    What’s the coolest feature of the conversion?

      My favorite features is that the kitchen countertop doubles as a desk, and triples as access to the cooler.

    @GCLehman Před 5 lety +6

    LOTS of great ideas. Thanks for the video.
    I really appreciate that there was a little bit of explanation on how well things worked and why they were chosen (chest fridge/freezer, heater, power bank etc.) that is exactly the kind of information that gets overwhelming in some places. This was simple and to the point.

    Really nice work. Great conversion. My favorite part is the way the plumbing, toilet and stove are all independent units. Makes service and upgrade really easy.

    • @wildsage
      @wildsage  Před 6 lety +1

      Wilderness Field Journal that’s a really good point. Super easy to modify the individual spaces each has.

    I'm more into Class B vans, preferably the Roadtrek 190, but, I have to say this is the BEST step-van conversion I've ever seen! Very professional, clean, not bulky, and, just simply great. Congrats! The ONLY two downsides to this vehicle, imo, are (1.) stealth is out the window pretty much, unless, one would want to paint a 'business' sign on the outside, and, (2.) this vehicle is somewhat crippled when it comes to parking it just ANYwhere. Other than those two things I'd hire you in a heartbeat to build me one! Have a blessed day!

      @LiveUthing Před 6 lety +3

      My Stepvan will park anywhere your Roadtrek 190 or any other Class B fits, but I have way more living space. Nothing stealth about a Class B not even with a business sign, my Stepvan more so. Not that it matters unless you want to park in an industrial area. Any non camper looking vehicle parked along the road would look suspicious.

    • @wildsage
      @wildsage  Před 6 lety +1

      JIM BRIDGES JIM BRIDGES thanks man. Yeah it’s not a stealth camper by any means with an awning and shower on the outside. It actually does have a business decal on the outside still. Definitely not a rugged off-road vehicle but from what I know of the owner, it’s more going to serve as a studio apartment/travel truck than a camper.

      Alan Land .... You Need to see a lot more Videos.. This one has so many impractical things he did. Ex: that desk from the counter top.... Uh no, Why ? Because all sorts of things would be on the counter that would have to be moved, stored, put away. This is just one example of many.

  • @jaimesanchez9207
    @jaimesanchez9207 Před 5 lety +23

    Nice build! An indoor shower would be a welcomed addition. For hygienic reason, the toilet could be relocated in a different spot away from the portable refrigerator. The unstained wood is fantastic.

  • @thoughtsinpassing2968
    @thoughtsinpassing2968 Před 5 lety

    This is the best conversion in a step van I have seen online. Future suggestion that I saw on another was a piano hinge on the bed when in sofa mode, it raised up with storage underneath. Also it didn't appear there was a rail on the shelf above the sofa/bed. Also, the 'dresser' on the end of the couch could house hanging pants and shirts/jackets if there was a pull out hanger that is attached to the ceiling of the short closet. If not wanting to use that space for closet, then slats nailed to the side walls would allow for placement of shelves. The solar hot water pipe on the roof and shower and portable table is genius both of which I have never seen before ! The woodwork and finish looks very professional and I am sure once the wood is finished, tiled backdrop on kitchen area and the plentiful wall space decorated it will be beautiful. THANK YOU for sharing,

  • @annettefournier9655
    @annettefournier9655 Před 6 lety +16

    Very clean lines. Nicely done. Waxing the slats on the bed will make it pull out easier but not make it walk out on it's own. Those wave ceramic heaters are very good but dust will damage the ceramic wires in no time, a good dollar store shower cap to cover the front does the trick. The company will redo the ceramic element if it quits but if you cover the unit when not in use it last a for upwards if ten years. Again ,really nice job!

    • @wildsage
      @wildsage  Před 6 lety +2

      Yeah lots of people have mentioned how dust ruins those things. I'll mention it to the owner! Thanks!

  • @madeinmichigan6773
    @madeinmichigan6773 Před 5 lety +1

    I think it's great in its raw state before paint. I just wanted to point out that the Wave 3 propane heater needs to have a cover over it 24/7 when not in use due to dust collecting on the flame material and eventually could cause a fire or stop working. They are not cheap as you know so to save $ in the future ....a simple dust jacket is great.
    Take care and great job with the entire thing 😊 There isn't anything about this conversion I would change 😊
    Merry Christmas 🎄

    The major explosions from propane tanks in RV’s is driving with tanks open and hooked to appliances, the connection breaks an KA-Boom. Turn off the tank.
    So new, nice ideas, what are you going to get dirty first. Mentions of gas dangers is important, with a carbon detector on the ceiling and a propane 12” off the floor. I’ve got the wave too, a real propane sipper.

