WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?
You bought the van, and now you think how nice it would be to fit it out. A campervan conversion. This is a one- or two-day course in just that. There are manuals out there, but it really does help to get some expert advice, especially if you are new to DIY, or you could use some help with plans for the layout, or just the basics — ‘How do I attach it to the van walls?’ sort of stuff. It could make the difference between ‘that’s nice’ and ‘where can we get one?’.
The course uses recycled materials and is an eye-opener into what you can create by yourself with some energy and guidance.
TELL ME MORE
Day one, and you will be tackling all the basics. That includes lighting options, plumbing, design, and layout. Day two will include practical sessions in metal cutting (you did say you would like a couple more windows?), working with gas, diesel heaters, or how to build a sink unit from scratch. The precise items covered will depend on what most interests participants.
Scott is your teacher, a man driven to upcycle. He has built and helped others build their vans over the past 20 years. A home on wheels is absolutely his favourite thing. Now, you may find quite a diverse range of skills among your fellow students, but this workshop is for beginners, and you aren’t expected to know anything. Scott is helpful, patient, and a great teacher — just the right person to give you encouragement before you start the build.
A campervan, handcrafted by you. Get ready for vanlife.

Product code: INADOThis was a fantastic day that I bought for my wife as an idea to see if we really wanted to get a van and convert it. From early on we felt comfortable with the idea of getting a van and at the end of the day we left feeling confident that not only do we have next steps, but a clear idea of the whole process. It was a great day that was set out very clearly and in a step by step process with lots of opportunity for questions. A fantastic day :)
Scott was very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable, presenting all topics in a professional yet relaxed manner. An Aladdin's cave of a workshop full of everything needed and more for the course with hot drinks on tap as required. A thoroughly enjoyable and very informative experience. Highly recommended.
I was blown away by this course Scott and Sue are so welcoming . I learned far more than I thought I would. I can now plumb in a sink and water system and wire up and troubleshoot the electrics for my camper van, and feel confident doing it. I cannot recommend this course highly enough . The workshop is awesome .Scott is a great teacher, very chatty and puts you at easy and is patient taking time to explain things. Fantastic !!! 🤗
I really enjoyed this course, it far exceeded my expectations. I went in with a vague understanding of campervan electrics and came out feeling confident enough to wire my own van. Scott also filled in any holes in the rest of my knowledge. It was a very relaxed and enjoyable experience. Thank you Scott!
