Loved this video, Mav. I really admire your work habits, keeping your shop clean. Makes starting a new work day much easier when you clean up night before, You don’t get overwhelmed or discouraged with inevitable mistakes , and you even use your awareness of your occasional “scrambled brain” to be nice to yourself and think things through again. You’re an inspiration! Thanks a lot!!

Awesome build Mav! You can see the time and attention that went into planning this new build. Sad to see the old build go but excited to see all the awesome memories you're going to make a share with this new build... See you on the road.

Hey Mav, Some friendly advice from a more than hobbyist wood worker. When it comes to staining and or painting. I usually turn to a wet sponge or wet towels and pre dampen the surface. It allows the surface to open up and take in more strain or paint. After a few coats have dried you can always sand or steel wool to smoothen out the surface.

So you lightly dampen the wood with water before oiling/staining/painting?

@zachadsitt3087

2 жыл бұрын

Correct. You dampen it then allow it to dry before staining or painting. You'll feel the texture of the wood has changed due to "opening" up the pores of the wood. It's why when a piece of wood hasn't been properly sealed (like a kitchen table or coffee table) and someone places a drink that sweats without using a coaster, you get the raised ring where the cup sat. It is reopening the pores of the wood.

Love that you're so "real" and figuring things out as you go! Humble and honest, and just moving ahead getting it done! Thank you for the video.😊

I’m old. In my life I have been a house framer/rough carpenter and a Bank VP. You seldom see contemplation quite the same from bank employees as you do with carpenters. If carpentry is going to work. It has got to be right. Great job young man.👍.

Nice build, gave me some good ideas for a build I am thinking about. One suggestion, I didn't see anything for electricity if you are at a campground with power. Adding an outlet outside the truck cord going to the back makes for handy power. Nice for winter camping to use an electric heater or even powering small appliances without having to use your battery in back. If you pay for power at a campground you might as well use it.

Building out my truck this weekend so this was perfect timing 🙌 Really clever build man, got some great ideas from this. Keep up the good work!

Sick build. Hardest thing with projects like this is making the design decisions and then bitting the bullet to make the cuts. Turned out great.

Love how it turned out and you got it done pretty quick even with the mid build change. I built out my own truck bed last October and it’s quite similar to your last setup. Right now I’m renovating a camper to take out to Montana this summer and it’s amazing how many little unknown issues you encounter along the way in projects like this. Also figuring out measurements and actually cutting the wood is always the most stressful part to me.

Great idea on replacing the plastic bedliner with the BedRug. Insulative, sound deadening, easy to slide things on and fits every indentation and grove in the bed because it's made specifically for the model and impervious to almost all spills and damage - darn near bulletproof.

Love that the floor is removable to increase storage and sleeping! That twist was a nice surprise!

This is awesome! I built a very rough version of this years ago right out of high school but you did a great job! The floor pulling out and turning it into a bigger bed is genius!

I really like the layout that you did. I like the flat storage on top near the cab with the cubbies underneath, makes for a perfect nightstand when you're sleeping. 👍👍

It looks great. The amount of effort and work you put into it is amazing. Very dedicated.

I was wondering why you didn't engineer an in-fill for the double bed and then you revealed it! Very clever. Maybe some kind of foldable mattress could work as a seat & backrest during the day, and then flatten out to a double at night? Also looks like it might be more of a pain to cook outside with, but I guess that's a worthwhile trade off.

what a neat solution, and great work done. It seems to be very practical and well thought-through. What would be interesting to know: the material costs. I do not have a truck, "just" an SUV, but one never knows what the future brings. Many features of your built can be used for an SUV as well. Congrats on how quickly your channel grew

Nice! More elegantly done than previous plans I've seen and more useful. Thanks for posting!

The pull out floor panel that can extend the bed platform was a solid idea! Keeps it module. Nice build dude!

When you said you were redoing the truck, honestly I never expected it to look so epic. It's a fantastic design upgrade! I think it it will serve you very well!

I've been watching since your first build. Nice improvements! Looking forward to watching your first overnight.

Nice work! That center foot area is a great fishing rod storage area, or skis, etc. Love the butcher block desk too.

This is such a satisfying build and the fact that the kitchen slides out for outdoor cooking is so damn cool. Great job.

You are an admirable, decent and humorous young man and I truly enjoy watching your many adventures whether it be driving down to the Grand Canyon and camping to remodeling your truck interior. You motivate and teach people of all ages so much from independent traveling to cooking to even woodworking.

I've seen you use the truck build plenty of times since this, but it's the first time I've seen the process. Very cool. Functional and good looking. Smart design.

Nice build! Really enjoyed seeing this start to finish. I’m not even getting to take a trip in the truck and I’m excited to see it in use. Keep on truckin !

Thank you for continuously putting out amazing content! You’re living the dream, we should all be so lucky! You’re an inspiration to us all to live our best life!

That's honestly one of the coolest builds I've seen. And I pretty much only watch camping/ vanlife/ van build videos. I would probably replicate this over any build I've seen to this day.

This is incredible Mav. You have learned so much and are really becoming quite the builder. Well done!

Epic setup!!! My day isn't complete without watching your videos! Calms the soul & mind. Thanks for the content!

I spent way too many hours in a ford truck for work. That key chime puts chills up my spine. The water based sealer products will always be water soluble.

Mav!!!! This build was amazing… wow. I didn’t expect something like this at all and I LOVE every single detail 😍

Great redo! What convenient storage and it looks wonderful!

I've absolutely loved coming along on your journeys over the past few years. It's incredible to see your mind work out the different pros and cons while you worked through this build. I can't wait to see your upcoming videos. I'm pretty sure you're one the most genuine and down to earth people on KZread. Keep putting out your authentic brand of content and always stay true to yourself, Mav! Thank you for what you do. It's always a bright spot in some otherwise tough days.

Dude you're such an inspiration. I've done little upgrade to my van, because of your videos. I also use my van for work to deliver throughout Oregon, so I have to have as much space for cargo as well as myself.

This video just made me smile. Thank you. I love the way you have an idea and just do it. Good luck to you.

Heck yeah bro, loved every minute of watching you build. Can't wait to see it in action! Keep on trucking!

I would've recommended securing the walls of the drawers via pocket holes every 8-12 inches but I think your way works too! Looking good!

I must say Mav, as a professional wood worker, I'm thoroughly impressed with the skills and quality of this build. I'm not sure if you have any prior work experience in this field, but I'd definently hire you for sure! So excited to see where this new set up will take you, (and us I guess lol!). Great job once again Mav, and I'll keep tuning in from Greensboro, NC! Much love brotha boi ❤

What a cool layout for the drawers and rollers. Awesome build and i like the multi purpose center piece. Dope

Hey Mav, had you given some thought to maybe making the front of the cubby for your stove hinged or removable? That way you’d be able to leave the stove in place while you’re cooking outside and free up some countertop (tailgate) space for food prep. You might have to line the drawer with stainless steel or something so it doesn’t become a fire hazard but think it would improve the feng-shui of your outdoor kitchen. Otherwise amazing results on the makeover, it’s super well thought out!

Hey Mav, One of the things that i just seen was on your cutting board if anything is cut on the bucher block that may leak a juice it could fall into the storage below and damage stuff or the metal brackets and be a hard clean up job. If it is used as a cutting board at least.
