Truck Camper Mobile Office [We Built an Office] NuCamp Cirrus 920

In this video, we share how we solved our mobile office needs in our truck camper. The NuCamp Cirrus 920 Truck Camper came with a standard dinette which is perfect for camping and eating. However, since we are full-time RVers and live in our truck camper, we decided to remodel our dinette to allow us to work more comfortably on the road. Now we each have our own desk and still have use of the center table for paperwork, projects and meals.
This remodel was done while living on the road. We were at a campground and made use of their picnic table and the basic tools that we carry with us all the time. The end result isn't fancy, but it works!

I ABSOLUTELY love the office!

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks!! It works perfectly for us and Scott did a great job building it.

[@hawkeye8712]

Hi guys again I just want to say you made a great idea, and made it work.. You have made great ideas ,along the way and you have given me inspiration. Be safe out there along the way and God-bless.

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you so much for your kind words and for following along our journey!

[@hamrobert1469]

Very nice rework on the space you both have.😀👍

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks. It’s been working very well. I finally finished the table. I radiused the corners, sanded smooth and treated it with mineral oil. The whole setup has served us well for almost 2 years now.

[@terrylarkin690]

Very nice setup

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you!☺️

[@derrickclemons2862]

Great Modification

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks, we love it! I'm sitting at the desk now and your comment reminds me of what a huge improvement its been. I just have to make some small changes to finish things up :)

[@ajshaghzo]

You two are very creative and talented in your own ways. I enjoy watching your vlogs and am at times very impressed by your ability to create and adapt based on your needs and environment. The modification to your office/dinette to a proper office while incorporating your dining into the mobile office was very clever. Bravo you two! Sasha, my grandfather was from St. Petersburg too. Thanks again

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you so much for your kind words! This lifestyle can be very stressful and it took us awhile to adapt and work as a team. And Scott is very handy! Our dinette was great, but it didn’t suit our needs as full-timers. This new office has been working great. I’m so glad Scott was able to build it! And that’s amazing, what a small world! Saint Petersburg is a beautiful city.

[@ppineault]

I first saw you guys on 'story chasing' channel and found your youtube channel. I'm presently gearing up to transition to living in a truck camper full time and often thought, since I'd mostly be travelling alone, that the booth dinette setup in campers was really impractical for me and wondered about setting up a work space instead. Haven't watched the rest of the video yet but the work station setup up is great...and even incorporating the chairs to also provide more storage space is kind of genius...thanks so much guys; that was so helpful!!...Look forward to watching more of your vids 😉👍

[@Stonyboot]

The new office setup (which I'm using right now), has been a game changer for us. It allowed us to make better use of such limited space. We have easier access to our commonly used items, we each have our own space to work and sliding the table out for meals has become one of our favorite features. I have some updates and changes coming in the next few weeks. They will solve some small issues we have encountered. Thanks for following along and leaving such awesome comments!

[@ConsidertheWonders]

I liked the moment in the time lapse where your jigsaw blade followed the gap on the picnic table. Subtle movements are just efficient. 👍 well done.

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks. Cutting aluminum with a reciprocating saw can be difficult. Having support on both sides stopped it from bouncing all over the place. To my surprise, no damage was done to the table!

[@nightfall22]

Absolutely brilliant

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks! Scott spent so much time planning and building the setup. And now that we’ve been using it for the last 6 months, we are so happy to have separate areas for work and food!

[@gratefuldude7511]

Thank you for making it. Well done.

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks for watching!

[@TheJourneyAwaits]

Looks nice. You did a great job.

[@Stonyboot]

The Journey Awaits thank you so much!🤗

[@pault1964]

Nicely done

[@Stonyboot]

pault1964 thank you. It’s been working great for us. Someday I’ll put the finishing touches on it and make an update video :)

[@jeffreyfrankenfield9486]

excellent video, wish you guys the best of luck in your travel and building your channel !

[@Stonyboot]

Jeffrey Frankenfield thank you very much!

[@jimmcgettigan4826]

Nice job👍

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks, so TSC been working great for 2 years now!

[@Outdoorish]

It looks great guys! 👏🏻 glad you were able to find a setup that works well for you 😄

[@Stonyboot]

So far, so good. We have some additional changes to make in the coming weeks !

[@kathifoynm]

That was one of the coolest time lapses I've seen. You two solve problems together so well. Thanks for sharing. Also, I love seeing you get in and out of the camper.

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks for the comment! We wanted to show how we get in and out of the camper when we aren’t setup fully. It’s really nice for quick pit stops and when we don’t feel like swinging the bikes out and lowering the stairs (sometimes we don’t have that option when we park in strange places) thank you for watching!

[@tompredmore]

Love the time lapse.

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks for watching!

[@c11p]

This is the best video (and best channel) I have seen on KZbin in months. Really, really well done. And at the end - 19:10 - the sync of Sasha's smile to the chime in the soundtrack.... sublime.

