What should I build next? Comment below!
Woohoo, it's done! Sorry for the wait! 2023 is the year that I go Goblin Mode on CZcams, no more waiting 6 months between videos. Thanks to everyone who has shown support, I can't wait to further grow this amazing community :)
thumbs up man, I just found another inspiration
Yo I've been waiting for this video for months thanks bro
U should add a railing up next to the bed so papa don’t get hurt 9:35 and many a shower door but well done I have been waiting for a wile can’t wait for more updates
This is amazing dude! Congrats from Laradise
Don’t worry just been waiting
Man, his dad must be really proud to have a son like him. Doing all this stuff on his own with no training is inspiring for us folks sitting on the couch thinking we can’t do it.
@@darukineo I know I can't, but.....then again, after watching this, ngl, I got very much inspired to wanna try.
But I dont have the brain capacity for it, I cant even assemble ikea chair :(
i could definitely, but i'm waiting to have enough money to buy a van AHAHAHAHAH
@nogerboher5266 Oh sure, scapegoat the average American people for something we wish we could control.
@@nogerboher5266 Your ignorance is astounding for a European. Are you sure you’re not American?
I found the chapters in czcams.com/users/postUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU to be very relevant to my project as I embarked on building my first ever structure from the ground up. I especially found this Ryan’s Shed Plans to be of great use when it came to building the roof. I was able to do all the cuts and installation by myself, with a little reference to this Ryan’s Shed Plans.
This guy is absolutely adorable. I'm old enough to be his mother but I love watching his building videos; it makes me feel like I could do this too. I don't have any personal experience with/\ building big things, but I've always liked putting things together and I'm obsessed with miniature things.
Because of this, the Tiny Living movement really spoke to me, and I need to hear things like "Even if you don't know what you're doing, the best thing to do is just START". I've felt so overwhelmed by all the things I"ll have to do/learn and it paralyzes me; so I've got a 35 ft bus and a 30 ft RV that are both bare, Demo is easy but the rebuilding is where I'm stuck.
Wow!! Good for you!! I feel the same way you do. The difference is that I haven't made efforts to do anything about it. Lol You're already two vehicles way ahead of me!! Good luck to you!! I hope you do a video of your builds at some point! Would love to see what you come up with!!
We all gotta love that David installed the fiberglass by bare hand...
@ChoppyCheese366. Yikes! 😮
I love the way that he says “I’ll learn about that next week” cuz it’s totally and completely possible to do it.. no limits, nothing is holding him back! 😊
Ok thanks ☺️👍
Oh yeah
Lol
Tiny Homes are in the model T phase just imagine with innovation how much they could address the housing crisis.
Watching this project was truly inspiring! Looks so cool!
DANGIE BROS??? IVE BEEN SUBBED SINCE U WERE CAM AND JEFF!! and before Chris's old channel was deleted lol.
Dangie bros?
Wait how? 2 replies? I have never seen a vertified creator without upwards of 50 replies.
u guys are awesome! ive watched every single one of your videos
this thing was dope
Young dude is a genius. Can't imagine doing 1/10 of the work here. Tons of patience and creativity.
This is such a gorgeous build! Also, this is undoubtedly the most entertaining build video ever made! What a great personality and sense of humor! I also love the way he earned the money to pay for his tiny home. Well done!
give yourself some more credit! what you achieved is absolutely insane, it’s amazing.
i’m in awe at this.

You''re work ethic is off the scale! What an incredible achievement. Such an inspiration! Congratulations.
Both his mom and his dad are the cutest🥺
Wow, this suburban vacation cottage video is truly a masterpiece! 🏡💡 Every little corner of the house reflects special care and creativity.
I am especially impressed with how you have utilized every small space to create a comfortable and convenient living space. From the furniture to the kitchen and bathroom corners, everything is designed with intelligence and space saving in mind.
I have construction experience and let me tell you, you have far exceeded my experience by yourself your first time. The layout for the tiny home was very well thought out. Absolutely great use of space and the solar power is 100% what anyone should do when building a tiny home whether it is mobile or not. Fantastic job 👌🏻 I am now a subscriber. I wish I had the money to build my double loft, french door tiny home because I'd contact you to come help me out if possible lol. 🤜🏻🤛🏻
I think it needs a Vapor Barrier on the warm in winter side.
He said they were having snow, so it must be cold.
