Should call it "Nigel Vanson"
It will be the only thing named 'Nigel' this year in the UK - name is dying out... sad... ha ha
He looks nothing like him ???
@@NigelDanson You should call it ViewfiNDer. You will use this handsome van to find beautiful views and your initiales will be part of the name... And it is a term related to photography.
Nigel Vansion. Because it's a van-mansion.
Wow! That is a big van!! Can’t wait to watch this series!
If you’re having a bad day. Watch one of Nigel’s video. So much happiness in this gent, it’s contagious !! Thanks for sharing Nigel. Amazing project you’ve completed there
It was fun to see this in person and getting even more BTS ;) But one thing is for sure, it's definitely not luck that you got that workshop done, you busted your butt off for that!
Looking forward to you visiting me in Denmark once it's done :D
Thanks Mads
You could call it Bamm-Bamm.
Love seeing you so happy, Nigel. Thanks for sharing.
Judging by the work you have done to create your workshop you will have no issues converting your van. I have a van the same size and the freedom it gives us to just go and stay where you want to photograph is great, self sufficient for days is a bonus. Good luck with your project Nigel
It’s great to see you so excited Nigel!
I love everything about this. Love seeing you inspired and happy! Also, woodworking and photography are all I watch on UA-cam. Seeing it all rolled into one makes me very happy!
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow love the workshop, looking forward to the the van build series. Your videos always lift my spirits with your enthusiasm, thank you Nigel.
Nigel...this is simply awesome - especially the rooftop deck! Sure beats the tallest of tripods for that added EXTRA height advantage. Your excitement for this project is infectious. Thanks for letting us tag along!
I'm smiling now for how happy you are to get this started! Definitely love hearing about how you make the shop to make the parts that make the van. Hats off to you good Sir!
Epic project mate! We're nearly done with our van, same size and height but 4x4 and I can really feel the squeeze on the headroom... not sure if im gonna regret it haha!
How wonderful for you, Nigel! It does my heart good to see you so happy and looking forward with excitement.
I'm sure you've already thought about this, but in case you haven't, be sure to include hidden lockable storage, as well as a safe for storing your camera gear.
Also, a slide out or storage location specifically for tripod(s).
Nigel! I have been looking forward to this video. You can tell you're really excited and really happy about it. It is going to look amazing! I can't wait to follow you on this journey. Thank you so much for stepping out of your comfort zone and doing these types of videos as well. Fantastic work as always!
Great start to the van series. Looking forward to seeing it through. Good to see you happy.
What a machine 💪 Great to see you so excited about the project. I'm sure it'll be amazing once finished. Also the new workshop looks amazingly stacked with fun tools that'll make the process a joy!
More than happy to hit pause on the photography content for a couple of weeks to see how this project develops 👍
All the best from Germany
You're right; a BIG van! Looking forward to future videos showing van construction and on the road. Looks like a great idea and I loved the Ansel Adams comments. I've seen online photos showing Ansel on his station wagon's roof.
Hey Nigel, what a pleasure to watch, you are rightly enthusiastic about your workshop and your beautiful campervan you have thought out the lay-out and implementation very well it looks great, can’t wait to follow the entire process, thank you for already giving us a sneak preview.
Looking forward to watching this build. Nice design!
Thanks for sharing Nigel, can't wait to see the rest of the series.
Very excited for you ! The 3D model is beautiful! Impatiently waiting for the transformation and the special features ! Enjoy !
I already love it!
Looks like a very exciting project. Looking forward to following its progress.
Wow. What a lot of hidden talents; 3D printing, woodwork, interior design etc. Well, maybe not so hidden now 😅 Really looking forward to this series. Love the fact its going the opposite way to Thomas Heaton's tiny 1 person photo van.
I'm looking forward to this series as much as I do your photography adventures. Good luck with it all Nigel
What an exciting project Nigel, your vision looks incredible. I am a fellow van lifer as well, so very much look forward to following your build, and the adventures yiu have in the future. Just one tip, ensure you can get through the window between the bulkhead and the cab, in case you're ever in a situation where you need to leave a particular location quickly and it's not safe to have to open your doors and get out of the habitation area into the cab. Good luck with everything.
Yep. I am going to change this I think and have a sliding door
I´m happy for you Nigel!
This is fab Nigel. So looking forward to seeing it take shape. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Can't wait!
I am so excited about this new chapter in your videos! Can’t wait to see the whole series, the end result AND you putting to use!
Looking forward to the build ! 🤩
Looking forward to seeing your vision coming to life Nigel in the build out videos. I’m sure you will end up with an amazing campervan when all the work is done
Sounds epic, Nigel - looking forward to seeing it all come together :)
Hi Nigel ! Cool idea !!! Good luck !!!
I'm so excited for this. Can't wait to see it finished 😊
Wow! What an exciting project! Nice job on the shop. The 3D models look amazing. You’ve obviously planned extensively. Excited to watch it all come together!
Exciting times ahead! Look forward to seeing your build!
Looks like a cool project! Can't wait to see more!
So excited to watch you build out the van!
