The PERFECT Camper Box (Berlingo, Caddy, Kangoo, Tourneo, Transit)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лип 2023
- I converted my Ford Tourneo Connect van into a micro camper. This DIY camping box has ample storage room and a pull out drawer with dedicated cooking area, so we are ready for road trips, weekend getaways, and simply live a bit of the van life.
The camper box also fits cars like the VW Caddy, Citeron Berlingo, Renault Kangoo, measuring 193 x 112 x 36 cm when it is folded out.

Ich habe meinen Ford Tourneo Connect Van in einen Mikro-Camper umgebaut. Diese DIY-Campingbox bietet viel Stauraum und eine ausziehbare Schublade mit eigener Kochzone, sodass wir bereit sind für Roadtrips, Wochenendausflüge und ein wenig Van-Leben zu erleben.
Die Camper-Box passt auch in Autos wie den VW Caddy, Citroën Berlingo, Renault Kangoo, wenn sie ausgeklappt ist.

Bellissima creazione!
Well done!
Well done! Congrats!!!❤
Super 🎉
Fantastic build my guy! I am looking for inspo to build this summer, and this is the bees knees! Especially liked the lid with the catch on top of the drawer :)
Great and simple! Well done. Thx for sharing. Have a great journey time :)
Emeğinize sağlık. Mükemmel iş çıkardınız. Pratik ve kullanışlı.
TÜRKİYE'den Selamlar 🇹🇷
Great idea, great work. I like it. Well done mate😊👍
The one thing wrong with a great many of these conversions is they don't have anywhere to sit when the bed is made, a space to put your legs over the side to get dressed/undressed or have a piss in the middle of the night?
I did see a very clever micro van conversion in Japan where a section of the bed was removable creating a footwell so the guy could cook wash dress eat etc in relative comfort, not have to do everything on your knees!
There are some that make them were you can sit upright in them, and also lay it flat down. they have a table in the middle. Check out "man on the outside" he made one were you sit in it
I built a very similar box except I split the bed portion into 2 seperate foldout sections. I can remove both seats or just one depending on whether I need a double or single bed.
Bravo, very nice job!
Thanks ist a very good work.big like for it..❤❤❤
Thanks so much :)
Great job dude 😊 well done 👍
Amazing
You did a great job, I'll copy your idea. Greetings from Brazil
Well done, great job ! Im watching this with my dog and he thinks these giant bone shapes are delicious 👍🏾
Haha! I thought the same thing when I cut it out!
Well... That it looked like a bone. The flavor I'll leave to your dog to decide 😂.
Well done! 😉
Well, right back at you! Thanks for the inspiration! :)
just wanted to tag you, since this is plagiarism what he did.. :(
nice job bro
Thanks!
Thanks to GVM-Corner 💯
Nice tut thks
Hey can I ask what the far end of the platform is supported by when it is folded out for the bed? I assume the chairs are down or removed but is there just empty space under where your head rests or does that board/panel sit on something? Thanks.
I like to think of it as having three parts, all with separate support systems. The first part, closest to the rear door, is supported by the box itself. The second part (which in a future build I'd have the joint resting on the box as well), is supported by the seats. I also throw a long rectangular piece under the joint between the 2nd and 3rd part, so that it rests evenly and distributes the weight a bit better on the seating backs. The third part is then held up by very thin climbing cord, you can go with 3 or 4mm thick. Simply thread it through the last slat and go under and around so the cord isn't pulling from underneath your mattress, then you can tie it off either in the seat-belt pillar loop / anchor ring, or directly on the metal posts from the front-seat head rests. If you know your way around knots, you can make a sliding one that then allows you to easily adjust the angle of this piece too. Good luck!
Looks fantastic very well done, what size screws did you use for the wood and also the piano hinges please
I bought long piano hinges 20mm width, I believe the screws were 3.5cm long. Regarding the hinges, if I'd do it again, I might go for some more heavy duty hinges and inset them. The long & thin piano hinges are quite flimsy and really require all the screws to hold it there.
Great piece of work, considering doing the same thing, what do you guys do for ventilation at night.
We have rear windows which kip open slightly, and if it's really cold I'll usually just unlock them and that leaves a small slot that does the trick.

