my mom yousis that

[@nickprice7752]

That trick with the screws on the door, that was slick. Im gonna have to adopt that. Great job man, i really enjoyed this build series

[@dreddington100]

The only thing left is to load it up with all your gear and family and head on down to your closet CAT scale and weight everything. Can't wait to see your new 3/4 ton truck!

[@billjennifer8803]

I hope Jason reports back with UVW and perhaps compares that to "as built" UVW. There are some heavy builds in there. Nice...but heavy.

[@GreenWitch1]

That’s not necessary with an Airstream. I have a triple axle, 34’ Airstream that weighs 10,000 lbs. An F250 pulls it with ease.

[@billjennifer8803]

@@GreenWitch1 ​ @earthcandleco It's a curiosity thing. That bathroom door is 1" hardwood. How heavy is that dinette? Jason's build quality is AAA but all that stuff looks way heavier than what would have been original to the unit. Doesn't he drive a F150?

[@GreenWitch1]

@@billjennifer8803 Idk what he drives, but I doubt it’s heavier. Probably lighter. My “goucho” sofa weighs over 100 lbs. The old refers were very heavy compared to an electric model like I have. I added hardwood flooring to mine & it still pulls easily. It’s an aerodynamic thing.

[@GF-ph1jp]

I think one would at least want to know for sure. Especially to make sure one is still within the axle weight rating.

[@CAJLAMB]

Amazing build!! I've always loved Airstreams and this has made me 100% sure I NEVER want to renovate one myself!

[@MattGratt]

I love that trick for painting the doors - so simple but really clever!

[@FrankRiedijk_NL]

Beautiful job. I LOVE the woodwork you did, the table, the cabinets, the bedframing with the top openings?! Man, you are a PRO. Now…. Do ENJOY the Airstream with the family….. it’s deserved and … time flies! Enjoy, thanks for sharing

[@melissayochman5145]

FYI for the people talking about there is a shower outside the camper. Those showers are for rinsing mud and sand off things before bringing them into the camper. They are not meant for personal hygiene. Shower water is regarded as Grey water and is usually either banned or outright illegal to dump directly onto/into the ground at most campsites and parks. Oregon where this airstream is housed, it is illegal to dump grey water with out a permit or recycling system in place to protect the water table as it ia considered sewage. So unless there is a water collection system configured, many RV sites will figure out real quick you are dumping. Also, if you RV you know many camps you are close to your neighbors and they will absolutely know you dont have a shower. I recommened bath houses or waterless shower wipes. Also, is there exhaust for that stove? Cause if not you are never gonna use that cook top. Grease and smell EVERYWHERE. Everything is your decision and the wood works great but RVing is work, and there are actual rules and things you need to know. A few tip videos on RV youtube channels and you would have made different choices and still would have a beautiful yet fully functional RV.

[@charlesm7132]

Spun sugar happens to be the paint color we chose for my girls bed frames! I asked my wife “does it darker when you lick it?” My daughter over heard me disappeared into her room, came back out and “no, it doesn’t get darker.” Got to love 4 year olds

[@bobbg9041]

Lol.

[@JoeSeppy]

Slick trick for painting a door! Good job Jason! Enjoy.

Ever since I started shaker drawers, my wife has never been happier... thanks, bourbon moth wood working

[@jodybogdanovich4333]

Shaking her drawers? 😂

[@azurewolfe8505]

YAY!!! The Chrome Twinkie is complete! It turned out great!

[@TheScubacamper]

😂 chrome twinkie - great one!

[@StevenCohen-s4y]

Jason, I want to congratulate you on this build. I also want to say that you are incredible talented. You are an amazing craftsman and entertainer. Your videos make a great contribution to all of us that aspire to up our game or just like to live vicariously through someone as talented as you.

[@aiwama1]

Finally finished. Very well done. Enjoy lots of trips in your beautiful Airstream.

[@David-wb2gh]

Just days before your first Airstream video came out, my wife bought the shell of a 29’ Airstream. $6k sunk. While you shipped yours off to boarding school to get properly mechanically refurbished, ours served as storage while my old garage/shop was demolished and rebuilt 3x larger. So 2 year later and we’re still at only $6k sunk. Ours is never intended to be road worthy again, so hoping we finish about 10x lower than yours. It’ll just be an extra sleeping accommodation in the woods when the kids show up with their spawn. But it’s been a pleasure to see what I’m in for.

[@brandonfinlayson6655]

Great video only recommendation, Router a groove in the bottom of the door with determined stop points. Then screw a pin into the floor creating a hidden track with stop points. Enjoy the camping season this year!

[@EmanuelYeotis]

An amazing transformation, I hope your wife appreciates all the hard work and dedication you put into it.

