Welcome to my latest build adventure, I'll be transforming an ordinary work van into the ultimate luxury camper for under $10k! This includes the price of the van itself. Join me as I share the entire process, from the initial concept to the final result of the build, all captured in detail!
In this video, you'll witness my passion for DIY and love for adventure come to life. With creativity, resourcefulness, and a tight budget, I've managed to create a luxurious home on wheels that rivals even the most extravagant RVs and vans on the market.
Follow along step-by-step as I tackle each aspect of the transformation. From gutting and insulating the van's interior to crafting ingenious space-saving storage solutions, I leave no stone unturned in our quest to create the ultimate travel haven.
Equipped with state-of-the-art appliances, stylish and cozy furnishings, and carefully curated interior design, this camper van promises to redefine the notion of luxury on the road and reset the current pricing market. The attention to detail and the selection of premium materials rival the most expensive luxury campervans.
But it's not just about aesthetics! This van is all about practicality and functionality of our creation. From a fully-equipped kitchenette to a compact yet comfortable transforming sleeping area, I've thought of everything to ensure that this van is nothing short of extraordinary.
As I share my journey, I hope to inspire fellow adventure-seekers and DIY enthusiasts to pursue their dreams of van life, without taking out a mortgage in the process. With determination and ingenuity, turning an ordinary van into a mobile home should be within reach for everyone.

Young man, I am a 71 year old professional wood worker/ cabinet maker/ furniture maker/ builder. Not bragging, just giving background information. I am completely blown away…..but not just by your skill set, but by you! What an amazing and incredible build out. The creativity and ingenuity are second to none. The perseverance and commitment speak to your character. I love your temperament and thoroughly enjoyed you sharing your fuck up when you had to redo that kerfed plywood panel for the toilet. Not to take joy in your screw up, but to show those who don’t work with their hands the challenges faced in tactile work. You are most brilliant. Looking forward to more videos……loved your mock stealing of your sister’s couch. Best of travels.

I'm very impressed with the skills you have at such a young age. Besides that your work ethic at this age is highly admirable, so many young people do not have what you have going for them. I honestly believe you will go a very long way in your lifetime if you keep this up. Don't get discouraged or EVER give up, persistence pays off.

This bus requires rust removal, painting and anti-corrosion treatment. And he stuck everything on rust! We don't need such a motorhome. It will rot soon. 5:15 Terrible! He did not cover the sharp edges of the metal with anything and pushed the wires into the hole! Over time, they will wear out.

In my opinion your talent and willingness to share it is nothing short of a God send. I had been praying about endeavoring on this very type of project. Your video has given me insight and clarity on how to go about it. I've watched a copious amount of content on you tube but I never have been moved to subscribe to a channel until now. In conclusion, i offer my condolences to you and your family on the passing of your Father, I too am mourning the passing of my Father. My God bless you and keep you and I look forward to more content from you. Thank you again.

My heart goes out to you, losing a parent is so very very difficult. I applaud you for soldiering on with this video. Regarding the build and your videography -you-are-absolutely-amazing! 👏🏽👍🏽 I sold my Sprinter in April because once I got the insulation installed, I was completely overwhelmed. On the bright side, I did live in it full time and traveled for a year. If you had been around perhaps I would have tackled the rest. I’m certain that many people will benefit from your course. I totally agree with you the price of a build is outrageous! But with that said, quality craftsmanship carries a hefty price tag. There are a number of skills that one has to gain to build a van, and I had none. Although I no longer have a van, I’ve subscribed and will be giving you regular thumbs up. All the best to you.

Excellent work…. It was a pleasure watching your video. I stumbled up on your video today and watched it today on 4-22 which is my late brother’s birthday. He was able to do all the things you did in the video. It brought back so many memories of the work he did…. He graduated from a 4yr trade school named Washburn Trade School…. I wish you well and that you enjoy the fruits of your labor in your lovely van.

Dude, As a lifetime custom cabinet builder, NICE JOB! So sorry to hear about your father's passing, those events impact everyone, condolences to you and your family! Keep building!

I came across the video because of the title, and I found it truly inspiring. Despite not having the tools, I felt motivated to build a submarine. I think I can use the piece of wood I found behind Walmart. 2cans I found in a garbage can and your tutorial, and I'm winning! your skills are really impressive. Your music selection and editing are refreshing You have gained a new subscriber. I offer my deepest condolences for the loss of your father. Sending loeace of mind and prosperity to you and your family from me and my family here in Sacramento, California.

You master dovetailing, half lap joints, rail and stile work, edging plywood then laminating, all the way to upholstery. Just a wonderful job man. Yes, put together a step by step process video. I would support that. My condolences on your Father passing.

So impressed with your skills! So many young people today don't know how to build anything because their schools stopped teaching these things and their parents didn't teach them either. If you had a way of actually teaching the many different skills that went into building your van, so many people would benefit. I think you can tell from the response you are getting just how much interest there is. Beautiful work!

I am truly amazed, all I can say is wow, you are the bomb diggity (WOW). Yes, I am like blown away, like Chris (Amazing work). You need to be teaching this in a classroom and creating a business where the level of work and craftsmanship can be completed throughout the US (use the Vans as a Marketing ploy).

Best wishes to you and your family.

First off, deepest condolences to you and your family. Lost of a loved one is never easy. Towards the end of the video when you explained some finishing needs to be done etc, I could see how challenging it was for you to complete this build with all other family challenges going on. Thank you for completing this build, I’ve been following your content since almost day one when you were cutting wood and designing in your apartment in VA. You my friend have grown so much, your experience truly shows in your work. Take some well needed time for you and your family. We’re not going anywhere, when you decide to put a course or some kind of training together just let us(your followers) know. Wish you the best and continue to stay positive and grow. Vet to Vet, Salute my brother..💪🏽🙏🏽

I recently started looking into van life and seeing if it's possible for my dog and I. This is already a masterclass in using patience, enginuuty and some simple skills (also some not so simple) to use handywork so that you can actually afford to live on the road. This is awesome!

I know this video is a bit older now and you likely won't see this. But this is inspirational, genuinely. I am barely an adult, still worried about where my life is gonna go, but I did want to try and cheaply make a van myself to live in full time. I was thinking about doung exactly what you have done here, down to it being a used dually sprinter. You have given me some hope that I can manage to do this myself soon. I am probably gonna work in construction over the summer so I will be ablw to save up a lot, and that should get me able to get the money for some like this. Thank you for proving this is possible.

First, my prayers go out to you and your family. It’s hard to recuperate after the loss of a parent. Second, your skills are so incredible. What you did to this van proves YOU can build for under $10,000. Not everyone can do what you do! Please don’t sell yourself short. Good luck with whatever you’re able to do in the future with teaching/sharing your talents. I enjoy watching your videos.