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you very much for the kind words. It's really nice to have someone notice those little details, thanks for commenting on it. I'm learning how to edit as quickly as I can (we are new to this) and I love timing the music and small details. It's nice when someone notices :)

[@m3pedro]

Pure genius.......I love it. Congratulations on the build!

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you, it’s been a life changer. It’s really improved our productivity and comfort. Still not a 40 foot 5th wheel, but it’s much easier to maneuver!

[@Growingupinthe80s]

Brilliant! Cirrus needs to have this set up. Maybe they will now - thanks to you guys!

[@Stonyboot]

It would be a nice option to add. We would have purchased this as an “office option”. With so many full timers, having a mobile office will probably a growing feature.

[@bituingmarikit]

This is amazing

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks, we love it too!

[@johnonthespot6227]

That Scott is quite an industrious man! At the FINAL STEPS "intermission, I refreshed the popcorn and got a drink refill! I hope the trip to Lowes is a short one. Great work!

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you for your kind words and for watching! It was about 30 minutes each way. We made many more trips out to other stores looking for chairs and furniture before we decided to just build it and order those strange box seats from amazon. They are much better than we expected!

[@rvnut1133]

Kudos to you bud because I would have given up at the first screw ordered a pizza and go watch Netflix.

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks! That was a long project, But we are so happy with the results. We use it everyday and it’s so much better than what we started with!

[@charlesandrade1585]

Casal muito lindo!

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you!

[@SustenanceNCovering]

I agree!

[@johneskrich362]

The time lapse really shows how well thought out this mod was

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks! It took a while to plan out such a small space. 9 months later, its still working great. We use it every day.

[@Growingupinthe80s]

You can cut grooves on the pull out table extension like cutting blocks to help catch spills too.

[@Stonyboot]

That’s a great idea, if I come across someone with a router I might do that. Thanks!

[@PERKO1966]

Caravan and RV builders need to look at these options. I would love an office in my van, so much so I would buy one if they had a functioning office feature

[@Stonyboot]

I feel the same way. So many people are hitting the road full time AND working. Office options would be awesome!

[@VTDivot]

I know this is an older video - on your table height and stability... have you considered a table on a piano hinge off the desk with a fold down monoleg? That way it would be the same height as the desk and supported. You could use the same table - all you need is a few dollar hinge and a 1x2

[@Stonyboot]

I did consider it. Similar to what you suggest. However, we wanted to make use of the stubby table while working and to maintain access to our shelving without having to raise the table. It was my first design, but I went with the slides after a great deal of thinking. So far, it’s held up well. The rails are getting a little loose and I’ll replace them soon.

[@SustenanceNCovering]

Thank you so much for making this video.

[@Stonyboot]

Would you mind sharing what you found helpful or useful? We are still learning how to make useful videos and every bit of info helps us produce better content :)

[@SustenanceNCovering]

@@Stonyboot I have recently purchased a truck and am very tall, and very old. I will be purchasing a truck camper soon, and know that I am going to have to do some modifications in order to sleep comfortably, sit comfortably, and function comfortably. Your video proves that truck campers can be modified according to the needs of the owner. The modifications in this video give me hope. That is all that I can tell you.

[@Stonyboot]

@@SustenanceNCovering Thank you for elaborating! It helps us understand :) Good luck with your truck camper purchase, have you decided on a specific camper or are you still hunting?

[@SustenanceNCovering]

@@Stonyboot I've been looking at truck campers for about 30 years. I have only recently been able to get a truck heavy enough to carry one, so until my truck is road worthy, I won't be making any kind of purchase. The truck that I got is a 97 Ford F350, so I cam pretty much get nearly any camper that is available. So far, all that is certain is that I probably won't be paying any more than $2,500 for it. I need to have the camper on the truck before September 23, 2023

[@Stonyboot]

Sounds like a good plan and you still have some time to locate the perfect rig. Good luck in your search!

[@TF856]

People used to put the bike racks on the front of their truck. Probably because they were pulling a trailer. My dad even put his spare tire on the front of the truck cuz he had nowhere else to put it on the truck.

[@Stonyboot]

I do have the option, however... It blocks my headlights and visibility, and it also beats up the bike covers. I wish I could just fold the bikes up and put them in the glove box.

[@lifererouted]

That looks great guys! We ended up doing a similar thing in our travel trailer. It's great to have a workspace! I'll have to check out those cube chairs too. Nice video!

[@Stonyboot]

lifererouted thank you so much🥰 what type of trailer do you have? And yeah, these chairs have worked out great!

[@lifererouted]

@@Stonyboot we have a Grand Design Imagine 2600RB. I love seeing truck camper couples on here! 😊

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you for checking us out?

[@ppineault]

And just watched the rest of the video!...the time lapse was brilliant...was spellbound by the entire thing. It was fascinating and a delight to watch, and especially loved the sped up instances where Scott is sitting there musing as to what steps to take next and how to proceed going forward...Also, was still torn as to whether I'm going to go with a smaller Class B motorhome or a truck camper. Even though I'm not (yet) all that good at it, I love and really look forward to learning how to do more DIY things and watching Scott using the pick up bed as a work area?...that settled it for me! :)...Thanks again, Scott and Sasha! 😊😘👍

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you for viewing and sticking around for the Time Lapse. I recorded all of it, but I had no idea how to really use it in the video. I figured put it at the end and if someone wants to watch it, great! It started as a pretty simple project and quickly evolved, those moments of sitting and pondering my options were the times where the project grew. I cut most of my musings out, but left a few for people like you!

