[@mikeholland9264]

i learn so much from your very concise videos , thank you for all you both do

[@DaveTheDasher77]

Great job,,, Those pre cut ply boards are a great help.

[@ScoobieDee]

This is how I did my van super simple and super effective . I even managed to re install the fiberboard the van came with which fits so well it doesn’t move, almost floating on top . I did use four of the original ankor points too. I didn’t even use any batton underneath on my vw crafter . The floor is solid without it

[@itsallfabrication]

Can't wait to see how the van turns out, pre-cut floor was a fab idea.

[@johncullerton]

Looks really good, that pre-cut floor looks like a godsend. Looking forward to the next one.

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Thank you 🙏

[@shopace]

Hi, do you have a link to the seller for the pre-cut flooring. Cheers!

[@SACREDTRAVELLER]

Link is up above - Mel has pinned it for you ❤

[@mikebourke1185]

Well done..it's going to be Snug ..Stay Free and Safe Travels 🙏

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Thank you 🙏

[@denisecafferky2248]

That pre cut flooring looks very handy

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Oh yea 👍👍

[@Deiseboi]

I went abit over kill on my floor i put 10mm dodo then 25mm insulation board then a 5mm vapor barrier then floor unlay..one half has 8mm wooden flooring then other under bed I put carpet then loft insulation followed by 7mm tongue and groove...lol

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Nice one 😂👍

[@dannywilson5852]

Is 50ml insulation board too much as I was thinking of using that...

[@parkay3560]

nice job guys! You can do the floor in my next van, Mel lol.

[@SuperLewis05]

I just finished a Transit SWB .My advice to you if you can afford it is to get a pop top roof and get it done now . My build was really hard work cos I'm 6ft . I'm a tradesman and the jobs that should have taken an hour took all day . I did it on my own and it took me all time added up . Probably 5 solid weeks. It should not have taken that long 😆. I couldn't afford a pop top but if i ever build another it will be with a higher roof or fit pop top at the beginning of the build

[@y0rkiebar]

Monty looks well impressed with your success at 10:00 in the vid. 🤣

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Lol 😂

[@Michael-m4y]

Hi Mel No videos on becky's channel of the build ? so far

[@jonwallace7015]

Becky knows what she's up to

[@Casualfulltime]

That thumbnail 😁

[@nikoloko5561]

Hi you two Just a thought but would it be a good idea to have made some paper templates of those boards Whilst they were unfixed outside the van so if you needed to cut some in the future it would make the Job so much easier. Great video stay safe 👍😎

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Great idea 👍

[@bennystokes8481]

not sure i would put batons down..straight to the floor with that insulation..saves a bit of height.ply floor then lino or t&g but im sure this is going to be super..

[@bennystokes8481]

i counter sink bolts into 18mm ply for the floor and then drill into that for the cupboards etc.

[@robincastree]

I can't find the van conversion on Becky's Channel. There are loads of vids but nothing about the transit?

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

She’s still editing the videos 👍

[@eyeswideopen8951]

Hi mate, do you have a brother called Dave? Just watched the expawers latest video, and I swear Dave, is a clean shaven version of you.

[@bluegrass31]

Hi Mel - good timing as I want to fit my floor next. Can you provide a link to the ply flooring supplier please?

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

here you go ebay.us/4GcJrH

[@daddywh1t3]

Wondering if the dodomat on the floor is going to be as effective as it is designed to be? Leaving the paper on the back and not sticking it down to the panels surely isn’t going too be as effective with its sound deadening? Great idea if it works

[@samwatkins5492]

What paper?

[@loony457]

Hi these vids are good entertaining to , but a question for you both , Insulating ? Can you use polystyrene balls ? Thanks

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Thank you I think it’s possible but would be potentially messy 👍

[@monkeybeatz5372]

What thickness of Dodo mat insulation did Becky use?

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

15mm

[@munkehpower]

mel chose the thumbnail

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Yes I did how could you tell 😂🤣👍

[@SACREDTRAVELLER]

🙄😂

[@raysharrock8569]

I got a quick question for you I'm going to cut through from my box van into the cab where can I get the rubber seal and what's the name of it

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

I have no idea 🤷‍♂️

[@simondickens5056]

Great vlogs guys thanks. Mel can you let me know the name of Becky's channel please?

[@Ron-wk7eo]

Hi Mel , do you live on the road all the time , I'm a old guy thinking of living in my van,, how easy is it regards Ron

[@angeladawn805]

You could do worse than watch Mel's back catalogue of videos, that'll give you a good idea. You can get ideas from Bob Wells (Cheap RV Living) or Chrome (Vancityvanlife) - but I always think it's best not to get too carried away with romantic van lifestyles in other countries than your own. (the laws, weather, costs are totally different). 🚙

[@BigVanSmallWorld]

Easy I’m full timer 👍🍻👍

[@delticrobo]

Excuse me if I am asking a silly question but what's the link for Rebecca's van build?
