Finishing Up the Van Floor! | DIY Camper Build Ep10
It's hard to believe, but we finally finished up the van floor in episode 10! Since I plan to use the van for camping and as a mobile workshop, it was all about building the most sturdy and versatile floor possible!

📋 Today's TODO List: For the construction of the flooring panel I'm using laminated birch plywood (phenolic faced), due to its incredible strength and durability, especially regarding the elements it will be exposed to. First I insulated and carpeted the battery compartment which turned out to be quite tricky... Getting the van floor insulated with all the low-/highspots was also a bit complicated. I opted for two layers of 10mm and 19mm of Kflex/Armaflex rubber insulation to even everything out. Now most of the van floor has 29mm of insulation which should be plenty! Since I'll build all the camping furniture to be removable and plan to use the van as a mobile workshop I fitted some aluminum airline rails/tracks that I can use to secure loads in the future.

Hi. Looking at getting one of these Doblos to turn into a camper. Is this the maxi version/ LWB?? Thanks
@@krisorr6683 Hi Kris! Awesome to hear!! It's the LWB version. The short one only is about 180cm in the back (vs 210cm) which would be really cramped up... let me know how it goes✌🏼
@@lukestoolboxthanks for the reply. Yes. This is the one I’m looking at. Just worried about head height also. Brilliant videos. Will be following along
@krisorr6683 yeah head height is a bit tricky. if you want a van where you can sit up comfortably in the back without having to give up too much cargo space, you should go for the high roof version... I just liked this one since you can park in all underground parkings, and if you really have to sit inside since it's raining or whatever you have two perfectly good seats in the front. but lots of trade offs with building out a tiny van🙃 btw little trick to see if it's SWB or LWB: the sliding door track/rail ends right at the back of the van for the SWB version, whereas on the LWB there's about 30cm left between track & trunk
Just come from wills whereabouts
love the vibes mate ! lovely music, lovely small comedic timings (you trying to put on that glove is such a relatable moment). keep it up !
haha thanks so much, Rupert! glad to have you on board :) will do!
Looks great.
Thanks Christopher✌🏼
Really good video!
Thanks Fabio!!
we're already on episode 10! how crazy is that?? if there's any car mechanics who has a suspicion why my old little van has starting problems, please let me know :) thanks for watching and hopefully see you soon✌🏼
Wow! so cool to see the finished floor! Watching your videos is always such a great way to start the weekend.
happy weekend!!
You can always expect good videos from Luke, you are really trying and you should have at least a million subs dude! ❤
Legend!
@lukestoolbox thanks bro
Bro your better than MrBeast
Nice video like always ❤
Thanks😄
Colours are literally super nice! I wished our window sill was sanded down as nice as yours instead of painted over with white. Great work!
@@nschweiz4248 Thanks a ton :))
hey guys! this has to be my favorite yoga studio update so far :D not gonna last long tho I think, with the oak flooring soon going in😋 how would you have painted the room?
Good job man, it was a pleasure to watch this video.
@@Username_chrisbarrio Thank you Chris!!
Nice man, no school for the rest of the year. Good videos like always, you never disappoint! ❤🎉
Thank you so much! Always excited seing you tune in again :))
Love the build series! I Can't wait till the trip to the North Cape!
Thanks for following along👊🏼

Perfeito
Hey there, thanks for tuning in! How is it already the middle of November tho🤯 While you're watching this episode I'm writing my last college exam of the year, so hopefully I can use the rest of the month for the van build :) Anyway, happy weekend and we'll see each other again in two weeks🍂 Cheers, Luke✌🏼
Welcome to Luke's Toolbox👊🏼 Let's Surprise my Mom with her Dream Yoga Studio!! Subscribe and follow along to see which colors we chose, cheers✌🏼
Page 3, section 2, paragraph 5 of the Old Guy Handbook states that i need to lecture you, so here it goes. The battery; Get yourself a cheap multimeter. You will need it for other projects in the future anyway. Then learn how to check your charging system. It's very simple, takes just a few minutes and you can find several videos on youtube explaining it. Basicaly, you need to be charging at between 13v and 14v while the car is running right after you start it. Anytime you have a battery issue or question the life of a battery, Always, always, always take 2 minutes and check the charging system with a multimeter. If you have trouble figuring it out, hit me back and I can talk you through it. Trust me on this because I don't want some other Old Guy to have to rescue you in the middle of nowhere on your long trip. And BTW, you have a great attitude. Make sure you never loose that.
Hahaha appreciate your Hadbook👌🏼 I did end up getting one! It seems that everything is fine with the new battery (except for still mostly starting up on second try... but oh well). Thanks a lot, happy to have you following along :)
Wow! Skandivaian livestock is so violent! Didn't know farming in the North was so dangerous! 🤣🤣🤣 Yes. I understand the frustration with the headlights. When I was your age, headlights in all cars were designed to be taken out easily, in just a few minutes. Today, engineers just don't seem to have the skills or the common sense that they used to. The best thing to do is consult the manual or an online tutorial..... for a simple headlight! It's rediculous.
Haha we're not in Scandinavia quite yet - still in Switzerland :) Yepp it's crazy... I ended up just polishing them up, which worked like a charm! (in episode 8)
Really enjoying your videos so far! Good job! About the battery - when the car is running it should be between 13 to 14v (depending on the loads at the time and the alternator setup) and should drop to around 12-12.5V quite quickly after the you shut it down. So I believe the battery and alternator are OK
Thanks a lot for watching and your input!! Happy to hear they are doing alright :D
The aluminum side of Alubutyl will greatly reduce road heat if applied to the entire floor.
I don't mind some cow content. Would prefer Roadrunner content but it is what it is. 😇
😝👍
🥭👍
So cool seeing how the van build comes along! Great video to watch on a cozy afternoon
Glad you're enjoying the ride! 🚐💨
Luke - where did you get the sweatshirt? Lol - I live very close to Port Washington where that school is. Did you study abroad?
haha that's awesome! i spent a year in green bay and went to bay port hs :)
oh you’re right - bay port is in Green Bay. For some reason I thought it was port Washington’s high school. I live in Milwaukee!
Yupp, lots of places with similar names around there! Milwaukee is so cool😄
Thanks for watching you all👊🏼 How cool was that headlight repair kit?? I wish I had that idea 2 months ago😂🥲 Please let me know if you have any clue regarding the battery voltage or the alternator! Happy weekend :)
Gute Besserung, Luke!
Danke dir!!
Nice work man! ❤
Thanks a lot :))

Excelente serviço
my pleasure🫡
Don't stress over the YT stats, it will drive you nuts. Just keep making good content and eventually you'll get a boost! Also, too bad you couldn't use the original sub floor that you took out - already fit to size.
Yeah I know, it's a tough game sometimes🫠 thanks for the encouragement!!👊🏼
🐄🐄🐮🚙🐄🐄 Keep it up!
Another great one!
Great Series so far, subbed! Also, grab a dummy battery for your camera so you don't have to worry about charge. Just put it in the camera an plug it in! (at least I think you don't have a goPro, not sure if it will work for those)
awesome to have you on board!! good idea, i just ended up buying a bunch more batteries :) a fixed cable on my camera would get me super anxious about tripping over it and ripping my camera to the ground🫡
@@lukestoolbox LOL very very true! Cameras are crazy expensive!
