Thank you so much for taking a tour of my skoolie, and giving me the opportunity to show my build!
Any time! Looking forward to having you on the channel again. I cannot wait to tour your next projects.
You did well. A proper house on wheels. Most pleased with the comfortable and dare I say, roomy, space for a child/-ren and guests to sleep in. Unlike most skoolies, where kids are stowed away like some surplus luggage 😶
Love it. All the best for your future plans. Hopefully we get to share in that part of your adventure...!? Go well.
@@tessasinclair6315 Thank you so much for that! Yes it is very spacious inside! HAHA yeah I have seem some of those "bunks/storage areas" for kids to sleep. 😂 I have been documenting the build on my channel. I will 100% show anything that I have planned for the future!
It is just perfect. You really think thoroughly the must have and need whenever going for travel.
@@msred5400 Thanks! Yeah there was a lot of planning going into the build!
This is literally the best designed schoolie I've seen. Very well thought out with almost crazy amount of storage and surprising amount of sleeping capacity. Well done.
Wow, thank you!
Thank you!! I did put in a decent amount of time planning the layout.
That blue is just gorgeous!! Love it with the black trim, makes it really stand out!
@@h.a.barker412 Thanks! I had painted it a lighter color and was not happy with it. Glad I went with a little darker blue.
Dan, this is an excellently designed school bus/Tiny Home. It is rugged enough fot the road, yet if you found a property that you desired between choice locations (and were pulling a small car), it is quite imposing enough to list as your Residence for a given period of time. 😊🎉
What a nice build.
Thank you!!
Appreciate the feedback. Dan is extremely talented.
What an awesome bus.
Thanks! Appreciate that!
Appreciate the feedback. I’m on the same page with you.
This school bus is insane! Finally something different and creative i feel everyone keeps doing the same thing. Not this one! Wow i loveeee it
Some great ideas on this one hopefully it inspires others to try some more new things
Thank you so much! Really appreciate that!
He did a great job on the whole bus. It’s one of the better looking buses on the outside that I’ve seen. The electrical system appears to be larger than normal. Thanks to both of you for showing it.
Indeed!
Thanks! Glad you like it!
I dig the overhead bunk. A lot of work went into that bus, especially with the door relocation. Nice job!
Thanks!! Yes a lot of planning ahead.
Glad you enjoyed it
This is the best built Skokie I’ve ever saw . I’m very impressed. The quality and workmanship is really impressive.
Appreciate the feedback Michael
Thank you so much!!
What a fantastic, well-planned, design specific and an overall impressive living space. We’ll done. Good find Patrick.
Many thanks!
Thanks! Im glad Patrick was able to take a tour.
Awesome job. He added stuff I have never seen done on a bus build.
Me neither
Thanks! Yeah I tried to make it as unique as I could.
This is the best schoolie I've seen hands down especially with the ac unit ive never seen that done
Appreciate the feedback. Happy you enjoyed it.
Thank you so much!!
This is Too Cool For School Dan 😎 I need to Convert my own Mercedes Vito Van But this is luxury on wheels 👌👍
Happy you found a tour
Thank you! Good luck on your build!
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures Really Pleased I Came across your Channel, I'm Based in the UK. American School Buses Remind me of Home Alone and American Movies. If I lived in America, I'd Definitely Convert an old School Bus.
@@DanZalinsky Done a great Job Dan, there is lots of genuine hard work and time that's gone into this build. The Electrical work and fitting of equipment, loads and loads of cutting, scribing, drilling,feeding ducting etc so much time and effort has gone into this. Its very easy to lose hope and give up, or skip steps to get it finished. The end Result is 👌
@@BagofRust I really appreciate that. YES!! There was a lot that went into this, but following a goal/dream helped me complete the build!
What impressed me the most was that he matched the bus to his shirt.
Planned
Haha gotta stay coordinated.
What a well-thought-out build! It's clean, has everything you need - including a ton of storage, and the fresh water capacity is mind-blowing!
I appreciate the feedback Kimberly
Thank you! Yeah a lot of planning went into the build. Glad you enjoyed it!
@DanZalinsky what does it rent for?
@@reesme417 Im not renting it out currently. But when I do In the future I will post about it on my channel.
That is such a beautifully executed build. You have raised the bar, young man!
Appreciate the feedback
Thanks!!
Wow! Best I’ve seen! Love it all! Especially ac and flushing toilet!
Wow, thanks!
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO...
great set up, functional design and the concealed duct system is GENIUS...
WELL DONE!!!
WAY TO GO PATRICK!!!
CARRY ON!!!
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
What a prefect home❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much for the feedback Torrie
Thank you!
Cool build especially with that AC. They say it’s your birthday happy birthday to you! Patrick
Thank you very much buddy
Thanks!
Very clever remodel. A genius idea to move those pesky stairs to the middle and the door and make that a proper passenger seat. So nice and roomy.
Great spare bed loft area! Love the spacious kitchen with so much cabinet space. Large lounge, swivel cab chairs, all great features. The ducting and roof raise are a luxury upgrade. I'd love to know some of your components: water heater, batteries.
The bathrooms are so nice. Separate toilet is such a luxury. I did not know you could use floor vinyl for bathroom walls, that is smart. Looks like tile. Vinyl has so much color choices.
Extremely functional and roomy interior space. I can see this as an Airbnb rental, vacation home, guest lodging, and fun family camping vehicle. A lot of hard work went into this build. You should be proud. Bravo Dan!
Suggestions:
Kitchen - If you like to cook, an overhead vent that sucks in the fumes and vents out is very useful.
Roof Paint - Look into Durabak. Very hard polyurethane bedliner paint that goes onto any surface. Comes in solid colors as a base coat, then you can customize with metallic or pearl accents using Clear Durabak on top of the painted one. For the roof, a white pearl or metallic will reflect more heat than plain white. Elastomeric paints are short lived and not good. It is an acrylic, same as house paint with some additives. Powder pigments high quality is available from KP pigments at $10 for 25 gms. You need 50 gms per gallon of clear Durabak. You can roller brush (Mohair rollers only) or spray it. It comes in Smooth (greater satin shine) or Textured (matte with crumb rubber in it for non slip surface). I would recommend the smooth one. Xylene is the solvent. Follow instructions on their site.
Thank you!! I appreciate the info on the roof paint. Ill have to look at getting that soon to help with the longevity of the roof. And I don't cook that much but there isn't anything behind the backsplash, so I could add a vent there in the future. A lot of ups and downs when building the bus too. I appreciate all the positive comments. Thank you for that! I do plan on listing it on Airbnb next year once I find a good place to park it.
Probably one of the best buses I’ve seen !!
Glad to hear that
Young man, awesome job. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Thank you too!
This is one of the nicest Bus Conversions ive seen!!

