- In this video, we show you how we built our bedroom. We put in 2 sides that can open either from the front or from the back. We also plan on adding 2 side cubbies. This is the groundwork for what is to come.

Meredith, you are amazing👍👏💕 watching you both is awesome. The things you have accomplished with a minimal amount of tools is humbling. Your fearless approach to it all is great. You are both so special. Keep up the great work. Your love for life and this awesome project is felt I appreciate you both so much for sharing your journey I hope you have an awesome day. My hart will sing with joy the day you drive by me in this amazing project.🚌the finished bus is going to be amazing😀 I know you can do it😀😀😀😀😀😀love to you and Paco
Aw, you are so sweet! Thank you so much, These are the type of comments that keep us going! Thank you so so much!
I am so proud of you, Meredith. You can do anything now. You can use more tools then I can and I'm 54 yrs old, And you're good at it. Justin and Juby said they wished they had put in a place for Laundry BC it's always in the way, He said she just knocked down a place on the wall in the bedroom area and made a place for it.. so I would use that little side table next to your bed for your laundry. Are you guys going to have a grey water tank?, If your not I would put in another freshwater tank. I would anyway that way you would have plenty of water. I don't know how I keep missing your videos.
Thank you so much Pamela! That is a great idea! And yes we plan on having a grey water tank but it will go under the bus!
Wow Really moving along great super cool
We are really trying to pick up the pace here! Thank you!
Looks great!
Thanks Gavin!
Y’all just Rock!! Can’t express enough how much I’m inspired by your magic! You are a Dream TEAM! Yea! 🙌👏🏻👏🏻😎🚌🥇🚌👏🏻👏🏻Always shine bright as you are a blessing to so many people like me who are learning along the way! (I bought my first skoolie project a few months ago & your links + vids.. are a valuable tool to getting it done!!🚌🤗) God Bless Always from Minnesota! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!! ~for your content! Love y’all much!!!
You are so sweet! Thank you so much, Congratulations on getting your bus and starting this crazy journey! We are so glad our videos have been helpful!
Make sure you drill ventilation holes on the bed platform for your mattress to be able to breath. Lots of van life and bus life people say that without them you will eventually get mold on your mattress.
Thank you! We will make sure to do that, no mold here!
You and paco are both awesome
Thank you very much!
Girl POWER!!! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾Awesome job you two! Y’all are on a roll!!! TFS
Gotta show them how it is done! haha, Thank you!
Nicely done.
Thank you very much!
BOOM!!!! What a great foundation for your bed! You rocked the framing on this king sized bed platform! Its awesome to see you start a big project like that on your own Meredith. A fearless feline you are!
Heck lets just kick these boys to the curb and convert our own but hahah!! Not that would be one interesting build hahah Thank you so much for your continuous support!
@@GustheStruggleBus Oh geez! Maybe both of our channels should have "Fearless Feline" build segments! HAHA (Brian here!)
We're both so proud of you (regardless of who's swinging the hammer, so to speak...)
Keep it up!
- B+E
MEREDITH and PACO o
Looking good!
thank you!
STOP putting yourself down. You did fine excepting when you were doubting yourself. Good job.
You make a great point!! I can do it!! Thank you!
Well done, another milestone in the build and it's good how you've got all that storage underneath and Meredith terrific what you did on your own. Stay healthy guys kind regards John
Thank you so much! We are very happy with the way it turned out! We will do our best, you too! Thank you!
Great job guys!
Thank you!
GIRL!!! Super duper impressed with you even attempting this on your own!!! Fabulous job!! We are starting our skoolie conversion (just bought less than a month ago) and starting our own channel and I just have to say we have watched TONS of you guys videos and are super appreciative of your encouragement, and information. Thank you so much for your channel! You guys are AMAZING and the build is looking GREAT! Chris and I may suck right now LOL, but with watching you guys as well as Brian and Erin (and many others), we are learning sooo much and hope to one day be semi as good as you guys! I would love to give you guys a shout out on one of our videos but I'm not sure about the rules on that...we are brand spanking new to this and honestly very new in learning about you tube as well. But we really want to give back to the community and be helpful to others like so many have been helpful to us! Rock on GIRL! The C&S Project Chris and Stephanie
Hey! Congratulations! That is so awesome, we are so glad our videos have been helpful! It takes some practice to get the hang of videoing and editing but you guys can do it!!!
