Canadian Winter Van Life - Cubic Mini Install - Heat Shielding 

I don’t know what you’re building. I don’t care what you’re building. I just like watching you build stuff.

Dude you’re an absolute renaissance man.

Seems like love at first sight. Things are about to get hot and sweaty in the van.

Glad you were wearing your safety socks!

Man, there are other "van life" channels that I've watched that are literally 20-30 minute commercials of equipment to put in a $200,000 van. All of the top of the line equipment and montages of the van being in the shop being upgraded. This guy here stops at the hardware store, orders on Amazon and sleeps in the van while his building it. His channel is legit. Edit: And as i look to the right at my playlist, the following video is exactly that, 4 X 4 Sprinter van. I guess if you have the money, might as well get the best. Still prefer Foresty's van though.

Honestly Forest's ingenuity and general knowledge about everything is impressive

A wood stove? Ok. Now you are just playing. Your diesel heater was survival. This is fun. Your van life has come a long way!

And here I am bitching about not having enough work space in my shared garage, and Mr. Forest builds a platform for his wood stove inside his van.

I do believe Foresty Forest could build an exact, to scale, replica of the Eiffel Tower out of 2x2's

Gotta appreciate the multitasking. Its hard to install a stove. Its probably crazy hard to install a stove from within a van. Its downright rocket-science to install a stove from within a van AND film it!

That cracked me up when FF said “lighting a fire inside my van” with a fairly concerned look on his face 😂

🤣😂She's beautiful. I think you guys are going to be really happy together. ❤

I was hoping you would have chosen a bathtub over the wood stove but hey, it’s your van.

I have the cubic mini grizzly in our mobile ski cabin. Absolutely love it! Keeps our family of 5 toasty warm and dry all winter. Make sure you do the initial firing of the stove outside. The toxic fumes that come off the stove from the paint are horrible and it will leave a smell in the van for a long time. After you have cured the paint with the first use you don’t need to worry.

I can’t wait for the fire side chats that we are going to have. I can see it now a mug of steaming hot cocoa and the fireplace crackling in the background. And maybe a Christmas song or two playing. I love it

Me and my best mate had the qubic mini, was the greatest little fire! Kept us warm in our big rv while we lived on the resort carpark in big white! Great times thanks for the memories

You are so talented. I am so glad that you are doing something that you love and living a life that we all want to live. Thank you for taking us on your journey.

He’s the McGyver of van builds!!!!! Great work Forest

Love how you use the quilting ruler to measure so many things!!

holding the sheet metal with your foot while only wearing socks plus using a jigsaw was very bold
