  • Welcome to a very small camper van, my channel all about my very small camper van - a minivan being transformed into a diy camper. #vanlife #minivancamper
    This video goes into detail about how my sliding bed base was made and how it works in the van.
    It is completely removable - no modifications to the van are needed - has space for storage and it converts to a couch for those rainy days when you want to sit inside the van.

    Most definately a genius idea for a double bed in a camper van! Or a rental room! WOW! Fabulous!

    Because there's always a man doing the heavy/technical work, congratulations to your husband.

    We recently purchased a 1990 Toyota Hiace Van which came from Japan. Our kitchen is oriented so it comes out from the back, under the hatch. We have been playing around with how to have an extending bed which hooks onto a box sitting behind the front seats. We were close to your design, but once we found your channel and saw this bed, we knew that it was exactly what would work and we were looking for. The stationary part in ours will be attached to a big storage box. The pull out part of the bed will go forward to a box behind the front seats. Because this distance is so long, we will have created the very bottom of the bed to be a piece hinged to the box that will raise up and be held by 500lb folding brackets. this will then hooke to the now middle piece with the angle iron channel and track like yours. We think it will work! Thanks for making these videos. You are very creative and handy! I wish I could come up with the solutions you have.

    Thanks for sharing. I've been trying to figure out how to do a pull out couch bed in my SUV and this is brilliant. I also love how you have the detachable light/usb charger. Brilliant.

    I agree with some of the others, out of all the bed conversation I've seen, I really love this this one the best, especially all the little touches you've added on.

    Great job. Clever design. I like how it locks in to the existing seat latch bracket.
