In this video, we take you through the entire build process from the very start. If you would like to build a camper like this yourself, I've made a whole in-depth series on all to do with this build which you can watch here, feel free to send us your photos!:
• How To Convert/Build A...
If you like my music and would like to hear some on your next road trip, then you can listen to my first album on Spotify here: spoti.fi/2AuT9KK
or follow this link to pick up a physical copy of that album 'Keep On Running' - joeedwards.co.uk/music-store
Also, for a bit of fun, you can watch me whizzing around the highlands on a 1970's moped during the music video for the title track 'Keep On Running' :D : bit.ly/2yZlQz9
Below are some links to both the tools I used to complete the conversion as well as many of the parts used such as hob units, solar panels, split charge relay etc. Let me know if there’s anything else you’d like to know about. They are affiliated links but you won’t be charged any extra for using them, they’ll just allocate a small percentage of the original sale price to the channel which will help to keep projects up and running, thanks in advance for your support and as always, let us know if you have any questions, happy building!

Joe - Jak na to + styl
That man is not just a musician. He is a carpenter, electrician, and an engineer. Brilliant ✌🏻
A real nice man
After watching my husband do amazing woodwork for 20 years, I have to say this is incredibly impressive!
Also after watching hundreds of van builds on YT, this has to be the best I've ever seen.
Beautiful.
I said the same thing 😁 Perfection.
He is both a tailor, an engineer, an architect and a carpenter. A magnificent design. The most enjoyable thing is that you will be able to say that I did all this! 🎉💖
Many people build nice interiors. This guy had all the tools and machines to help make his work exceptionaly nice. But what he had which many builders don't have is the brilliant imagination to create such beautiful artistic work.
Can't imagine how skilled a musician this guy must be, based on the attention to detail!
Was thinking more or less the same. Impressive!
That was i thinking....
Wasn't that his music playing ??
I started watching your videos....and three hours later! I have never seen this much skill in one human! You have a vision...and you bring it to life! WOW! Thank you for sharing your wonderful talents! I am blown away! 🔧🪚🔨🛠🪛⚙️🪤✂️📝✏️🎸🎤🥁🚐💨🌦❄️🌍🌎🌏
I very rarely comment on people's videos, however, this is incredible, given its all handmade, repurposing materials and in such a small space, is pure genius. Your skills and finishing touches are on point. Enjoy using the van
Without a doubt, and I've watch countless hours of van build videos, this is the very best 'how to' video around. Pretty much everything is covered. Thank you SO much.
Talent isn't even enough of a word to explain the what you have... You are truly blessed! Thank you for sharing your blessings with the world🙏🏼💞
The absolute talent in this gentleman is astounding as is the design and execution of this gorgeous van. ❤
If his music is anything like his skills here, he's got to be pretty awesome!
Love the build!
This is a video of a man pouring his heart out. Beautiful van build video.
Once a creative in 1 area ...then.creative other areas. You have a creative/artistic soul & know how to finish jobs!
Wow!! your work is so detailed, clean and precise. Everything you do is like you are making a piece of artwork, so meticulous and well thought out. Every little process is interesting to watch!! The build turned out gorgeous!!
Is there anything you can't do? This is so beautiful.
Agreed! When he began working on the curtains, I thought, "Of COURSE he can sew too - unreal!"
Amazing, right🎉
The most interesting, most talented, best quality build and best put together video that I have seen for a long time. Loved it. Well done!
I have now watched approximately 500 + van builds/tours and there have been a couple that I place in my top 20, haven't seen many uk ones but this has to be in there one of my top 5, this guy is epic, some lady is going to be snapping him up if they haven't already.
Carpentry, electrical, sewing, design and just the patience of the man and he's a dog lover too.
What more could you ask for, looks like he's pretty tidy as well.
Just waiting for the van tour now and following him on his travels.
