Pittsburgh · Van Outfitter & Woodworker
Custom builds
that are works of art.
Saw dust in the lungs, craftsmanship in the heart. Custom builds that are works of art, made right here in the 'burgh.
The shop
Ten years of saw dust, and counting.
Mitre Box started at the workbench: live-edge tables, wine racks, restaurant fixtures all over Pittsburgh. That obsession with craft grew into something bigger: full van conversions built like fine furniture.
Sprinters, Transits, a hot-rod Dodge, even a double-decker bus. Whatever you roll in with, it leaves as a work of art. Saw dust in the lungs, craftsmanship in the heart.

Which build are you here for?
Featured builds
A few we're proud of.
The Hot Rod Dodge
Shipped out from California and reborn in the burgh. Hot rod flat paint, shag carpet, an octagon partition wall and sweet diamond-stitched paneling. Our most-loved build for a reason.
Blanket & Board Double-Decker
We teamed up with Blanket & Board to build out their double-decker bus into a mobile event space. Pittsburgh is lucky to have Tierra and her crew making room for community to gather.
Sprinter Camper (Sold)
A full Sprinter campervan build out, dialed in and ready for the road. This one found its owner fast. SOLD.
Dress for Success Mobile Boutique
A mobile boutique for Dress for Success Pittsburgh. We build vans for every purpose, and we felt lucky to support a mission that helps so many women across the city.

Built for the burgh
