  • New project!! We will be building out a 2021 Dodge Promaster 2500 159 inch wheel base van and turning it into a beautiful tiny home on wheels.
    I have built a sailboat, a dinghy, two teardrops and an RV. What better way to combine all builds into one, than to build out a van and enjoy many travels!
    Journey with me as I put my skills to the test and turn an ordinary cargo van into a luxurious dwelling place on wheels!
    We will compliment this van with a full size bed, bench seating for two, running water, full electric, propane cooking appliances, lights throughout, outside shower, and top it off with solar power to run everything. And to add that extra flare… we will do it in BATMAN style!
    I hope to see you until the end when we will do a complete tour of the finished van. I hope you like it!

    "I'm not a professional" Now that's funny! Your workmanship says different my friend!

    I'd say it's not the lazy people who figure out the easy way, but the smart ones! 😊⭐️🏆

    The cabinet is looking great, also how you demonstrated your process in building the cabinet and latches, also struts excellent work.

    Oh man, I would have liked to have gas struts like that but had zero confidence in installing them. You make it look easy. Great craftsmanship. The custom clamping jigs you made are cool too.Look forward to the next video.

    Well needed video: installing instructions for those struts are such a crap! Good job!

      Thank you! I was fearing I'd have holes all over the place trying to position them... figured it out and all went well!

      Thanks Dan! Real happy with the way they turned out! Hope you agree when you see them installed! Cheers!

    Thanks for taking the time to break everything down. What was the deciding factor between those ball bearing latches vs. magnets or the nylon rv latches?

    • @OregonBatman
      @OregonBatman  Před 3 lety

      The fact they take up less room and are all metal (no plastic parts) was a big deciding factor for me, plus they are pretty strong

    I like your dart board. I used to have one very much like that. Mine was two sided with a different pattern on the back side. Is yours like that?

      I saw that... I went to go reply and it was gone, thought maybe you took it down. Might have been the link they didn't like! At any rate, what was funny though is you nailed it... purchased those handles about two weeks before your post! :) They are installed and lookin' gooooood!

      @@OregonBatman They probably didn't like the link. I didn't take it down. Pretty funny though you already bought them. Fits the theme. Looking forward to seeing them in a future video. 👍🏻
