After almost a week of looking like an oven ready chicken/space capsule it was time to cover the celotex, solar mounts and about 3 tins of expanding foam.
I've gone for 5.5mm ply over the 3.6 as it's a bit stiffer and I'm glad I did as it still tries to wander around following the tension of the screws etc...
I decided to ignor the option of a full sheet with a 150mm strip as that was going to be a pig to fit a full sheet with a roof-light and cables to allow through. I just split the van down the middle and used 4 sheets instead of 3 with large off-cuts I can use as the bed bases etc...
Bit of jiggery-pokery with scribing in the front and rear, some went without a hitch some must have been stretching between the jigsaw and roof!
All glued (Stixall clear) and screwed into the wooden battens.
Van has now become much darker, but the light grey (silver they call it) carpet should keep it light, that's a epic for another time!
