Beautiful camper! The two of you should be very proud of your accomplishment. So much thought went into the construction. Lots of great features. It is gorgeous!
Creating a space capsule/camper with windows to match your International Scout tow vehicle was GENIUS!!! Your ingenuity matches your building skills... Congratulations on monumental Camper ❤
Pretty cool build! Many surprises, like refrigerator door on the inside, pull out kitchen, cover on air conditioner, big bed, large water tank. I love it. I think he could add a screened in porch pretty easy on the kitchen side of the camper. This could possibly turn into a business.
Great video! Such an awesome build… Love all the collective pieces that work so well together! Please follow up with another video if John modifies in the future! Would love to see what him and his wife come up with! Team work!
Fantastic build love it guys and the use of recycled materials everything is great ..plus love the tabletop Joan it’s gorgeous 🙏❤️🇳🇿🇳🇿thanks for tour Patrick
I love these personal builds. The engineering is amazing. As a design student, “form follows function “ was pounded into our heads. This is very well done.
@@johnrichie5297 You did an incredible job with this. I love all the practical and the aesthetic details in your build. Great use of space and materials.
Wow!! This is absolutely beautiful - clever design & also personalized (love the Alien references - in 1979 I was in Washington DC & went 3 times to see Alien). Gorgeous!
Wow! I really like the creativity on this build. Especially like the outdoor kitchen design with the game table. And I like the epoxy countertops. Nice build. Enjoy it.
What a couple! What a build! I was moved to write when your wife came around the corner. Just the way you greeted her and brought her into the presentation. Rehearsed or spontaneous, it worked! I just started smiling, thinking of the two of you having a ball putting it together and then enjoying it on your travels. It doesn't have everything I would want, but it has a lot of features you don't see offered anywhere else, that I really like. I really like the extra length, and your fridge slider. You said you wanted to make coffee inside in the morning. Does that mean you access your stove from inside, and the bed folds away or something? You gain convenience and ease with your kitchen and fridge on sliders. Maybe I need to watch again. You mentioned coffee without going outside, when you were showing the refrigerator, but I didn't catch your coffee setup. I do see you using the extra length of the cabin for enough counter space for a coffee making setup. I admire your use of materials, I don't think I'd go with those materials, because I'll be buying one already made, and I don't have the skills to maintain, much less repair a lot of the stuff you used. But for YOU, it's all stuff you're confident you can maintain and repair. That rubber roof WILL wear out. But somebody with eyeballs on it will pick up on it and do something about it before it ever comes close to damaging any of the wood. I'm a guy who might forget to check. About the only other thing I'd do different is I'd want more heating options for fall-winter-spring camping. Your national parks countertop map would more likely be a national forests map, for me. Most of the time I don't need 4 wheel drive, but most of my trips entail some 4-wheeling at or near my destination, so I'm a little closer to off-road than you.
Another great DIY job my friend this is why I encourage people make your own don't spend $30,000 or no dumb camper trailer make your own for quarter of the price mines made out of wood and mine's in the process of almost being done I can't wait to finish my camper trailer myself which cost me Pennies on the dollar compared to pain $30,000 from a manufacturer which is very light and weak mine is heavier but strong and will hold the ground because of the weight hell yeah.. not to mention mine is a high top DIY high top which I did myself of course it's not finished yet to go with my camper van which I did myself DIY is the way to go guys DIY rocks..
WOW! Love it. What a lovely couple! Their union must have been made in heaven given their talent, skills, and knowledge. Their "camper" is an art piece, in my opinion. Beautiful, and functional. I enjoyed the ease with which he was able to show the different compartments, and their use. Clearly, an excellent, and well thought out design. My only disappointment was not meeting their dog! I wish them happy, fun, and safe travels, and success with their future creations.
Hi John, Wonderful build - nicely thought out for your use. You show an instant hot water shower in its own portable case. Could you please post the information for that as it might be what we are looking for for our van build🤞
Very Nice and can I mention your cool International Scout❤Cool Ride❤ Such a great job and so roomy on the inside with nice finishes & that bed at the end of the day I bet feels wonderful. You both should be so proud!!!
Love this idea. Definitely did your due diligence. Only thing I saw that I was wondering about, seems like your concerned about security and saw your exterior hinges on your doors. Since already built, I'd change the fasteners out with security torx style. That way not every degenerate with a Phillips can feel froggy. Just being "that guy" lol love the build and the sourcing of parts. Love the build man, mad respect!!
Thanks for checking it out and good luck with your build. I have lock nuts on the inside which would prevent anyone from unscrewing the hinges from the outside.
I loved it! It is a beautifully designed trailer, and I lived in Manahawkin for 20 years. I keep a very small 12nV cooler inside my DIY for the same reasons.
There goes that sweet camper van again awesome then I'm jealous I love your camper van my friend I'm going to come steal it from you and then give you my one of course I love mine but I like the way yours is four wheel drive too hell yeah..🤘🤘🤘 now that's Punk..
