Coming along so well, can’t wait to see it finished. I loved your last van, so I know I’ll love this one as well. I just had to have some repairs/modifications done on my van and the 80-20 construction made it much easier. Of course I don’t do a thing a thing, lol the builder did. I have zero skills but really enjoy watching the process and the thought that goes onto the construction of a van conversion. You have undoubtedly helped many DIY’rs with their builds. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing more 🐶🚐🇨🇦♥️
This is going to be a fantastic product once finished. Great job it's the type of build I am looking to do. This gives me the planning thoughts on what the layout will look like
Good job. 👍 I'm planning a vinyl floor too. Too late now, but if you turn up the vinyl at the edges just a little where it's not seen, it stops any dirt and spilled liquids getting under the floor.
Hey Scott! Great job on the build this far. What were the top few reasons why you chose this flooring? Do you have any concerns with it being such a permanent flooring type? What about how the glue or the vinyl interacts with the radiant floor heat?
Glue getting everywhere ... I have the same problem with mustard. No matter what I'm eating, what I've put it on or how little I've used, mustard always finds it's way on me, on the table, on the floor. Don't have the same problem with ketchup, oddly. One of the reasons I went with sheet Marmoleum in my build, as opposed to typical vinyl plank: no seams.
Hi Scott, floor looks great! in your van build tour from last year, you mentioned very briefly your 'cradlepoint' router, and that you either cover it or would cover it in another video. But I couldn't find anything about it in other vids. Did you talk about it? I am really frustrated with all the internet variations there are out there, the one plan I was about to get is on hold due to ATT bombing in Nashville! So I would like to know if you are still using the Cradlepoint solution, and if you are happy with it. I contacted them today, and someone is supposed to call me, but it is pricey, so I thought I'd ask before jumping in with both feet...thanks for anything you can share about it!
Hey Scott, thanks for another high quality video. Do you remember which marine vinyl company makes that particular flooring? The color and pattern is nicer looking than anything I've found so far.
Hey Scott, I always see that the hydronic heated floor system has the floor with that aluminum tape, what is the purpose of that? Thank you for all your work!
Hey Scott. What did you use to cover the door trim/edges and the back? Also, did you use some type of caulking or foam between the floor edges against the walls?
Great videos, and very helpful info. Did Vanlifetech sell you the radiant heat floor and let you install it as a kit, or did you have one of their affiliates install it for you? If you installed it yourself what process did you have to go through so they would sell it to you as a kite, and any special knowledge or skills required to install their system? I would think its pretty straight forward.
Thanks, I was able to install it myself as I have a very good understanding of hydronic systems to Troy was ok with me doing it myself. I can completely understand why he doesnt let most people do the DIY approach and thats because he doesnt have the documentation or capacity to be answering on going support questions. I know as he grows his company he plans to make it so anyone can install the floor themselves and have amazing documentation on it.
Where did you purchase your flooring? We are looking to use it in our new van conversion also! Do you feel it will be easy to clean/maintain? Thanks for the awesome video!!!
@@scottadamson6116 did you have to buy a whole roll or did they sell it by the linear yard. I looked at their online catalog but didn’t see where you can buy it by the yard. Thanks for your reply!
Hey Scott great videos I’m wondering about durability with dogs scratches etc. also does it have to be installed warm rest at a certain temp etc have an awesome day
Hey its the same stuff they use in boats and stuff so Im assuing its super durable so far I can say it will hold up much better that than the Home Depot vinyl plank in my first van. As for install Im not sure..... I have the shop so it wasnt something I had to worry about.
@@scottadamson6116 Hey Scott thanks your the man , What wall mount fan did you use in your first Van ? I'm in Whitefish MT wish we could get up to Canada again

Thanks TIm!
Good morning Scott. I’m excited to see this van in action.
Thanks for watching!
Hi Scott, I’m from Southern Ontario. Love your videos! They’ve inspired me to begin building a van of my own.
That is awesome!
I know this is an older video but keep em coming Scott! Loving the channel :)
Glad you like them!
I really like your videos! thank you :)
Glad you like them!
so clean and so profıtıonal, thank you
You are welcome!
Most vinyl adhesive you are supposed to let the glue tack up (dry a little) then it will not ooze out.
Good job. 👍 I'm planning a vinyl floor too.
Too late now, but if you turn up the vinyl at the edges just a little where it's not seen, it stops any dirt and spilled liquids getting under the floor.
Thanks for the tips!

Yeah seams will almost pull apart overtime ask anyone.

Luv your videos. 7 months later would you do the vinyl again? Scratching, wrinkling…?

Also interested
The stuff I used is called Nautolex comes in 6 or so colors.
@@scottadamson6116 Much appreciated, thank you.
I see you are using Nautolex but which color did you go with? Thanks!

How did the radiant floor heating work out? Do you need any other heating or is that sufficient?

Just saw in the comments what you used. I ordered some samples.
Thanks I got it from Jackson

Why not install everything and do the floor last?
I'm floored... :)
haha thank you
It's been soooooo long. How is the new van build going???
New video coming out today! and I have videos for at least the next month! Just so much work and now Im getting caught back up with the video editing.
@@scottadamson6116 so much work. Totally get it. You are awesome and doing great work!❤
Installing the vinyl over the entire floor also serves to waterproof it.
Very true.
I was about to applaud your ability to wear 'normal' clothes when doing this type of work.. then I kept watching 😂
haha yeah socks and sandals are a pretty regular thing on the van build.
