How I built my OVERHEAD CABINETS for my van | Van Build #20

I'm showing you how I built my overhead storage. I start with building a storage space over the driver's cab and then move on to building the overhead cabinets over the kitchen and bed. Making blueprints out of cardboard proved to be essential in these tasks. The cabinets were a little bit more difficult then they could have been because I wanted to build them in the same style I used for the rest of the furniture. But still, they were really quick and relatively straight forward to make!

What I used this episode:
*Tools*
Jigsaw
Electric screwdriver
Brush
Table saw
Pocket hole jig
*Materials*

-------------------------- About -----------------------------

I've been living in my 1979 Mercedes-Benz James Cook Campervan for two years now. I loved that van, but it was itching me to do my own conversion; alone and without any experience. I sold my old van and started my very own van conversion!
In this Van Build Series, I will take you along my journey of building my own home on wheels. I will do everything from insulation, cladding, and furniture to the water and electric system. And all that while I'm learning how to do these things on the way. I will go through many hours of work, frustrating moments, and defeats in order to achieve the experience of creating things with my own hands. I hope you're enjoying this series and maybe you can even learn something from my ideas & mistakes. - Lenja
