- VOLKSWAGEN CADDY MAXI KITCHEN
Made from all stainless steel this kitchen, although simple, is clever in it’s design. It takes up minimal space, hanging off the barn doors, but still does everything you need from food preparation, cooking and storage. I was particularly proud of my double baking tray idea giving an extra moveable chopping board workspace. The RidgeMonkey stove and cookware are perfect for in a small camper especially with the adjustable legs to balance the pot:

Everytime "Yorkshire" is mentioned, i just wait if Harry Enfields Yorkshireman appears😂 That bloke is something else...
😂 a comedy legend.
The van "it quells, tells, hells bells, miss-spells, knocks me on my knees. You've done a good job, bob on, kettle on, have a cup of tea. Once your out-bound, leave town, with Bluie, you'll be in good company." Nice whistling.
😂 brilliant!!! It’s a great song👊
If you didn't smash that "LIKE" button even before watching this video. You need to step up your game for this fine content creator!!!!!
👊 you keep telling everyone 😉. Thanks buddy👍👍👍
@@BUSHMANandBLUE You know it!!!!
You are good at van conversions, you try your best at being meticulous. You could make a living doing that for others, but also film the process for your youtube channel. It's been fun to watch you fit out your van and there are more camping channels than anything else. Of course you will still need to have adventures with Blue on video.
I probably could do bespoke van builds but I’d take too long and not make enough money. Filming it and making videos is making me next to nothing but I love it. 😬
@BUSHMANandBLUE you would probably get more lucrative sponsorships on van builds too. As you do more and more, you will learn what matters and get quicker and quicker. It is still about making videos, but someone is paying you for the van build at the same time as you are making the video, nobody pays you for the walk up the hill.
True mate very true👍👍👍
Renaissance Man! I was hoping that I didn’t miss this part. You did not disappoint! Hoping that you’ll show the next part of this genius build. Amazing!
It took some time but it’s definitely come out well… more to come!
Love your ingenuity. Simple and effective. And your van looks cool 👍
Absolutely brilliant, Love how you made the tiny kitchen, Fantastic 👍
those back doors are brilliant...... think i need another van
You guys are an inspiration in spontaneity, optimism, bravery and happiness. Good luck with making the best decision for your future. xxx
Al, mate, that's awesome ! the Ridge Monkey cooking set up looks like the dogs bollocks, genius stuff. How about a roll out canopy from the roof out over the back doors for cooking in the rain? love all your vids.And just an fyi for all those punters at home who might be doing something similar :- not all types of stainless steel are magnetic.
The RidgeMonkey cooking gear works really well for that size of camper… any camper really. Yes that’s true with the magnetic. The actual back plates aren’t and I wish they were. Thanks Dave👊
That is quality, really starting to look like a nice home from home
so proud of you; knew you would knock it out of the park! can't wait for all your adventures with Blue.
Amazing well done, i am going to be going back and watching it all over again
Brilliant work and design Al ! Inspired build with quality product, will always be a winner! Bravo....👌
The Ridgemonkey cooking range is quite good, I have some of it, used when I go fishing.
The adjustable legs on the quad connect stove are perfect for a van that is never flat👌.
Brilliant Design of the "kitchen" Have I missed a full van tour somewhere. Cheers from Canada.
No I’ll do a full van tour this summer
Mate that is a proper little top notch kitchen area. Does exactly what it says on the tin and it fits perfectly with your van. Very impressed mate.
Thanks. Small and simple always works😉
The kitchen set up is so clever, I’ll definitely take inspiration from this
It does work well😬
I am so impressed with your van conversion, so well thought out and such perfection!
Thanks Jan. I love designing 😬
Absolutely love the kitchen!!! This is briljant. Well done ❤
Super impressive van conversion,Top job love watching you and blue,but your van interior build is superb,look forward to your next vid.
Another great job well done mate...Thought when i started watching the video, id missed a episode or 2, lol...Nice one B and B 🙂
Awesome set up interesting and therapeutic to watch. Some video editing was involved too
I see the kayak has made it on the roof 👍
Took mine to Ullswater and Loch ness last week,loved it up there. That van is going to bring you hours of happiness😊
Yes I kayaked loads last week on Mull👌
Omg look at those herbs and spices 🎉
It’s a great little container set😬
@@BUSHMANandBLUE have you filled them all? what with?
It looks brilliant, can’t wait to see it being used but you need a little awning/tarp over the back doors so you can still cook if it’s raining ♥️👍
I’m on with it😉
Absolutely brilliant and love the Ridge Monkey kit!
