We spent a week away visiting family for the holidays, and came back to a couple of snow days. I took that opportunity to finish removing the rubber floor because I couldn't work on the windows. The technique I used involved heating up the rubber floor to melt the adhesive between the plywood and the rubber. At around 100 degrees it would give up it's hold. I used a work light/heat lamp for this, and tried a heat gun as well. Here's the work lamp: https://amzn.to/2CDBdwy, and the heat gun: https://amzn.to/2D2EqXP (I bought this a long time ago and it's served me very well)  although there would be many other ways to do this with various heaters with the goal of heating up more floor at once, the lamp got it done. Also the floor scraper was clutch in the end: https://amzn.to/2CFELOY.

The robotic vacuum, Deebot, I got for Christmas. I've been watching robotic vacuums for maybe 5 years waiting for them to be reasonably priced and effective because I love extra clean floors. You have to help him out a little bit by blocking off areas for him to stay in and clean for a while. If I put him in my bedroom and close the door, come back in 10 minutes and drag my hand along the floor there is not a spec of dust. For just the bus he's going to work incredible!!
