Turn a drawer into a step in your campervan
I turned a drawer into a step inside of my campervan making it easier for Gracie to get into bed with me. She figured out how to use it right away. We had 2.5 months of awesome cuddle time before she passed because of this step. ✨

    This is exactly what I was hoping to see ...a DIY, simple, service-purposeful ramp for my anxiety-ridden 3 yr-old Irish Red & White Setter!!! He LOVES 'car rides' and want to come everywhere with us, (despite him taking most of 2 years to gather up the courage to even get into the back seat of my small car. Can you say 'CHICKEN"???) The first two times I got his 90-odd lbs into my Toyota Tacoma, I just about herniated myself. The third time, he resisted even more strongly, and in the process, got BOTH of his rear ankles trapped between the truck step and the truck body! He panicked (and so did I whilst I envisioned potential irreparable injury, YIIKES! )Of course, with his anxiety, I'm now scuppered in ever getting him camping with us. This may just be the answer. Any chance you could send a side-view photo of your 'professional'-looking ramp? I'd like to confirm that at the top of your ramp (but attached to the underside of it there) you've attached an appropriate sized length of ?2x4? wood that fits between the vehicle's innermost step edge and the vehicle body (to in essence 'fill the gap' where 'Harrigan' got his feet caught), as well as the piece mounted crosswise further down the slope of the ramp for stability/support. Oh, and could I use 1/3: plywood as the ramp? THANK YOU!!!! Sorry for the lengthy comment, but you just may save my sanity ...PLEASE?!?!?! 😵‍💫

    I don't know how to music at all but I'm piecing the information I need to play " I've no more f*cks to give". one very unhelpful tutorial gave me the chords but she just played it and in the comments she responded to people asking that the strum pattern was DDUUD and I think you are the ONLY video that tells me what that means. So thank you, I am one step closer to my goal of playing one very specific song.

    • @aricadorff6868
      @aricadorff6868 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Costs have gone up since then it in 2020 I bought my van as an empty cargo van for $28k from a dealership. It was 1 year old, had 12k miles and I added on a 5 year warranty. The build cost $22,000 (half for materials and half for labor). So the van + build = $50k total.

  • @wendydavis3897
    @wendydavis3897 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Arica, as I look at your build, it looks like the wood paneling (is it shiplap? Or what cut of wood is it? ) I cannot see any seams on the long wall spans. Were you able to find board long enough for the 11' span from front to back, or are there seams that I just am not seeing? I am searching for wood at the moment, and am wondering where you sourced yours from. Thank you in advance for any feedback you have. PS-- fabulous job, your van is gorgeous. :)

    • @aricadorff6868
      @aricadorff6868 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Wendy - My ceiling and walls are tongue and groove pine. Yes the ceiling boards are 11’ long with no seams. I got the wood from a lumbar yard in Woodland, WA (near where I did my van build).

    The build and video are really great! I just have a question. Why not use some kind of laminated sheet product or 1/4 inch sheet wood product. Doesn’t the pine boards (which are just incredibly beautiful) weigh the van down a lot? I have wondered but never asked. Love the hound dog too!

      Hi there! Thanks for the kind words. The tongue and groove pine is heavy but I love the look. Full loaded with the build and all of my belongings, I’ve averaged 17-18 mpg after 1.5 years on the road. If I had to do it over again I would still do the pine. 😊

      @@4KindnessGal I would assume that a veneer material would work just fine - but I’m not super knowledgeable with the pros and cons to using different materials for your ceiling. Lighter weight would of course be the main benefit. Some questions to find answers to would be if the veneer could / would warp or sag over time and does it effect insulation quality.
