Out of the hundreds of videos I've watched of van builds this is the only one that is literal perfection. I'll be watching this video at least a thousand times while working on my own lol.
There is no way you could buy a conversion built by ANY manufacturer to compare with this. I am picking up my new Sprinter 4x4 tomorrow, and am going go do a conversion. Your video has convinced me NOT to do it, but rather to just keep mine simple. I could never imagine producing something as awesome as yours. And then to have your family together doing it...insanely admirable to say the least. It is not the quality of the van built, it is the quality of the family you are building.
This guy has to be a Master Carpenter. 95% of people could not do this conversion to the quality he has the ability to perform. AND mucho respect for Mom with her baby on her back whiel still contributing tons to this build.
Notice how none of these videos are ever from a poor person trying to build something to actually survive in because rent is too high and they can't afford a home or anything else anymore.
Wow! 6 months in 30 minutes. Impressive. and it looks very functional and cozy. I like how you built the shower away from the bed and hid the toilet so it can be accessed from the shower. It looks fabulous! nice work. I wish you wonderful adventures in 2024! Bob
@@TimKatie My pleasure. I'm thinking of getting a Transit in 3 years when I retire although I don't have "any" skills in building I may usr some of your ideas if that's okay with you.
We had a Ford Transit camper -UK version- many years ago(about 1975) with a dining set/convertible to double bed, over-the-cab-bed for our boys & a cupboard with toilet, and of course a kitchen - about 5ft of cupboards with sink. It had none of the special built in electrics & plumbing of your beautiful version, but to be honest we seemed to have all we needed for our generally 3 or 4 day stays in the mountains/empty beach spot in North Wales. We parked the camper right above the long empty beach ! A wonderful way to go on vacation IMO ! Enjoy your gorgeous creation, it is one of a kind. I particularly loved your shower/toilet arrangement - there is nothing quite so wonderful as enjoying the countryside or seaside with your own home & conveniences right there as you travel !
Шановні Tim та Каtie, дуже дякую вам за можливість побачити вашу чудову роботу. Мене звати Діма і я з України. Я з дружиною мрію теж власноруч збудувати власний автодім і коли в Україні закінчиться війна подорожувати сівтом. Ми в захваті від того як якісно ви виконуєте всі роботи по переобладнанню фургона в комфортний будинок, і це надихає нас мріяти про те, що колись ми зможемо також зробити власний автодім. Бажаємо вам міцного здоров'я і натхнення зробити ще дуже багато цікавих проектів. А ми з нетерпінням будемо чекати нових відео від вас. Ви дуже круті!) Дякую
Дякуємо за коментар! Ми думаємо про вас і вашу країну в цей важкий час. Сподіваємось, ви незабаром зможете побудувати свій будинок на колесах! Sorry if this is a poor translation-- I used google translate
@@TimKatie Дякуємо за підтримку) Переклад чудовий) Ми щиро сподіваємось, що війна скоро закінчиться і ми зможемо втілити наші мрії. Вже по трохи фантазуємо на якій базі буде наш автодім, поки схиляємось до Citroën Jumper L3H3(4)
Thank you very much for sharing this incredible build video. Obviously building a van is a ton of work. Documenting/videoing/editing the process adds to the workload. Your efforts are appreciated.
This was fuking amazing to see two highly intelligent people a baby, a dog do what they did. I truly enjoyed this build, God bless y'all, this is my favorite all time, I got to get one🙏🏾
Your determination and adherence to your vision is phenomenal and admirable. I would have given up after a day and just thrown a mattress on the floor and called it a day. 😂
Not just a great build but great production. Much respect to you guys. You guys are killing it, all three. Even the Lad from the small pool LOL! I had kids at your age and I applaud you guys for killing it on this transit.
This, by far, was the best camper build I've ever seen. Smart placement of interior, exterior, roof top solar, and electrical and plumbing equipment. You, guys made this amazing. Oh, how I wish you could do a build for me. Great job, guys. And your wee one was adorable too 😊
I class myself as a really good carpenter and still think I couldn’t come close to the skills you two have shown in this video,absolutely amazing work and fantastic use of space,phenomenal guys brilliant work ❤
Congratulations, it looks beautiful. One question, how many liters of "drinking" water and "gray" water? I'm from Brazil, excuse my English... Would it be possible to know the meaning of this montage? Thanks!
Guys amazing skills and dedication. Props to Katie by all means for supporting the project while taking care of a newborn. Finished my own project like 2 years ago and been digital nomading across Europe. Don't know your location and regulations but I'm 40kg under 3.5T on our best days with a way lighter build. Wish you all the best and hope you chose a powerful engine , a cold climate or flat terrain. Brake and suspension upgrade is a good idea on what to me appears to be a rather heavy build. I just want to help from my own experience.
That was a beautiful job. I really like the layout too, it's an excellent use of the space. All those solar panels mean it should be off grid. Just the thing you'll need for the zombie apocalypse. 😊
Christ allmighty how good are you guys😯that is what you call professional geniuses at work!!! I'm blown away😯 talk about home from home that is exactly what I want for my fishing sessions😊🎣 God bless Dan
Chers Katie et Tim, Merci pour cette vidéo qui nous permet d‘admirer les magnifiques transformations réalisées sur votre Transit:votre travail très soigné mérite tous les éloges .Bravo !Amitiés de France .Michel
I think you guys did better than a professional place like a shop could do. Your places is amazing now out of curiosity. Where have you all driven to by now? Since it’s all done? Where have you camped? You should now put the places you guys visit on your website I love what you guys did by the way very cool thanks fortracking every step for us I loved watching the video
I am not knocking this at all because I think it looks totally mint and professional standard throughout, but oh to have that space and set up is just perfect and I'm very envious of that, cracking build.
Hello Thank you for sharing your build . Looks great! Can you please share with me the link where did you get the gray water tank?! I would appreciate it greatly 😇✨🙏
Unfortunately I haven't got deep pockets like you must of had to build this .. love the use of space with the toilet that's just genius 👏👏 dream camper right there
Best wishes from Germany, Berlin. I came across this video by chance. Perfectly done work. I like it a lot. I hope you enjoy it. As I don't speak or write English, I used the translator, I hope it translated it well. In Germany we say to someone who has done something so nice with their car Have a safe journey Best wishes from Germany, Berlin Achim Schmidt
Of all the video's I have seen, this is by far the one that is closest to what I would want. There is one big thing for me, personally, that doesn't make sense for you, and 2 opinion things that I could be swayed that yours is better. I would want a permanent desk instead of a dining nook. The optional is a easy raise / lower bed. But with how you made it, I am uncertain if that is better or worse compared to your fixed position. The other opinion is leaving the rear windows open, vs closing them off and insulating them. On the one hand privacy and better climate control. On the other more natural light. Regardless, this was effing phenomenal. You didn't do that stupid thing people do and call it ultimate...cuz lets be honest, literally none of them are ultimate. Every build is a compromise for space, functionality, weight, and often cost. And...and this is my favorite, you didn't talk. You let the work speak for itself. I wish I could subscribe twice.
Yep - very cool - love the way you house the loo out of sight and can slide it out into the shower. What was the waterproof door you used to seal the loo in?
I'm SO impressed. Really inspiring build. I'm working on a solo transit conversion right now and can respect the planning and effort that went into this -- especially all of the stuff off camera. Well done you guys & thanks for sharing :)
Out of the hundreds of videos I've watched of van builds this is the only one that is literal perfection. I'll be watching this video at least a thousand times while working on my own lol.
Thank you! All the best with your build!
I agree 100%....what an amazing built.
That pull out toilet, and the use of the space underneath the permanently mounted bed is next level genius.
Thank you! 🙏🏻
I agree
There is no way you could buy a conversion built by ANY manufacturer to compare with this. I am picking up my new Sprinter 4x4 tomorrow, and am going go do a conversion.

