Tyll's Step Van Tiny House Tour E436

[@abs2fast2furios]

Glad to see he's healthy and doing well. Still miss him at InnerFidelity but wish him the best on his journeys.

[@sidvicious3129]

I second that Tyll was a Legendary Headphone reviewer and their has still been no replacement for him. I’m glad that he is happy and he can live his life out as he chooses. Very few people have the courage to do what Tyll has done and I wish him and others who do this the best.

[@keithusace4352]

Well that's as simplistic a build as I could do and darn near everything you would need . Bravo.

[@eatonleo]

Tyll, being an audiophile, I appreciate all the accomplishment you have achieved to help the community. Thank you!

[@halliadams5987]

Ingenious cooling system! I never get tired of seeing people's cool and creative ideas. Kudos to Tyll for a job well done!

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he had several unique ideas there

[@cottagegymfun]

That thing is total stealth, even the rear bumper (inbuilt tool box) looks totally legit as a work truck. Love it!

[@Anthrit]

His heating and cooling system was what blew my mind and never thought about it. He is also a fellow Montana man like me ... He is a win in my book.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

the ventilation system is really awesome. I think he'll be adding a set of fans to it soon

[@christinamarie3598]

I love his design!! Pretty ingenious guy. Every design with a "garage" make sooo much sense. The thought and execution of his design...sooo cool.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he didn't mention it, but he used a CAD program and had everything planned to the inch (and executed his build accordingly)

[@sdnlawrence5640]

I like idea of tool box that can double as a work bench or a cooking table or even fab a top to make a (patio) deck; and if mounted on a receiver hitch, you could even remove the whole thing for entry into national parks and area where overall length is a consideration.

[@brucemercer7753]

But he does have to give up an EXIT door to have that garage. That is not cool to me. But at least he is an original.

[@Ohsage1111]

LOVED the way the lid lifted on the toilet. Clever. And the curve in the bedroom divider is very attractive. Cool! Thanks for sharing.

[@freedomfred6518]

Tyll gave me a tour at the Van Build Party. I am still in awe. He is an awesome craftsman for sure.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he's got skills!

[@antoinep9733]

Tyll’s a legend in the headphone world, now he’s a step van legend too! Great to see you again friend, enjoy your travels.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he told me he used to do headphone reviews, but wasn't really aware of his background until meeting him

[@antoinep9733]

Seven Wanders the World It’s like running into Pele at the mall and he tells you he used to kick a ball around occasionally 😂

[@Paul.Douglas]

Awesome and unique ideas put into practice. One of the best conversions I've seen on youtube. The evacuated air space is GENIUS!

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

Tyll has a lot of talent!

[@religionishipocrisy]

you sir, are a genius. that wall cooling system you designed is fantastic. I'm saving this video for when i build mine. Thank you for sharing this!

[@judyhobday4760]

love his cheerful demeaner. Love his dog. I am pleased he has a ceiling catch for the cupboard. So many people do not have this feature which puzzles me.

[@helened6896]

An exceptional build. I love the extra insulation and creativity. Love the large tool box on the back. A great idea that it looks like a work van for greater security. A great guy too. I love his beautiful personality. Good success to you, Tyll.

[@bemccune7671]

Brilliant idea with the ventilated walls! Its so simple and practical but wow, that's awesome.

[@lisathompson5742]

Fantastic. This man has sure got some unique ideas like for the cooling system. His idea's sure work and I hope he keeps on inventing his ideas and like he said when he does these he don't know if they are gonna work or not! I hope they carry on working for him. Your ventilation system man that's amazing 👍👍👌👌🏡🏡 Thanks for letting us tour your home it's incredible what you have done in a smallish space. Happy travelling for hopefully many many blissful years. Lisa UK xx

[@lizlo8586]

This man has an excellent step van, so many creative ideas. What I liked the most was his cooling ventilation system.

[@tripperdonnie]

Met Tyll at the RTR, amazing van and super cool guy. Plus he really knows how to throw a party!

[@danielblanchat2320]

boy howdy

[@floridaboy34601]

This guy had a great idea with the way he insulated his van. Using his fan to draw out the hot air in the walls is genius. I will do this with my bus. Thank you for the video and thank him for the idea.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

I'm happy you enjoyed the video!

[@lizzy2shoes557]

Tyll looks to be an incredibly Fun, yet Valiantly WISE brother! Hats off to you both with these Fantastic Step-Vans!!!

[@mischef18]

Now that is one cool dude bro, some inspiring ideas he has in the van. Thanks for videoing and showing. ATB

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he gave me several ideas for my own build

[@KL-bg8fi]

👍🏾👍🏾 I like the composting toilet & the door seperation the front of the van to the back of the van !

