If I had 1/3 of his talent I’d at least give this a try. My dad had enough talent to build his own campers. 1 time he didn’t have enough wood so he used cardboard! Unfortunately we went through a place where it flooded and we had a couple of leaks but overall it was a great experience for a young girl, my age. We lost our dad this year at the age of 93.
Breath taking!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 The skill & talent this guy has is off the charts! The backpack & overnight bag stole my heart😍😍. Cassie is a fantastic interviewer. Her voice is so calm & soothing. She could do voiceover work👌🏽 Thanks,Bob!😊❤️
Just wonderful! So much fun stepping back 50 years. Have camped for decades and enjoy meeting the people who also camp, there are SO many characters out there and even more great stories! I am a runaway, at the campground at least from the time I could walk I would volunteer to take the trash or whatever just so I could look at other 'setups' and meet new people! One of the Gypsy campers I met while one of my walks later showed up near Big Stone Gap WV only to find out that she and my great Aunt Alice were friends. I love the maps and Modge Pog in my opinion is one of the best covering for maps. I love the attention to details. Thanks for sharing. We are all under the same sky!
Oh wow, I absolutely love this! Now I just need it to have a motor and cab so it doesn't have to be pulled! At 75 hookups have gotten too complicated for me. I must be part gypsy. George Crawford, you are gifted!
George, I have not read all the comments so someone may have pointed this out already. The protectors over the locking mechanisms (anti-pry bar) are good, but the hinge pins can be popped off in seconds by an intruder, thus allowing your door to come off easily.
I do appreciate the older, low tech ways. In fact, to me what's daunting in designing my THOW is balancing NOT having too much modern conveniences, which can easily break down and cost me in the long run. The most priceless things I've learned about in the past 10 years--having been longterm unemployed at one point and things breaking down in my house and doing without until I could afford to fix or replace them--is that I CAN do without them, and still be comfortable. I'm glad I went through that as it's helped me become more minimalist minded and will make my THOW design much easier, and less expensive, to build. Wonderful video! Keep up the great work and information: it's invaluable! 😊
Thank you for sharing this... I think I have seen this Wagon in So Cal. I love the idea of using a tool chest for your drawers, and you can often find these at Estate Sales and garage sales. Very ingenious!
Years ago while traveling south between Aurora and Rising Sun Indiana we saw a red gypsy wagon camped along the Ohio River. Thought they had a white horse to pull it with but turned out to be a white mule. It was really a nice setup. My estimated date of seeing this was around 2001. We were pressed for time and didn't stop to chat. Wish we had.
Loved this wagon and the clever craftsman George is a treasure! What talent there is in peoples hands to make such great homes with so much love and passion. Awe inspiring! Thanks for sharing🌈👏👍
THANK YOU! This is wonderful information about WinterCount, George Crawford, and his information. I've looked at WinterCount website as well as Geoprge Crawford's website. Thanks you so much for going to the festival! Stay safe and well!
I love this type of Gypsy/Bardo wagon style with some camping gear that’s newer style camping stove and the old victorian style hinges etc. in the horseshoe hanging on the wall as well as many other beautiful old style lamps etc. I can appreciate his fine wood working skills and teaching those skills to other people who want to learn how to make their own projects. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home on wheels!👍
Gorgeous vardo. Thank you George for allowing us to peek in. Although it's longer than usual, I really like what extending the vardo by a few feet does to functional space within. I'm researching sheep camps and vardos, trying to figure out what kind I'd maybe attempt to construct myself something in my pursuit of peace and quiet for my creative pursuits to park by the farm pond. Our property was a sheep ranch before we bought it. When I rolled in with a uhaul in tow 3 years ago, there was a large flock of sheep here. A few houses before the turn-in to our place, there's a little sheep wagon sitting in someone's front yard. This is definitely a place these wagons look right at home. Call me a good old fashioned nutter, but I'd be happy to be able to swap between a truck hitch and a horse hitch on mine. Do I need a horse team? No. Does it overlap with other hobbies, it does! A little sidenote, the "old Russian coffee pot" at 11:10 is a classic *samovar*, a Russian tea kettle! The old ones have a chimney stack built into them to put hot coals in that boiled the water inside the circular outer jacket. Tea was made strong in a small tea pot, and the little kettle was used almost as a tea concentrate, topped off with more hot water from the tap. Many but not all samovars have a spot at the top of the chimney stack to keep the little kettle hot until serving. They're a fun gadget if you can find them while antique hunting.
I absolutely loved this interview. George is an amazing at his crafts. I never knew about this group. Very interesting. Thank you so much! Now I want to know more. Excellent job.👏👏👏
I Totally, appreciate the locking tool box as when I brought my dad's here, it was too nice to leave in the barn so I have in the house, great place to secure items.
Great video ! Beautiful work and design. KC you are so talented with your work on these presentations, but today I realized what a great voice you have. You really should do more of these.
I love it! For most of the same reasons my HW PUP camper is loved by me. 2024 I will start incorporating aesthetics of a Vardo/Gypsi wagon to make me happy. Thanks for sharing the video!
This is so beautiful! I love there old English Gypsy wagons. This guy is so skillful and talented to be doing all these different kinds of handcrafted works of art. What a great video! Thanks for sharing it with us.
It took an archaeologist to bring all of those magnificent details into a space such as a gypsy wagon. I've seen a number of gypsy wagons but none compare to George's!
When I was a kid. we had a guy that would come buy and live on the farm for awhile. his had iorn wheels and and pulled buy a pair of black mules. always made me dream of living that kind of life. never did do it , but this brought back of a lot of memories. he had his was stand on the out side of the wagon and I used to watch him shave. back then we had an out house so the problem of going to the bath room was no problem and yes we had a box of corn cobs red ones for the first and yellow for the rest of the job.
Love a vardo. I would like it about 14’ so I could have a little bathroom. Beautiful workmanship. I think I would go with a smaller stove too even though I would have to stoke it more often. Maybe a couple of storage boxes on the outside as well. Very talented. Thank you for showing your gorgeous work. The transom window is great. Lets a lot of natural light in!
Absolutely brilliant way to live and for me definitely more homely and comfortable than a lot of modern vans. You could definitely feel chilled in it. Thank you George for allowing the tour and your leather work is awesome 👌
This has GOT to be one of the most awesome, coolest things I have EVER seen. It's my long-term dream to eventually build a Vardo that can be pulled by horse(s) (I'm a horse person and will always have horses in my life) as well as by motor vehicle, but for now I'm entering "Van Life" by building out a high rise truck topper, lol. So excited for the future and SO inspired by this video!

