Bed and Frame: Building Around It on a Hot Day

A hot day for van work — the kind where the metal's warm by 9am and the shop fan is your best friend. But the build doesn't care about the heat: continued working around the bed and frame.

/ Around the Bed

The bed frame's in, so everything else gets built around it — storage below, panels beside, and the structure that ties the rear of the van together. It's the anchor point the whole back half revolves around.

/ The Frame

Framing is unforgiving work — everything has to be square and solid because it's all getting covered up. When it's right, you forget it's there. When it's wrong, you never stop fighting it.

/ Worth the Sweat

Hot day, honest work, and the bed area is taking real shape. Vandalf keeps stacking days like this — each one hot, each one worth it.

Until the next run out — work hard, play hard.