Looking forward to watching this conversion. Glad to see your inspiration! Thanks Nigel…. Looking forward to your new adventures that will allow you to get back out and start snapping some pictures! All the best…
Awesome! I’m looking forward to the series. I built my 4x4 sprinter a few years ago and the adventures we’ve had since are priceless.
Good luck with the build Nigel. Can't wait to see how you get on.
Looking forward to it. Love the design. One of the best I have ever seen.
Sweet ride Nigel!
Love it! Can't wait to see more 🤩
Looking forward to watching the buildout. The design looks like what I’ve been imagining in my head.
Wow, your camper van build is awesome Nigel. Yes, you are lucky to be in a position to do this, but you've worked hard to achieve your dreams. Enjoy every moment of this new journey/adventure. Can't wait to see each video as you progress to finality. We've just bought a camp trailer to allow us more freedom exploring my country to enable me to take more photographs. As we take it out on small journeys we find out what we need & what we don't, then we can do a big trip. Exciting times. 😀
This will be FUN to watch!!
BLOODY AWESOME!!!! 🤩
You seem so excited.....its great...good for you. I cant wait to see the van when its finished!
Look forward to it.
Cheers Nigel! This is going to be exciting! Looking forward to it as it unfolds!👍
Looks as though it’s going to be incredible. Good luck to you Nigel - can’t wait to see the finished article
Great changing it up new direction new content wonderful
Looking forward to following your journey. Let's go Giants!
Looking forward to this project!
Exciting times, I'm looking forward to the series. I built mine with photography in mind.
Like many I expect ... I'm hooked; thank you!
Great video Nigel! Can definitely feel your passion for this build. I'm stoked to see more of your new content where you took the “reigns” off. 🙏🏼
Great series Nigel - look forward to seeing the conversion bit by bit!
This project looks so exciting and inspiring. Can't wait to see it to unfold.
Lovely to see the enthusiasm.
Super excited for this series! As it matches my interests perfectly well 😁 looking forward for the next episode! 🙌
Fantastic stuff Nigel, what a project! Now subscribed & will follow the progress with enthusiasm 👏👏👏
Should be a great build project Nigel.
Looking forward to seeing it through.
Looks fantastic, can't wait to see the finished product
Wow. That is going to be so cool. Can’t wait to see the finished product. 👌🏻
Aweseome project!
I think I would have a daughter drool over your handy work in the shed! Nice work Nigel. The excitement in you for the project is great to see.
Incroyable !!!!
Good luck, really looking forward to seeing the build
What an exciting project. The 3d video of it looks amazing. Can't wait to see it when its finished
Simply love these type of videos. My father was a carpenter too and much of that I learned from him I have used in all the houses I lived inn.
Amazing Nigel! 👍🏼
Love your comment on the pacemaker & induction hob - I hope you don't manage to power yourself down!
Looks fantastic Nigel looking forward to the build 😊
I'm very envious and also full of admiration. Best of luck Nigel, but by the look of your workshop and by the sound of your enthusiasm, you won't need it. Looking forward to eventually seeing the finished product, but probably not as much as you're looking forward to using it.
Really looking forward to this build Nigel good luck.
Love the design!
I’ve been looking forward so much to your build videos.
Brilliant mate. Nice n tight getting into the Drive.
Workshop is mega.
Design looks great.
Looking forward to see it progress.
Looking fwd to next videos
So.... Super Glad for you.... enjoy....
Thanks for showing your workshop and your campervan. Very cool design!
Great intro Nigel. I've been anxiously waiting for you to start this series because I know you will do it right vs some of the shoemaker conversions that I've seen done. Cheers
Wow, what a vision you have for your van conversion. It's going to look amazing. So much space.
Exciting times Nigel. Good luck with the build. I am looking forward to the campervan build, the electrics and the photography specials being revealed!
Looks like a great project leading to even better adventures ahead - congrats!
Nice to see you so happy Nigel, you will enjoy it a lot once you are ready for the first trip. Good luck with your fit out. Greetings from Germany Michael
Nice plan for the van loving the idea of a foldable roof deck. Where you have the front table and seat if you took the cabin divide away completely you could have couple of swivel seats and also easy access to the drivers seat if you need to move off without going outside. Looking forward to the next episode if your workshop is anything to compare to the van is going to look a beauty.
Very exciting. I look forward to your van build videos.
Wow, its going to be a bit special ❤❤❤
Oh mate. Yeah this looks great! Can’t wait to see it all unfold. You are obviously such a clever guy… what with the obvious photo and video skills and now joinery, CAD and engineering etc. Good on you Nigel. Exciting times.
Looking forward to watching your camper van come to life !
looks epic Nigel! will follow along avidly!
The new van looks like quite a project. Looking forward to seeing your progress.
Good luck with the build. Design looks great. Will be watching with interest.
Great beginnings!
Good luck Nigel, I converted a crafter like yours as a lockdown project. Hard work but once your done it is such a satisfying thing to do. Plans look great!!
I am following you couple of years because of landscape photography.I love your enthusiasm and big ambitious soul. Great you stepped out of your niche and share your story . I like it ! I am bussy with camper conversion too...
