I would love to get a T shirt or a hat. Just let m know how. I also liked the way you used your shop vac with your Kreig Jig. I've got mine hooked up to the table saw, now I can keep even more dust down.
New subscriber here. I like the way in your series that you explain the finer details while other videos leave out crucial steps. Keep up the work, will continue to watch.
Cool video, But the typical way for cabinet doors is the vertical (styles) run full length and the horizontal (rails) run in-between. Also, being that it is a mobile rv that would see unpredictable climates, the center panels should be free of gluing to allow for any expansion or contraction. Just my two cents..
I'm building a promaster myself and I like your videos although I did my a little different but next van I will know things thanks for the detailed videos that no one else does
Very nice video! I'm converting a van myself right now and I'm at the stage of figuering out the cabinets. What thicknes do you use for the face frames?
Hi thanks for the content, could you explain whether you’ve had any issues screwing directly into the laminate flooring (expansion/contraction on the laminate)? And whether you went as deep as going into the subfloor with the fixings as well?
Van building business! I have a personal van already that I built out almost 2 years ago. But recently started a business to build and sell these vans!
I'm building a VW Caddy short wheelbase and it's becoming expensive. Bigger vans would cost a lot. Seems like I spend 200 every time I go to the hardware store.
Note to anyone thinking of making TH-cam videos: Music is not necessary for making entertaining and informative videos. Period. But if you insist on using musical tracks in your videos, don't set the music volume in your videos louder than the speech. [Honestly, I came for the info about making cabinets and I could do without the music entirely. When I'm looking for music, I don't browse TH-cam channels with "Van Build" in their name. Know what I mean?] It was fine while he was talking in the beginning, then the music came on and I had to LOWER THE VOLUME because it was SO LOUD. And then, when he started talking again, I had to RAISE THE VOLUME in order to hear what he was saying. And the LOWER THE VOLUME when the music volume went up again, and RAISE THE VOLUME when he started talking again. And so on. And so on. Annoying AF. If you forego the music altogether, then there will be no problem with the volume. And for anyone who wants to comment something like "This is an early video, he's just learning." Fine. I get that. But I'm hoping that any other potential TH-camr who reads this comment will take on the wisdom I'm offering and not make the same mistake when they start publishing their videos.
Sounds like it’s more of a volume control issue more than music. I am still learning the editing thing. But I can assure you, having timelapses with no music is awkward and frankly really boring. It also doesn’t help that non copyright music is garbage so a lot of my time is spent finding songs that aren’t extremely obnoxious. Thanks for the feedback and I’ll continue to try to improve
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds I can appreciate that, from the creator's perspective, the time lapse footage seems boring. For those interested in the topic, and who haven't seen it all before (because they weren't there during the build), it really isn't. But, yes, the primary problem is the volume control. All that being said, I do enjoy your content. This van build is going to be spectacular!
Thanks for sharing! Stickers and hoodies always work...
Right on!! I'm in the process of making them now. I will post on my instagram when they are ready!! Cheers!!
That door swinging down from the slider door is going to be so nice! It’ll be so nice to use it as a table outside to sit around!
Exactly! also easy access to the plumbing under the sink!
Thanks for all your help!
You’re welcome 🤘🏻

So glad to see you using the push block! As a nurse, you can’t believe the traumatic amputations I’ve seen!
I can only imagine!!!!
Table saws will really ruin your fingers. I was ripping a small board, and ended up shredding the tips of my right index and middle fingers...
Very DETAILED, looks great, and thanks for explaining each step! CHEERS!
You’re welcome Stephen!
Awesome video. You've become one of my key references during my own van build, so thank you! Yes, I'd buy some merchandise:)
So happy to help
Love your videos !! Very helpful while I am building out my Ford Transit
Glad I helped!! Good luck
Glad to see your channel growing. I love that your videos use the time for instruction and not a huge intro w/ mediocre B roll.
This right here is exactly why I started this channel! ^ thanks for watching!
New subscriber here. I like the way in your series that you explain the finer details while other videos leave out crucial steps. Keep up the work, will continue to watch.
Thank you! That is the EXACT reason I started this channel. I would get so frustrated in other channels skipping over the difficult parts!

Love your videos. You are such a talented craftsman!

You’re welcome:) glad they helped!
Lets me know if you'd be interested in some T shirts or Hoodies!!!
Hoodie!
Thanks for this. Very helpful
Hey Colton could you link the hinges you use? And I assume they're attached on some small bits of plywood to be level with the door? I appreciate it!
Great videos man! Good solid content.
Thanks!
Very nice video! I'm converting a van myself right now and I'm at the stage of figuering out the cabinets. What thicknes do you use for the face frames?
3/4” thick and 1-1/2” wide
How wide did you go on those bench seats? Any concerns with feeling a little cramped?
One of them was 20” and the other 23”. No issues being crammed!
Might just hire you to renovate my kitchen and build those shaker cabinets now. I hear you work for beer.
....... I like beer ......
Hi thanks for the content, could you explain whether you’ve had any issues screwing directly into the laminate flooring (expansion/contraction on the laminate)? And whether you went as deep as going into the subfloor with the fixings as well?
No issues whatsoever and it did go into the subfloor!
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds interesting, everyone talk about the laminate needing to expand and contract, how long has it been since?
@@southcoastvanlife7760 over a year
How do you secure/anchor the cabinet to the floor?
I have them screwed into the walls on the studs and or metal framework if available. And for the sink I have it screwed into the bench seats
love the logo, would buy golf visor, hat or t-shirt, thanks for you. dp
Thank you! They’re coming soon
Hey Colton, What screws did you use when not pocket holing?
1-1/4 pocket hole screws
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds thank you! that is what I used:)
@@MannyWC perfect :)
how did you secure your fridge?
Inside the fridge has two holes designed for screws to go through
@@AnkeneyVanBuilds mm got ya
Nice work! Are you in the van building business or is this your personal vehicle?
Van building business! I have a personal van already that I built out almost 2 years ago. But recently started a business to build and sell these vans!
Would love t-shirts in 100% organic cotton long sleeve lightweight, women's fit.
When we get merch, it is limited time only, first come first serve! I will keep your request in mind next time we order some shirts :)
New sub here !!!!
Welcome aboard!!
Stickers and t-shirts, please. Thanks.
Coming soon!
I'm not sure how I am gonna do this with only a jig saw and a hand saw.
If there’s a will, there’s a way! Haha good luck!!!

Everything’s expensive now. Crazy

@@livinginthenow thanks for the input :)
It's free content mate, I heard every word fine, beggars can't be choosers
@@ciarantolan4586 The point is that not every one DOES hear every word fine. Be thankful you were able to do so.
Colton please change your sound track.
This video is 10 months old. I’ve changed things up since then roger