You are so confident and brave taking this on by yourself!!!😁 Great job!!! 🤗
Sometimes you just have to get in there and get it done!! Thank you!
I think building a bed frame atop a row of 2 drawer metal filing cabinets is something I would try if I were building a bus or tiny house - would provide lots of lockable storage.
That is a great idea!!
you guys are giving me my inspiration keep dem videos coming
Thank you so much! We love hearing that!
Nice job! The bed looks great.
Thank you so much Stacy!
Yaaa grrrrl!!!! Been waiting for this video!
Had to keep you waiting for a little bit haha
@@GustheStruggleBus You sold us the whole seat but we only needed the front edge (because you kept us on the edge of our seats! Get it!!?? :)
great job
Thank you!
You go girl. I wish we were friends ☺️ you’re so cool.
Aw thank you so much!!
Great job little lady. I'm sure the hubby was supper proud that you took charge to suprise him.. 👍👍
Thank you so much! I can at least say he was surprised haha
I this she did a wonderful job
Thank you! Wonder woman!!
👏GET 👏IT👏GIRL ❤️
Hhahah thank you!! Gotta put in that work!
We recently purchased a bus and started demolition.... and OMG now I get why you call it Gus the Struggle Bus....
1. Congratulations!!!!! and 2.HAHAHA welcome to the struggle!! IT is fun but hard
Nice bed woo hoo
Thank you!
Im new too your vidoes. Great job on this one
Hey Joe!! We are so glad you found us, thank you so much for watching!
Awesome job! Don’t forget to have some holes or add a system under the bed for moisture control.
Of course! Thank you so much!
Such an amazing video! And even more I truly love that you did all of this! Obviously it is a partner build but I loved watching you figure this all out! Such an inspiration!
I couldn't agree with you more! I am so proud of Meredith for this huge accomplishment. she totally kicked butt!! 😀
Awesome job you both... Hey are you guys planning on putting holes throughout the platform for your bed so there is air flow??? Cause if not you will get mold fast. Just incase, you probably already knew that, I'm just trying to help just incase. This is so exciting on where you are at in the build!!! I'm so happy for you two!!!!
We sure are, we just had not gotten to that part yet lol, but thank you! That is so sweet!
I hate the cubby at the head of my bed because it has one door. If I could do it again, I would have multiple doors so I don’t have to move everything to open it.
That is a great point! I never would have thought of that !!
Looking fantastic, well done to u both, r u drilling holes for air circulation on the board.
Thank you very much! Yes we will make sure to do that!
you guys are building a awesome bus,,,,really love the vids and you are married to a super woman !!!
and thats a huge bed ,,great job girl
lol I hope he know that, thank you!
you need to put sumting between the matras and the bedbottom or there will be mold develloping as the moisture people produce while sleeping cant escape / air out
czcams.com/video/R1PTfZJbc9w/video.html
allso a matras is realy heavy and if you want to move stuff inside theres not enough headroom to tilt the matrass straight up to the side , wat you could do is make a liftsystem with pullies and rope to temporarily be able to lift the matras with the plywood up of the bedframe untill its flat against the ceiling where its out of the way and above the backdoor
or make sumting that you can lift the matras up ontoo under the ceiling (like two 2 by 4's that you can put across the bedroom over the top shelve in a cabinet at each side and under the lifted matras ) or buy a 2 piece matras
Thank you very much! We plan on cutting holes and looking into one of those mattresses that go under to help with airflow. Yes we plan on getting gas struts as soon as we are able! Thank you
Hey Paco shes was trying to surprise you😥
Im used to it
we're sure missing your smiling face Meredith, hope all is well with you and yours.
Thank you!
@@GustheStruggleBus Thanks for responding, Glad to hear from you, hope you get back to posting again? Seems like all my favorite Skoolie People all stop posting. Did I Miss Something?