This guy has to be a Master Carpenter. 95% of people could not do this conversion to the quality he has the ability to perform. AND mucho respect for Mom with her baby on her back whiel still contributing tons to this build.
He's got like 20 different drills lol
Well, he had a dog to help.
Notice how none of these videos are ever from a poor person trying to build something to actually survive in because rent is too high and they can't afford a home or anything else anymore.
@CheapSushi probably because they have bigger worries than making a cute "how to" video to share with the world 🤷♂️
did see the garage with all the tools :D
Amazing, a pro build with a workshop of dreams. Completely unachievable for a middle aged amateur like me but amazing to watch.
One of the best built by couples of the hundreds I've seen. 👌👍😉
Thank you!
Doing all that work even with bub strapped to the front of you, way to go Mama! What an icon!!
This is the cleanest and tidiest garage I’ve ever seen. I believe that gave you the marvelous result.
I had NO idea so much work was involved. You did a beautiful job and I loved that the baby was involved in the build!!
Wow! 6 months in 30 minutes. Impressive. and it looks very functional and cozy. I like how you built the shower away from the bed and hid the toilet so it can be accessed from the shower. It looks fabulous! nice work. I wish you wonderful adventures in 2024! Bob

I really love what you guys did with your bump outs. I didn’t add flares but copied the bed frame and I really appreciate y’all documenting it🙏
We're so glad you loved the design enough to incorporate into your van. Thanks for following along :)
OMG, you guys are MASTER DESIGNER, CARPENTER..... what an awesome job. We'll done. Great team too.
Every inch has been utilised perfectly, wonderful brother.
Best wishes from India.

