  • Spring is here and it is time for a plain minivan to transform into a very small camper van.
    The whole camper set up can be completely removed without a trace and set up again in about 30 minute, taking it easy!
    There are some parts - like the electricals that can stay in, but they too can be taken out if ever the van need to be sold.
    Welcome to a very small camper van, my channel all about my very small camper van - a minivan being transformed into a diy camper. #vanlife #minivancamper

    You did that. I mean I watch these types of videos all day. Build & no build conversations. I am literally blown away. This is so creative and amazing. Im going to look and see if you offer blue prints/ DIY guide ebook or PDF. If not...do it please I will invest in it. Don't stop doing what you do.

    There are parts of conversions I really like, but this conversion is exceptional. I love the entire conversion. Thank you for your music free, concisely detailed and at a rate of speech to catch all that you are doing, especially the electrical. I like your option for mesh netting. It is more practical than covers. The kitchen is perfect, and everything is below the window. Excellent build of every piece!

    Very nice camper van conversion. I really like that it is not permanently converted, it can be easily used as a minivan or a camper van. The build quality looks fantastic, very professional.
    I really think you could sell this as a kit.

    A tip for securing the solar panel, install all your bolts loosely before you start tighting down. That way you have some wiggle room. It's a little tip I learned when I first startedy career as an aircraft mechanic. Get all the bolts or screws started with a couple of turns and then go back and snug them down. Great build!

    • @averysmallcampervan
      @averysmallcampervan  3 года назад +1