Thank you! Appreciate that!
This guy talks and explained everything soo awesome...he should do tours explaining for a living
Thanks!! Really appreciate that!
Sweet build and the space, layout and design are well executed. I like the vans but I feel the schoolies are the way to go. Great job.
Thank you so much!! Appreciate that!
Incredible build. Makes me think of a class A RV.
It really does. Looks like a class a gas motorhome with that center door.
Thanks! Yeah tried to add some luxury where I could.
Its a fantastic idea to allow people to try bus life!
Thanks! Yeah a little experience of Buslife!
This is a beautiful build. You have designed a lovely home. Thanks for sharing.

@@DanZalinsky I love your build very clever
@DanZalinsky I like how you moved the door more to the middle it looks more house like, and now you can have a passenger seat, great job 👍
@@law81669 Yeah Im glad I moved it. Makes the whole interior a lot easier to use. And having someone up front is really nice!
Your skoolie is great, probably the best I have seen. Decoration and layout is really good. Thanks for sharing.
Well done! I wish I was capable of relocating the door and raising the roof on a school bus. I'd start one tomorrow!!
I’m happy you enjoyed the tour. Hopefully it gave you some good ideas.
Looks like a Plano RV built. It's okay , I Would rather like the homey look, but you also did a great job.🎉
One of the best builds by far

If I were putting a bus together, this is how I would do it.
I’m happy this video was helpful
This is the most best bus tour I’ve ever seen nobody has a more perfect half bathroom and shower like that I would most definitely live there. 😂😂😂 🚌🚐🚍🚎
Thanks Wandal
Thank you so much!!
Gorgeous apoxy table!
Thank you! 😊
Thanks! It was my first time using epoxy. A lot easier than I thought.
That’s really nice!!! I could live in that with no problem. I’m 200% looking for a Tiny Home. Unfortunately people want too much money for them. I want one because I’m retired and SSA doesn’t really give you much 💰to live on 🙋🏽♀️💕
Great home!
It really is
Thank you!
Beautiful job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you!
Really nice !
Thanks!
Many thanks!
WOW! That’s a pretty bus! Love the epoxy table. He did a great job.
Thanks! Yeah the epoxy was a lot easier than I thought it would be. And very inexpensive.
Thank you very much!
Really love this!!
Thanks!!
Beautiful build!
