95 AWD camper van

Condolences Sam.

Thanks guys. Me and my mom certainly had a complex relationship and I spent a lot of yrs as far from home as possible but am just glad we reconciled and grew close (closer at least) over these last couple of yrs. Its been pretty amazing coming to understand what an incredible man my dad is as he works through all this. Its been a journey, no doubt. Word of advice, if you're still able, it's never a bad idea to give your folks a call just to check in and say hi. Anyway, onward and upward!

What a difference. Nice job...

Thanks Leeann. What a journey!

Beautiful Sam, when you get some free time come to my place.
My bride is looking for a good carpenter! :lol:

Hey thanks! I'm sure she'd like someone a little more experienced than a dude just making it up as he goes along, fully educated at YouTube University! Progress is being made though and I couldn't be happier with it.

House looks great! You are really an over achiever!

How's the van, the Jeep? (pics, poke)

VERY nice!

In other news, the house next to the blue house (not the one between the blue house and the green house - the one next door to the west) might be getting rented to new tenants. The bad news is, it's the freaking looney tunes that used to own the blue house and turned it into the dump it was when I bought it. They're trying to get into the house next door because they're being evicted from their current rental (for trashing it). So... to prevent that, I might be suddenly doing what I can to buy that place too. Ugh.

Sam, the house looks great! Nice work :cheers:

Looks great Sam. Nicely done with the siding details, board and batten gable is a nice touch. Simple stuff like that sets houses apart. I like the prairie style windows, did the same in my house.

Thank you and yeah, the details on houses really makes the difference.

Those windows look great and were an absolute gift from the Facebook gods. A pile of them popped up on marketplace practically new. I snagged the whole stack for about $50 a window which was incredibly fortunate because I'd just quit my job and started the business so the budget was seriously tight.

I almost can't believe how this place is coming together though. It's been thrilling to see it just fall into place.

The van build and the house build in this thread are super epic my dude
