    I love the thought of doing this with wrapping paper, which comes in hundreds of thousands of possible patterns, without even having to do the shred & wrinkle step. Can't wait to try it! Thanks for this awesome video!

    Even for making a custom console between the seats, this would be a great project. putting in cup holders and everything.

    Classic decoupage technique. Been around for thousands of years and I'm loving seeing it's application used here. My work consists of a lot of decoupage and to see it here is great!

  • @flanmaryj
    @flanmaryj 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I'm glad that you asked for step by step instructions. Once the bags dry, they're really the same as wood and can be finished in all the same ways as wood. I like that each coat of different materials add strength to to cabinets.

    @RebelPixels 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    As someone who's just getting into van dwelling and has zero power tool access, this is a godsend. Finally, those years of art school fiddling with box cutters and X-Acto knives has some relevance! Thanks a ton to both of you!

    This is a neat idea. I love the catching of the sponge brush. They're among my favorite tools. I'm sharing this with my husband. We're building out a van camper and lightweight shelves like these may be useful. I love the finish.

      It is super easy! Anyone could do it. I feel as though the time is well spent for the uniqueness of this look. Glue can dry easily in a day especially if left outside. It takes longer to wait for stain to dry between coats then anything especially if you live in an area with high humidity and are living in the van while working on it.

  • @1linnell
    @1linnell 7 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    I just can't stop thinking about these 2 videos! You know, I have been combing the web and TH-cam, and I don't think there is anything out there that talks about this inspired way of building. And so, I have lots of questions, eg, how are the cabinets mounted to the walls (or, secured to the floors) in the van? I know that anything less than 3/4 inch plywood runs the risk of warping; what did he do to those luan cabinet doors? How did he inset the wood for hinges? (Gawd, you better monetize this, quick, lolol). And finally, I sure would like more details on the gym mat/luan floor in the van.

    • @ianmansfieldalbert
      @ianmansfieldalbert 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To 1linnell: No matter how long you spend combing the web, you are not going to be able to untangle it.

  • @enriquemireles8947

    nice work you could spray that textured spray to make it look like stone

  • @sjr7822
    @sjr7822 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    When I did the paper bag project I wrinkled the paper and put into a bucket of water to tamp before dipping in glue mixture. I use everything waterbased

  • @KevinMullett
    @KevinMullett 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    You could skim coat the screened panels with various types of body filler, final sand prep, prime and finish with auto-body paint or spray bombs. Including factory matching interior colors or even a rhino lining type finish which would hide imperfections. Long N Strong (filler type) would even give it more strength, though it would also add weight over finishing fillers. Alternately you could cover it with vinyl, though that wouldn't add any appreciable strength like the papier Mâché does and would likely be heavier. Great video!

    • @Into_The_Mystery_13
      @Into_The_Mystery_13  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Kevin Mullett great ideas, thanks for your input!

    • @guyh.4553
      @guyh.4553 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      But if you added vinyl over the fiberglass screen, that would just add to the tensile strength

  • @Hiker_who_Sews
    @Hiker_who_Sews 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like very light colors. I think I'll do a test with chalk paint instead of stain.

  • @badbiker666
    @badbiker666 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    There is a term for what you are doing; taking bits of paper, soaking them in a glue solution, and applying them to a surface. It is called Papier Mâché. Can do lots of cool stuff with this technique. Lots of TH-cam tutorials as well.

    I wonder if putting stain in the glue/water would save a step of staining? Might be a way to go.

  • @Just-My-Opinion
    @Just-My-Opinion 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    hey what about finishing it with plywood 1/8" thick. actual thickness is .106 inch so its really thin. you avoid all the work of having to paper bag it and you might even gain the positives of full wood cabinets for the finish and screw capabilities

    • @garethbaus5471
      @garethbaus5471 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could use that plywood instead of any screen or other tensile layer on the outside for the structure which serves 2 purposes.

  • @nancynightingale6267
    @nancynightingale6267 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hmmmmm, could you put the Minwax oil based stain (hmmm, oil and water?) AND the polyurethane in the glue/water and it becomes a one-step dealio ?

  • @GraverFILMS
    @GraverFILMS 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Jed I know this video is a bit older but I was wondering if you ever tried to finish these with a nice wood veneer? I can imagine it would look pretty sharp and clean if you attempt it although maybe not be as cheap. Let me know your thoughts if you see this and thanks for your videos man!

    • @guyh.4553
      @guyh.4553 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Graver, that's an excellent idea! Little bit more on the cost but you'd have the wood finish with the super lightweight cabinet.

  • @thechumpsbeendumped.7797
