    I like it. I like the idea of having the bench seat so you can carry extra people and the bed set up is about the best one can do if you want the extra seating in a small van.

    I like the folding tables and the use of the fridge as a seat and the folding tables.

    Love the minimalist design. It's great that all of the storage is enclosed.

      Yes, I failed to mention this. He seems to have quite a bit of space even with water tanks and power components in there. That's no small feat since this is a smaller area than most vans out there.

    It's nice! Thanks for the video because it gives ideas. I waste way too much time looking and thinking about building a van but without the money yet =D. I need to figure out if I can tolerate disposing of human waste and a couple other things with the lifestyle, too. :) I could make it work otherwise, for sure. I have the personality for it, I think. There's expensive equipment in many builds especially the electrical, so I'd have to think about security and prevention quite a bit, plus trying not to have too much should worst case scenario occur. I think for people who do good prevention the odds are quite low, though.

    Cool design, but I like your NV design better Nate. Yours seems more full time focused while his feels more weekender excursion to me.

    I love that you kept the back seats. Are they the seats that come with the van or are they custom built? If I remember correctly the original ones are quite far to the front right?

    You never see a good bed set up, it’s either a crystal maze puzzle or a cramped side to side bed. I’m in a pre purchase design phase and a full size double bed is my priority since I’ll be mostly sleeping in it! Well other than driving but I don’t have to worry about that design!

  • @RichardStefanits
    @RichardStefanits 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    At first sight the layout looked very similar to the UK layout with the rock&roll bed design, but the operation is quite different. Interesting.

  • @robincrook5630
    @robincrook5630 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I wouldn't use it to live in. But to camp and travel a bit, I like how clean it looks in design and you were careful not to add too much weight by trying to mimic indoor cabinets. Nice.

    Yeah the bed would be a definite turn off. As well as the vinyl on the ceiling that you can see is starting to peel off, or at least it looks like it.

    My only concern about that lining is how does it cope with condensation? That material is a cold surface looking for warm moisture to condense.

  • @GundamDroid
    @GundamDroid 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Neat build, I like the multi-functional use of the faucet. Although, that vinyl material and coloring would eventually drive me nuts. Its not cozy, and seems uncomfortable space to be in long term. I prefer Nates wall interior, its more relaxing.

    Add a switch so that when you turn on the electric water pump the water won't turn on right away

    • @RiDankulous
      @RiDankulous 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed, but I bet he or someone else could make some fairly small changes to make it easier, like where to put that table, or it's components.
