WHAT THE PRODUCT ACTUALLY DOES
Start with a cut-ready subfloor—not a cardboard guessing game.
The strongest use case is a first-time DIY builder turning a bare 2020–2026 Ford Transit 148 high-roof cargo van into a camper or work van. The template gives you the difficult full-size perimeter so you can cut the plywood foundation accurately, dry-fit it, and move on to the rest of the build.
THE IMPORTANT DISTINCTION
3D captured. 2D delivered.
The van is measured as a three-dimensional object. The product you cut from is a two-dimensional floor outline—because plywood, foam, vinyl, paper patterns, and CNC router toolpaths are all laid out flat.
- 01Capture in 3DStructured-light scan stations record the actual surface shape around wheel wells, pillars, door transitions, and curved corners.
- 02Define the cut planeA documented elevation and floor-stack assumption determine where that 3D shape becomes the perimeter you need.
- 03Rebuild in CADThe scan is cleaned into a production outline, checked against physical control dimensions, and prepared at 1:1 scale.
- 04Deliver in 2DDXF, SVG, full-scale PDF, 4×8 nesting guidance, and the printed pattern all carry the same flat cut geometry.
WHY THE 3D CAPTURE MATTERS
It records the difficult shape before the outline is flattened.
A tape measure can miss curves, asymmetry, and the way several surfaces meet. The scan supplies dense spatial evidence; control measurements and a physical test fit are still used to verify the final outline.
WHY THE PRODUCT IS 2D
It matches the material and the tools.
A flat outline can be traced onto a sheet, printed at full scale, opened in CAD, or turned into a CNC router toolpath. A 3D mesh would add complexity without making a flat plywood panel easier to cut.
WHAT YOU ARE NOT BUYING
Not a complete 3D van model.
The pack does not model walls, ceiling, cabinetry, usable headroom, safe drilling locations, or the vertical clearance for furniture. It is a floor-boundary product for flat materials.
THE #1 USE CASE
Cut the first permanent layer once.
Imagine a 2022 Transit T-250, 148-inch wheelbase, non-extended high roof with a bare factory cargo floor. You plan to install insulation, a plywood subfloor, and sheet vinyl. Before anything else can be built, the plywood must fit around both wheel wells, the B-pillar area, the sliding-door opening, the rear-door threshold, and every curved corner.
Without a template, you measure, scribe, tape cardboard together, transfer the shape, cut, carry the panel back into the van, find the interference, remove it, trim it, and repeat. The TrueFit product is meant to replace most of that layout work with one physically checked outline.
- 01Choose the floor stack. Decide the insulation, supports, plywood thickness, finish layer, and desired perimeter clearance.
- 02Transfer the geometry. Lay the printed pattern on plywood, print the tiled PDF at 100%, or send the DXF to a CNC shop.
- 03Cut the panels. Follow the planned multi-sheet layout, keeping the file scale and orientation unchanged.
- 04Dry-fit before finishing. Place every panel in the actual van and verify edges, seams, doors, and service access before adding adhesive or flooring.
FIVE CONCRETE WORKFLOWS
One outline, several useful jobs.
The floor perimeter is the common reference. Each material still needs its own clearance, seam, and installation decisions.
PRIMARY USE
Trace and cut a plywood subfloor
Tape the full-size paper pattern together, align its registration marks, position it on the sheet layout, trace the wheel wells and door openings, then cut with a jigsaw or track-saw workflow. Dry-fit every panel before sealing or gluing.
Best pack: Printed + digital · $109FABRICATION
Have a CNC shop cut the floor
Send the 1:1 DXF to a local router shop with your material thickness and desired sheet stock. Ask the shop to confirm units, scale, orientation, tool diameter, edge offset, and how the panels will be held during cutting.
Best pack: Digital · $49FLOOR STACK
Repeat the perimeter for insulation or finish flooring
Use the same reference outline as a starting point for rigid foam, minicell, rubber, or sheet vinyl. Do not blindly make every layer identical: compressible material, wall taper, edge trim, and finish-layer seams may require a deliberate inset or overcut.
Start from the template; adjust for the layer.LOCAL PRINTING
Print the pattern near you
Take the full-scale PDF to a reprographics or blueprint shop, or assemble the tiled version from ordinary pages. Confirm the 100% scale box before tracing; “fit to page” must be off.
Best pack: Digital · $49EARLY LAYOUT
Plan floor-level equipment in CAD
Import the DXF or SVG as the real floor boundary when comparing a galley footprint, battery box, water tank, tool chest, aisle, or cabinet base. It helps answer “does this footprint fit?” before construction starts.
Useful boundary—not a complete 3D van model.REPAIR / REFIT
Replace a damaged cargo floor
Use the geometry as the starting outline when a bare cargo van’s old plywood deck is water-damaged, missing, or being replaced. Existing bulkheads, HVAC, partitions, seat hardware, and prior upfit changes still have to be measured separately.
Verify the van against the V1 exclusions.WHICH VERSION FITS YOUR WORKFLOW?
Paper for hand tools. Files for digital tools.
Printed + digital · $109
Choose this if your plan is “tape it down, trace it, and cut plywood with ordinary shop tools.” The shipped full-size pattern removes the printing and assembly step; the digital files remain available for later layers or CAD planning.
Choose printed + digitalDigital pack · $49
Choose this if you already use CAD/CAM, have access to a CNC router, can order a full-size plot locally, or are comfortable assembling a tiled PDF. It is the lower-cost route, but you own the printing or fabrication setup.
Choose digitalWHAT IT DOES NOT DO
A floor template is not a complete van conversion plan.
- It does not provide wall, ceiling, door-panel, or furniture geometry.
- It does not identify safe drilling, fastening, seat, or L-track locations.
- It does not choose insulation, material thickness, seams, adhesive, or finish flooring for you.
- It does not replace a dry fit in the van you own.
- V1 does not cover 148 EXT, passenger or crew vans, DRW/350HD, rear HVAC, or existing aftermarket floors.
THE SIMPLE VERSION
Buy the shape. Make the floor.
If avoiding a full day of measuring, cardboard templating, and iterative trimming would be worth $49—or $109 with a shipped full-size pattern—record that choice. No payment is taken during the demand test.