[@ppineault]

Stonyboot LOL… Honestly, the musings were some of the best parts and it’s too bad that you didn’t leave more of them in! :-)… I often say to people (and a lot of guys tend to be the worst at overestimating their abilities) that any project that you do endeavour to go forward with, be prepared that it’s going to take at least two if not three times as long as you originally estimated! :-) Honest though, it’s great that you included it all in the video, Because it’s so helpful to other people who might have the same project in mind and gives them lots of ideas :-)

[@Stonyboot]

That’s so true. My current project seemed so simple in my head. The first 2 hours of test firing parts has me redesigning most of my electrical system. So much for a quick project.

[@ppineault]

@@Stonyboot well, I'm still kind of in awe of you that you can do any of those things at all :)

[@Stonyboot]

Patrick P thanks. Like most people, I have my strengths and weaknesses. Don’t ask me to write anything legibly or organize paperwork. Or in the case or Sasha, ask me to learn a language. However, mechanical stuff comes easily.

[@solodu1116]

well done

[@Stonyboot]

Thank you so much!

[@TillHecomes444]

Hi! We saw your camper at a scenic pullout place in Weston, Maine yesterday (Sept. 6)so we looked you up! Thank you, we saw you move so we could see the view!😊

[@Stonyboot]

Oh yeah, we remember that. We had plenty of time to stay there so we were keeping out of peoples way when they stopped to look at the view. Driving up route 1 has been pretty cool!

[@TillHecomes444]

@@Stonyboot I think that would be a nice ride! We live near Camden. Route 1 goes through there, too. Did you go all the way from NH up Rt 1? I like the video! Always love to see how people live in small spaces.

[@Stonyboot]

We took route 1 most of the way. I95 for part. 90% route 1 though. It was cool to see both ends of it this year!

[@TillHecomes444]

@@Stonyboot that’s nice! I’d like to do that sometime!

[@Stonyboot]

@@TillHecomes444 we hope you can do it someday!

[@richardkoch8752]

Did NuCamp stop building the 920? Seems like a perfect size for a couple or a single traveler. I love your conversion! It really made a great multi purpose area. I'm surprised you didn't do the majority of the work with your Leatherman LOL!!!!! They are a great "do all" I checked the prices on them.......holy smoke!!!!! But I guess if you added the prices of the tools it can replace........it's a bargain! ;)

[@Stonyboot]

They 920 is on hold, they will build more when they get caught up with the 820 and 620 demand. I love my Leatherman, but I dread the day I have to replace it. I lost my old one about a year ago and had to fork over $138 for a new one. But, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. People ask that question, "if you were stranded on a desert island and could only have one thing, what would it be?" .... Answer :My Leatherman"

[@AFKDays]

That is an epic time lapse! What was harder the time lapse or the project? That is brave to do a time lapse for the project. Most of my projects go sideways at somepoint!

[@Stonyboot]

The project took about a month and I never really knew where it was going to lead. I decided to record all the steps and figure out how to tell the story later. I had about 5 hours of 5x time lapse, so that’s 25 hours of recording. We skipped many of the trips to the stores like Walmart, target, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Marshall’s, etc. It took me about 6-7 hours to just trim all the time lapse down to useable clips. It was quite a project, but I didn’t want to just throw the footage away. I sped the time lapse up a lot. I wanted to show how it was built without actually trying to provide step by step instructions since I don’t think too many people are going to try to copy this. Just providing some ideas 💡 The actual project is about equal with making the video. Lots of time and learning for both!!! Thanks for the comment!

[@ronaldrobertallen9102]

Nice setup, are you guys full time campers?

[@Stonyboot]

We sure are. Getting close to 2 years!

[@jmonserrat2018]

Great video Scott, I know you have very linked space, but where do you store all your tools ??

[@Stonyboot]

Thanks for watching! I have most of the tools organized in the back seat of the truck. We did a video that covers it somewhat called Easy Organization and Upgrades in a Truck Camper. I share some of the changes I made to the truck to help with storage.

[@brooksBG1]

Thanks for the travels & videos! I was wondering about the brand name of your Ram truck front end storage holder, and your back end mount for your bikes or motorcycle, please?

[@Stonyboot]

Hi! We got the front end storage holder off of Facebook Marketplace and it didn't have any brand name on it. The front hitch is a DRAW-TITE 65063. As for the bike rack, we did a full video. It's called: "RockyMounts BackStage Swing Away Bike Rack On A Truck Camper - Durability Review - Will It Survive?" You can find links to all of the products in the description. Thank you!

Luck or the draw I guess. And no, we are not related in any way! 🤪
