Van Conversion Shower Updates + Headliner Shelf | Van Build Series
We are officially calling Austin our "home base" now as we try to finish and move into our van! Over the last few days we have worked a ton of hours trying to make some big progress and have accomplished a few big things: we got our shower walls up, created and installed our headliner shelf, installed the battery isolator, and started to cut and stain butcher block. We still have a lot to do, but we're inching closer!