  • @brendaswann7292
    @brendaswann7292 Před 5 lety +4

    Good start. Awnings are best curb or right side, thinking cognito road stops. Like the toilet at the back with fold back cover. Next time think of diesel heater ... if running diesel. An exit curb or road side is safest. Good luck with your next project.

Especially from the perspective of a tradesman. I have a much better idea of what I’m going to do with my rig after watching this video! Thanks again. PS: the coolest feature is the outdoor shower option. I spend winters surfing in Mexico and that set up is a must have!

    VERY nice conversion. If I were to do a conversion, this is the way I would do it, and I am known as a critical S.O.B.; I do not like the over-emphasized faux "luxury" some van conversions provide. The piano-key style pullout bed is brilliant. Overall, it is very well thought-out and reliable, with good use of materials. Only caveat I would throw in, is to not trust the propane from leaking -- it is sneaky, lol. Nice.

    • @wildsage

      Yeah I agree. I prefer utility over style but it’s always nice to have both when you can. Yeah the propane has been taken care of. Thanks!

    keep the wave heater sealed up when not using it,,,, dont let dust and dirt get on it or it wont work right. it has to do with the matting inside where the heat is.... dont remember what its called but keep a dust and dirt cover on it when not in use,

    • @wildsage
      @wildsage  Před 6 lety

      Yeah I am hearing dust is a heater killer. We will get that thing covered! Thanks!

  • @LadyTSurvival
    @LadyTSurvival Před 6 lety +4

    if you dont keep a dust cover on that wave heater it will fail because the dust messes with the medium that the propane heats. put at least a big shower cap on it. trust me on the dust thing

  • @danielmalone9742
    @danielmalone9742 Před 2 lety

    As an engineer, I strongly suggest that you have an analysis done on the solar shower pipe to determine if your mounts will hold during a crash. The forces generated on a massive object like that when the van comes to a sudden stop say in a collision are very large and if that thing comes loose you have a fast moving projectile flying down the road. Not only is the pipe heavy but the water in it is heavy add to that the slushy during a crash your pop that thing loose.

      Yeah for sure. Roll ups are almost impossible to insulate and also take up head room.

    Very well done! The only things I'd change, is not having the toilet next to the fridge, and that outside shower needs to be in a locked compartment.

    Very nice. We have a 12' Ford 10 years older, with a Utilimaster body, but it will be our home.

    Well done, put a propane gas alarm in and you can keep the tank inside. Keep broadcasting!!

      Technically you cannot store the propane tank inside, and if your vehicle uses propane appliances you have to have a propane alarm.

    I did a VW camper like this and I must say, very well done... but the wood looks like it is untreated. Raw wood looks and smells lovely, but it's amazing how easily it stains. If it is raw, for your own sake,please hurry up and stain or treat it before it gets marked or damaged. Steve

    Nice, but a word of caution, the ABS water heating will deteriorate in the sun after some time. A coat of black paint will add some protection.

      My brother in law, the guy doing most of the talking, is super talented. Check out the other van he built for himself and my sister. It’s a vid I have called “Sparky the Firetruck”

    EXCELLENT carpentry and very thoughtful build! Only suggestion I have is a larger water supply. Thank you for sharing this!

    • @wildsage
      @wildsage  Před 4 lety

      Yeah a jerry can is not a ton but I’m pretty sure the client was going to lately be parked in his workshop space where he had access to water so large storage wasn’t as necessary.

    They are called Step vans. Reason: makes the delivering job easier by the stepping in and out.
    I'm a huge fan of these wonderful and amazing vehicles. I grew up around them. My dad always had one. He sold ice cream out of them. I love these step vans.
    A box truck looks and is, a Mack/Mercedes truck built, etc. The box(rear) is separated from the cockpit(front end)of truck. Furthermore, the rear box is higher, it is obove the rear tires. This makes a bumpy ride, alright.
    Oppose to the step van it is lower. Making a smooth ride, alright.
    Just wanted to share. I want the correct name of these step vans not to fade away.
    I'm so glad that you chose a step van.
    Goodjob on the Stepvan, though!👍
    Thanx for sharing.

      Yeah I goofed on the name at the beginning of the video because we were also working with a box truck at the time and I misspoke. My brother in law gets it right for the rest of the video though.
