Lol, heres one for the comment section! I love seeing how they have the white vehicals sideway! Although when you experience life time and time again, you just know thats not what it is! And it does get old when you have people work thier ass off, meet every achievment and then back to non sence! No thank you! People don't build to be around bumm tool sets! Awesome build
So, you missed the "stupid look" part of shop class, but you obviously learned everything else, that was more important. Love your use of logic and humor.
I would never have watched this if I didn't know you and your customer, but if I hadn't watched this, I would have totally missed out. Fantastic work: carpentry, design, commentary, videography, faces. Wow!
IMPRESSIVE build-out of an excellent design - THANKS for taking the time to document the entire construction process, adding your sense of humor to the final cut, and sharing the video.
Brilliant! I hope she loved it. I certainly would. You have taught me a lot just in this one video for when I get my van. I won't be living in it full time. I'll just be a snowbird to Arizona in the winter.
I'm a long time close friend of Linda's. I absolutely LOVE what you created here! Is this what you do for a living? If not, you should - so many people converting vans to travel and even live in now. :) Well done mate, Keith
That was a really good video! And I sincerely thank you for not making me listen to your tools like so many do. I also appreciate the quality of your work! I get pretty upset when people are too far from the microphone and I can't hear anything they are saying. 👍💕🤗
Mad skills, wish I had a friend like you! This was entertaining, informative and at times funny too. Great job not just on the build but on your video.
Thank you for actually showing the process. I’m not a carpenter so I’m always curious how this stuff is done. Now I know and may be able to attempt it on my own!
A very nice piece of work! Impressive. I think this minivan is one of the best. The 2023 model gives you 36 mpg! Older models from 2020 are 27 mpg. Nothing comes this close. Spacious inside, easy to drive, nice ergonomics and 36 mpg! If I were this owner, I would sell all the extra seats, tracks, everything. Keep it as a conversion and go all the way to making it a cute functional RV for short hauls. Add the overhead fan, extra house batteries, small inverter, gas stove, fridge, and exterior shower. The payload capacity for 2023 is 1330 lbs. Towing capacity is 3500 lbs. Truly a great vehicle. You did a very nice job on the floor and bed. They look superb. I wish you had spent a few more minutes on the finished tour. It was too short. Also please don't put links up on screen till video is over. Thanks for no music!
Nice job! I just took out the back seats put a couple of moving blankets down and put a twin memory foam mattress. I travel for work every month and my van is my home on wheels!
Kudos for keeping it moving, keeping it light and not putting in ads and no goofy faced clickbait thumbnails. You're bucking the trend and I like it. I have two old siennas and you're making me inspired.
Outstanding!!! Love your tone, and commentary..you made it enjoyable to watch! Such talent and I hope you got paid well...very simple clean design. Love it!
great job, I know your friend will enjoy the build, I enjoyed watching this build, and so I decided to Subscribe to your channel , great job, gave it a thumbs up 👍🏻And thanks for Sharing your build and Van Conversion Tour with Us.
Wow fantastic job! I’m getting ready to do a van build on my 2021 Toyota sienna XSE, yes I want to take my backseats out. Yes I’m aware that I’m going to have to get cheating device to deactivate the airbag warning light on the dash. Several videos showing how to do this. It is the perfect camper with the 1500 W inverter system, love using my Insta pot while camping or anything with electricity and not having to have a generator! Also the climate control is fantastic at night when it’s sticky outside! Left my van on for two nights of camping, about 9 1/2 hours each night, and I still averaged a 34 miles per gallon average for that tank!
You did a great job with just building it without plans. You have some talent in carpentry. I think the van owner’s going to be very comfortable living in it or just a weekend trip.
Nifty little build. I have an upholstery shop; the best tool for cutting foam is a cheap electric knife from big box. Just spray a little silicone on the blade and make sure you hold it square as it cuts fast.
This is brilliant. I've often thought that I should do something with my 2006 Sienna where I could travel in it like a camper or even live in it. I envy people with your skills. I wish that I could have something like this done. Well done
I've been watching Sienna build videos for months. This is the most appealing build I have seen.
Very nice job on the build. Also enjoyed the commentary.
Thanks! I had a lot of fun with it!

“This wasn’t a still photo.” As someone who likes DIY and trying new projects……I feel your pain with the “wait….what?” moments. Great video and build.
Please wear a mask when working with foam. I think you did a fantastic job. I’m a mom and can’t help worrying about safety, sorry.
