Transforming A Diy Camper Van With Ply Lining: Van Build Edition!

- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2024
- "How I" Applied Vapour Barrier & Ply Lining to the Camper VAN.
In this episode '4', of the Vanbuild / Vanconversion into a campervan, I use the 5mm plywood sheets to ply line the van's interior. I also fitted and Insulated the van's flooring, using 50mm PIR (kingspan / celotex insulation boards), and vapour barriered the interior, using the reflectix silver bubble wrap sheets.

that van would take pride of place on the Tank park excellent job
Mate watching someone struggle with the roof board is funny, I was in the same boat, but where there's a will there's a way, well done.
Haha 😅. You've just reminded me, I've got that to do that all again next year 🤦😅. Cheers matey 😉👌👍👍👍.
@@Iveavan That's what van builders do 😃
Top class mate
Cheers matey 😉👍👍👍.
Minchia che bel lavoro che hai fatto da SOLO. Bravissimo
Jimmy Savilles tracksuit - luv it 😂
😂😁😉👌👍👍👍
Nezt week, watch how he arm wrestles the hulk whilst eating avocado on toast:)
really nice fit out on your van. Good job on fitting the roof plywood single handed. Great stuff
Lol yeah that was fun 😬😅. Thank you matey 😎👌👍👍👍.
The humour alone is worth me subbing 👍
Haha! Thanks for Subbing Mark 😉👍👍👍
Thanks again lad, better than telly.
Haha, Cheers Bud 😂😊😉👍👍👍
your certainly doing a fab job and very precise. Not many builds are so accurate, keep up the good work & let's see 10 fingers at the end of the build, or at least 9 & a 1/2
Haha 😂👌, if I come out of this build with 11 fingers... I'll be in bother 🤔🤞, cheers matey 😉👍👍👍
Brilliant Mark , well done , van looking smart .
Thank you Chris 😊👍. HOPEFULLY! 🤔 by Easter time she will be in use (or use able) 🤞 crossed. 😉👍👍👍...
You done well there Mark ,
Cheers matey 😉👍👍👍.
Nice job, I absolutely need to under seal my van like that, spent a bomb on welding last year. Great editing easy to watch, I just started a channel too. My friend has an Iveco daily camper he’s converting, Luke’s Van Life. they’re way more comfortable for size than mine. Mine is very rustic though. Keep up the good work. Subscribed
Cheers matey 😉👍, yep definitely worth sorting the underside out mate especially if you've spent time and money on it, to give it longevity so to say 😊👍👍👍
Great videos. Happy to subscribe. You address areas most wouldn't think to touch.
Cheers Mr H and thank you for Subbing mate 😉👍, I'm aiming to 'think out of the box' ( ohhhh that sounds soooo corporate speak 🙄😉) when building this van, try something's different that most others haven't done 'hopefully' 🤔😉👍👍👍
Mark that was an excellent vid, excellent work and excellent skills 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 a BIG well done mate
The world’s biggest camper van 👍
Dave, Jo and Louie 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
I'm keen to get it ready for Camp Knobhead Dave 🤔😁😎. I've bought more superglue and a new chain saw chain for my first aid demonstration 👀.. Cheers Mate 😉👍👍👍
Mark Collom #Iveavan brilliant 👍
Looking fantastic, you should be very proud...... and how you didn’t snap the roof panel (or it just separate down the glue line) I have no idea.
Great work
Thank you 😉👍. To be honest, I didn't know how I didn't snap that plywood sheet in half 😂, the second half went in easily, no drama at all. 😁👍👍👍...
Looking really good. Done a nice job there . Mind them fingers 🖐 in that saw 🚐👌
Haha 🤣🤘. Thank you Simon 😊👍. I've got a new toy to test out on my fingers now matey 😁😬😲😂.... Just don't tell Dawn, she's getting happy with the 'DO NOT USE' Tape 🤔🙄😉👍👍👍...
I'm really enjoying your build!
Cheers Michael and thankyou for Subbing mate 😉👍, Hopefully they will be another video out this weekend ( flooring and the Bentley quilted vinyl leather walls and ceiling ) 😎👍👍👍
Coming on nicely , that quilted fake leather should look good. 😎
Thank you 😉👍. Yes.... I'm not looking forward in putting that stuff up🤔, especially on the roof. But I do have a plan 😉👍👍👍..
