You did a great job on your front door and the double-cylinder lock seems very sturdy.
Great information. Thank you. The music and the attempt to entertain is unnecessary. Your ideas and hard work speak for themselves.
What happened ?
I'd like to use a larger undercount sink. Can the sink be supported by the plywood countertop eliminating the mounting brackets? Manufacturer recommends 1.5" on each side for brackets.
Thank you sir! I have a friend who had this issue. My thought would be replacing the push button with just a switch to by pass the door buzzing
Thanks, great content
Should only connect PVC and ABS with a mechanical coupler. If you don’t then make sure you use Oatey Green.
You know when I was watching you AND YOUR HUSBAND .... it would have been nice to know what happened to this whole thing but you couldn't be bothered to update anyone on the name change... The last I saw was when you were doing cement work.... Not cool at all!!!!!?
Did you grind the rivet heads down on the outside too? If so, how did you make sure the metal stayed in place? Thanks!
How has it held up all these years? I’m building my schoolie and wondering if you ended up getting leaks?
Would love to know how you guys separated the panels to open this way: I’m assuming it was originally a accordion style open to the inside like mine and trying to think of ideas that aren’t framing in a whole new home door but using these two panels I have.
Lots of thermal bridging still, will have condensation still.
@ 8:54 did you cut that for the top to be 2 inches? bottom piece 4?
So glade came across your video as we will be looking for a company in the Houston area this fall when we get to that phase of our bus. So now we know of at least one company that knows what they are doing.
Have you sold your bus yet?? If not VERY INTERESTED
Nice job you go girl
Other lithium batteries are just under $300. Why are these so much? Are six batteries typical for a build, or is this extravagant?
Hey there i hope this works for me, i bought a 2005 e-450 diesel school bus that somebodody had cut out a lot of the wiring i got taillights and all but while driving apparently the switch was bad or going bad anyhow it cut off and now it will not crank i did not even know about an interlock and just saw the sticker saying emerg door must be unlocked, so since my friend locked it before i drove it home i think that is what happened to mine is the switch came loose and now it thinks the door is locked even when it is not, i will be trying this.. thanks
Huh. Haven't gotten any notifications from this channel, in forever. Wow, so much has changed! Your bus looks awesome! Very nice work! Mine got squashed by a tree. Working on an ambulance now, with a 24v Victron system. Built like a tank. No more getting squished by a tree, whilst doggo and I are asleep. Wish I could afford Gus, but, I'm knee deep already. Best wishes to you two!
Learned alot
I'm sorry, I do not see a price? Is this beauty still for sale?
I was shocked to hear the Guss was for sale. I never saw any videos of your travels . After all that hard work, please tell me that you had some great adventures traveling and living in your bus? Good luck in the future.
I knew I would find it!
1,2,3, and to the four, I hear ya guys are or I sell Gus what ya doin that for? Removing my wires and disconnecting all my emergency wires so that the bus won’t even recognize it
This is so easy to follow. I am surprised so few people have viewed this considering how well the camera is managed. Thank you Gus family.
Awesome
That is some overkill on the kilmat.
"Promo sm"
after all that hard work you are selling it. ok whats going on?
Omg guys I love you Soo much,m trying to learn some things from you guys,I'm trying to buy a school bus very soon and I take ideas, love you ❤️
You can do it!
My story is funny, Im a little bit old I don't know too much about the electric system you guys plus I don't know too much about computers and I wish to speak with you on the phone because I'm soo scared to do this project 😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪🥴, but I keep watching CZcams
Well I’d like to know how much first and then I’d like to say I hope you guys are okay… I’ve missed you but definitely been referring back to Gus videos for my Bertha. Plans got put on hold so many times that I’m still in the stripping her down stage. I also wanted to tell you I live right around the corner from you in Lockhart. Ever wanna trade info or advice lmk… your in a beautiful area… can’t wait for your future videos ❤
Thank you so very much
Very beautiful❤❤

I really enjoyed your channel, the two of you did a great job.
Thanks so much
I am forever greatful to both of you for your knowledge, inspiration, motivation, and general sense of fun and the light-hearted way you created and shared your build videos. ❤ I wish you so much fun, love and adventure in the next chapter in your book of life! From so many, your energies are inspiring and uplifting, from the skoolie community and beyond! The way in which you share your light is incredible ❤ Thank you so much!
Wow, thank you so much! You are very kind
I’ve used all your videos for my own build! Thank you for the help!!
I am so glad to hear that! Thank you so much for the support
I'm thinking out loud here. I'm pondering this decision and wondering the why of taking on the task. If I have a functional emergency hatch, one that was securely attached or could be adequately resealed to the roof, and all I wanted was some additional light, why not simply modify the existing hatch, by adding a series of small ports in the hatch lid, to allow some light to pass through? Given that buses seem to have lots of windows, I'm questioning the specific desire to add another window on the roof, in place of the hatch. Where, if the installation should eventually fail, it has the greatest possibility to leak into my living space and cause significant damage to any ceiling work I've completed. Considering that the company that originally designed and manufactured the hatch created it to survive and function properly for the specific duty it was performing, substituting a wood frame for the vinyl hatch seems like a gamble. But then, so many of these transformations seem to be hinged on similar gambles. The saying that keeps going through my mind is, "If it isn't broken, don't fix it." There seems to be plenty of light entering the interior via the many windows that are already in place. I'll, no doubt, be adding additional interior lighting to illuminate the inside. So, is the gamble and added labor of completely transforming this part of the original design configuration worth the risk of possible failure down the road? It's a challenging decision for me to make.
The choice is completely yours! If that would work best for you and make the most sense than that's what you should do. I did it because the extra light makes a huge difference and very much worth it for me. The hatches have had no issues or leaks and have been awesome skylights as well.
Outstanding interior. Truly dig your style & layout. Simply awesome! Best of luck on your next journey. Peace from West Texas.
Thank you very much!
How much?
Please reach out to me at mapgps17@gmail.com :)
You guys are good
Thank you!
I need help figuring out the electrical system I’m doing for my bud, I believe our bus is the same size as yours
I thought spray foam expanded way more than that but it still looks good!!
Some kinds do! Thank you so much!
Seriously? No words just sad instrumental ? 😢
Just a tour of the final build :)
Why are you all selling?? It is amazing
Thank you, its time for a new adventure
Meredith. You have been sorely missed. I think I speak for all of us by saying, I hope you are well.
Thank you so much!
I'm surprised you're selling Gus. Your videos helped me with my bus build, and they still are. I hope you're ok. I look forward to seeing you on your next adventure. I'm sure your YT channel will be full of more adventures. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much!