Fellow mom here & I had the same thought. Safety always!
loving the dry humor, super thorough and more helpful then you think brotha!
i was wondering what u meant by dry humor, after watching the video I can see what u mean lol. I love it too.
I love the 'brain fart, slo mo' scene. I'm familiar with that stage and spend a lot of time there. Incredible minivan build!
Lol
So, you missed the "stupid look" part of shop class, but you obviously learned everything else, that was more important. Love your use of logic and humor.
Entertaining to watch and something to learn from this video. This needs to have high number of views!
Good craftsmanship! Folks like you are appreciated!
Sooooo cool!!! I bet your customer LOVED it!!! 😍😍😍
Thanks, looking forward to getting the review after a couple months!
Great build & good use of space.
I love this design, its not overwhelming ❤
Great design and workmanship! Thankyou for sharing
Thanks for watching!
One of the best simple sienna builds I have seen yet!
Omg! Thanks so much for the helpful visual on how to trace the contours of the side of the van. I have wondered about this!
Yes! Me too!
I would never have watched this if I didn't know you and your customer, but if I hadn't watched this, I would have totally missed out. Fantastic work: carpentry, design, commentary, videography, faces. Wow!
Very well done young man you have some Craftsman skills
IMPRESSIVE build-out of an excellent design - THANKS for taking the time to document the entire construction process, adding your sense of humor to the final cut, and sharing the video.
Amazing job! I like your thinking face. I think this is one of my top 3 minivan conversions I’ve seen on You tube. Well done.
Thanks, I had fun with it!
I heard Michelangelo made the same face when he was staring at the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel
@@MarcillaSmith Lol
A true craftsman and a great sense of humor, too. Well done!
Great build, and some of the best commentary ever !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very impressive. I hope the recipient enjoys it. TFS.
Brilliant! I hope she loved it. I certainly would. You have taught me a lot just in this one video for when I get my van. I won't be living in it full time. I'll just be a snowbird to Arizona in the winter.
This is one of the nicest minivan builds I’ve seen… You are obviously very skilled. Thanks for sharing!
I love that design. The video was not to long at all. It wasn’t long enough. You do good work so watching longer is easy.
Glad to see those lightening holes in the bed platform. Very good layout.
Wow! Impressive build!
Wow, I am so impressed with your work. Nice job!!!
I'm a long time close friend of Linda's. I absolutely LOVE what you created here! Is this what you do for a living? If not, you should - so many people converting vans to travel and even live in now. :) Well done mate, Keith
I'm thinking of doing some type of car/RV/camper living, too. I make pretty decent money, but I feel like it's just not enough anymore.
Great storytelling and a dope build. Nicely done. 👍🏻🔥
Thanks man!
Exceptional build. I loved the sink set up and you left some floor space.
great build - very informative - and, BONUS, very entertaining commentary too - loved it
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome job! Great work!
Love your build, man. So much space when you only need a single bed.
Absolute genius!!!! Thanks for the scribing of the cabinet template... Definitely using this A+++
This looks amazing. Way cleaner than most builds I've seen, and it still gives the ability to revert it all back afterwards.
That was a really good video! And I sincerely thank you for not making me listen to your tools like so many do. I also appreciate the quality of your work! I get pretty upset when people are too far from the microphone and I can't hear anything they are saying. 👍💕🤗
Mad skills, wish I had a friend like you! This was entertaining, informative and at times funny too. Great job not just on the build but on your video.
I appreciate that!
@@TellerWhat would you consider outsourcing you skills to build me one plz
You did a great job & explained it really well.
Thank you!
This was a very clean, sturdy and nicely fitted build. Love it!👍🏼
Thanks!
Thank you for actually showing the process. I’m not a carpenter so I’m always curious how this stuff is done. Now I know and may be able to attempt it on my own!
Dope build, this would be a great business for you converting vans to home on wheels
I want to see it after the resident actually moves in.
So far, looks great 👍🏻
Great job on the build, lots of tips we can use. You have amazing skills and talents, thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Cheers!
That was GREAT!! ☺️ Thanks, your build made this old lady's day. 😊
You're amazing. Perfect build despite the angles and challenges. Genius with a jigsaw.
Excellent work, wish I had half your talent, bravo!!

Woodworking and design talent and funny too! Great work!!
