Their Milled-wood Van Conversion

on January 3, 2023

Megan and Lee were moving from California back to the Midwest, considering buying some land and buying a house, when they realized they weren’t ready to settle down yet. They decided to build a Ford Transit and create their own home on wheels for a while.

Lee had family connections to a mill in Pennsylvania and selected all the lumber in the van from a couple of trees, which they planed and treated, becoming the interior of their rig. The result is a unique rustic feel that’s perfect for this couple.

I love the tapestry-style wall hanging separating the cab.
