This first stove is an Aladdin Tropic. It is one of the smallest kerosene heater you can find. They are not made any more and there are few around in decent shape. It would be to big for a van except in below zero temps . . .way below. The next one is what is called a brooder heater. I bought...

Whatever happened to 4x4steve. I haven't seen him post in a very long time. Anybody keep in touch with him?

I will pre-emp this post with a disclaimer: I have grown up around some pretty unorthadoxed heating systems in various applications from heating barns to fish houses and everything in between. This was just an experiment to see how this heater worked in my bus. The set up was anything but...

Awhile back when it was colder than all get out I was twiddling my thumbs in the van and decided to make some cookies on my Big Buddy heater. Below you will find a series of pics that tell the story. This piece of angle iron I used you can purchase @ any hardware store. If you cut the angle iron...

Here is an old article about how to build a bed in an old sedan. This would still work in a euro sedan with a fold down seat. Some american cars now have the same feature. Car bed

Take a look @ this baby. It has Texas plates on it in north Dakota so it MUST be a sound rig. Oh, and the guy in the background is a bust of Teddy Roosevelt.

I was looking for a way to use one light fixture for both 110V & 12V lighting. I found this blog post on the web. It is stupid simple & cheap too. Especially if you already have the fluorescent fixtures. :cool: http://www.thewanderman.com/2012/05/convert-fluorescent-lights-to-led-dual.html

OK, I'm not traveling as much as I used to so wanted something with more room so I bought an old school bus to convert into a cabin on wheels. I looked a long time and settled for a Ford B700 with 10.00X 22.5 tires an Allison automatic and Brazilian made/ Cummins designed Ford/ New Holland 6.6...

I recently moved my refrigerator. It is now taking up space in my rear storage compartment with the door facing the living space, of course. I beefed up the insulation by surrounding most of it with 1 3/4" of the pink stuff I found in the dump.

Fall brings an end to work in Minnesota. I've been in Central Wisconsin now for a few weeks. It is beautiful here this time of year; weather is perfect.<br /><br />Anybody around these parts let me know; I'd love to get together with someone over some rice, beans &amp; a cup of black coffee.<br...

I'm still at it. I've been working in the Pine River, MN area since July 4th. One of my daughters lives in this neck of the woods so I've been plugged in there. She keeps trying to get me to move into the house but I just sleep better in the van. I've been here working for so long I brought my...
