    Anything THIS well thought out qualifies to me as Art. “Industrial Art” but true art to me. Narrator has such a good heart telling about this vocation-passion he is doing. He doesn’t love the camera, I kinda dig that about him. What a smart kind and skilled fabricator, he could work on my imaginary Van. He tells the why of his excellent materials choices and how to use some of the details of the build.

My concern is keeping the shower curtain from touching. And would there be enough depth in 5he shower pan? The shower pan would be recessed into the floor across the door opening.

    We do build on the 144! Two different layouts with a long list of options. None with a murphy bed, though, sorry. We've done murphy bed layouts in the past and find the fixed bed + garage layouts to have less compromise, but do see the value of them for certain applications.

    Hey Ben, another beautiful Hudson! I’ve been meaning to ask, what do you do to keep all that beautiful woodwork from warping over time especially the sink cover, and I know there’s wood sandwiched between those pieces of acrylic, it seems to me that with the moisture, rich environment of the Van life,that could pose a problem long-term? Has anyone had any problems?

    Thank you! Great question. The butcher block holds up remarkably well with periodic maintenance (applying mineral oil) like you would do for a cutting board. It only takes a minute to wipe it on and it creates a food safe barrier to prevent water intrusion. It also looks amazing. We have had some clients who didn't do it often enough, with the worst cases resulting in cracks. It hasn't happened all that often but as a result we've recently switched over to using a food safe sealant/finish that creates much more durable and long lasting protection that will look and function great without the need for and maintenance.

    Absolutely! We use 3M Thinsulate behind the walls, which works quite well. In combination with the Webasto heater / "furnace" you can absolutely camp out in Aspen in the van! That type of thing is quite common for our owners.

    Good eye. No these are the stock wheel/tires that come on the sprinter. This client is planning on traveling mostly on pavement and occasional dirt roads. They chose to try out the stock setup before choosing rubber so they can make a decision based on what their needs actually turn out to be.