Mad skills splicing those 2 sheets. The ceiling panel...what can I say ? When it happened to me I swore a lot. Didn't help but I felt better ! Nice editing too. Thanks for sharing. John
Thank you John 😊👍, haha, I swore a lot mate, Certainly didn't help having a buggered finger, and a bad cold at the time 😂😉👍👍👍
Thanks for the laugh with the ceiling sheet of ply, I know the feeling with plaster slabs....
Haha, yes, it was a bugger to fit 😉👍👍👍
I'm lovin the videos lad, well done you.
Very kind of you, thank you matey 😉👍👍👍
Looking good mate
Cheers matey 😉👍. I be glad when it's built. I'm pretty sure they built 'York Minster' quicker then this sodding van 😁👍👍👍...
great work well done, its not a crime to ask for a hand.
Thank you 😉👍. No it certainly isn't 👍. But they was no body around at that time unfortunately, But thankfully the second part of the roof went into position with no drama at all 😊👌👍👍👍...
Very thorough job with the Insualtion. Your gonna have a very profesh van when ur done :)
Hey up Luke, cheers bud 😉👍... It seems to be working 'insulation wise' all that I have been using for heating is those halogen lights, and it seems to hold the heat 🔥 in quite well. I do have one of those oil radiators in there. But only had to put that on twice, so the wood glue would dry for those ' roof panels' over night. 😉👍👍👍...
@@Iveavan well its looking great. Looking forward to seeing what you end up with :)
I'll be interested, to see how many fingers I have left after this build bud 😬😅😉... Cheers matey 😄👍👍👍...
Just started watching your vids great build professional job,the ceiling bit did make me laugh mate I might have got someone to help hold as I would have probably lost the plot 😂😂. Keep going looking forward to the next one.
Thank you Jason 😉👍, I started to laugh at one point trying to wrestle with that board 😅🙄... The next video I will be fighting against gravity again 😳, when I'm fitting that Bentley quilted faux leather patterned stuff on the walls and ceiling mate 🤔😉👍👍👍
Hello, going to look at a 6mtr medium wheel base Iveco Daily tomorrow. we plan to do the same thing you are doing with yours! we also intend to create Vlogs on the progress.
i love how you have fully cleaned and painted the underside and chassis. something i think we are going to do, plus cavity waxing the chassis. we plan to almost do a full restoration to the underside. (well i do, my brother will be working on the inside). thankfully the van we are looking at has only covered 114k miles and is a 2004. its going to be a super fun project and im looking forward to giving 110% to the project! we are also looking into retrofitting air conditioning as the one we are looking at does not have it. its something i have done before on another car.
its going to be a big change from old Fiat Pandas to a big Iveco van!
Hey up John 😉👍. Yep, I definitely recommend air-conditioning mate, pointless building a RV vehicle with out it 👍, after working out of a van for more then 25 years, I can tell you it's no fun in the summer, and far more easier to demist the windows in the winter bud😉. Regarding 'Iveco's' watch for rust! Or you'll end up like me, making endless videos of welding, painting and so on bud 😂😉👌...
To keep yourself focused follow Ash Pollard and Luke Izzard, they have helped me along, regarding the pain of working on the Iveco and inspiration 😁. Others I like to follow and keeps my mind off the sodding van, (ironically all van related though 🤔 and in no particular order! ) Gadget John,(and his other channel 'on tour' ) One man and his Whippet, Mevi, Betty boom dockers, Amber Project, and urban Stealth Campervan Man...
Van wise! Greg Virgoe look no further! he's the sodding guru at this shit!
Budget 'X' it twice (to stay on the safe side.... But in saying that, I don't think I've broken my 10k limit..... yet 🤔 but I can't be far off it now!😢).