All ways watched your channel, when life allows me some peace and quiet to do so 😂 but I haven’t really followed the van build but will be watching the videos back and catching up, the thought you put into that little kitchen is shit hot mate well done lad ✌️
Thanks mate. The van build vids have gone down well as I try explain why I’m doing what I’m doing. Worth all the effort too😬
You are quite literally the Bob Ross of Van Camping construction, Al! I don't understand half of what you're doing but have enjoyed every minute of this vid series - watching such creativity and engineering is surprisingly relaxing! 🤣 Measure twice, cut once and bob on!!! 😎👌 Miss Bluie dog, though 🥰
😂 well really designing and making things is what I’m best at in life. I love being creative and problem solving 😬
Get a ridgemonkey grill they r brill
It's looking really good Al.
Beautiful intelligent craftsmanship
Hi Al, the van looking great and ingenious use of space. Good to see you checked out RidgeMonkey products, as I said a must have for every campervan 🙂. their gear is great quality and a good price. Looking forward to the first van trip and putting the van through its paces, hope its all you were expecting 👍😊
The van worked perfectly! I am well happy with it and the RidgeMonkey gear just adds to it👌
great stuff
Work of art.
Blue has turned red
Brilliant job looking forward to seeing it out on adventures
Wow, excellent!
That is brilliant, I love your attention to detail.
Absolutely brilliant. The ideas are great and you think everything through before executing it. Inspiring. Looking forward to seeing the van finished and in use.
Cheers Steve. I’ve had a week on Mull testing it and it’s awesome👌
Yay, finally🤩. Feels like forever!
Awesome hacks great kitchen set up.
...and a fantastic cooker system. Nice one!
Very cool set up. Looking forward to following your adventures!
looking good
Awesome video
nice set up
Brilliant !!!
Great build Al, looking really cool. Enjoy your van life 😎
Bravo man
Awesome video dude 🔥🔥🔥
Wow! Such an ingenious design. If I could think of one idea would be an awning or tarp over the back doors in case of rain or whatever the British isles throw your way. I’ve missed your videos so hope you dont stop anytime soon. Maybe not try to make CZcams a full time job but mix with other projects??
Thanks. I’m designing a tarp for definite. 😉
mint mate proper tidy job
I use a tarp over my swing out doors flop over the rear roof held down on roof ans side with several strong magnets when I want to use the open-rear in the rain. Again, your great imagination, skills, athleticism puts all other youtubers to shame!
Thanks bud. I just enjoy designing and making thinks and I’m on with a tarp cover😉
Love your attention to detail!
Great idea! Keep up the good work:)
Looks the real thing 👍👍👍😊
Cracking vid. Excellent for innovators, some great ideas here.
Genius, almost wish I had barn doors instead of a tailgate. Tail tent would just top it off... very well done sir.
Yes it’s a toss up between the two. I think I prefer barn doors especially once I make a canopy to go over them😉
Absolutely love this. Add southwest Scotland to your travel list 💙
Nice van
can see your loving it mate , youve done well with the camper.
This is incredible! Really innovative ideas and super slick. Great video as usual! 😄
Attention to detail is lit
Ingenious design solutions. Brilliant.
Thanks mate… more ideas to come😉
Oh YES...! Nothing less than inspiration dude, much luv & best wishes.,..👍✔️💯🙂🙏...
Exponential genius at work , Im loving every second of it !
aww love it wee just bk from torsion and applecross last night great it absolutely brilliant love it 👍👍
Very cool cookset Al 😎👍😉 loving how you've kitted it out, I've done a Peugeot 208 with a kitchen in the boot with a sink and tap and work top plus fridge freezer and a Tentbox Lite on top 😎👍 I'll have to get it on CZcams soon... It'll be ready for our France and Switzerland and Italy trip in July... Love it how you think out of the box Al ... My girlfriend always says it to me lol ... Great vid 👍
Best way to be thinking outside the box and apparently many people can’t. Enjoy your travels buddy👊
Brilliant Al. Been using the Ridgemonkey stuff for a while. Really good for the money. Some clever ideas there mate
Thanks Paul👊. I love designing and making things. RidgeMonkey is the perfect gear for in the van👌
Yorkshire tea, best tea in the world!
Terrific!!!
It all looks so "simple" when it's finished, but it sure takes a lot of planning and hard work. Wishing you many tasty meals made in that kitchen, and many wonderful adventures in your van.
It’s always the case where most of the work you do is covered up. I’m well happy with the result though😬. Thanks Jan.
Some genius ideas!
I love the Kitchen table set-up! Some very innovative uses of every day items!
Thanks Ron. It’s from ikea. I can’t remember the name of it
Nice one Al, brilliant. Love the Ridge Monkey set, covers all eventualities.
Rock on, atb!
The RidgeMonkey gear is spot on for what I need. Love it!👊
there was a recall on them that stove due to them leaking gas a catching things on fire so be careful its not old stock, great kitchen set up buddy 👌
I think they sorted the issue.
I was fascinated with the creativity of your back door base that folds out for your kitchen. Loved the matching square pots/pans that fit on the square burner. A lot of others are going to duplicate what you've come up with. I like how you can hang your water from either door, easy access when needed for cooking. Good on ya, Al.
