so after all that we dont get to see it working?

Great idea, what are the specks of the motor, hp and rpm.

What motor you used?

Perse nuk e shtine ne funkcion. Ta shofim si e grin mishin.

I’ve got one set up very similarly. We gave up on keying or set screwing and just drilled through the love joy and the grinder shaft and stuck roll pin through it. Meat has to be damn nese froze though. The tolerance on a hand crank grinder (in my experience) will not allow it to feed if the meat is thawed.

Cool, this is what I've been thinking about for primarily chicken carcasses for dog food. For anyone else, you need something larger than a #10 if you want to grind chicken/fowl bones. My only real change will be to insure the box frame is longer on the back so the motor is fully supported and can't tip backwards. Might never be a problem, but if one makes the front shorter you could be in for a surprise when you pull the grinder off for cleaning.

Can you post a picture of the name plate on the motor and the gear reduction box as there's probably two separate identification numbers

2 coats of Polyurethane would be an alternative finish after a coat of stain, and a lot less work !

What is the speed of the motor

Best one ive seen yet!! Everyone tries to put way too much in these vans and u are the 1st one keeping it simple with modular removable components. Bldg a transit connect next year and paln on keeping it simple and light as possible. Just gonna strap a fold up bed so i can remove it and only use a twin when just me and a double when taking a friend. Leaving the other side open for ebikes and paddle boards. The windows are genius to use that extra space. Thanks for the ideas!! Btw if u dont mind how much did this build cost the customer in case i decide i need a tax writoff to have mine built? Gonna double as a fiber splicing van for my buiness. Also how much approximate weight was added with this setup? Thanks.

Excellent video. Thank you

oh btw I assume your dust port is at the bottom of the "box" where all the dust settles naturally?

absolutely gonna do this. thanks so much this is awesome!

Meat grinder 22 manual what is power of motor

Washing machine motor ya think that would work

some good ideas here

Looks like there is no Quick escape option in an emergency

That seems like a lot of work and expense to dispose of an ex-wife.

tech ply? where would you find this? I'm in Wisconsin

I love the curtain on snaps. How hard will it be to pull down quickly if she needs to hop in the front and drive off quickly?

I can’t get past the Papyrus. Kidding. I’m saving this great idea for simple bed support.

👏🏼👏🏼 EXCELLENT build 👍🏼 🚛💨💨 ✌🏼💚🙏🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Nice build! Does it grind bones?

good idea, but you took a $350 motor, put it on a $50 grinder, had a machine shop probably do $50-100 worth of work (most of us don't get a buddy discount), then bought $100-150 in supplies to make a $600 grinder? A lem #10 cost less and can do just a good of a job. I dig the ingenuity, but I don't see the practicality unless you have the motor just laying around.

Am I the only person who know's that's a full size Transit and not the smaller Transit Connect?

Sorry, very dangerous and wrong done!!! A CO-warner at the roof is not right. CO is at the bottom in the car because it is heavyer than air. When you lay down in the middle, you die before the CO warner warns.

Idea is good but NO DEMO???? because it DIDN'T work well???? no telling since never showed it working.

What are the dimensions for this van? Looking to buy a van to convert in a few months but im 5 8” and i wanna be able to sit upright

What was the cost of the project in total???

what size is that variable motor 1 hp ?nice build i really like the foot pedal

Thanks for sharing, good head work!!!

Thank you! I was racking my brain on how to build in supports that weren't 30+ inches long (the distance form the bottom of the foldout table to the floor in my case) and these fold away supports are genius! Can't wait to give this a crack tomorrow!

yours is an ingenious build. I love it!

Definitely would have like to see the process for building the bed. We would like to build this bed platform but to extend to a size larger than twin but not bigger than full. So creative! Any other details, pictures or drawing of the bed that you could provide?

The removable sink is excellent, also that you've set it up to fill from a hose. I can't move a 5 gallon can of water. Fold out bed also excellent. How wide is it folded out? Makes the space seem huge! How wide is the sink? Thanks for sharing. Bummer I don't do instagram.

nice...but dont you think you should cut off the front of the box so you can set a nice big bowl under the grinder to catch the meat?

Can you put a list of the items you added please

Did you make the overhead shelves

Can this set up be used in a Nissan NV 200

Hi do you have plans made for the items in the van because I would really like to set up my van just like this

Good & clean work.

Gloves and loose clothes... but nice project

Why do they put the kitchen on that side it seems like it would bounce around more on the drivers end.

I love the floor design with the drawers underneath. Would you be willing to sell a copy of the plans? Thank you

Nice, neat, clean, and can be removed if you need extra space. But I think the wood you built on top will add more weight to the small engine, and make it work hard on hills plus poor gas mileage. I build mine with the least weight possible. Thank you for sharing some good ideas. I will copy yours and re-do mine, nice.

That bed setup is SA-WEET! 😍

It looks like more free space inside, as other Transit Connect Campervans. And less Plywood inside at the walls = less weight = more fuel Mileage. And so easy to remove the camping parts. Also clever: The subfloor with the drawers = more storage space. I want to do the same at my tiny campervan, now converting. Greetings from sw germany (middle europe) liked + subscribed.

There’s something about this conversion. Maybe because it’s almost “underdone.” It’s the minimum of what you need done very tastefully. I’ve grown tired of seeing how much people can cram into a small space. The small sink makes a huge statement. Really nicely done.
