Generously Moving The Cargo Van's Electrical Wiring Forward | Juniper & Jones Episode #2
The mobile library project continues with Cait wiring the van, working on a clock cabinet, beginning the framing, and sharing her generosity and inspiration.
Cait shares her journey of tackling the electrical wiring for Betty the Book Bus, along with other critical first steps of our mobile library build. From grappling with "fat thumbs" and challenging wiring in our home renovations to the scary moment of sinking the first screw in the van, you'll see the real process, the mistakes, and the lessons learned that will help you overcome your DIY fears.
This episode also dives into the profound story of Robert E. Fried, whose radical generosity and belief in me taught me that "you can do it," a lesson vital to embarking on ambitious projects like this van build. Join us as we strip down an antique grandfather clock for repurposing, strategize for Juniper's future access, and begin framing out the van – watch now to gain confidence and practical insights for your next big project!