Sadly, you could use all that space for Coffee instead of tea.
You introduced me to Rivetnuts in a prior video. Excellent application & use of 'em on the back doors.
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada U.S.A.
your bed set up next? toilet, maybe? ooo, what's the next construction? can wait!
I'm sure blue loves his new van
Just hit the like before i started watching and you didn't disappoint me. Like the van series, you have genius ideas. Can't wait to see where does it take you first.
I don’t like to disappoint😉. I’ve just been to the Isle of Mull in it and it was ace👌
Those ridge monkey sandwich toasters are a life changer ,I cook loads in mine ,vans looking good
Yes they are great😬
Amazing use of small spaces Al. I’ve converted to ridge-monkey pan sets 👍👍 The Van build is one of the best I’ve seen and I’m sure will get copied . Hopefully one day might drop on ya . Enjoy ya van travels and stay safe 👊👊
Thanks Jase👊. I’ve so many more ideas for a van build I need another van to use them on😂
Nice Dead South whistle cover 😅🤙
great tune
@@freds-shed it is. Good band, their Good Company album is 🔥 def worth checking out!
😂 it’s a top song that😉
I was just popping in to say the same 😊 (oh and great van kitchen ❤)
Hi Bushy, well you said it….‘Well worth the effort’ Well done for a brilliant job done. Enjoy Scotland ❤❤
It definitely was and I’ve only just started😉
These van build vids are great 👍... I'm currently saving for a van myself, so will be using some (not all) ideas from these for my own build. I want to be personalised for myself, but some of these are great ideas. This is the sort of build I'm going for (with some differences).
Excellent it will be worth all the effort. I hope it goes well. Enjoy!
Great stuff mate! With innovative ideas like that you should be running the country! Wouldn’t be on it’s arse half as much with a brilliant mind like yours at the top desk! 🤣 Build looks great and can’t wait to see a full tour and the first adventure 👍🏻🤙🏻 Keep the content comin’!
😂😂😂 I’d sort the country out but I’d have everyone doing star jumps and burpees every morning
@@BUSHMANandBLUE 🤣🤣🤣
your a clever b loke fair dos loads of ideas
The fantastic attention to detail continues, settled my ocd a treat.
The van conversion is brilliant, some excellent ideas, I look forward to the film on Mull.
Wishing you many many happy camping adventures in your fantastic camper van.
Well done Al, well deserved. 🍻🍻👍👍👍👍
Thanks Chris. I’m good at settling OCD as I’ve always done things as close to perfection as possible😉
@@BUSHMANandBLUE yep I understand, I always have to work that way too, cheers 🍻👍👍👍
Yes Allen you are a bit of a genius some brilliant ideas. Great workmanship. This is going to be a Top Notch vehicle. Well done. Take Care. Cheers BK
Thanks BK. I’m happy with it thus far😬
I saw a pretty genius set up here in Japan. A guy had his kitchen on his doors like you, but he had these panels over the windows that he could flip up to provide overhead cover on either side. Once done, he'd drop them and block out the windows. And he rigged up a small tarp across the doors when the wind picked up. I enjoy seeing innovation on vehicles like yours and his.
Interesting thanks👊
Well...that’s completely different to anything I’ve seen before & a stroke of f’ing genius...!
Well played mate...great solution to space saving.
.Wish.
I like designing and making my own ideas rather than copying. Cheers mate👊
Excellent Al, great workmanship as always, van looks Bob on 😂
😂 strange saying 😂
@@BUSHMANandBLUE aye it is mate but must be a northern thing because I've always heard since being a kid 🙌
Oh ok, just seen, u got one 😂
Clever stuff. 😅
Brilliant video Al and some absolutely fantastic ideas for a van build. Though I can’t believe you did a quick Rolf Harris impression with the wobble board 😉😂😂😂😂
Good old Rolf. Loved it as a kid. 😂
@@BUSHMANandBLUE 😂😂
Never mind good old rolf, he fooled us all, dirty so and so!!!!l
Amazing kitchen. Very clean lines and very good use of available space. The Ridgemonkey gear was a good find. Perfect for your use. Have you considered some kind of tarp setup for when it rains?
Definitely! I’m making one.
Jobs a goodun, up to Mull next then. SLAINTE MHATH!
Perfect. What will you do when it is raining?
I’m making a tarp😉
I may have missed it... but are you thinking of a tarp/awning set up for the barn doors? Brilliantly thought out and executed Al.
Yes at some point. 👌
Cool
Exceptional 👍🙂….I am sure it is hand 👍…. Maybe something to fix over the open back doors for cover if raining…☔️ …. Love your refreshing top class videos…Love and Hugs to Blue 🦴🐾 …. x😮
Yes I’ve been thinking of a design but not got round to it yet. Cheers 👊