Very nice work! I ended up doing a “no build” build in my 2013 Sienna. Those seat trolleys are a major pain without floor plywood. You did it right!
Lovely! I really like the way the legs curve at the top under the bed. Beautifully done. 🌷⭐🌷⭐🌷
Wow. One of the best microcampers I've seen! Nice work. 👌
Nice job! I just took out the back seats put a couple of moving blankets down and put a twin memory foam mattress. I travel for work every month and my van is my home on wheels!

So awesome!!! You are great at what you do ~ carpentry & comedy ❣️👏😆
Good work on the Mini Van build. Great sense of humor, too. Dry and self deprecating. :)
Thanks! 👍
The Humor was great! Enjoyed the build.
I love to see these small van buildouts, especially when they turn out so well and give the user lots of room
These pigs weight over 4,500 LBS.
@@piggy310 Wrong video. That build weighs less than the seats that were taken out.
@@serenityjewel I was talking about the factory weight. My 2015 sienna.
Wow!😳 Awesome! You did a great job! Beautiful creation!
That came out really nice, man. Great job!
Outstanding!!!
Love your tone, and commentary..you made it enjoyable to watch! Such talent and I hope you got paid well...very simple clean design. Love it!
Beautiful work! And I love your clamping system :-)
Love your humors. The build turned out to be a very clean and nice one.
Really well thought out layout Well done!
Thank You!!! Such a good job of explaining what you did and WHY! This helps me feel like I can do it too! 😊
This van turned out fantastic !! You did a great job.
Thanks! Fun project!
Well thought out and executed. Nice job, thanks
great job, I know your friend will enjoy the build, I enjoyed watching this build, and so I decided to Subscribe to your channel , great job, gave it a thumbs up 👍🏻And thanks for Sharing your build and Van Conversion Tour with Us.
Yo, dude, Audiobooks while you work for the absolute win. Such a hack. Great job on the build.
The best I've seen yet
Thanks!
This is the best I've seen for Sienna and ranks with best overall
Back storage area with the shelf that can lift is a smart move. Love the sink area as well. Great job!
Fantastic build! Love your video style and humor.

Yeah, I'd love to work on one of those!
Are you for hire?
That climate control is everything !💙
You did a great job with just building it without plans. You have some talent in carpentry. I think the van owner’s going to be very comfortable living in it or just a weekend trip.
Omg I wish I had these skills and tools to do this. Great video! You give me hope to life comfortably out of my sienna
You can do it!
Can I hire you 🥺
A man that can still build in this America, how refreshing.🎉
Great build, thank you for the inspiration.
I like this out of all that I have seen
Wow!!! I checked your channel and see this is the only video you posted. I pray you’re well. This is the most beautiful build in a mini van I’ve seen.
Thank you! I'm well, working on a new build video soon!
Give yourself a pat on the back because you did a fantastic job!
Nice job! Love the style.
Really appreciate you documenting the process. Great inspiration!
Love it love the Simplicity very clean
Glad you like it!
So great! You did an amazing job!!!
Thank a lot, I appreciate it!
Nifty little build.
I have an upholstery shop; the best tool for cutting foam is a cheap electric knife from big box. Just spray a little silicone on the blade and make sure you hold it square as it cuts fast.
Thanks for the info, I'll definitely try that next time!
Nice layout and well done!
You are funny, that’s not a stupid look on your face because I could feel the wheels turning and you coming up with the solution!👍🏽😜🥰great job!
Not a long video , great stuff.love it. Never too long if one is learning.
Excellent plan, executed.
So nicely professionally explained.
You are a pro, can go I to van build business.
I am serious.
👍👍.
Work of art. Ive watched many builds and there bulky over done but this was smooth clean and simply amazing design
Wow, thank you!
I need a neighbor like you -- with skills and tools! :D Well done!!
Don't know what's best the dry humor or the end product! Fantastic job and motivation! :)
What a great layout & build!!!
You did such a creative job doing this build. This exactly what I'd love to have for my van.
you did an excellent job building this!
This is brilliant. I've often thought that I should do something with my 2006 Sienna where I could travel in it like a camper or even live in it. I envy people with your skills. I wish that I could have something like this done. Well done
The '06 does not have those dastardly seat trolleys!
Great ideas, liked the weighed items, will use your ideas in my 2012 Sienna
Impressive, I bet the customer was extremely pleased. Love your dog btw, British Bulldog? handsome fella.
Well done!
