Probably one of the best set ups I have seen. The only thing I don't like is when the bed is fully down, then the projector cant project, so you can't lay in bed and watch TV. But hey, I still give this 5 stars
Very cool. You have The only type of bed that should in any camper van, one that disappears, and you are not constantly faffing about with cushions and bed linen .
Another good option for AC would be the "Backpack Mini-Split". They are made for trucks/rvs, run on DC power (12-24v usually), and use car refrigerant so no special licensing required. Started to see them on a few builds on YT and they look pretty cool. I love the sleeper look of this build and the simple modern interior.
There is no reason to mess with subpar DC stuff when residential splits are cheap, a known quantity, and more efficient. If you have the space to hang the outdoor unit don't mess with the DC stuff. My reference is we have a 12VDC split unit with heat pump. The ONLY reason I went that route is because I couldn't get a residential split unit to work on my van.
@@noxious456 Less envy on my part, more like it'd be nice if the uploader said upfront this was a business-venture. I prefer seeing people's DIY stuff, which this is clearly not.
Nice build. I also live in a converted box truck. It’s 14 feet. Nobody even bats an eye. I have 600 watts of solar, and 250ah of batteries a stove, and freezer on a temperature control module. Sink, shower, a garage, and slide/ Murphy bed. Best decision I ever made.
NIce build, amazing use of tech. My one concern would be the windows, dead giveaway someone is livin in the box. It would be cool if you could design stealthy way to conceal the windows.
Saw another box truck build that only had a skylight but when back was opened up to make the deck there was a full length and height sliding glass door so it was light an actual patio 👍🏻
Outstanding I've watched many (and I mean many) stelth campers, bus builds , and almost anything else you can imagine and this ranks in the top 5 if not #1 of builds. Well done I am awe struck it is gorgeous inside and very stelth like outside, job well done.
Dealing with black water is tedious enough for the short term camping trip. Can you imagine having to *constantly* worry about your septic system needing to be serviced, and not having a capable offloading site (campground) available anywhere nearby? Plus, this is now essentially a moving truck with enough weight inside to be considered fully loaded, and 83 gallons of water is bad enough without adding another 30-some gallon black tank to the mix. Pretty sure this is why most "stealth campers" just get a Planet Fitness membership.
@@weaselsworldSaw a build with 50 gal black water tank like any RV. Had clean out access too. Toilet was built inside the shower so bonus was the shower head could be used as a bidet.
it's not so much these people making YT content (which probably most of the upper-quality ones are bullshit anyway) from professional projects the law cares about, it's about the nuisance stealth campers that live like pigs, makes a mess, gets in people's way, trespass, steal utilities, etc., they're trying to keep a handle on. but, they have to apply the law evenly, or in theory try to. these guys probably aren't fooling many, if any, real cops, but as long as you don't make it obvious and move along the next day, i suspect they just look the other way.
@@ryanbarker5217if their comment doesn't have an @ and your name like this reply DIRECTLY TO YOU does. Then they didn't. Just like how you left a comment and no name popped up yet we know you were talking to the first comment

As others have said, that's REALLY sharp looking! You were serious that a lot of long learned skills went into making this. It shows. I'm not in the market to become a stealth mobile-life person but if I were something like this would fit the bill.
thanks alot for inspiration. I've been thinking alot desing of my dream box truck type home in my head and this was best so far. very close what I've been thinking
Rent is going overy the skies in all europe capitals. Im seriously looking to build myself a stealthvan like this, park it near my work, gym or supermarket. And live like this for a ocuple years while i make money.
Wow I've been saying that a lot looking at the video. I has just about everything I need. It's Beautiful and it feels like a home! Too me anyway. Don't know what the Price is I've seen smaller builds that cost More and besides that the build From the bottom up! Hello if people think the price is too high then they're high!! The installation and everything else. I don't believe I've seen too many other builds! Beautiful Job. If I had the Money I would have it for my Home 💗💗💗💗. Have a great day
I have a feeling this isn't cheap but, I really like the end results and, I think there is a niche market for these types of builds. Great work, If I had this mighty beast I'd make it my daily driver regardless of the downfalls of driving a box truck as a daily driver. 👍
@@chrispekel5709 So in the end? Yes! These things are expensive. I'm sorry, do you hear the words coming out of your mouth? Sure I can go to Home Depot and get the parts but, beyond that! I gotta pay a guy who knows what he's doing with those parts to build the damned sob! My guy, just stop. 😞
@lingtonVonDukeIII Yes, of course they're expensive in the end. I should know, I've built 3. But the hundreds if not thousands of hours of labour is your main cost - unless you can do it yourself. But then, your own time is worth money unless it's a hobby. I think my point went straight over your head
Been thinking of one of these since I travel and make films - This would mean I wouldn't need a hotel anywhere and have a place for my work. Thank you for the idea Very much! I am though trying to figure out how you got the box and the cab to be as one since usually they are separate pieces!
Did you create a better vapor barrier on the walls by sealing every little gap? Even a little bit of moisture that gets into those walls will cause condensation. You won't notice it until the damage is obvious.
Y'all should do this for a living. That craftsmanship *chef's kiss*.
I think that is what he is doing. the video was basically a ad to purchase that truck.
corny
@@NomadicBloke1yeah let’s stop with putting chefs kiss in posts. Just make a pact to never do it anymore.
Since he CNC cut all the cabinetry and professionally edged it, yeah he's already doing this for a living.
@@patty109109 This is the first time I've seen it and I agree with it being the last.
This is by far the best video on stealth camper construction
@esra-erimez at what cost?
@@artsteadman2230 Exactly; if I had a CNC laying around I could do this too!
very professional, the machines you used alone would break my bank account. old people like me use hand tools and lots of patience.

