am just amazed

[@homehomeontheroad3003]

Enjoy your videos. Love your work.👍🇨🇦

[@peggyt423]

Great job it looks amazing

[@VonBluesman]

Great job. You need to use some Teflon Tape for the water hose connections, it is a white plastic tape in the plumbers section of the store. You can use the liquid pipe dope but some fittings work better with the teflon tape. Some water hoses will have a plastic butterfly type end (it flares off of the plastic nut) that you use for gripping while tightening the connection. One thing you might consider is making a hinged type door front along with an extended slide out for the electric cooker, that will give you more counter space for prep, etc. Congratulations to both of you, great to see your sister getting involved and being creative. Y’all are doing great work.

[@gslavik]

Teflon tape is only needed if there is no rubber gasket inside. This is one of the cases.

[@mattl9867]

@@gslavik rubber gaskets get old and frail. Always good to have that backup

[@greggfletcher8759]

@@mattl9867 actually the tape will prevent the fitting from seating properly as it wedges between the threaded..... thats why it leaked in the video.

(We have remodeled a house and travel trailer together and I am currently working on a van.) It is a pleasure watching your creations and content. And your videos skills are on point. Thank you sir! Blessings.

[@raynoladominguez4730]

I love your stuff man. That countertop is beautiful and your technique for the sink cutout is so smart. Nice kitchen.

[@charlotterohde7383]

Wow! Wish I had seen this sooner. Seems like a great way to add sturdiness to a wooden panel to make a door, instead of having to add nail or screw in a lot of shiplap. Love this technique and it saves on purchasing a lot of wood. Will try using sage brush branches that we have in abundance here on the High Desert homestead in Osino! Thanks for the awesome technique. Cheers,

[@berylwilson3311]

OMGoodness you are both fantastic, hope you have built your own business out of your hard work and talents. This is by far the best every video I've ever watched good luck to you both.
