In this video I show you how to make a van partition. This is my second time building a partition in this van. About 4 years ago my dad and I made a partition out of 2x4s. The wood partition served me well for almost 4 years and was still solid. But because I'm remodeling the rest of my van (Proud Mary 2.0) I decided to make a new partition wall out of metal studs.
Because I am hanging a 32" monitor on the partition I still needed to incorporate some wood to add rigidity to the partition. A metal stud wall alone is not capable of supporting the monitor.
Other tools that are really helpful when working with metal studs:
Rivnut/Plusnut tool I used to fasten metal studs to the cargo van walls:
amzn.to/2SUYdl4
Tin snips: amzn.to/3tRnn0v
Welding pliers: amzn.to/2SXDehu
Carpenter wood rule: amzn.to/3tU4la2
Speed square: amzn.to/2RUdVwd