[@wendyadams3754]

Between you and Seven I am convinced: Itis going to be a step van conversion for me. And, Tyll, you have a fantastic personality. I am half in love with you on the strength of this vid alone. Great little home.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

Tyll has some amazing build skills and a wonderful step van. would be happy to have you join the small group of us with step vans (and perhaps cross paths with you some day!)

[@RVingLiveTheDream]

Nice van. You did an awesome job. Welcome to,the wonderful world of RVing !

[@stevenleith7663]

Hello there, putz is a rocket scientist. I've never seen such a cool step van. Ingenious practical and user friendly. I'm impressed as heck. More videos please. Thanks

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he definitely has some skills. I think you'll enjoy my upcoming box truck tour which I'll upload later this week

[@ArtsyLadyCrafter]

Like the turnbuckles/latches for the cabinets, smart and simple stealth props in cab, love the bright white interior too! TFSharing.

[@cam-bo11]

Wow!! I love brilliant, but simple solutions and this guy seems to have mastered it. Love how light and bright the interior is as well.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he definitely has some fantastic skills!

[@Mity_Moose]

Seven. Thanks for sharing that tour. He is a cool guy, and very inventive. Lot's of ideas there.

[@tomcaldwell5750]

Wow! Great conversion. Thanks Seven and Put for showing us around.

[@queenlorea2094]

You have wonderful ideas to create a very homey step van lifestyle. Thanks for sharing and many blessings❣️🌲🎁♥️

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

Tyll has a wonderful build

[@vanlifethetravelinfranksho5611]

Excellent cooling system. If I've heard right most step and don't come with air conditioning or Cruz control. This brings stepvans back onto my favorite vehicle list for van life. Yay!!

[@saradanser894]

Who could possibly not like this sweet lil van & man??

[@mongo5888]

Dont forget his puppy copilot! 😁

[@marcdewilde518]

Very very interesting video. Wonderful ideas that do not break the bank and a no nonsense design- great job - ATB Marc - Belgium

[@judyjudyjudy9593]

Seven I want you to know that you do an excellent interview! This man did an incredible job of creating his van! No wasted space either!!!! Clean too!!! Thank you Seven! Be careful, have a great "rest of your day" see you soon!!! LOL Judie

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

Judie, thx for the compliment! I prefer doing interviews were the other person does all the talking and you hear very little from me

[@Japhill75]

So practical it’s amazing...!

[@ronmiller7916]

Practical? What's his gas mileage? Shouldn't that factor HEAVILY into your definition of "practical"? It certainly factors into mine.

[@Japhill75]

Ron Miller hey Ron....! Thanks for stopping bye and ripping my comment to shreds buddy..! If you want a conversation around your thinking ... I’m happy to chat . What do you think is not practical? In my humble opinion there does not seem to be much that is extravagant or superfluous. Interested in exploring your thinking👍😁

[@RunFromHumanContacts]

Oh wow the idea with the seat! What a great idea! Love ur dads painting

[@shauna5466]

What a great build!

[@lindaroyal8161]

Very nice, good layout, well thought out, very practical. Like the guy also, great personality. thank you for sharing.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he has a very upbeat attitude toward life

[@excelsiorservices351]

Linda Royal un

[@regginaldwilliams9381]

Super clever and I love your electrical design.

[@robinkatsu]

from every van build i get at least 1 idea and from you i will copy the stealth details hemet, hi-vis vest and clipboard thx

[@trentmason009]

I love how smart these kinds of guys are! Very fun to watch and be inspired.

[@Scorpiomary]

Yes some cool ideas. He said he lives in MT.. I was raised there and my family still lives there. Me ... I am in Florida, me and cold we don't get along to good. I loved his build. Thanks for sharing.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

Montana is a bit too cold for me in winters, but lovely in summers. quite the opposite in Florida. I lived in Tampa, Lakeland, Orlando, Del Rey and Ft Lauderdale. summers were brutal with the humidity but winters were quite nice!

[@triaticnomadics1108]

Great tour Seven. Love the long cabinet and cabinet door idea from Tyll.

[@Seastorm-nh8cv]

Love the cooling system! Keep us posted this winter regarding the heating of your home! This is one of the nicest step van conversions I have seen. I just saw Sylvan Secrets, too. And the walls are straight. You have provided us with a lot of creative ways to live the life. Thanks...will be watching for more!

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

Tyll has some great ideas in his build. thanks for watching!

[@allenrousseau5668]

Hey Seven! Wow! Thank you for sharing Tyll's step van tour! Wow! So many ideas put into reality! Love it! Love the doggy box too! [My doggy used to sleep on the dog house [eng cover] had a big cushion their! They always wanna see whats going on I guess! God bless! And God bless to Tyll as he starts his new journey! Enjoy the coffee! Savoring each moment!

