Hello all.
I've taken the next step in my vandweller journey. I've rented a storage unit. The first load of stuff that I can't give up goes into it tomorrow. I'm on my way.

Thanks again.
I'm thinking about getting a stove and have it do double duty until I have a need for anything larger. Your suggestion in another thread about using a Dutch oven half full of sand sounds easy and inexpensive and I'm all about that.
As you say
Cheers

I've been doing more research on kerosene heaters and noticed they are quite large.
What BTU rating do you look for to heat your van? Space is always a premium so I'm looking for the most bang for the size that I can get.
Thanks

Hello all
I just joined yesterday and I'm already reaping the benefits.
I have a '91 Ford E250 that I'm starting to convert to living space. I'm planning on living in the van til debt is paid off then traveling. I'd love to find a job that would work with a traveling lifestyle.
Thanks and keep the shiny side up.

Thanks a lot. This helps loads. I'm just starting my conversion and I'm going bare bones at the beginning to find out what I really need. I'll probably be hitting you up often.
Just warning you.

Van Conversion / Kerosene heater.

I've seen a few threads that have to do with kerosene heaters and or cook stoves.
What brands or styles are recommended by those who know?

Van Conversion / Swivel passenger seat
March 26, 2018, 11:09:32 PM
Hello
I've just started the van life. I have a '91 E250 Club Wagon window van. Id like to put a swivel under the passenger side seat.
Has anyone done this before? Where do you get the swivels? Does it raise the factory seats up very much?
YouTube videos on this haven't really answered my questions.

Thanks
