Van Conversion

One of my projects during pandemic was building out a camper van. This was a collaborative project with freshly minted van dad Michael. It also features artwork by Gerry. Glamper Van and FarOutRideprovided design inspirations.

How this beauty came into our lives.

The van lived its past life as a humble and beaten up plumbing services vehicle. When we started, it had a leaky roof, metal shelvings attached, and an extremely dilapidated interior.

I enjoy construction projects large and small. One of my absolute favorite mediums to work with is wood. I love designing and building out furiture. While Michael laid out the electronics, I did most of the carpentry.