[@bradmaas6875]

The projects end when you do. Good luck with the projects, and may they continue for a very long time.

[@denisemorrison7616]

Well done Jason, the airstream is looking fantastic. So will we be seeing more of the house you have bought and taking apart. 😁

[@keithhanlon103]

I just binge watched the entire build over the last 2 days that was an amazing turn around, really enjoyed it good work

[@loupintarelli5275]

Your work is incredible Jason. A few pointers from those who RV regularly. You should have pushed that bathroom cabinet back more next to the toilet. All that space behind it is wasted and you’ll want more shoulder room. Also not having a shower is gonna take its toll after a while. But the fit & finish looks incredible!

[@81Lord-Nikon]

Great job Jason. Always good to finish a project. Now it's time to focus on repairing it when you take it out. Welcome to trailer life!

[@scottwhite2379]

Great trick on painting doors. On your pocket door, remove that channel on the floor. Johnson makes a plastic covered blade that attaches to the floor at the at the leading edge of the door when open. You router a slot in the bottom of the door for it to run in. It also stops the door where you want it to be open. If you didnt use them, they make soft close and open hardware that holds closed and open. A nice feature for z house and better for a camper running down the road. Great build. Im sure it will get alot of views.

[@cpl_0503]

Great start to the morning. Good coffee video to relax with before deciding what I need to work on today. I mean, it's always more fun to watch you work! Thanks!

[@81Lord-Nikon]

Wow, that is exacly what I am doing right now! How did you know?

[@maryisme247]

Great work! I enjoyed tagging along on this Airstream journey. I hope you make many happy memories with your family in it. Your craftmanship is truly amazing.

[@PavementPilot]

Awesome build, and I like the painted floors. Load it up, scale it, balance it and rescale it. You will be worry free on the handling on the road.

[@rpontonjr]

That aluminum guide on the floor for the bathroom door is going to be a toe magnet in the cramped confines of an RV! If you haven't already, be sure to pad that front edge. Also, you're never going to be guaranteed a perfectly level set up. Look at any surface that might have fluids on it, consider that the fluids may flow in any direction, and think about a backsplash or what you need to seal if that liquid goes the wrong way. For example, you don't want fluids from the bathroom counter to flow behind the counter and develop mold.

[@BobiCorwen]

Just a heads up: those little pex swivel elbows with the plastic parts will break apart and explode if the water in the pipes freeze. Happened to me. Go for the full brass ones. Thanks for the video!

[@scottsatterthwaite4073]

Nice job on the Airstream. As a seasoned camper, I give you three trips before you start wishing you had taken the time to build a shower into that thing. Using community showers at campgrounds SUCKS because people are pigs.

[@scottdavis9442]

He does have an outdoor shower and depending on the campground he might be able to setup an outdoor shower house. Personally I would want a shower.

[@akstylez6978]

The best solutions for that is to first find a campground that takes pride in cleanliness, and second, just wait until the campground cleans the bathrooms. I totally agree with you though that people can be pigs. But that's part of the ruffin' it experience.

[@mnumzanemadoda4900]

I fully agree , really nicely built fittings and fixtures. The lack of a shower is a big mistake . Wouldn`t be too tough to convert it into a fibre glass wet room .

[@ssolomon999]

Adding a “proper” shower that would satisfy someone unhappy with what’s at the campground doesn’t seem so simple to me. I don’t think there’s enough room in the unit for a bedroom, eat-in kitchen and full bath. Which element you compromise on would depend on how you plan to use it. This configuration, where you can use the outdoor shower to rinse off muddy kids and maybe you get a hotel room every few days, seems like it’d work for a lot of people.

[@KissMyFrog42]

Here in Australia, many campgrounds have "ensuite sites" - powered campsites that have a little private bathroom. They cost a bit more than a standard site, but I consider it well worth the extra cost.

[@randygeene9455]

This has been an amazing series! I loved seeing your struggles and accomplishments. I am sure that over a few years of use you will figure out additional pieces, like shelves or cubbies, that you will add later. Thanks for being so “real” with the costs and frrustrations. I look forward to your new home reno……even though you might not be!

[@witchdoc5075]

Wow...just wow. I have followed this since day one. Pat yourself on the back brother, it is amazing.

[@coreyross9881]

What a super cool project to follow for many months. Personally I can't wait to be able to buy a house and start building out my own shop, in large part due to discovering you during the pandemic. Cheers and enjoy the airstream with your family Jason! Can't wait to see more of the fixer up re-build.

[@delandbrooks3291]

You have to wallpaper the panels on the doors and under the TP cubby. Overall a fantastic build. I see where some complain about the lack of a shower, Truck stop showers are an option, you avoid mold issues and the complexity that would add to your build.