Condensation could be an issue.
Two coats of Oil paint would act as a vapor barrier.
I love the design he uset
Also in exterior it makes it have a good vibe of natural van
I also have construction experience. Since it's on a trailer exposed to the elements, all the framing should be Pressure Treated. Studs, corners & rafters should be tied down with TECO brackets.

This is type of content that 2M subs CZcamsr would do, the editing, the effort is amazing! You'll be big in no time..
Thanks so much! Means the world and is super encouraging
This is a beautiful tiny home. You are a very intelligent, witty, and hard working young man. God bless you David. You can build these for a living, or consult with people to help them design theirs!
I'm proud of you, some of us didn't get good parents. But, awesome to see everything you do. ❤️
Stumbled upon your tiny house build two weeks ago, and wow it was awesome... seeing it done today it's mind boggling! It looks fantastic and I'm really happy for you. You should definitely drive it around for a year before you Airbnb it and post videos from your journey! :D
Oh, I have plenty of video ideas that include it. Don't even think for a minute this is the last video involving the tiny home.
@@davidmrule I can't wait to see them! Now to re-watch the video, it's so satisfying! 😆
@@davidmrule One thing I did notice throughout your build was you didn't fit any fire extinguishers especially in the kitchen area and in the electronics hub.hope I am not being a Mr know it all its just it would be a shame to see all your hard work go up in flame's because of one simple mistake of not having one .🤔👍
I’m doing my tiny house a little differently- converting an old shed I bought into a house- and both of your videos are super helpful! I love how you simply explain things, especially mentioning names and processes
Please make a video I would love to watch your process
Awesome! Congratulations to you! Enjoy your tiny home!
You are so smart, talented, and hysterical. I don't know when I have enjoyed a build more (maybe because I haven't). Live long and prosper, my friend.
Those heaters have a HUGE history of catching on fire. 😲
I absolutely loved this video! It’s so well done and I can tell you put a lot of work into making it! Way to go David! 11:14am
Ayyyy it's the momma, thank ya!
You have the coolest kiddo Mamma Rule!
@@AmenbrThanks! I totally agree! Think I’ll keep him!😂
Karen, I haven't seen you guys in years! I hope you and Bob are doing well!

It’s so nice to watch a young man work so hard to have something nice. Also your humor is amazing.
I try to be the silliest goose I can be, there's far too many serious geese in our world :)
I have been told many times to never lose my sense of humor. At 76 years young I still have it. That is why everyone tells me I am crazy. Lol
@@brendawilliams8832 Crazy in a good way haha. Also the "crazy" ones are also the happiest !
Hello Brenda how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
love that you didn't add one of those useless sofas area but a proper desktop area to get some work done, one could probably live in one of these for a long time, the shower near the kicthen sink is also a nice touch
David , this small home is beautiful ! You did an awesome job ! I love your personality !
Bro I don’t normally laugh at videos but you had me dying with some of your jokes 🤣 aside from the comedy, the video was super informational and inspiring! So impressive you learned all those skills to build your tiny home!
Thanks man! It’s come a long ways since when you last saw it!
He is literally so unfunny

@@davidmrule , just wonderful David! I ♥this tiny home & you're very funny "big booty babes".😂I even like the fact that kitty made a brief appearance & let's face it "5 yr old David" was adorable. ^_^ It was very entertaining and interesting watching you start with the trailer and make it to this point! Personally I would've wanted a dry toilet but this still works & the fact that you have most everything a small caravan has & yet all of this you built yourself!
It really is inspiring and tho it still costs some $$$, I'm honestly amazed at just how much $$$ it costs to BUY basically a "tiny home on wheels" when many are going for $40,000 to $100,000+ and yet you made your own "tiny home on wheels" for a fraction of that. I ♥the wood/cedar & frankly I like the black exterior color with the wood. To me it looks more like a high-end, custom product. And what a nice print/story with the giraffes & volcano, I wondered about it earlier on obviously not knowing the backstory. Anyway, looking forward to the next video and hopefully 2023 will be a much better year for all of us!
Love that you wired it like a real house to gain the experience.
Like, however life goes, you may end up in a large stationary house, and either building or heavily renovating it
And if you do, this Tiny home can easily still serve as a guesthouse, or RV, or rental, or even house a friend for a bit while they get their feet back under them, without having to have someone stay in your home
this was my fav tiny house build yet - you're hilarious. Thank you for taking us along for the build!