Stay safe and keep the music flowing as I've just purchased your 💿
very impressive, everything homemade, every cable, every box, every shelf, every fabric, every eyelet and such beautiful, loving, creative details. This is probably not your first camper expansion. You are a craftsman with body and soul, something really impressed me, I couldn't stop watching the development. Thanks for your contribution! Greetings, Ramona
This is one of best van built I have seen, and I have looked at many.
Is there anything this guy doesn’t know how to do? So skilful I’m seriously impressed. Musician, artist (all those personal touches in the van) and you even know how to use a sewing machine. Very inspiring! Interested in how you grew up with so many talents? (I’m new to this mother hood gig and would live my son to be just as well rounded - your mum must be proud!) 😊
The fact that he is a musician, with set of skills of electrician, carpentry, bodywork, tailoring, plumbing, interior design, and whatnot.
I said the same thing! 😮 Beautiful build!
The most beautiful small van conversion I have EVER seen! Is there anything this man cannot do?! 🤯🤯
Tnx for idea..
Amazing, couldn't believe your skills next to your age doing it all yourself. The things you come up with inspire me hugely. I would buy the thing in a heartbeat.
I confess that most of the time I skip to the end of the video to see the finished product. But I was mesmerized by all of your talent and creativeness!
Amazing, perfection, meticulous, clean, phenomenal, fun, energetic, craftsmanship, functionality as well as a work of art! Simply AMAZING!!!
Agree. Looks great.
Have never seen such artisanship ever. Best detailed build out on CZcams ever.
UHu
a true artist with so much love for the most sweetest details! loved any second and am all over the moon! thank you so much 😍🦋🙏🏻🧘🏼♀️🦙🌙
I have watched a lot of van builds but that my friend is an absolute work of art.
Stunning design & exquisite craftsmanship . I especially adore the copper sink and pump. One heck of a talented guy!
The craftsmanship and care he put into this build is incredible! Super impressed!
You are the minimalist big male ant. Great job for such a tiny space... You are amazing is a pleasure to see you do the work and a learning experience...
Amazing. Well done. My god u put me to shame, YOU ARE TRULY A ARTIST
He's clever, creative and talented and the final product is proof that he is. But, there is no way I would want to replicate what he did. Good luck to him.
What he does is not easy. It can be done but it would take a very long time if you did this and not have the skills he has .
His attention to details is amazing! Exquisite work and the end product is enviable.
Absolutely stunning! A man of many talents. What craftsmanship! Love it! ❤️❤️
It looks amazing. You're very talent in every area of the construction of this Camper Van, as a carpenter, electrician, artist and even sewer. I can see you put your heart into every corner of this van.
Wow this is SO awesome. What an incredible all rounder you are Joe and a wonderful musician to boot. I had a feeling when watching this van build vlog that you were a blues musician with a bit of country blues thrown in. You have a wonderful colour pallet in the van and some really quirky ideas. Love the Moroccan tiles splash back and all the little nooks and crannies of storage. How did you become so accomplished at so many things?!! All you need is a little telescopic foldable ladder and you could sit up on your roof rack and watch the sun go down! Happy Travelling when you can, been rather restrictive in the UK I gather from my sister. We have had it much better than you here in Perth Australia even having music festivals again so we've been pretty lucky. Just a few short lockdowns, however not short as far as my son is concerned who has lost a lot of money like you must have done as he is a producer DJ and the last to be allowed back to work.
Thank you for taking the time to share your talent!
Hats off to this amazing gentleman. I'm in the half of this video and I'm speechless. Bravo. You are a real talented person. You make my day. Great and professional video. Thanks a lot. God bless you. You make think to build a small van like yours. Thanks once again.
Amazing ! Excellent workmanship. The carpentry was really interesting to watch. It came out super cute!
#1. Thank you for showing the whole process. I love seeing finished products but that doesn’t help me learn how to do it myself which is my end goal. This was very informative!
#2. Your skill sets are incredible!!! I consider myself to be a bit of a Jane of all trades but you, Sir, are a Master!!
#3. You have impeccable taste!!
I've watched so many videos on van build on CZcams and by far this is the most cleanest built!
