About this van:
It is super cool to meet people who were inspired by the videos I made about my first van
(this one; • How to convert a Van i... ) Great to hear that it was part of Vince and Kate's story leading to them self-building this van so that they could spend long periods skiing in the alps and have all the luxuries of a cosy ski chalet, but without the massive price!
This van really is a chalet on wheels and when you're inside and the doors are closed you'd never know you were in a van. Every inch of the metal has been covered with beautiful wood and the result is a warm, cosy feeling home.
The van is also not short on cool features and includes a great kitchen, awesome fixed bed with massive garage storage, an exterior gas-powered shower, a fully off-grid solar-powered electric system and an ingenious pull-out table, which creates a great dining area, despite the van having a fixed bed.
Although the wooden Scandi look features in a lot of self-build vans, this one really nails it and is a great example of how it can be done with class!
I hope you enjoyed this tour, don't forget to help us out by liking and subscribing :)

Nice comfy build, indeed! But I have to ask my favorite question owners with a RV without toilet: Where do you poo? =) For me RV means independence. Especially in the winter season. I know, it's a big deal building a toilet cabin in a RV like your size, but it is possible. I prefer a roof extension with a down foldable bed.

There are benefits with a partition between the cab and the rest, but I don't care, I want the front chairs on swivels so they then become comfy chairs to sit in when you're parked. Partitioning off the cab is just a massive waste of living space in my book. But, to each his own. Wood looks nice but it weighs a ton, and weight is the enemy, so that's another thing to keep in mind.
@mkteku
@mkteku 5 лет назад
I keep going back and forth on this. I like the partition in-case of a frontal collision, so stuff does not fly to the front. I suppose if everything is fixed to the max, that is a solution, but can that be done perfectly on a diy budget? Also, heating efficiency. ... on the other hand -- they S W I V E E E L ! =D, oh the sweet, swell swivelage. 🙃 There's a build with an awesome laptop desk that comes down in-front of the swiveled driver-seat. Polish was the builder I believe. The one with those ultra fast electric bikes =D

In addition to the seating space, you can get out of a dicey situation more quickly if you don't have to go outside first.
@IvyRoad
@IvyRoad 5 лет назад
@@mkteku Ah yes, didn't think of that. If I had that partition, for that reason or for temp control, I'd put a door, or a hatch, in it so that the cab was accessible from the "chalet" in an emergency.

Tru-tru, @@IvyRoad =). I saw this solved with sliding/pocket doors a few times. One had a full length mirror on the door. Not that I am checking outfits everyday, but it might be cool to have for the spacial effectage and some of its symbolism, I suppose =D... (Thinkin "Fevers & Mirros" & co.)
@lorcro2000
@lorcro2000 5 лет назад
@@IvyRoad Yeah, emergency exits are something people may not be considering. Can you get out if the vehicle flips and lands on the sliding door? Can you get out if it lands on the sliding door and then slides tail-end first into a ditch? There needs to be a way to get out of there in basically every orientation possible, in my opinion. Accidents do happen.