That's amazing how you did all that at your young age. Kids today have so much opportunities that I never had growing up learning all these different things.
You did a great job; you should be really proud. I don't know how many square feet your tiny home is but I do know a number of people just make a wet room for their bathroom to save space. The one thing you might want to invest in is a dehumidifier. If you don't keep the inside dry, the wood you used everywhere else in the house (with the exception of the wood in the shower) will mold, mildew and possibly warp from showering or even boiling water for tea or cooking. I've watched dozens of videos of people who built their own tiny homes and they all highly recommend you run a dehumidifier. Otherwise, your work is excellent and I'm sure you'll enjoy living and working in it.
Yes!!
How do you have only 90k subscribers. You are so talented. I can’t believe you did electrical, plumbing, and heat and air all in. THIS IS AMAZING ❤
He does not ask (beg) for subscribers the way others do. He should.
Well apparently he got 24k subs in less than two weeks
@@ZACATCS true
Outstanding, young man. You did an awesome job. You should be proud of yourself. Keep up the good work.
usually videos are full of negative videos but this dude did a great job and not cringe at all
I don't usually watch a video without skipping (or fast forward it), let alone leave a comment, but it was just really enjoyable from start to finish. This is only my second video of yours that i have watched, so keep it up! I really hope there will be updates of the tiny house in the near future.
Agree I really want to see new videos and this Is my second video of him
Another reason to collect "rain water" is if you end up getting your own washer / dryer for your tiny home, it will save you money in the long run.
Love the vibe im proud of you dude not everyone your age would be interested to build a tiny home keep it up💯💯🤟🏻
David - What an amazing role model for not being daunted by what you don't know how to do. Motivation and persistance got it done. And what a jewel!!
I love the ending how it turned out, and you just put so much effort into it
No way this was your first time building. You did amazing!
Bro when he said 3,2,1 I got an ad and I didn’t know if it was on purpose or not😂 9:24
I got a add to 😂
Same!
Me too lol I think he did it on purpose you can choose where to put ads
me to lol
Bro, this was by far the best tiny home build video ever. Your personality shined and being honest about not knowing how to do anything and literally learning it all from youtube is inspiring.
Holy smokes!!!! This is ammmmmazing and so are you! What a fantastic job you've done of the build annnnd the way you've put this video together in such an educational yet entertaining way. You have an incredible future ahead of you. Your parents must be sooo proud of you. Way to go! All the best from the east coast of Canada to you and yours. Happy travels. 🇨🇦👍🇨🇦
Great work and video David.. Got a safety suggestion for your solar system.. Install a breaker on input to solar controller from solar planels.. match the capacity of the breaker to max output of solar panels.. Also put one on input to inverter from the battery matching the capacity to max current draw of inverter.. This will enable you to isolate the panels and the inverter if when working on your system.
Awesome job! One thing, if you’re going to move around a lot, please check the wheel bearings on the trailer. These are often overlooked and can be a disaster if they fail.
Yes!!!
Turned out awesome, so cozy and warm-feeling. I could never pull off something like this. Just Wow, definitely worth the months long waiting.
Yessss, I'm so stoked. And I guarantee you could seeing as how I did, but it's definitely a commitment. Not for everybody.
Freemassons
Awesome effort. You must be so proud. Congratulations 🎊 on your first home. 👏
What an impressive build! Your parents must be so proud of you! So smart and accomplished at such a young age! You are going to have(already have) such an amazing life! Thanks for sharing with us. Jane in SC ❤🙏
Hey David, thank you so much for taking us along and sharing this experience with you. Your jokes and your editing made this a pleasant video, or let's say movie, to watch. I'm so glad that the first video did so well, so you are already making profit. God bless!
Glad ya liked it!
This is amazing! Im in construction and to see someone with no experience do this makes me really happy cause truthfully anyone who puts there mind to it can also this this. Keep up the great work!
He has to have some experience. His knowledge of how things work in a lot of these areas would be almost impossible for a layperson to just figure out willy nilly.
My guy single handedly beat the housing market crisis
I am 65 and you are so comical and I want a tiny home and have learned a lot from you. Smart young man!
