Like B350 in MN have been getting cranky and irritable because of the cold weather, rain and snow was keeping me from working on the van. Have even gotten to the point where I was thinking about building a taller shop so I could work on the van inside.
Today was warmer and dry so I could get back to work. The first thing I did was to cut up the baltic birch plywood for the kitchen counter and drawers. It is all stacked and labeled waiting for the insulation to go in.
The next thing was to index the plywood floor to the insulation below. The reason for this is to align the holes I made in the insulation directly above the factory seat anchor bolt locations. The first part of the alignment was to verify that the holes in the insulation were directly over the factory anchor bolts. Then set the floor plywood into position and drill several holes in the corners through the plywood and into the insulation. Nails were inserted in the holes as work progressed to keep the plywood and insulation aligned.
Then pull the plywood and insulation out of the van and set the insulation on top of the plywood aligning them by reinserting the nails into the holes.
Once everything is aligned apply spray-paint into the holes in the insulation. The paint shows up on the correct side of the plywood.
The reason to locate the mounting points is to use them for cabinet anchors and others for seat anchors. The paint spots show the anchor locations so holes can be drilled after figuring out cabinet and seat locations.