I’m blown away! Absolutely the best build, you should be proud of yourself 💫 thank you for sharing
wow ... I was speechless, what a job ... Smallest parts that were put together with a lot of love. Respect and I really like this fine English style! I wish you the best of luck and a good camping year. The music sounds good too, by the way :)
Greetings from Germany, Tom :)
You’ve got mad carpentry skills and it doesn’t seem to be your primary profession. You must be an awesome musician too! Beautiful camper van! Thanks for posting a video so enjoyable to watch☺️
I've probably watched 100 van builds, and I must say, this by far my FAVORITE. Attention to detail, the colors, didn't miss anything. Fantastic! Safe travels and happy trails! 🛣️
Congratulations you are the first one show how, to do a caravan since 0 until finish, thanks for sharing with other people, you have onether suscripción from now on.
Your the most talented van builder I've watched. All the best on your journey. I'm sure I couldn't do all that with such details...😊
What a very talented guy you are !! I’m in awe of your expertise!!
Absolutely brilliant, by far the best and most creative build I've seen. Something you can be very proud of building.
Part artist, part genius, part master craftsman. Beautiful work. Thank you.
Oh! my man, this was fantastic time spent watching you doing this work. I love how multi-skilled you are and how creative you got with all the little details. The outcome is outstanding! I hope to see you one day on the road. Take care!
Watching this was far more enjoyable and educational, relaxing and wholesome than wasting time sitting in front of any movie out there today. Thank you, this is my very most favorite van build. Absolutely inspiring. I mean that literally as well as figuratively. 🎁 Love the dog scenes, the gigantic jug of Gorilla wood glue, and the endless array of Makita tools. Skills off the chain, talent abounding. What a wonderful demonstration of God's reflection. XoxoX Trusting Peace, Love, Happiness, Health, Wisdom and Prosperity to always be with you. Warmly, Ellery ❤
❤ The swivel front seats with an expanding table in between!! GENIUS!! 🥂
Wow - Single-handedly & it is done with such love...
Apart from being neat& creative, he is lucky to have all the electric tools needed
I was thinking the same thing. He had every single tool he could possibly need and they were all brand new !! Must be nice.
Absolutely floored! You my friend are a man of many talents. Don't give up on anything you do, you were born to be a success. Your craftsmanship is unique and hard to find in todays world. Much Love and Prosperity my friend. New subbie due to this video.
You know what i like the most from your video? The imperfections of the stuffs you build!!! Like how you messed up the door size, how you put the door knob unsymmetrical to each other. How sometimes the camera was over exposed. The overuse of Quick Grip. Everything in this video is so human. The woodwork really depicts us as non-carpenter guy doing oour work in simple carpentry. We all do almost the same with this guy when we work on some project with very basic knowledge.
Las herramientas y el ser detallista nos ayuda a todos los que queremos hacer algo y tú lo demuestras con tu trabajo,precioso proyecto
Wow! So impressed with this. I loved the music and the craftsmanship. A beautiful result altogether!
You are Multi talented building your beautiful van project and you sing. I could watch you build all day! Congratulations on making your album! 👍
Was going to write something complimentary but as I scrolled down the previous comments I realize that nothing more needs to be said. EXCEPT, . . . . I'd like to 'thumbs up' the flip flops, and the guest appearances of the dog! Bravo and bravo.
Congratulations!
Video music the actually adds to the watching enjoyment!
One of the few build videos I really enjoyed watching, great music too.
Me too. Some are boring.
I just love your eye for detail! Enjoyed every second of footage. Thank you so much!
i've owned 3 of these tiny vans many moons ago,wish i'd have kept at least one to try and replicate your superb build..
the MOST beautiful van I have seen in 5 years of research. YOU are SO TALENTED.
Wao, este chico es multifacético! Fantástico video, nada más regocijante que lograr tus sueños con tu propio esfuerzo. A viajar!
Very amazing! Love everything you built. So incredibly lucky to have so much knowledge. So talented! Thanks for sharing. Best to you always!