It's good to see someone doing so much with next to no construction experience! I'm aspiring to build out my own van/box truck in the future into a mobile home but the big thing that has concerned me is whether or not I'd struggle with all the construction. Seeing you succeed gives me confidence, thank you for sharing your journey with us!
The moment you painted the exterior with black and matched it with wood, there is only one thing I have in mind, it's so cool!
It made it look like a high-end tiny house!
God bless all the kids with your mentality! I love the black with the wood! Everything' is amazing!
It’s a beautiful small house! You did great for someone who doesn’t know much about building anything, much more a house. 👍🏼
Bro how does this legend only have 100k. He deserves millions for all the work he but into this ❤️
I love everything about this. I am also the son of an engineer (mechanical, not electrical though) and did a box truck build a few years back. I also went into it with no skills, learning as I went. It ended up far, far worse than what I see here lol but it was tons of fun.
You taught me a few things I hadn't learned yet, in a style that suits my garbage attention span. The cabinets especially. Thanks bro!
Just to add to the collective data for anyone reading this considering their own build:
-if insulation is needed in areas where space is at premium, aerogel insulation is the highest R factor by volume that exists, but it is pretty expensive. Might be worth it around the wheel well area to save space, would not be worth it on the main walls/ceiling. For car or cargo van dwellers, it's ideal in the window recesses.
-pex curve brackets instead of right angle connectors reduce friction and possible failure points. I learned this the hard way.
-battery banks on these builds are typically 12v or 24v... converting to 110v will come at some costs of efficiency. Appliances and stuff that are 12v and pull right from the battery bank will save just a smidge of energy. You can even build a tiny gaming pc with a ryzen APU and a 12v pico psu power supply, to avoid the 12v->110v conversion efficiency loss of the inverter and the 110v->12v/5v/3.3v efficiency loss that a PC psu typically has. Similar story with LED lighting, there's a ton of lighting options that natively take 12v input, which both save efficiency loss and eliminates another part that could fail (110v->12v LED driver)
-many RV's come with 'cassette style' toilet and blackwater tank. With these, you can remove the blackwater tank from the outside through an easy hatch, no carrying it through the house. Can be dumped in a toilet at a rest stop if needed. Composting toilet is a valid option, but for those who'd rather go the typical tank way... look for a cassette toilet on fb marketplace or ebay or something. You'll only find used ones that are being parted out from RV's though.
-tile is heavy af and generally not used, but for anyone who wants to use a small amount for a kitchen backsplash, like the glass mosaic tiles, use silicone as the grout, and either the double sided tape style backing to adhere, or silicone. No cement based thinset or grout... it would crack out the first time you move anywhere.
-anywhere there is going to be hot metal near wood, use metal backed fiberglass pipe insulation. It's used on exhaust pipes for on demand heaters. Preventing the wood from reaching ignition temps can make the difference between waking up in the morning or a painful frightening death the night before.
I love this build so much. Well done, man. Well done.
STOP WE ALL HATE PEOPLE LIKE YOU MR. MANY WORDS 😐
Legend, - im gonna use these tips for my own tiny house build which should take me 3 years. Starting this summer.

Watching this project was truly inspiring looks so cool
9:21 I had another surprise for you...

Was looking at one video. Now I'm hooked. So cool how you did all this dude! Mad respect
Probably one of the best videos I've watched in a long time congratulations you've got a great future in whatever you do
Thanks so much! And yeah, still figuring it out but that's encouraging to hear :)
Your dad must be extremely proud of you, I wouldn't be able to do all of that by my self. Awesome vid
Amazing, you should be very proud of what you have accomplished. Gives me hope for the future. I hope you inspire others.
As a geography nerd....
I'm in love with that map on your wall. 😍😍😍
My Goblin, you freaking killed it. I am so unbelievably proud of you and all your awesome-ness. Keep being the coolest goblin around ❤️
The story of the little goblin who could. Thank youuuuuuu Brooke
Congrats to your dad man he definitely showed you support and allowed you to to do trail and error keep it up and make sure you tell your dad thanks for just being there
This is the future for people who want freedom. A tiny house and an electric bicycle. That is all that is needed. PS. I am also deep into Ryobi tools. Great selection used at my off the grid 15 acre nature retreat in Northern MN. Love it. $15,000? You pay for it the first two years you live there saving on rent.
