Ok so today I'm going to start the interior. I read in a van book once, that having a van us like having your own private hotel room with you wherever you go. So with that in mind today I'm just laying the foundations. Some 6mm mdf will make the floor flat, and some 16mm mdf for the bed base. Cost about $120 from bunnings so we'll see how far we get.

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH DON'T USE MDF!!!!!!, ITS SOOOOOOO HEAVY , ABSORBS WATER LIKE WHEAT BIX...... use it only to router a shape into/out of and or to paint (you can get a mirror finish) yes ply does absorb water but wont swell as much (it only takes a little water with mdf) and will hold screws alot better in (thin woods) good luck dano

I'll probably paint the visible bits, but the floor will be covered in carpet and laminate. I hope to keep the inside of the van dry, so hopefully it don't be too much of a problem
