    I’ve seen gazillion videos on mobile living, including skoolies, and everyone always says it’s the best they’ve ever seen…but this one REALLY is the best I’ve ever seen. Brilliant design and first class execution and build by Paved to Pines! All that said, the accompanying music to this video doesn’t work at all for me, I’m having to watch it in increments so as not to climb the wall. But viewing this Rolls Royce of skoolies is well worth the effort of getting past the music. All involved did a stellar job, enjoy Walter!

    After watching the lock picking lawyer videos, that padlock in the back scares me for 2 reasons: 1) it looks like it would be easily picked/broken with the right tools and 2) if something goes wrong in the bus it cannot be opened in case of an emergency. Other than that it is a beautiful conversion!!

      Padlocks are basically ornamental for anyone who can use a basic lock picking kit. I took a lock picking class and was able to open all the locks even the most advanced ones in under two minutes each. And I have fine motor skills challenges bc of dyspraxia.

      Thanks Shannon!! I might have to agree with the washer/dryer comment! For me, I feel the decision would be occupancy. If the owner is flying solo (or a couple), then combo unit is awesome and saves space. For families, I think a stackable is a great choice!

    @DRK67 Před 2 lety +5

    Have to say this by far is the best layout design I’ve seen in my months of research. Open and airy, lots of natural light and just looks incredibly comfortable. I’m currently saving and planning for a flat nose conversion hopefully within the next 12-18 months. Would love to have y’all do it but I’m on South Florida and y’all are in Canada. Big draw back for me. But I have to say I love the attention to detail and it looks like all components have very good service access. That’s a huge build factor for me! Also have to say this is one of the best descriptive walk through videos I’ve seen yet. Awesome job!!! Can’t wait to begin my build. Thanks for posting this great video!!!

    So, where does the co-pilot sit? On, the slippery leather couch? So sad for the pilot to have to navigate this beast alone. IMO, it’s always nice to have an extra pair of eyes up front. With the current setup, the drivers eyes will unconsciously get diverted from the road when communicating with spouse in the back. And during hard braking, there is nothing to prevent occupants and loose objects in back from flying forward into the wide open cab😱

    • @annwithaplan9766
      @annwithaplan9766 Před 2 lety +9

      Russ Schoonmaker - I agree. I'm glad the young couple likes it. I like the wood they used in the build, but it's basically like many others I've seen. Not a fan of the "slippery leather couch" cushions. The round back cushion would not work with me laying on it as a bed. I'd fall through the crack real quick. The hallway pull-up hatch could've been hinged on the wall side for easier access, instead of having to lean over it from the bathroom.

    Beautiful bus. A couple of things I would have done differently, but still nice job.

    Awesome build, looks to be very professional. My only worry, the visibility looking to the right from the drivers position... extremely limited! Other than that, it's one of the best I've seen.

    I have to say... That thing is impressive!!! The windows and the roof raise just give so much space. The L couch and L kitchen works nicely. My only concern, the water system, the valves, and the filter. While under the bed makes great sense, have you thought about the access when there's a mattress wedged on top of the panel. I was just thinking that putting those controls and filter closer to the back door...
