Great to see a video of someone building out an impreza. Excellent job, very sleek and a good use of space. I've got a '14 impreza hatchback and am looking to do something similar to your own. My constructive feedback is that I would have been really nice to have some dialogue explaining the process in more detail. Also curious how much a project like this costs.

That was a fun and organic project! The live edge and the figuring of the walnut are so perfect. A little education was my favorite part though!

Poor FJ it will need 2000LB springs to hold up all that wood. 3/4" plywood for the drawers too? Needed a forklift to put it in the car.lolol

Great build. Thanks for sharing. How easy/ difficult is it to get to the spare tyre?
@orvsr4me2 Жыл бұрын
The build was designed to not impede normal life. The platform would need to be removed to get to the spare but the whole thing weighs maybe 40 lbs (18 kg) total. Also, the passenger rear seat can be used if you simply fold the platform up into the cargo area.

Awesome filming and end result! I also named my wagon subrina ahaha. I had the back seats out for a bit for a camper conversion but need to do a version 2 as the first was heavy and clunky but it worked and had tons of sleeping/sitting space

@spencerlundcameraworks9491 Жыл бұрын
Hi there! It took about 40 working hours from start to finish, including brainstorming, design work, and the total construction. Replication of the current design would take half as long, most likely. I appreciate the interest!

Really beautiful and illuminating work ! I'm beginning my own FJ build-out now very inspired. - I'm curious: why the double wall between the two drawer compartments (as opposed to just a single wall) ? And, is the bottom a thinner material? I mean, is it 1/2" where all else in the platform/drawer insert (not including dividers) is 3/4"??
@orvsr4me22 жыл бұрын
Sorry for the delayed response. I don't check here very often anymore. The double wall was an evolutionary design, initially so I could install the two sides independently. I did away with this in the next version as it isn't necessary. I used 1/4 for the bottom of this one, 1/2 on the next version but will both had advantages depending on the pull out tables. 3/4 (18mm) used throughout the structure elsewhere.

thanks for sharing the video. Only comment I would have is some moderate post production.. increase color saturation a bit and include more time at places like the waterfall (that was awesome!) and the cool video going up the water..Nice views!