Woohoo! for that workspace. Quite different from the first. Glad for you guys - you deserve it!
Thank you!! 😊
Look so good 😮😮😮😮 and for 6months they finished it wow.. salute to the mother she take care of the baby and help her husband :) ❤
I class myself as a really good carpenter and still think I couldn’t come close to the skills you two have shown in this video,absolutely amazing work and fantastic use of space,phenomenal guys brilliant work ❤
I like the fact that Katie was highly involved. Great Job to you both.
i cant believe i watch this from start to finish :) Good job
very cool. do you know how much weight this build added to the van? a rough estimate is fine. beautiful finish!
Whenever I want a camper van built, I'll make sure to hire them to do it. I'll expect it done in no time. LOL
That pullout toilet is a stroke of genius. So simple, but so right.
The extra room for head & feet is very clever too.
انت بحق رائعيين .. هذا العمل لا يفعله اي مصنع في هذا الكون .... من العراق ❤❤❤❤
Congratulations, it looks beautiful. One question, how many liters of "drinking" water and "gray" water? I'm from Brazil, excuse my English... Would it be possible to know the meaning of this montage? Thanks!
WOW! what a gorgeous build.
Knowledge and awesome DIY skills in every aspect of the project... respect! Congrats of the great final result!
Wow
Just WOW
I’m thoroughly impressed with your work and attention to Every detail 🕵🏻♂️
Can’t wait to see you guys putting it to use
Thank you!
This has to be the best quality build I have seen. Brilliant
Thank you!
Love those baby-on-board shots. First time I saw what a van conversion all requires - thanks!
Awesome! Exactly what we were planning for our DIY reno!
Top Build 👌
Just would like to know if there is anything from DeWalt that you dont have?
This has to be one of the most satisfying videos I have ever watched. Great job guys!
Well built guys! Stay safe through your journeys……
Just fabulous work. Perfection all thru. The far best video of conversion out here. I do not think anyone can top this one....Cheers!
Guys amazing skills and dedication. Props to Katie by all means for supporting the project while taking care of a newborn.

You need to see The Headrest Safe!! Grand design is putting that safe in every Sprinter van.Well made and can hide a lot in plain sight!!
That was a beautiful job. I really like the layout too, it's an excellent use of the space.
All those solar panels mean it should be off grid. Just the thing you'll need for the zombie apocalypse. 😊
imagine keeping this in colinfurze’s underground bunker/garage, then drive it from there to jerryrigeverything’s bunker
Great to see a family working together on such an impressive build.
Christ allmighty how good are you guys😯that is what you call professional geniuses at work!!! I'm blown away😯 talk about home from home that is exactly what I want for my fishing sessions😊🎣 God bless Dan
I'm dizzy. Most people have no idea what goes into a van build! Impressive job, you guys!
This guy is a carpenter, painter, electrician, designer, all in one, really incredible if you can do all that
This video was awesome for real respect to u and your wife on this really cool build. Enjoyed watching this 🤜🤛
I wouldn't believed it till I saw it, Outstanding work!! Beyond jealous
One of the nicest builds I've seen so far, and I've watched quite a few. Great use of space on the outside too.
Well done guys and baby.
Never seen such dedication in a project in my life. My compliments. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow that’s hands down best build I’ve seen well done I’d love to do one myself it’s incredible work

the build is cool and all, but baby in the swimming pool is top tier! great work
The motorhome assembly was perfect and very organized, congrats for this video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Very sophisticated build. Nice work! And I like the idea that the toilet is as much away from the bed very much. I'll keep that in mind... ;-)
I think you guys did better than a professional place like a shop could do. Your places is amazing now out of curiosity. Where have you all driven to by now? Since it’s all done? Where have you camped? You should now put the places you guys visit on your website I love what you guys did by the way very cool thanks fortracking every step for us I loved watching the video
I doubt there is one better in the U.S. That's amazing.
Merci de votre partage
Super travail, très soigné et bien réfléchi.
Bonne continuation