[@KickedInBirdcage]

That looks amazing! Thank you very much for taking us along for the journey.

[@scherre]

Congratulations on getting it all finished! I love how well you have blended styles to make something clean and modern that still fits the somewhat retro Airstream aesthetic. And as well as being beautiful and elegant, it seems like it will be optimally functional as well. Hope you, your wife and the Foreman can go out and have some awesome trips soon :)

[@BLBlackDragon]

That came out really nice. Hope you and the family get years of enjoyment out of it.

[@davidburris120]

Nice job! It was fun watching this build.

[@dhebard1]

Amazing job! Congratulations on finishing this one. I know you guys will greatly enjoy it for the coming years.

[@timmyd24601]

Would LOVE a compilation video for this series!

[@44tmr]

Complication? Maybe just watch them out of order? 😂

[@aaronpage1822]

Have you watched any of this series? All of it looks like a complication. I’m guessing you are talking about a compilation video?

[@timmyd24601]

Hahaha, edited

[@Richie8a8y]

What a lovely guy. Beautiful job. Can’t wait for some pics of you enjoying it with your family. Best Regards from Boston

[@suzannandelin1952]

I have seen a lot of remodels and your work is absolutely beautiful. It turned out so good. Now take it out and show it off.

[@DaSyEnTisT]

Saturday morning are the best because of your video's!! Great work ❤

[@andrewlipic8414]

Love how it turned out. It definitely puts into perspective how much a project like this costs, and you did at least half of the work yourself.

[@MomDadandTheGirls]

So happy it’s finished. I bet you all are stoked. It came out great. What kind of paint was the spun sugar? What cap/needle set were you using in your sprayer?

[@billybike57]

What an absolutely gorgeous Airstream, fantastic build. Your craftsmanship is 10+. Great job!

[@virginiatolles1664]

Absolutely wonderful! You and your family will really enjoy that.

[@ReenTheBean]

Its beautiful Jason! The hard work paid off and you and your family are going to have a ball with it!

[@chriscron5253]

Love your Airstream. Worth every penny and hour spent. The only thing I would change is the wallpaper. I lived through the 70's and I don't ever want to go back! (Of course, you could put shag carpet on the floor and that would complete the retro decor!) Looking forward to the cabin remodel.

[@jankyj2269]

Wrong. The wallpaper is amazing.

[@Name-vu1kn]

Looks awesome. A word of caution using a level in RVs and boats is risky because neither vessel is ever level itself. So something level will often look tilted in relation to the walls. It will save you from pulling your hair out, by making things parallel to the deck or another reference surface.

[@donaldleschinski1274]

Love the videos. Just want to say I think the screws in the door for painting is the best tip I've ever seen.

[@oficinarbo-rosangelobispo1882]

Caro Jason Hibbs, quero agradecer-lhe pelo seu excelente trabalho e também pelos seus vídeos. Servem e muito de inspiração para mim. Parabéns pela finalização do The Airstream, ficou TOP e continue com o belo trabalho e compartilhando conosco aqui no Brasil e no resto do mundo 👋👋👋

[@deanlindholm8663]

Great build, loved the series

[@jimbecker5675]

Great project completion. I bet that will come in handy for not just vacations, but also for when you are working on the house renovation "out there" in the woods.

[@jonwright1916]

You should take the airstream to the scales and see how much it weighs.

[@SageRonin]

Me likey the Spec Ops hammer...nice gear and a little support for our service personnel! Good on you Jason for your support!

[@simonwalker8394]

What a fabulous build, the build quality is to highest extreme. Now go and enjoy with your family Jason!!! I enjoyed the whole thing, cheers..Si..

[@peterthill]

Congratz to the Airstream, Jason. Well done and keep the good work up 👍

[@wherethehalerv]

Please don’t feel the need to explain every life decision to us! I think you made the right choice and I will continue to follow your path. Keep it fun and real as you have in the past. When are you moving into the rent house on the farm?

[@ChristianBehnke]

The door painting tip is genius! Oh, and the Airstream looks amazing! 💪🏻

[@rickyelement7783]

Can’t believe it’s done! But looks fantastic. Such an accomplishment to know you built the entire inside of that thing. Looking forward to next weeks vid.

[@jennifert9506]

Looks great. Would have never thought to go with the olive green and pink palette but it all just works. Hope we get some good not smokey camping weather this summer!

[@lindab424]

Well done Jason, it looks fab. You can tick that one off the list. Now onto the house reno. Will you also be showing us the extension reno of your workshop too?

[@erichodges6221]

That thing is awesome!!! But I would love to see what it weights now. With all that sold wood in it you might be able to put one pair of socks in it before it over weight. I could be wrong, just saying.