@@MyGoogleRUclips I"ve started seeing people hanging the part that goes outside under the vehicle for extra stealth even.
@@MyGoogleRUclipsThanks for the heads up!

You have access to just about every type of wood, metal and laminate fabrication equipment. Interesting.

Where do you park every night? Do you move it constantly? Also how do you manage having ample shower water?
This is fabulous, I love that it is so unassuming. Great job.

Amazing use of space, especially liked the drop-down bed. For me bigger holding tank would be a plus.
Gorgeous. Maybe even perfect. The stealth is next level.
Definitely one of the best looking builds I've seen! Making the space efficient yet not cramped.
Amazing build. Probably the most advanced cabinet construction for a build I've ever seen!

What a wonderfully executed build!
I've watched a lot of conversion videos. This is easily one of the most impressive. Nice work.
I don't get how you have that nice of a shower & kitchen sink setup, but yet no crapper.......

One word ''WOW".........
🇬🇧 First class job, well done. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Yes Im about to do this too thanks... Cheers from Melbourne Australia
This is beyond creative. I just hope the government doesn’t try to stick their noses into folks living off the grid to travel and save money 🤦🏾

Absolutely beautiful man. Super job
Nice Job never showing the side with the window from outside ;)
An amazing idea. I’m really surprised this isn’t more common or even a niche market for small conversion companies. Nice work!
What a great build.

Fantastic work, looks amazing! I also appreciate this video being quick and to the point. Others should take note and cut the rambling lol
Thanks for the inspiration. I need a standalone 1/2-ton truck, but I will use your creative ideas for the DIY trailer build. Cheers.
Beautiful build,
Oh how I wish I had this vehicle! Just stunning.
Love your truck ❤
Best conversion ive seen!! wow!
Just awesome craftsmanship...hell.. I'll buy one..
Best box truck build ever! Nice work 🙌🏽
Awesome build best I've seen!
Best stealth box ever - love how you did this 🎉❤😊
Very well designed.
thanks alot for inspiration. I've been thinking alot desing of my dream box truck type home in my head and this was best so far. very close what I've been thinking
Absoutly amazing work well done!!!
One thing you may not have thought of is a washer / dryer (saw in another channel). :)
Well done with the craftsmanship.
That was a great build. 👍🏻
Amazing build!!! ❤❤❤
WELL THOUGHT OUT VERY NICELY DONE!!!
Nicely done!
Wow ... an EXCELLENT build!!
Love it , it's perfect for one person
All three machines are great !!! Good vid
I am curious as to how much something like this would cost. Thank you, Doc Chaps

Great job matt shatt
Awesome build.
Выглядит потрясающе, у вас золотые руки 8)
Great little camper! Would love to see a cost breakdown
awesome, you need to open a shop and build them.
Awesome good job
I am sure is expensive

They aren't that expensive to build, your main cost is labour (either your own time or paying someone else)

Did you create a better vapor barrier on the walls by sealing every little gap? Even a little bit of moisture that gets into those walls will cause condensation. You won't notice it until the damage is obvious.
You don’t need to add a vapor barrier. The sheet metal will act as one. You need it to have breathability so moisture can leave
this is quite sensational
As you age , you're gonna place more value on having some type of poo bucket or something, 24/7 restrooms are quite rare in lots of areas .
Very nice work
Loved the build, when can you start building mine.
It came out great
What is the price on this sweet rig?
nice job brother!!
Wow! Nice job!
Congratulations on your build. Did not get the price though.
Thats because they want 100k + for it 😂☠️
It’s still for sale so that tells you the want way too much $.
I'm normally not a fan of these professional builds, I must say you guys did a phenomenal job it's still a little sleek for me but it's really nice.
Sold...bout 6 months ago.
As soon as you saw how the cabinets were built… it was way out of almost everyone’s league…. $100k+ ouch .
You skilled, talented, visionary people disgust me. Liked, subscribed!
What is the size of the box truck, very nice build I love IT
well done
Well that is freaking awesome
very nice and creative
Very nice build!
I'm sad I found this video 7 months late.
amazing job! do you work somewhere with all that cabinet equipment? joiners/ edge banders/routers and so on?
