    In our quest for seeking out a more healthy and sustainable lifestyle, we made a plan that includes zero waste living, tiny home living and full-time travel. We considered buying an RV, looked at trailers and airstreams but settled on doing a bus conversion for our off the grid, tiny house on wheels. We bought a 1996 MCI 102 D3 coach bus and with the Bus Demolition and Interior Shell complete, now we turn it into our Tiny Home on Wheels!

    Watch Season 3: Bus Build series here: • The Bus Build - Rehabi...
    In its previous life, our MCI bus was used as a school bus, although we don't think we can legitimately call it a skoolie. We are confident that converting our bus into a class a motor home will have challenges, but doing a massive overhaul and remodel on a motorhome / RV remodel didn’t seem to align with the off grid bus life we were aiming for.
    In Season 4 we share the interior build as we turn it into our home.

    Despite previously having absolutely no interest in bus conversions, I've been glued to this channel since it started. As someone who also makes CZcams videos I know the insane amount of time that they take to film and edit. Not only are you building a bus, you are building a legacy of knowledge that future bus builders can use to help them with their own projects. The kind of commitment and willing to share is amazing and I wish you guys all the luck in the world for the next stage of the build. There are thousands of people out there who love what you're doing and really appreciate the time and effort you spend to put these videos together. Please come back and read your supportive comments whenever you're feeling low. During the time of Covid 19, where we're all stuck inside, each video has felt like going on a little adventure with Mela, Don and the cats. I've shared your hopes, successes and (many) failures... you've been my escape for the last 12 months, and I hope you'll soon be able to escape yourself. Sending love xxx

    We had a mouse on our transit bus die and couldn’t find it anywhere. Somehow the thing had gotten in the box fan and we were blowing dead mouse air all over the place. Stuck for two weeks!!!! Finally found it. We set traps after seeing a mouse run through. We caught 12-15 before we got it under control again. Put up those ultra sonic repellants.

  • @Ssidistik
    @Ssidistik Před 3 lety +6

    When your floor starts having problems popping up it is because it is a floating floor. You NEVER put it down until after the walls are up. Installing anything onto a floating floor ensures the popping.
    Only thing I can tell you is when this starts to happen you will want to go around each item mounted to that floor and trace cut everything so it becomes a floating floor again.
    EDIT oh yeah, you are doing a GREAT JOB.

    Just a word of advise to potential coach converters ,keep in mind that all coaches Prevost or MCI come from the factory with 6” more head room than regular (Greyhound) coaches. So if you are a short person a regular coach would be no problem,if you are TALL then your better off buying a older model motor home that needs to be redone ,it might cost you a little more but it will save you many headaches and TONS of work .
    Ans there are lots of “dated” motor homes for sale.🇨🇦😎

    Hello. We totally fascinated to watch your guys ups & downs ! We are planning buying one of those to travel USA. I can see there will be a lot of sweat, tears and whole lot of all kinds of moments. Enjoy the journey :)) I think you guys build yourself one really nice Tiny Home Bus ❤