Time schedule 'X' that twice too..... Mine was meant to be ready 18th November 2018 🤔..... Good luck in your build matey and I shall follow your progress 😉👍👍👍
@@Iveavan thanks for the tips and help! i should be in bed now to be up and ready for tomorrow! i'll be sure to get the vlogs up and running the same way i did with my old fiat panda and citroen BX video logs. no fancy editing sadly but it will get the job done.
we are only got for 1 skylite on ours.. going to fill the roof with solar. sure looking forward to it. hope to not spend over 10K on it, but we will see. i like to think i have the easy job of welding, undersealing, cavity waxing brake line replacing and other mechanical repairs. all stuff i have done when i restored my old Fiats and citroen.
This is gonna be fun!
Apologies mate, I should of looked at your YT before spouting that shit😉😂. I can quite clearly see, your more then capable in building a campervan bud😉👍. Nevertheless I shall be tuning in matey. Look forward in seeing your progress on the van mate 😁👌👍👍👍
@@Iveavan I cant get to sleep Haha so excited. Cant wait to be under that thing welding it up!
@@Iveavan well we went to look at it but the engine had metal filings in the oil. so we walked away. really sad about it. corrosion wise it had been welded on the rear floor where yours was. the front however was perfect. really really sad about it. it was that full of partials you could have used it as metallic paint.
so we are still on the look out. we may go for a more modern one.. sadly does not look as nice.. wonder if the fronts can be swapped around. you know the older front on the newer van if the wings are changed, bumpers and lights.. 10/10 would do it.
well i joined a few facebook groups.. we will see if i can find one on them. so disappointed.
all the brake pipes had been replaced too.
Hi just subbed, how could I not after watching you with the ceiling panel
Lol, this I how it'll be for me when I start my iveco build this April, your doing a great job mate, very professional work , I'm interested in this wall covering as I this T&G is adding a lot of of wait. Keep them coming and thanks for sharing
Haha, yep it was a bit of a fight with that sodding roof panel 🤔😅, that's why I went down the road of using just 5mm plywood and very little wood for supports, I have some heavy stuff going in here, so I'm very conscious of the weight I'm adding at the moment mate. Thanks for Subbing matey 😉😊👍👍👍
How dare you … Jimmy Saville Tracksuit is my favourite colour. I am offended ….. 8;) …. hehehe … fitting that top sheet was a two man job but you done it…. bloody great work man.. well done… the router work on it was impressive…
Great job ! I was sweating for you with that bloody roof panel, like wrestling an alligator !
Thank you Roy. Haha, yes that sheet of ply was alive! 😂😅👍. That part of the job was far longer the 2 minutes matey 😉, but they was too much of effing and jeffing in those parts, to be included in this video mate 😉👍👍👍...
Great video 👍 How do you do all that without cursing!!! Well done loving every episode. Editing is fantastic 🚐🚐👍
Cheers matey 😉👍, I do try and not to swear, unless it's needed 🤬😁👌👍👍👍.
What did you use to spray the underside of the bodywork?
I used an Shultz gun 😉👍👍👍. Sealey SG14 Air Operated Underbody Coating Gun www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000RO3V14/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_I1lEDbJ7GH67Q
Looks great! How did you fix the floor battens to the van? Screws or sikaflex?
Thank you Ant 😉👍, by using very minimum screws and a lot of sikaflex matey, probably only two screws in each batten if I recall correctly matey..🙂👍👍👍
You will get there mate
But hurry spring and summer is round the corner will be time to get away
I'm back on track now, I think..... No hopefully, the most time consuming jobs have been done now bud 🤞😉
7:20 Plywood doesn't like your plans and is trying to escape on the winds of freedom 😜Are those chainmail gloves Mark 😇Great video, nice to see you ply your skills 🤣
ply your skills 🤣😂👏👌😎... Do you mean @ 5:21 bud? Where that sheet of ply decides to keel over at the thought of being put in the van 😂😉👍👍👍...