[@WildAcresFarms]

Weighs. The word… is weighs.

[@99andrianmonk]

Great job. Finished product is beautiful. The only thing missing from this video is a visit from your wife, who after looking everything over, says, "I really like the Shaker style doors, honey."

[@curtismills303]

That came out great. Can’t wait air to see the fixer upper in central Oregon next.

[@jayempress4203]

Very nice! Thank God it's done and now you can enjoy it. Gey yourselg one of those outdoor shower deelies...it has a frame for curtains for your outdoor shower, or something to that effect, and you will be in business!

[@PaulaHeartland]

Beautiful! 🎉 I don’t agree you need a shower. Plenty of other options. Nice having a beautiful toilet sink area. 💯

[@kevinronald4137]

Enjoy your holiday and recharge yourself for your lodge project. Take a good break like at least a month.

[@lindasteller]

Congratulations on finishing, it looks great. I just bought a van that will be built into my home. I'm not doing it myself. I have neither the time or the skill you had to do the Airstream.

[@sherribuss6374]

Great job! I have really enjoyed following along with this transformation! Happy travels, its a beauty!

[@jewdd1989]

Love all the built ins! I do think it’d be neat to see you come up with some mid century modern cabinet doors and especially in this classic rv

[@NOLAfugee]

I'm glad your channel is doing well enough to support this project. Too bad about the cable TV show.

[@tinasachs8688]

That airstream, now, looks absolutely amazing!

[@roberteakin2538]

P.S I read several of the comments about the shower. They call this kind of trailer a "Park Model" meaning you have to use the RV park's shower (Which, in most RV parks are pretty nice.) While an interior shower is nice most RVers use the shower in the RV park instead of having to manage all that grey water. Besides, showers in small trailers are always cramped and you would do a lot of elbow banging. When you do a video of camping, Jason (Which I know you will.) me and your other fans would appreciate your doing at least one scene with the white hockey mask and a machete!

[@bobbg9041]

Looks great I WOULD still do an audio system in it like a kenwood 2 din size with DVD and TV screen, and 4 6x9" speakers and a second LED type TV screen that works off the Stereo Or better yet a portable Lazer type projector you can aim at the side over a screen. Plop down lawn chairs and watch a dvd outside with. You also have room for a camp stove and other stuff. The projectors a pretty cool idea To show movies outside with. You can also use it in your driveway to watch football games on. The lazer units are pretty bright as long as sunlight don't hit the screen

[@mickysmithiii1213]

Monetary value on an Airstream is to the moon. Put it on the market, for curiosity reasons. Cuz u can't put a monetary value on memories with the family 💯

[@jasonstepteau8153]

I was driving through Ashtabula yesterday and saw an airstream and I thought “I wonder if that’s Jason” then I was like it wouldn’t be, he’s not finished with his yet. Tell me, was that you? Me and my wife love your videos.

[@the3in1workshop]

That transformed beautifully! Amazing work as always, love the look your wife is a great vision, absoultly perfect.

[@jangrahame4891]

OMG! My father-in-law's airstream had that exact wallpaper! Way too perfect!

[@shockjock35]

Jason, your voice over work is really good. It sounds like you were in radio before KZbin. Great Production!! Keep up the good work.

[@zachclose630]

Are you still planning the shop remodel series? I’ve been excited for that since you mentioned it. I’m about to start my shop set up and have been waiting for inspiration

[@larsmenken2679]

That was a nice journey to follow. And now you have a nice place to stay in outside that house you are rebuilding.

[@tbranscom1]

Its about time you finished this thing! now can i borrow it?

[@T-Top6483]

Awesome work as usual! Definitely using the screw trick for painting. Where did you get that cool mattress? I was hoping for a link, but alas, they must not have sponsored you. Their loss with over a million subscribers! I've built a tiny house on a 39' gooseneck trailer and want a mattress like that for the gooseneck to put storage underneath, although I could just use gas struts on a sheet of plywood. Thanks for your excellent videos!

[@embergrit2305]

Maybe I missed it but did you put any strap or latch to secure the barn door open for when you are on the road? Otherwise it will be moving back and forth a lot.

[@dooleyfan]

That’s a great idea to paint the floor. I might do the same with my AS, that would save loads of weight. Right now it has (I kid you not) ceramic tile in the kitchen.

[@gtuttle4]

The Airstream turned out really nice. What type of paint did you use on the floor?

[@LadyGecko]

I greatly appreciate the counter space. Yeah, you really don't need more that 18", but it's nice to have more.

[@scruffysanta8442]

Looks lovely. Curious how heavy it is in the end once fully loaded up. Does the curvature of the hull increase aerodynamics?