That's what I thought, sorry not for me, I would not feel comfortable sleeping in an unlocked car.
enjoy.
Good Job ! Can you share the plan or the dimesions plz?🙏🙏
Hey there! I added a subtitle track with my comments, including some dimensions, I hope that can help you!
Plans are now available for 10 euros minus any membership fees to my channel. :)
Amazing work! May I ask what is that piece (min. 6:50) between the first two blocks of the upper part for? Is it to load the weight better? Why don't you join the two big blocks directly? Maybe it's a stupid question but I'm new to these things 😊
If you look at the fold-out (07:13), that small piece allows the sections to stack on top of one another and then fold out into one flat piece. The folding out section 3, we could call it, is sitting on section 1. The added small piece gives the depth so that the pieces are still flat. Hope that makes sense. Just watch the video clip a few times and I think you'll see what I mean. :)
Suuuure, now I got it 😅 I thought it was something to make it more 'functional' but it actually is for the sizes! One more thing, may I ask you if the hinges to join the openable pieces are specific ones? Can I buy them online? Or are they commons? Thanks!!
Nice camperbox! What kind of wood did you use?
It's all beech wood! 15mm for the frame and bed, 12mm for the box and face.
hallo. kannst du mir bitte den plan von campingbox senden. vielen dank 🙏
Do you think I could make one for my C3 picasso,? Only marginally smaller than a berlingo..I'm not bothered about the headroom as im short.
Hey! Totally! Just make each section a bit more narrow and the concept will certainly transfer over.
❤❤❤
good job! what is the thickness of the board?
Mostly 18mm, with 15mm in some spots! If you put the subtiltes on, I actually write all the dimensions of the boards and other little things to watch out for.
Indeed, very useful to add such info in the subtitles. This is a great build, enjoyed watching. Have fun and be safe out there 🫡👍 @@ericinthewild
Amazing! Can you share your plans with me? I want to make something similar, would be great to see your dimensions! Cheers!
Hey there! Please see the description for info how to get the plans! :)
Otherwise, I've also put the dimensions in the subtitles!
wirklich toll! kennen sie den typ aus GVM-Corner?
Dachte ich auch beim schauen.Eins zu Eins ! Hab mir den Bauplan mit bemaßen von ihm gekauft.
Ja!
I bought the plan for 10 euros, will update to this comment if he sent it to me!
he sent it to me highly recommend!
I don t find it in the description..😮..U can put the link here?
Toll gemacht! Super genial! Verkaufst du die Pläne?
Hallo Rainer, herzlichen Dank und ja! Es wären 10 Euro abzüglich der Mitgliedsbeiträge (falls Mitglied meines Kanals). Bei Interesse einfach Bescheid geben oder privat melden. Viel Erfolg beim Bauen!
Do you find the split mattress uncomfortable ?
Not at all, it is very comfortable! We put a soft mattress cover/protector type thing on top of the mattress, and then the sheet. Bamboo sheets...also recommended :).
👍
What does it weigh without any thing in it?
I haven't weighed it -- but I can carry it by myself if needed, with two people it's very comfortable to move around.

Can anyone explain how i can pay for the plans? I see a paypal, however also something about membership, though can't see anything more about how to get a membership
Hey there! Just write your email in the paypal comment, and "camper box plans". Then I can send them to you directly, or even give the link over paypal chat. The membership is just kind of like a Patreon through UA-cam, some people choose to support creators this way. You can find that if you subscribe and then click "join" on my profile, you'll see some options with perks etc. For those who are members, they can essentially deduct the membership fee from the price of the plans. Hope that helps!
Box ready at 8:16
0:02 un chat?!...it's a cat?!
Шурупы в торец фанеры это нормально?
No, but necessary for the way this is built. If you predrill the holes you will be more successful. Alternatively, use a different hinge mechanism. If I built it again, I would inlay different hinges... Because you're right, this is the weakest part of the build.
"Beach wood" no beach plywood. And that is not a "jig" that would be a "fence"...
Did you copy this plan?
ua-cam.com/video/SqtSZzeh-Wk/v-deo.html
I built this three years ago from plans I found at GVM Corner.
Yes, a slight modification of that. The original is credited within the description, and has been since the beginning. You can also find GVM Corner even commenting on this video. ;) ... Not only that, but I also arranged with him to give a percentage from any of the modified plans I sell.
You want to talk about light, look at tiny camper video, he makes things out of Cardboard for heaven sakes (and cheaply too-left over cardboard is easier to find than leftover wood!!! This video is too much on build and not showcasing assets of box.
You want lightweight think about foam board wrapped in fiberglass for the ultimate inexpensive sturdy diy lightweight furniture, trailers, truck campers or whatever else you can think of. The process to look for is FOAMIE
9mins to show the build no video of how it actually functions.
Ok, so far $1000 worth of tools, maybe $2000…and then extreme set of skills……ah, NO!
?did you have a template for this or make on the fly? is it possible to share the dimensions/pans
Hey there! I added a subtitle track "English - Comments and Dimensions" ... I hope that can help you!
A good designer need Indian and Chinese to get scaled up
Later on a business
Amazing