You are absolutely amazing; your talent is second to none!! Great job!!
I love the little added touches. The stencil and the ‘flames’. Very cool!
Great, meticulous workmanship with a wonderful aesthetic ... and what a cracking surprise at the end to find you released an album. I took a listen on Spotify and would recommend it to anyone ... the exquisite attention to detail in the production is just as obvious as that which I see in your van build. Congratulations
Simplesmente sensacional, maravilhosa construção, congratulations
Is there anything you can not do? You got so much of godliness qualities in you that make it seem like you can do everything! You are humble, gently spirited, dedicated/devoted, hard work, patient, creative, cleanliness, multi-talented! May God continue to bless you always - thanks for sharing!
Gosh! I really like the finish product. Been watching it several times. But when I saw the entire process how he do it, I felll inlove already.😍 What a bunch of talent, creativity. Kudos!
I am so impressed with your build, and your music. Great on both accounts.
wow love it so cute and perfect setup i could live in there easy🙏🤗
This young man is just fantastic! Enjoyed this video more than any other I’ve seen so far. You can observe he has knowledge of many other trades. The average person will not be able to build a camper such as he did. This young man has dedicated himself to learn and do things instead of drugs and alcohol. Can you imagine how much better this world would be if all our children would dedicate themselves to learn and be productive. We would be living in a much better world. God bless this young man and others like him.
I am so amazed by watching you. I have been an electronics technician and a woodworker. You did an amazing job! 👏 #so impressed
Amazing talent! Beautiful attention to detail!
I love this van so much. I wish it was for sale!
That man is a Swiss Army 🔪🔧🔨⚒🛠⛏🪛🪚🪓 very well done job. U must be proud of yourself 👏
Amazimg work, he is so well equipped such high finishing qualities! The men I know can’t even put a picture on the wall.
You are one talented guy congrats on your build and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.👊👣🎊
You seriously have some mad skills dude! Loved watching your creation
This is the cutest, most thought out little camper and inky one of seen use the front seats with table, love splash back, all the small touches make it amazing. Lovely soundtrack at the end
You are so talented. I haven’t had such fun watching a van build ever! Wish you were here to guide me through building out my van before I hit the road next month.
Outstanding job! Great organization and attention to detail! I would to have a build made by you!
Truly amazing, impressed with every second.. You are an absolute talent in every sense. I wish all the best. Btw, I would have expected you to draw the tile figures yourself though :)
You fascinated me with your knowledge of cabinetry, electric, etc etc etc! Truly amazing video. Thanks for sharing it.
Someday, after you retire from your successful music career, no doubt you can also have a successful career building off grid vans......
Your work is impeccable!
You're brilliant. Your skills are amazing and this video was fascinating to watch.
Kudos to your editor too!
What a freakin killer van. You're an unbelievable craftsman.
AND A MUSICIAN TOO??! WOW
Gorgeous build out on such a cute little van. Absolutely live it! Love your sounds too! Looking forward to hearing more! 😊
Impressive! Carpentry, electrical, plumbing, sewing, artistry. Is their anything you can't do?
Such a beautiful project, congrats ! Enjoy and thanks to share it with us !
Just unreal… wow! Unbelievable work done here! And the music is cool too. What a multitalent! 💓🙌🏻🙏
Great music section. You build every single thing. I guess you want to get your hands dirty. For me, I just buy some things in the store.
And he also likes flowers. Great sense of beauty. Love your cosy camper. Wish you wonderful adventures.
And then you started SEWING!!!!!! super job x
Why would anybody give this a thumbs down. What a bunch of jerks. The VAN looks absolutely awesome. You worked your butt off and it paid off. Great quality design and carpentry. Very meticulous. Thumbs up!!!!
Thank you for this well filmed journey of ur van build. Much appreciated.
I absolutely loved watching your graceful talented hands and listening to your music.
God Bless you. I see the passion you put into everything you build.
A symphony of delights ✨thank you 😎
