Wanna know how to cut wood properly?
Check out THIS episode! We also get after the bed bulkhead platform :)

Since the entertainment industry is on a break in 2020, I am just a girl (now funemployed actress) on a 90 day journey in BEAUTIFUL Wisconsin building my tiny house on wheels aka my 144 sprinter van with no building experience.

Who AM I?
Hey Y'all!
Holland Roden here :0
Welcome!!!
For the last decade, some of you have known me as Lydia Martin on 'Teen Wolf'.
For my next slice of life, I will be making memories on the road #vanlife #femalevanbuild and so eager for you to join in on the adventure!

This is a lifestyle (among yurts, earthshipping, and sail boats) that I have been yearning to jump into for a few years now.

You Tube was a refuge for me during a time when I wasn't available to drop what I was doing and build my own van. Van Builds were MY favorite TV shows every week- & NOW- I want to pass the torch to anyone looking to get out of their own head, hopefully get inspired, and learn a thing or two in my van build.

Fievel and I will be waiting
Waves and Wags,
Holland and Fievel

~~Flooring and Walls~~
GO to previous video for items
FLOOR PROCESS:
you take thin cork board sheets (not mentioned above) and cut into strips to level out floor we glued that with 3M 77 adhesive then you put silicone down then the foam board then the liquid nails then the sub floor which is the floor you work on for the building process as not to ruin your actual floor going in
WALLS:
we just cut the plywood down into strips (more bendable than 2 by 4s) and since our walls are curved you get more wall space that way! we used clamps to then drill holes and then put in the screws. All listed above. Hope that helps!