At 7:20 look out of the window 😜
@@johnmandy haha! that's what I was on about👍. 🤔my sodding clocks out on my side when I watch that bit back? 🤔👍
Jimmy savils tracksuit lmfao
What a brilliant job. Excellent skills there, what is it you do for a living? (If you don't mind me asking) Hubby's putting bets on joiner, builder or plasterer! BTW not sure if you had seen but if you're free on the 8th-10th of Feb we're having a vanlife meet up? :)
Hey up Kirsty 😊👍... Oh No! Purdie has just lost his bet😂😁... Nope none of those mentioned 😉... Myself and Dawn are both engineers, she's a Planning Engineer for an Japanese manufacturing company who kits out airports around the world. (the exciting travelling job out of our two). I work for the Germans (or 'ich arbeite für das Deutsche 😁) who manufacture Material handling equipment. All dull, dull, dull, mostly laptop diagnostic work now a days, then engineering Yawn!! 😴😂. Dave Bertholini Asked if I was coming along too, but I'm on sodding call that weekend grrrr, so I'm pretty much house bound that weekend unfortunately, so ain't going to be able to make it 😞. I did really want come up and meet you guys too, sorry about that. But hey if you guys are close by to 'ull' give us a shout 😉👍. No doubt our paths will cross when the 'Sherman tank' (Iveco) is ready 😁😉👍👍👍
@@Iveavan Purdie here buddy Daaang I never met anyone with both brains and practical skills before lol big shame you cant make the weekend but to be sure we will be down Hull way after our Northumberland trip I need to show Dangerous Dave how to catch fish on his own turf lol ;-)
Hahaha! Brains! Me bud 🤔. I think I'd be dangerous if I had some 😁. Well give us a shout when your down matey, and I come down when yeah fishing 😉😎👍👍👍
@@Iveavan hat would be awesome do you do a bit of fishing?
I used to bud, on Hornsea beach in the early 90s.... But I never caught anything after two years of trying 🤣😂.. I was clearly no good at it 🙄😉👍👍👍
Are you sure you have enough skylights and roof vents on your van conversion? I think you may need a few more.
Ohh go on then, a few more won't hurt 😁😉👍👍👍
Hated watching you struggle with that roof piece. 🤣 The old brain was screaming "fkin help him".
Haha, 😉👍, I suppose it adds comedy value to it bud 😅😁👌👍👍👍.
Great vid. I just watched a goofy silly English? man say on another video that reflectix on yr van walls attracts heat in 😮. Wait did you put it on next to wall or on top of foam. ..
I just used the refectixs as an vapour barrier over the PIR insulation, the PIR was placed straight onto the metal work first 😉👍👍👍.
Nice job, seeing as you’re going to such lengths to get a good finish you should check out the linen effect fabrics from endurefabrics.co.uk . Same type as outside van or rb components use. It’s not multi direction stretch but a way nicer fabric than that fluffy felt shit. I’m using it in my van and it is a quality finish all day.
Thank you, I've nearly covered the walls now bud, but thanks for sharing 😉👍👍👍
Such a professional looking video yet *ONLY* 327 (+1 me) subs...?!?!
Hey thank you for Subbing mate, and thanks for your encouraging comment 😉👌... I suppose its how RUclipss algorithm goes I suppose bud🤔, on the plus side, it was only around 200 subs around a month ago, so it is going up, 😊👍👍👍
Think Yazz.. "The Only Way Is Up..!!" 👍
Haha 😂😉👍👍👍
10m40s commence Circus music 😅
😂😅👌👍👍👍.
Don't airplanes skip vapour barriers altogether and just admit that there will be condensation no matter what and act accordingly...
Airplanes and vans are both metal boxes with people inside. And the R&D spent to figure out how to not get interior plane wires wet has been... shall we say intense?
faroutride.com/condensation-moisture-van/comment-page-1
Thank you for sharing that Nadine, I personally haven't suffered with condensation within the van, I suppose using 50mm PIR insulation has helped throughout the van, keeping it warm in the winter and cool in the summer 😉👍👍👍.
Better than wearing a tinfoil hat.
I can safely say, I won't be needing one of them for inside this van matey 😉👍👍👍
4 roof openings?? fuck me...
Yes 4 roof lights mate, one for the shower room, one for the sinkbasin area , one for the bedroom, and a fan in the kitchen area 😉👍👍👍
Mark Collom #Iveavan damn, you not scared of being freezing? I’m from Ireland, you’re from the UK, we both know COLD...
Haha 👌👍. No not at all bud, I've hardly had the heating on over winter, it does hold the heat in the van, plus there double glazed and come with thermal blinds 😉👍👍👍
Mark Collom #Iveavan fair enough! Godspeed...
@@MrGenedancingmachine cheers matey 👌👍👍👍
