I really love the idea of having a "full" shower available. I cannot see anything amiss. Bed, lounging chair, full tv (not that I watch it that much anymore, I watch more KZread movies, videos, etc)., big enough kitchen to cook and clean after. Excellent design and workmanship. Very impressive, Robert.

John, you should check out some of the other replies and also look in the back on the video. I have a huge amount of storage. As matter fact there’s so much storage that some of the storage bins in the back of the van are actually empty. I can continue to carry the bins because you never know when you might want to buy something along the way. However, that being said, there is more than enough storage for clothes or anything else you would like to carry. Is it as convenient as being in the front of the van? Well, no, of course not, it does require some thought as to what you’re going to do the next day and take it out and move it to the front. That being said it sure does free up a lot of space in the front for actual living rather than storing. Appreciate your comment. 🙂

I suppose there’s lots of different ways to live or travel in a van. Let me address the specific examples that you cited. Clothes storage is handled in the back in some of the containers that you saw in the video. There’s actually 15 of the plastic containers. Right now I have some that are empty, nothing in them, space to spare. Two of the drawers that you see beside the refrigerator are also empty. What I do for close storage is keep the bulk of the items in the back of the van and only move a few to the front as I need them i.e. two or three T-shirts, some underwear, some socks and maybe shorts or jeans depending up on the weather. I would assume in a home that everybody does a similar thing by keeping clothes stored in their closet or in their dresser and only bringing out what they need as they need it. Correct? Since raincoats are usually wet when you bring them in, I hang mine it in the shower. After it dries, it goes in the glove box in the front of the van so it’s easily accessible when needed. If you look in the video you’ll probably see several pairs of shoes sitting in the back of the van in the garage area. I do keep extra shoes, lol. As far as the trashcan, unlike in a home where you have a can and you store the trash for a day, two days, three days and then you take it all out at one time I just use the plastic bags that I bring groceries in and fill those bags with the trash then dispose of those on a daily basis. The place for the clean bedsheets is on the bed. You don’t carry around a lot of linens. Towels, washcloths, sheets, etc. When it’s time to clean the sheets you take them off, clean them, dry them and put them right back on the bed. When living or traveling in an area that is 70 sqft I just don’t have the luxuries that I have in my beautiful home. Everything‘s not perfect but it is sufficient. 😊

I love how simple his build is. And this is the first one that I've seen that only has the build on one side. I was thinking about doing that when I go to build my own, but was worried about if the weight needed to be evenly distributed on each side. I want to keep the van open in case on rainy days I'd still need to entertain my dog. She's 90 lbs and is up my butt every step I take. So I imagine it could get tight when she's following me around. Or if we do some brain games on the floor she has room to stretch out. I love watching these videos for inspiration.

@Robertsramblings

6 ай бұрын

Thank you! I know it looks like all of the weight is on one side when you’re just outside looking in, but I put an in-depth explanation in one of the other comments. If you really want to build a van like this, then you should find that comment and read it. I believe it would explain a lot as to how I balanced the weight on both sides. A lot of the weight is in places that you don’t even notice unless it’s pointed it out to you. Another thing that everyone has overlooked is there’s no upper cabinets. This in itself makes the van feel a lot more open. A transit van is less than 6 foot wide at the top where the cabinets would go and if you come in and add a 12 to 16 inch wide cabinet on each side, then you’ve lost a lot of the openness. It just makes it look and feel claustrophobic. I’m utilizing the garage area for a lot of the storage that most people will put in the living area of their vans. Is it a little more work, well yes, of course it is, but is it worth it? Absolutely!

I was the first one that got to look at it and I knew it was going to go so I purchased it. It’s got a separate bathroom good size also. no structural damage the engine was rebuilt about 13 years ago and so was the inside redecorated. I’m cleaning up now. Going to take the toilet and Blackwater tank out for a compost toilet Going to take the refrigerator out because I don’t want propane refrigerator so it’s out going to take part of the booth out and put in a Laguna table. After I clean it, I’m going to paint it. I’m kind of excited and a little scared. my husband died and I always depended on him and I want to get out and about a little bit to start with.

It sounds like you have a good plan. Good luck with your build travels.😊

I love the bedroom. It's so cozy and perfect for a side sleeper like me. I like to watch tv in bed.

This one’s not set up for watching TV in the van. For someone who didn’t want to watch TV in bed you could easily add it to the wall that’s just on the backside of the shower. Had considered that but didn’t get around to it. 🙂

Very clean look. Well done Robert.

This van is 🔥 🔥🔥🔥. The set up is the best minimalist example. I like the smaller bed to have space for the shower. 👏👏👏

Yes, I am slowly converting over to a minimalist lifestyle. Not for the faint of heart. However, I have come to learn that if I don’t own it, I don’t have to dust it. 😊

very nice build.

I need something just like that, very clean, nitid, well done and comfy, it's perfect.

This build is beautiful; you can't even tell it's a van from the inside. Everything is clean, streamlined, and efficient. Despite everything else being perfect, I can't unsee the countertop in the back of the driver's neck😕

I’m not absolutely sure. I understand what you mean about the countertop. It is right behind the drivers seat. The back of the seat comes up above the countertop so when I’m leaning back, I’m not actually touching the countertop. There’s the back of the seat and the headrest just like it would be if the countertop wasn’t there. I hope that address your question. If not add another comment and I’ll be glad to clarify as much as possible. Thanks. 😊

ive watched alot of these videos, this is a top notch build.

❤Perfection ❤

Good luck with your search. I looked also and couldn’t find what I wanted in a factory built. That’s why I ended up building my own.

Love it! Beautiful build. I'm carnivore also!!

@@Dee-kg9lk I first started with keto about three years ago, and then because of the simplicity of not having to figure out how many servings and carbs and sugar that was in what I was eating I switched to ketovore. For the same reasons I then took it the rest of the way to carnivore, probably about six months ago. If you’re familiar with Dave Feldman and the concept of the lean mass hyper responder, I’m a hyper responder. Last cholesterol check was about a month ago with a total cholesterol of 281 and loving it!
