Hi Friends!
I recently moved to Seattle from San Francisco! It has been a big change but am finally getting my footing....kind of. Join me on my adventures though the city and experiencing tons of things for the first time! If you have any video ideas or suggestions of things to try just leave them in a comment!
See you in the next one!

Where did you fit all the cooking stuff? Maybe on the bed or platform till bedtime?
With this layout can you access your spare tire in the rear without unloading the platform?
What was the final tab?
Liked the cover and mesh over the back. You can always sell your platform build, if it doesn’t fit your next vehicle, to someone with a CRV and make a little profit
The best video I’ve seen that walks you through and explains everything so good on how to do this. You can make some good money building these for people
Eric Enjoys Earth has a five ppanel version. The front and back panels both slide back to make sofa style seats. The two panels involved are joined by hinges. The fifth panel is narrow and used to hold the panels down. His design requires a frame for the panels to move around on. I think Eric and you use heavier timber than needed. Go back to Home Depot and find some actual bed legs. They are much skinnier than yours. I intend to adapt Eric's idea and make torsion box panels, perhaps 40mm thick. I'm undecided between 3mm and 6/7mm ply. It should be a lot stronger but lighter than your design.. Weight costs fuel. I have used an interior doom as a bed, it works well but can't be folded. Those are torsion boxes, 2040mm long.
Too much side talk
Exactly
First off, congrats to Rose for doing everything by herself with no previous experience. However, to anyone interested in making a bed platform for a Honda CRV, watch the video from Matt the Designer with the title "1 Sheet of Plywood Collapsible Platform" It is a similar design to this but in a much more refined, better-engineered version, more practical, and more functional as it also includes a slide out table. It costs the same and even though it looks more complicated, it isn't as he lists all the cuts you have to make and then assemble it.
Thank you for the dimensions I’m doing the same thing and I have the same year car
such a great walkthrough thank you!!
Try Furminator Deshedding Shampoo and conditioner when you give her baths it’ll help cut down on the shedding my dog sheds constantly and when we started using it we noticed a huge difference!
Super helpful! Thank you for walking through all the details!
How do I get up there with out a car?
6:31 not that it matters but your level is upside down…. easier to see if it’s not upside down.
Nice video🎉
I might have my birthday party there thanks for the insightful review! Thou it seems like there will be heavy traffic esp at Saturdays that kind of scares me.
Thank you. This was helpful but I wish it had been shorter. Also, I really wish you had said what year SUV this is? I'm looking for an adoption for a 2014 SUV and I never heard you say what year your car is. (But I did rush through the video because it was long.)😁
So glad that I landed on your vlog and instantly subscribed. I am guessing that you are an Engineer in the way how you planned, documented and costed the assembly. Fine work and congratulations. Been watching several videos in my quest to convert my 2014 CRV. I rank you a #1 for the simplicity of design, fast, easy to Camperise (my own word!) and restore to original vehicle. With any conversion, the ability to access the spare tire, and little extra space in the well (though a rarity..) was a concern with the CRV. This design should allow you to lift the entire back platform up by removing the locator pin, and may be propping it up with taller wooden legs temporarily held by locator pins and get access to the spare tire. Other option I would prefer would be that the 2 back legs near the trunk door side could be hinged so they can fold flush with the under side of the platform to easily access the spare tire without disturbing / moving the back platform. To restore the legs, un-hinge the legs to upright position and use a locator pin to prevent it from folding and stay upright. Since access to spare tire is important, I wouldn't build any shelves on the underside, and limit the space underneath to removable plastic storage tubs or such. This is the first video of yours I have watched so far, and will be binge watching the rest of your series. Also whenever you visit any campsites would you please provide some details of that site with regard to the location, name, amenities, cost , safety etc which would be very helpful. Once again Kudos for a great Job!
i loved kaya`s apartament!
Coming from 600 sq ft in NYC, I am jealous of the closet space 😅
our new place has less :(
Carpet on the plywood platform will help keep the mattress from sliding. I like the idea of the low height containers. I have to pick up the platform on mine to get the containers out because of that lip at the back.
That is very similar to what I did in my 2016 CRV. I used the same video you did to start with. I built mine with more support legs since I am 6'1" and 300 pounds. I wish I had seen this video before I built mine as you did a couple of things differently that are better than the way I did it. I can't wait to see your other videos!
What's worse, not knowing the boiling point of water or not knowing what the Sydney Opera House looks like?
What a great idea for a video!
Great video, Rose! You're so cute.
2023 was the year for moving!
So much smitten!
What a great year! On to the next! ❤
Aunt status!!
ZAC CAMEO
awesome job. its not a drop pin, its just a long screw. people that are going to use this. buy 3/8 dia. , 3" long screws
Man that’s so cool! I wanna go!
The koala staring at you 😆
It’s amazing how many of these videos make it seem overly complicated. Your drawing with the dimensions is one of the more helpful plans I’ve ever seen and yet so simple. Thank you!
Thank you! I did not understand how these puzzles worked until now. Great video!
Very nice video and voice.Thank you !
Hi, what was she scanning on your phone? would you mind telling us how do you buy tickets?
Hello! I have a clipper card in my Apple wallet on my phone! You can load money onto the card and use it to pay for the bus, bart, and ferries!
@@RoseCatherine can i just use the munimobile app to pay for bus? Or do i need clipper app?
Home Depo is paradise although half the people who work at my Home depo have No clue where things are and what those things do. Thank goodness I learned from my Grandfather and one of my uncle’s. I have a 2003 crv and she’s the best car I’ve ever had. Love my adventure wheels.
did you have to have snow chains with you?????
Yes! We did!
I would go back in an instant! So worth it!
We moving we moving!
This video really captures the essence of this great place. The hiking trail is especially amazing when it's foggy.
Thanks for the vid Rose! Fellow CRV dreamer here, gonna use this vid for my inspo 😄
If you still have the build goodies, I'd be interested to purchase them. I have a 2015 CRV. TY.
I live in Hervey Bay so I can tell you the people in Hervey Bay are extra nice and friendly. I am an Aussie and have lived in many different towns but the kindness and friendliness I have found here in the Bay has been outstanding. I hope you enjoyed your visit here. 😊
We had an amazing time there! So grateful for the kind people too ❤️
Wonderful job!! You are delightful to watch ❤️
You stopped short. You should have kept going into Tiburon. Even more beautiful scenery. Then you can ferry back to the city.
Hopefully you’ll meet a like minded young man with a fully built van 🚐… did I forget handsome and rich 😉
and a Gentleman too.
Island life was absolutely surreal. So fun to live with the locals!
So cool Rose!! How far down were the sharks?! 😅😅