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

happy you enjoyed the van tour video. Tyll has an amazing build

[@rhondawaldron]

Wow even better than I anticipated

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

a very cool build

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Great van tour, thank you! This was a great find! 7:06 - it would have been very helpful at this point to focus the camera on what was below the table rather than remain fixed on him. Ditto for other moments. Always let the camera roam to what he is talking about, not stay fixed on him. Then the video becomes more interesting. Tyll's sandwich walls and heat draw system are genius! Very clever Tyll! I wonder if it would help even more to make holes below the van and draw cool air from under the van (always shaded) into the walls and van interior? I saw an engineer do this (Dave Orton) with his tiny Ford Transit conversion. He made a plug on the floor of the interior living space that could be pulled up to create a hole to suck in air from under the van. He said, its always the coolest air since is it always the shaded area. Smart concept! With regard to heater, you may want to check out the cheap $200 Chinese diesel heaters that are similar to Espar, Webasto, and Truma. They come with their own flat small diesel tanks and are very efficient in low diesel use, have NO condensation, easy to refill at any gas station, and no danger of explosion like propane. Propane has condensation, explosion, and you need to find costly refill stations. What a great van build, so interesting. Please make a separate one to explain the insulation, and how it works in more detail. This deserves some exploring. Concept is easy to understand but easier to implement if we see details. Thanks again, well done!

[@skilso]

I am from U.K. and watched many of you reviews. Good luck with your venture

[@joanmilano5302]

Wow! What a great setup!!

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

I agree; it was very well thought out

[@dejonsmall9886]

Seven, Dude you really hit this out of the ballpark. Tyll did an awesome build. It doesn't appear that he lost any/much space with the roll up door in the rear. I'm going to follow his build...Again this was fantastic.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

happy you enjoyed the video! it was a really nice build

[@carpenterfamily6198]

Wow - lots to like about this build, but that cooling system takes the cake ! 10:41

[@hickman7909]

lol,funny thing had checked out your web site yesterday,and this morning found you on you tube and give dart a big hello

[@matthoward1174]

Great build! Really nice and well worked out step van.

[@alvaradacosta293]

Hey buddy.. I really liked his cooling system... excellent idea... glad that it's working well for him.... I hope that the winter months work out just as well..... Good job Tyll

[@bobsmyth9069]

Double insulated wall with airspace... GENIUS!

[@jamiesmith1343]

the heating and cooling system is ingenious, you need to patent that! great build!

[@HippieLongHaired]

I like the bumper/toolbox and work area. The cooling system is genius. Wouldn't it be nice if you could get the swamp cooler to work by evaporating your grey water. Bravo.

[@dominicgreen115]

TYLL!!!! My man, he is a legendary audio guru! Miss your brother!

[@cathyann1601]

What an inspiration! So many great ideas!!!

[@michaelblasi9412]

Wow what a rig, well thought out and quite the craftsmanship! Great interview Seven.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

thanks Michael for watching!

[@sueg2658]

He has used some very creative ideas, great job!

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he is a talented builder!

[@bohoxplorer840]

wow really well designed love the pop up counter top over the fridge, Great utilization of space in this build. Wow what a great design on the cooling system you came up with..wow. I wish I could do this in my Bus,,but I could never designate 4 inches in each wall....Plus I have all of my original damm windows still in place,,, I have to take care of that in the spring .

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

it is an amazing cooling system

[@mattolsson8816]

I would love to hear more about the cooling system and if there has been any problem with condensation between the two walls of insulation. Great ideas in this one! Thanks!

[@makiwa]

Nicely done Tyll..... I like it!

[@vincentmaes3554]

I like the insulation aspect of your build. Good job.

[@lindaclark5911]

Tight ship! I like it clean light awesome!. Montana in winter whoa! Thats impressive!

[@gogomas]

Excellent build, well done.

[@freedomring4813]

I like my plain 5 gallon bucket and wooden toilet seat and a one use 13 gallon trash bag.....poop ,pull out, tie and throw away. No wasted space but the size of the bucket stored away. Other wise nice job.

[@carriedugan6769]

Great ideas!! Tyll looks like a great guy to camp with!! Happy travels!!

[@SylvanSecrets]

I want that window!!! A very nice composting toilet. No one seems to believe me that they really don't smell. Glad someone get's it :)

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

I'm pleased to see others doing the composting toilet. I should have mine built in the next month or so

[@sbb6779]

Yeah, this guy is awesome. If I remmber right he had a giant following on his headphone review material. Glad to see he's enjoying his retirement.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

you are correct about his headphone reviews

[@Cindhypallares]

I love how clean and minimal and simple his rig is!!

[@bobsargeant9540]

What a great piece of carpentry and integration.

[@ronhart4166]

love the finish colors. easy on the eyes!! great way to store the fridge also .