Amazing honestly amazing. I can't believe you built it and have never done anything like before it. I mean twice the size and you would have an actual home I'd live in but if you're happy then live it.
Glad your back. Your 'can do' attitude and trail blazing into learning new skills, without fuss is bloody impressive. Loving this one. Congrats.
Thanks a ton!
I first watched the original build video right after it came out and was immediately obsessed with tiny home and vanlife videos and now 7 months later I have a plan to make my dreams a reality! Thanks man
Your sense of humor is almost as good as the tiny house. Congrats on the build! Cheers from Croatia :)
Thanks so much! Also, Croatia is one of my favorite countries I’ve ever been to!
Finally an honest person.. when talking about the real cost!!
Ive watched manyyyy tiny home builds and this one might be my fave !!!!! It has that simple feel to it while still being really practical and beautiful. Well done !!!
This is what I'm talking about! Tiny homes run up to 200,000.
They started out @15,000. Thank you so much! We'll never have a tiny home but hopefully others will see this & realize you don't have to spend 50,000.
I think people prey on some folks inability to hunt down a bargain. I love tiny homes for the footprint but you can get a used manufactured home down here in Mississippi for around that price. People can definitely get a nice home for less than $50k. The Boxabl Casita sells for around that but looks to come pretty ready to sail from what I've seen.
He did an amazing job of breaking the work down and I think the knowledge gained is priceless. I think corporations are going to make it increasingly harder for 1st time homeowners to purchase starter homes until everyone is renting. If you do the math, the real estate on the earth is finite as our population continues to grow. Owning you some land should be a consistent conquest before this sorta thing happens. Kudos to you for starting at such a young age. 💯
The world needs more people like you
Dang dude...It makes me wanna make one. I used to love architecture, so watching these vids is helping me learn a lot!
Mannn!! Loved everything about it. You have a unique way to make your videos fun, entertaining and connect with people at the same time. This video was also educational, it teaches how to be autonomous and realize that you have so much more creative power than you believe you have.
What a fantastic end product! And you will continue to reap benefits for years! My granddaughter and I built a tiny house for her. She's moving in this month. Thankyou for taking us on the journey!
Wonderful job. Looks very functional and goog looking too. Surely you have inspired thousands! Congratulations!
Young man. The word intelligent is not sufficient to say. I’m 72 and I praise. Great job
From musician to CZcamsr, this is amazing! I've stayed in a tiny house with my fam before, so seeing one actually being created is awesome! Can't wait to see your channel grow!
This is entertaining, informative and motivating. You probably could host a series about ppl who build their own homes all over...but for real this is incredible
The interior of the small house is unique and interesting, you have creative decoration ideas
This is so beautiful. You made me happy cause you made sure it has everything. I could certainly live there. Love your channel.
New subscriber here! I love your tiny house but especially your sense of humor! You young man are awesome. So proud of you for doing this on your own and learning on your own! Way to go!
Hey dude! I am from Bangladesh. I saw your previous video about this Tiny home. You was making the frame and others stuffs. Believe me or not , I was waiting for this to be done. Today you have done it. Yeah you have made it. You have completed your dream. I, myself also dream for having this kind of life. But as being an ordinary Asian kid, it won't be possible here. Mass population, peoples mentality, ability to afford, lands for camping etc.. are the main obstacles. But seeing you doing this is another level of satisfaction. Best of luck.
Aww thanks so much for the support! And I bet, I'm definitely fortunate having grown up where I did. I'm currently in southeast asia and there's plenty of areas around here where tiny homes wouldn't work. Glad you liked it!
Try doing it on a boat/ship near Sundoorbons. You can connect more boats or upper levels as you get more money. I think someone did something similar and made it into an Airbnb, but I forgot the name.
Wow. I loved your video on building the outside of the home. But you were brave to put the electrical equipment together with no experience without electrocuting yourself. Great Job!
you'd be a great teacher...such smarts, energy, communication skills and humor.
you are a super talented person like you made a tiny home, electrical work and everything all on your own which i found absolutely incredible.
Keep up the good work ❤
I've been waiting months for this! Looks great!
Thanks so much! Sorry for the wait haha
You built a wonderful, beautiful and flexible small house that can be moved anywhere.
Build again this was way relaxing and calming
Amazing video of an amazing project, David! Thanks for sharing your journey to build your tiny home.
I love tiny homes and love how you organised this, it's completely amazing