Awesome gyspy wagon. And fantastic wood, leather & other stuff like metal workings. Just outrageously awesome.
Beautiful, the leather bags are gorgeous. Safe travels, Blessings
The interviewer was fabulous. She needs to start her own channel. Great voice, great commentary.
I thought the same thing
Have to agree. She is an excellent interviewer. Asks all the right questions. Her voice is very calming.
Yes she did a great job.
I think KC is loyal to working with Bob so I appreciate her contributions to his channel.
@@SindyJ37 , Bob makes 6 figures with his UA-cam channel. She has the talent so she is a fool if she does it as a volunteer.
Breath taking!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 The skill & talent this guy has is off the charts! The backpack & overnight bag stole my heart😍😍. Cassie is a fantastic interviewer. Her voice is so calm & soothing. She could do voiceover work👌🏽 Thanks,Bob!😊❤️
This is the first Vardo I have seen where the ceiling beams run front to back instead of side to side. Great feature. Inspired now. Great video.
I really love this gypsy wagon I loved it how he decorated it inside❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕💕💕🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍😍😍

Thanks very nice video
I liked your wagon 👍👍👍👍👍
I have wanted a Vardo for years. This man and his ways, abilities etc... AND this Vardo are wonderful. Thank You for sharing this.

And this man made a beautifully detailed instructables page too for the build thank you it’s gorgeous!!!

What a beautiful build, would love to go to one of the getherings.
That is the most arranged neat junk draws ever.
What a beautiful build of the wagon... Well thought out and it shows the craftsmanship along with your leather making ... Thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks!
Loved meeting George! What an incredible artist and craftsman. Fantastic interview. No substitute for knowledgeable questions like these. Well done.
Thanks for the kind words. KC has the most soothing voice I think I have ever heard.
Very nice, KC. May I suggest that you shoot wide establishing shots of interior without bodies and exteriors too. This was a lovely video. Thank you.
@@mikejensen4238 me2
The gifted keeps giving. Beautiful craftsman, beautiful home❤️❤️
How amazing!!
I would love to build a Gypsy Wagon Vardo. They are very unique and can be exquisite.
One of my favourite interviews, many thanks. This is definitely more to my liking than a high tech RV.
Love the gypsy wagon! Kaycee does have a great voice! She sounds like this in person too. Nice guy!
Visually beautiful. But what really knocks me out are the acoustics. Nothing compares to wood.
Wow it so beautiful... Attention to detail is excellent.. Great work. 👍👍
Lovely. Great craftmanship in the build and leather. Thank you both for taking the time to share,
I'm looking at making one of these for my kids and I. Out of a old pop up trailer.
Immaculate work, beautifully maintained, too! Than you!
Bob, this interview is over the top. I am a Civil War Reenactor and modern day backpacker. This interview means so much ! Thank you !