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

his countertop setup is very smart

[@euphioquestion420]

Awesome conversion! Will definitely incorporate some ideas, thank you Tyll.

[@georgepierce8535]

Brilliant! Even without the fan, the hot air would rise and draw cooler air in.

[@305dreamhonda]

Nice interview, and you sir, savor the moment as well.

[@raynoladominguez4730]

Smart, this is my favorite conversion to date.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

mine too!

[@46B3x2you]

Thank you Tyll, and Thank You Seven. Lovin it !

[@rosabivins2558]

Beautiful home.. thanks for sharing 🤗

[@stephaniesmythe8449]

Fun. I keep learning. By the time I get my van, I might have some good plans!

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

it is fascinating that we think we know what we want before building, then once we have it we realize somethings are simply not how we thought they would be or work like we plan... I think that is why so many van builders go thru 2 or 3 floor plan builds

[@hing4200]

amazing set up, cool step van.. thanks Seven wanders show us this video.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

happy you enjoyed the video!

[@bob_atwestmi_fl_us7812]

very impressive and so well thought out, nice.

[@webbrowne2291]

Great step van. Interesting concept on cooling.

[@gilbertfranklin1537]

By now I have watched literally hundreds of van tours, and this is at the top for several reasons. First, Tyll is both clever and ingenious, plus a great craftsman. I really like his cabinets, and the inner wall ventilation is spot-on. Then he tops it all off with a wonderful personality, nice disposition [happy smile] and near-perfect presentation. Someday a TV producer will find him and really give the Van Life philosophy a huge boost.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he did a day by day build series of photos on cheap RV living in the build forums. it was amazing to see his build progress

[@jamesnobles4050]

Hello,,I enjoyed looking your build,i can also used some of your ideas,i have a 16 ft van i sell fruits,boiled p nuts on the side of the road 4 days a week to make me a living,i use 6 ft for my bed and living quarters the other 10 ft is storage for the many differant fruits i sell on the roadside,i park in truck stops at night time,just like i did when i was a trucker many yrs ago,,now i am OLD 72,and retired,and live alone,i plan to install solar (3) 300 watt panels on top for my air con,thanks everyone,,good information here in youtube,

[@CoffeeTRuck3914]

good job, you actually integrate stealth RV and food truck together. it's a good idea.

[@TheTruthKiwi]

Man, youtube and the internet are an amazing thing. A couple of hours ago I was doing some research on looking at getting some good quality headphones and found Tyll's review on some I'm interested in. I liked his laid back and intelligent demeanor and checked out some of his other vids. Then was shocked to discover he'd retired! Seem's like a pretty tough job to retire from so I totally understand! (I'm just being a smartass as I'm sure he had a day job too). Anyway, discovered Putts and his blog through this video. Sounds like he's had a varied and interesting life from serving to electrical engineering, audio engineering, CAD and goodness knows what else. Just skimmed the vlog so far so looking forward to an interesting read. He hasn't been on there in awhile so hope he's ok and is living the dream. Thanks for sharing

[@DROY2004]

You’re mirroring my future plans down to your pooch “ Dark” & electric bike, my plan is to sell my house, buy a UPS/step-van modify & stock it to my style & needs & live full time. My plan is to live in New Mexico/Arizona area, living in the 7000/9000’ level in summer & the desert in winter, all you need is a few roof fans. I’ve found that a minimalist life-style is better for me bc the more “stuff you have, you don’t own it, it owns you” in repair , time & money. Good build , good tour! Shalom!

[@wainedodd8055]

what a great guy and a cool van

[@lindareinen4361]

Very smart insulation idea! 👍

[@geraldhenrickson7472]

Nice parce l deliver van!I really like the cooling system. In my grumman ford step van I went with 5.5" thick rock wool (r-19?)for super insulation and sound deadening and it works great. I just need to insulate my front wall for really extreme temperatures, You are correct...insulating is the biggest project involved with step van. The only more difficult insulation project is a skoolie. Don't ask me how I know!

[@micmike]

some cool ideas and plans, thanks for sharing

[@Nana__________________________]

This guy is a character. Love this one.

[@motercycle80]

That was very interesting and the van look good nice build and fascinating concept on air conditioning

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

I've never seen a ventilation system like Tyll's ... definitely unique!

[@jameslaiola4976]

Now this is my full dream. I really love this and yes I thank you for your video.

[@irenegriego2446]

I like his set up every thing is nice,neat,you can get to every thing,have a nice design of your bed.thimbs up

[@sarge27271]

Love how man can be so ingenious. Great stealth build! Cheers

[@rebeccatreeseed410]

Second time I have watched this. I am impressed by his cooling system.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he does have a unique cooling duct system

[@cliffp.8396]

The insulation and cooling system in this build are truly unique and interesting.

[@SevenWanderstheWorld]

he has some great skills!
