Hi! So stumbled on to your videos because I'm installing my own water system on our bus now. My question was, how did you like the Excel tankless heater? Great work you guys have done and I appreciate you guys marking down your progress!
Gus the FUN BUS..🙆
Remember your words are literally your wand ! 💥
Like attracts like... Struggle attracts more struggle..
ABRACADABRA BABY..
That's how it goes..🙏💚☀️
I love this!!! So true, gotta change our name now!! haha
BLACK WIDOW!!!!! BLACK WIDOW IN THE BUS!!!!!
Hhahah you saw it too?!? trying to get some camera time hah
Wow Awesome. Meredith, Paco what 😳 in the world 🌎 did I miss it looks fantastic. I'm proud of you two. I am really excited to see what happens in the bathroom 🚻 🤗.
Didnt miss much, just a lot of work!!! Thank you so much for the encouragement!
friggen coming along YES!
Doing our best!! Thank you!
OMG i LOVE the song in this video so much!! And I loved the editing, how the song kept coming on! The shower looks awesome ~ it made that whole portion of the bus come into shape! It makes me remember how EXCITING that was for us, which makes me so excited for you guys! Great video! 😍👍❤
I know right! It's so catchy ☺️ thank you so much. Little by little its starting to take shape. When you're up and close to it you don't really notice a change but once you look at the videos you noticed how much you have gotten done. Thanks again guys!
Very impressed with the progress. 👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you so much!
You guys are cruising now! It's all coming together really well. Carpentry skill set is growing nicely and making it easier to put it together. Looking forward to seeing how the rest gets finished out and becomes your home. Keep up the good work, despite the heat and humidity.
Thank you, we have been getting a lot of practice in! We can't wait either, thank you so much for always being so supportive!
@@GustheStruggleBus my pleasure! And I forgot to mention the strong work on sliding in the embarrassment quotient. Paco is such a good sport. Though after marrying you, you'd think he'd give it up since it's never going to stop, or change.
LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about this video! You have done such a great job framing out the bathroom! Looks like you will have lots of space! Glad you didn't do a wet bath. Haha we didn't want to deal with that either. ;)
Props on the sick footage & edits! WOWZA! Gosh, you were both nailing the shots of each other, close ups, swoothes, zooms, rack focus, and in camera tricks that make things interesting! PLUS the song.... Cutest song EVER!
Thank you so much! This was such a fun step to do, we are trying to keep it interesting haha! Gotta get creative when you have to film the same thing over and over again! That thing on the wall is actually a magnetic bowl, to hold screws or something while you are working! We had a protective plate there so we stuck it there to hold up the wall when we were measuring and attaching it lol! That song is pretty catchy huh, so glad she let us use it. Thank you so much for all the support!
Somewhere in the bath put a small exhaust fan vent it to the outside as to control moisture... No mold build up. Both of you are doing such a great build. Proud of you both...
Great idea! We will figure out how to do that! Thank you so much
take in account that the tankless waterheater will put out some serious heat out the top , could be nice to use as extra heating in the shower but can allso mean that some tiles inside the shower could become too hot to touch
That is a good point! We will think about that thank you!
Very impressive! Good job!
Thank you so much!
Nice job. Thanks for sharing!🙂
Thank you Stacy!
Wow ! What a FUN edit. And a lot of hard fieldwork. Great job ya'll ! Gus is taking shape.
So glad you liked it! It took some research but we figured it out! Thank you
Start the Bus of the engine at least twice a week for the engine to stay perfectly in shape.
We try to start it often but we should do it more! Thank you for the reminder!
This is a GIANT LEAP! Can’t wait to see what’s gonna be in that BIG hole😜TFS
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for showing all the details! It’s so helpful!
So glad we could be helpful! Thank you
Just discovered you guys, and so far, some of the best bus build videos I've seen (and I've seen hundreds!) Started demo on my shuttle bus this week, binge watching you now...lol. Did you ever imagine people would binge watch you? 🤪... anyway, thanks for the awesome instruction. -Laurie
Wow thank you so much! And Congrats on the build! Hope we can help! Never in a million years did we think that haha
Looking good you two. Having the last wall up feels so great. Looking forward to seeing what you do in the bathroom. Stay safe and sending love your way.
Thank you so much, it feels good to get such a big step out of the way!
Been awhile checking in to see how things are going....notice Gus is now a struggle bus LOL main thing is you have not given up
Thank you so much! Still Gus just some days a real struggle haha!
Nicely done guys. That shower wall isn't going anywhere. That's for sure.
Lol it sure isn't! Thank you! 🤓
Great carpentry!
Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for sharing. We are in the process of finishing our shower.
That is awesome! Let us know how it goes!
Great Video..very helpful btw..🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Its really coming together. Awesome job you guys!!😁❤
Thank you so much!
WOW! Its looking more like home every day! 😁
I know right!! Little by little we are making a dent 😁
G'day well done I've got a heater under my bar like that it's made in Germany they are terrific regards John
That is great to hear! We hope this one works well too!
Looking really good! I am super concerned about that water heater though. For washing your hands, it would be fine but for a shower, the amount of heat that will build up inside the cabinet borders on dangerous. Just an observation. Just because it is ventless doesn't mean is doesn't need ventilation.
Thank you! We did a lot of research on that heater and plan on keeping a close eye one it, some test runs as well. We know a few people who are using it and how they have it mounted as well. We will find a way to vent out that area down there it will have a lot of clearance and we plan on coating the inside of that cabinet with something that can get hot. If not we will get to plan G! Thank you so much for your concern and we will make sure to be careful!
Looking great. You guys are moving along nicely
Thank you so much! ☺️😁
Just in time since I'm working on my shower too, love your videos and energy! but did no one see the spider at 21:36 !?! 😅
Hhahah we noticed that spider while we were editing haha so funny you saw it too! And awesome we are working on things at the same time!
Kerf cut your 2x4’s to make the curves for your ceiling supports. Look it up and you’ll find plenty of info and demonstrations on effective kerf cutting instead of steam bending or making it extra hard by cutting out curves off of larger material. I enjoy the footage of the build as bus builds should show it, but lay off the ridiculous spinning and swooping motions of pocket hole drilling pls
We will look into that, Thank you! So sorry you didn't like the edit, we try to experiment with different shots and filming because we have to film the same things so much. Maybe you will like the next one.
Man, sure wish y'all would've raised the roof of the bus.
We would have loved to do a roof raise but sadly it was not in the books for us! But we will love our home either way!
What is the width of all your walls (closet side and bathroom side) and hallway?
Hey Thomas! The larget side of the hallway, bathroom included) the walls are 31 inches. The other side starts and 28 and tapers down to 23. Making the smallest part of the hallway around 26 and getting bigger from there!
@@GustheStruggleBus Thank you. You two do amazing work!!!
@@VandalayVanConversion Thank you!