What a nice guy, and so creative.
Your home is so BEAUTIFUL. Thank you so much for sharing!
Your assistant is one say interviewer,great job.
The best ecological nomadic vehicle. And beautiful to boot.
My top favourite.
I did not see the outside of the rig including the vehicle. Would have been nice if it was shown.
Charmingly cozy and well crafted.

I really enjoyed this interview, great job KC. Beautiful Vardo.
that was the most interesting trailer/ vardo i have ever saw, just beautifully crafted
I used a toolbox to store all my cake decorating supplies! It was perfect!!!
This is so beautiful! I love there old English Gypsy wagons. This guy is so skillful and talented to be doing all these different kinds of handcrafted works of art. What a great video! Thanks for sharing it with us.
What an amazing talent! Thank you for sharing - I look forward to checking out his leather work.
So cool and full of beautiful artistry. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks KC that was great, and Bob I’m sure glad u found KC
Totally interesting. A work of art no less. Amazing workmanship in an age of plastic and metal.
Hey KC so glad you shot and posted this video👍😊. Heard that you attended this and wanted to know what it was all about. Thanks for sharing 👍😊❤️
Wow! This was a really impressive build; so many details, and just very pleasing to the eyes. Very homey.
A beautiful work of art, and a very intelligent guy.
✌❤beautiful build, what a gift he has.
It took an archaeologist to bring all of those magnificent details into a space such as a gypsy wagon. I've seen a number of gypsy wagons but none compare to George's!
Thanks! That might be one of the nicest compliments I've ever heard.
Very nice wagon. I love the unique dual purpose pieces, such great ideas.
Thanks Bob ,that was a great video. Loved it.
Thank you KC for this beautiful series !
Multi-talented! I love vardos and this one has so many great details. Gorgeous leather work, too!
Absolutely the best. I am inspritd to create my own vardo style old school camper.
Excellent job KC!
Thank you Bob and KC! 👍❤️😍
What a beautiful wagon. Very envious. :)

KC is great. My son is Casey. Same sound spelled differently. Wonderful interview. I love the Gypsy wagon!
Love a vardo. I would like it about 14’ so I could have a little bathroom. Beautiful workmanship. I think I would go with a smaller stove too even though I would have to stoke it more often. Maybe a couple of storage boxes on the outside as well. Very talented. Thank you for showing your gorgeous work. The transom window is great. Lets a lot of natural light in!
Well, this guy is super interesting and it's super cool he just goes and does stuff that he loves doing way to do life, sir
Absolutely brilliant way to live and for me definitely more homely and comfortable than a lot of modern vans.
You could definitely feel chilled in it.
Thank you George for allowing the tour and your leather work is awesome 👌
Stunning beauty! Well done, KC! Some year I'll make it to Wintercount.
I really love it! I have always wanted a wagon like his. 😊 thank you for sharing.
I love ur vardo! Super nice. Be safe, stay well.
Love you Bob!
This is beautiful woodworking
Thank you, KC! Great interview and tour, would love to see more from you.
Awesome! I love it!😊👍👍🚙🚐🚙🚚🚛🐌🐢🐌🐢🐌🐢🌻🦋🌻
It’s absolutely beautiful, he definitely is very talented!
So incredibly beautiful and functional!

This is really more of a sheep wagon/shepherd's wagon. I'm building something similar.
What a lovely little home. It's absolutely beautiful! ❤️💙💚💛
It would have been nice if you walked around the outside of the gypsy wagon.
Beautiful. Love ❤️
Very nice. Many excellent items utilized to make it a charming gypsy wagon. The window from Lubbock, a piece from my city, cool. Well done.
This is beautiful! Love the metal door hinges.
Using Oil Lamps, that's a good idea. That rear door concept was put on my Vintage trailer, as well.
That's an amazing caravan.
