- The van finally begins to take shape from a shell into something more, watch us build out framing, our water system, install a heater, insulate the ceiling and begin installing the wall paneling.

Wow looking amazing.
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi , I found this video by accident! This is amazing. I also have a camper van like yours being conversion in China. Thanks for the video, it gave me a lot of inspiration！
Glad you enjoyed!! Best of luck with yours!
Father and Daughter bonding, and on the job learning. Way to go. It's something I wish I had with my own kids.
I love that you are teaching her as she does it. This will give her knowledge she never knew she needed. Well done!
This is a great series, its coming together great.
Thanks ,Take care.
Looks like the van build is going great! Being its a Promaster and not a Sprinter is the overall weight going to be an issue? All that wood looks like it will add up in the end. One of the CZcams van builders I follow using Sprinter vans, Adys and Eddie, use aluminum for most of the interior structural work. The Chinese diesel heaters are great. I have one in my boat. I bought the 'Afterburner' control unit from Ray Jones in Australia. You can control it via bluetooth or wifi with your phone.
We've heard about those control units, sounds pretty cool! This one came with a little remote that seems to work well. Overall, I think we did pretty well on the weight - all of the wood is cedar, so pretty light overall. Heaviest item is probably the water tank when it's full.
Yep build out inteiours is no joke..
For sure!
Nice! I’m planning on putting that same heater in my bus!
Love this series!
Great detail work!
Thanks!
Can I ask what brand of sensor did you use for the water tank and are you happy with it? SV Cariba
I don't know what the RV world likes, but a company named Efector makes a wide range of sensors.
We used this one amzn.to/35TAGDM -no issues with it so far!
I doubt you can beat $40 from Amazon but here is the Efector level info. Typically plastic or Teflon with no moving parts. Some require plastic tank, some require metal tank. Depends on grounding.

Now you know why the interior work is the most expensive part of a boat build.
For sure!! Some fine craftsmanship goes into boats for sure... and. I thing square or level!
Where you going to store the pressure cooker
Haha, good question! This van build is for Siena - thinking she is going to try something like an instapot
That is just a fancy one. She going to travle America and YT it?
:)
Hi, y'all! I'm glad to see you in videos again! When I tried to start a Captain Who sailing channel, you invited me to come sail a bit with you, which I appreciated very much. My mental health wasn't (and isn't) suitable for traveling much, though, so I reluctantly had to decline. I was also unable to go sailing much, so I didn't keep going with my Captain Who channel. However, I found something else to do, and make a CZcams channel around, which doesn't require me to do any traveling: Treadmill Sprinter (www.TreadmillSprinter.com redirects to my CZcams channel). It may not be something you're interested in, but if you have eclectic interests, maybe you'll like it. And I just released a lighthearted Treadmill Halloween Masquerade video a couple of days ago.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your van building videos!
Your video link is not working :(
@@donaldcheatham Thanks for letting me know, Donald. I have edited it with a different link. I don't know what was wrong with the first one.
Hey there, very cool and different videos and nice editing skills! 👍😬 It gave is a smile!
@@AdventureAdriftSailing If my health recovers enough to do any serious sailing, I'll have to figure out how to put a treadmill on a sailboat!
