This video explains a technic to build your own cabinets for your van conversion project. Those cabinets are transferable from a van to another identical van. They can be fixed to the van’s wall without modifying the van. Also the way they’re made avoid having any rattles.
The technic is good for any van’s sizes or any cabinet’s sizes.
Plus, this technic is inexpensive and uses common materials. You don’t need any expensive tools to do the cabinets. Mostly made with a jigsaw and a drill. It also presents and explains how to build your own tool to reproduce complex wall’s shape on the cabinets so that they fit perfectly.
You’ll save a lot of time and money by building such transferable cabinets. Someday, you’ll have to replace the van, but you won’t have to build other cabinets!
This video is part of a series that explain how to proceed to convert a van by doing it yourself (DIY).
It is also to encourage people to start their own do it youself (DIY) van conversion project the way they dream it!
Sorry for the accent, English is my second language.

Hello Eric, this is me again (after 1 year). You should sell these plans, I think your conversion is one of the cleverest in terms of optimal use of space, usability, and simplicity. Take care!

Oh my gosh! Thank you for all of your Van DIY videos. My boyfriend used so much of your advice that within a few weeks, we had a solar generator, a refrigerator, a fold up bed, cushions, reflectIX, solar panels and he even took the rear seats out of the back and BOOM! We were on our way from North Carolina to Colorado. If you come to Asheville, NC you have a place to stay and or stealth camp (warning: we have no surfing here).

Hi Eric. Great videos. After using your drawing tool, cut the template out to get the basic shape, then put the template in place and run a big fender washer up against the masking tape on the vans panels with the marker pen in the middle of the washer. The washer will roll against vans panel with the pen in the washers center transferring the vans shape to template for a more accurate cut.

Eric, your years of experience are very appreciated! I'm converting a minivan in about a year when I retire and have been looking at so many conversions. I really wasn't interested to make my own until I saw your videos. The premade DIY kits don't match what you have and I agree with your setup. I would like to ask how you set up the water and drain for the sink. I've seen some kits online, but again, not as nice as yours. So, if you have a chance to do that video I would love to see it! Thanks again, Ray

Two quick questions - and I apologize if these are already answered in other videos - 1: what type and thickness of wood / plywood did you use for your cabinets? 2: how do you attach the cabinets (and bed, etc) to the van without any modifications or damage to the van? Thanks... looking forward to more videos!

@@kevinriley5847 He attaches it with a screw hole or mount that is already installed in his van. Look like 1/2 inch plywood. He doesn't believe in heavy materials and it has to be easily removable...if it were more than 1/2 inch wood it would be too heavy for some. I think the front panel with cubby designations is 1/4 inch. and a different wood. YT makes everything look bigger...Look at the size of panels mounted for solar setup vs actual plywood in his cabinets vs cabinet fronts...

I've watched many videos on conversions and I do believe yours is the best I've seen so far! Extremely well thought out. Your selfmade tool to measure the contours of your van wall is pure genius! The only thing I will do differently is have my solar panel be able to slide out so that I can have a roof basket mounted over it. I do hope you do a video on how you attached the cabinets to the van.

Can you provide the height, length and depth of your cabinets. They seem bigger in your video. Did you use 3/8 inch plywood for the sides, shelves, top and bottom pieces? Would you recommend the use of 3/4 inch plywood for the face of the cabinets for strength?

Eric, I've been watching all of your videos. Thank you for posting them, they are very helpful. I have a 2015 Sienna as well and have started on the bed frame following your instructions. I am a woodworker so I have the tools necessary but simple is the way to go just sand all of the edges as you go. I know you are going to do a video about the kitchen cabinet and I can't wait for it. Thanks very much.

I am so glad I found your channel! I live in Japan, and because of the insurance laws and inspections, you CANNOT do anything permanent to the vehicle. But I want to make my mini-car into a small weekend camper, and your ideas are ones I think I can do. Thank you so much, and be safe on your happy travels!
