    Your bus is beautiful. You can actually see it’s a labor of love and we’re sure that when you find the time you will definitely enjoy it even more and be happy to did it the way you did because it’s an expression of both of you. It’s just awesome.

    Smart people in this bus, running all the electrical behind those 1x10 boards! I’ve always thought, people that run the electrical under the ceiling boards are going to have a hard time fixing things if something goes wrong.

  • @GrandmotherSeasea
    @GrandmotherSeasea Před rokem +2

    I haven’t finished the whole thing but generally they seem balanced and happy together to me. It’s good to keep talking together and taking turns talking is natural. There’s a lot of excitement to share everything.

    Get the baby latches for the fridge! They make them for things like toilet lids and fridges, works awesome!

  • @stacymoore4935

    I know you’ve gotten flak in the past for these longer videos, but they are so helpful-just to hear the reasoning behind people’s decisions and about the pitfalls they encountered along the way. Much appreciated.
    Lovely, airy build. Let me guess-Otis is the drooler...

  • @Kimberley_Black_White_TV

    I know this is a couple of years old, but I would suggest getting another 50 gallon water tank since they mentioned they had extra garage space. Or whatever will fit. But I LOVE this bus. Nice job "Two Pups & Us!"

    Excellent. That counter epoxy is a win.
    I wonder if the mini-swamp cooler is contributing to the ceiling warp. Tiny houses & moisture...

    • @littlemisssunshine2931
      @littlemisssunshine2931 Před 4 lety +2

      That was my first thought too when they mentioned filling it with a gallon of water. All that water has to end up somewhere.

    @debragreen9778 Před 3 lety +1

    I absolutely love this bus. You make it seem effortless! A lot of thought went into it. I love the vanity area. I agree at one point u may need a covering for clothes n pantry. I think white shutters would be perfect n "effortless " to install! Well at least to open n close. God bless u on your travels!

  • @sheridesmarais796

    We have a similar fridge/freezer on our sailboat. Husband made some latches out of aluminium attached to the side, that swing over a set screw in the edge of the doors. They have never opened yet. For your pantry, try hanging a drape in front.

    I really like your bathroom and especially your vanity area.it you could just put a curtain over your pantry. I lived in a mobile home for a while and I used curtains on all of my closets. Cheaper, colorful and you can see everything in your closets with no doors in the way!!

  • @FirstSuiGeneris
    @FirstSuiGeneris Před 4 lety +8

    _On those diesel air heater, if you have the LCD controller you can set up the two timers within it, super simple to set the time. Make sure you throw it on high, like once a month for about 5 minutes to help with carbon build-up if you that quick little tip it should last for a long time, and maintenance-free._

    • @shandelebroyles1099
      @shandelebroyles1099 Před 4 lety

      I saw on another video that you have to run them on high all the time to avoid carbon build up

    • @FirstSuiGeneris
      @FirstSuiGeneris Před 4 lety +1

      Shandele Broyles _No, is not true! Because it jumps up back the initial start up with the bringing glow plug up to burn off excess fuel that’s with inside the chamber. But it good once a month to run it on high, it help to stay clean, it’s just maintenance if your would like to keep it healthy and clean. During winter and colder months._

    • @FirstSuiGeneris
      @FirstSuiGeneris Před 4 lety +1

      A quick side-note. You only have to run it on high for about three minutes when you do that, then put it back down to your normal settings

  • @catgotyourtongue8279

    So much to love here...those countertops are gorgeous...and the placement of the bathroom sink--I have not seen anything like that. The only thing I would do differently is paint the front door yellow to match the other yellow on the exterior...that would look sharp. But that's a personal preference thing. Really enjoyed this video...thanks for sharing and all the best to you both.

  • @littlemisssunshine2931

    Love that your worktops can be used to cut on and have hot pans put on them, eliminates the need for chopping boards and if they are plywood they must be lighter than regular worktops. Thanks for sharing.

    @robertahill7400 Před 3 lety

    I love the shape of the ceiling. I would also remove the fire place and do a love seat lounger. Have your TV mounted. Or even the dogs own bed. My dog sleeps where ever & usually its right by me. I love your bus. 👍 Kudos guys ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I give it 4 stars.

  • @sherryyarger3753
    @sherryyarger3753 Před 2 lety

    I love the look of your counter tops! People use a type of baby lock for those. Seems like my mom and dad had a nail on a chain they used to use for their fridge. You could hang some fabric to cover your ppantry, or make a little framme with caning or a thin metal design in it. Love the color of your duvet. I love the way you did your safa with slip covers for easy washing. Very nice home!!

  • @deanhueter2866

    great video. However, you need to install brake lights on that extended bumper. In many states, blocked or obstructed brake lights is a big fine.

    • @FaeRose
      @FaeRose Před 3 lety +1

      Pretty sure that rectangle in the center on the bumper he did has a break light on it. Also bus's have break lights top middle and bottom on the back so he still has break lights.

    I love the cedar planks that you used for the shower so I went to Lowe's and checked them out. If you got what I looked at it says that it's only for dry conditions. I would be careful about mold. That is something that you don't even want to get started in your home.

  • @BTFOOMNY
    @BTFOOMNY Před 3 lety

    The counter and closet stick out past the refrigerator. It should be simple enough to mount a small flagpole base on the side of the counter. Then, when you are going to travel, you insert a dowel into the flagpole holder at such an angle it crosses both doors. The other nd could fit into a brace on the closet wall.

    Alternatively, it should be simple enough to superglue several hooks to the doors, and several more on the side of the refrigerator. When you go to travel you just put a piece of string, or a rubber band, around each set of hooks.
