Skoolie build incredible tiny house tiny home full tour wood stove solar panels
This was one of my best skoolie I have seen....no sacrifice on amenities
Wow thank you! That's huge.

We totally agree, @Elvia Nichols :) Such a great design!
Elivia Nichols And very good presentation.
I was thinking "oh, blah, another skoolie tour". but then I say all the cool features like the toilet by the door, the storage under the shower seat and I was blown away!!! This one is really the best I have seen so far!
This might be our favorite comment ever! Lol. Really appreciate that 😁
This is exactly what I was going to say. It’s perfection!
One of the nicest conversions I've seen, I'd live in there in a heartbeat...beautiful home you have ❤️
Huge compliment! Thank you!
AMAZING!!! I have been watching conversion videos for a year now and I LOVE what you two have done. In my book you are tied as one of my top two. Keep up the good work and you now have 1 more subscriber!
Rene sanders thanks for the love!
I love your bus, by far the nicest I've seen on these videos. You have every amenity of a house. Bravo well done.
@@kathyg.8960 what kind of job can be done at home
Brilliant layout - has everything! I would buy these plans in a heartbeat.
Well we might have to make them available then! Haha thanks!
@@BasicallyNomads Definitely... If you create a full source build sheet / plans specs / I'd be a buyer also.
@@BasicallyNomads would love to see that as well. I have been looking all over for a few yrs and this is the best I have seen of a bus conversion.
I would purchase them too!
I would to! Love this. Please make them available :)
This is one of my favorite layouts ever!
Thanks! ❤😁
This is simply beautiful and he was so thoughtful to have a nice place for his wife to shower comfortably and take care of her needs.
Thank you so much. And absolutely! Have to put her first :)
I realize I'm not saying anything you probably haven't heard multiple times. But guys this is an AWESOME floor plan!!! You all should be VERY PROUD it looks beautiful and the new doors you're building are looking great as well! God Bless and Keep up the Good Work!!
Thanks for the video!!!
I watch a LOT of tiny home videos and yours is one of my favourite! What a beautiful home!
😯 Thank you! That really means a lot!
Very well designed! I am loving that bathroom. Such a good idea to include a bench with pull out drawer in the shower.
Thank you very much! We had to use every last square foot lol.
We thought so too! Love how they did a mini roof raise on the shower area! We're thinking about doing that now for our shower! Also love how they have exterior access to the composting toilet. Brilliant!!!
Nice layout and very kind and thoughtful to dedicate valuable space for guests...then again when and if you have kids the bunks would be perfect!
Absolutely!!
Saving this in case I ever build one of these, because I really want to. My jaw dropped at the shower seat/drawer. My wife has chronic pain and I like to sit in the shower when I have a migraine, it's perfect. What an amazing house and thank you for the inspiration.
Thank you so much! Make it happen.
What a beautiful space, you are both very talented! God bless you both.
This is like a perfect schoolie design. ..awesome
Thanks, Johnny! We're really happy with how it turned out.
Hola princesa hermosa .
As a contractor I can say that you guys did a great job in building this out. Excellent craftsmanship for a DYI’er. I also watched your video on the cost, and I agree with others - you got the maximum BANG for your buck! One of the best builds out there.
THE best conversion I've seen. This is actually livable. Best wishes.
Thanks, Gregory! We love it! Appreciate the kind words.
I don't know how many tiny home videos I've seen, but this one is the best. Very well thought out! You guys are super smart!
Beautiful. I’m always amazed seeing these buses/tiny houses that are 10x more beautiful than any house I’ve lived in!
That's a huge compliment. Thank you so much.
This is by far my favorite I've seen so far
This is my new favorite build. The only thing I would add is a Berkey. The layout is fantastic. The style is beautiful. Great work!
Thank you for that! We current have 3 in-line water filters that we use but we'll look in to the Berkeys! Thanks for the advice 😁
this skoolie is genuinely so impressive. somehow it feels bigger than all the other builds i see, and i imagine the reason i’d probably because you have a queen bed instead of a king. still, the fact you have three extra beds for guests is amazing. most skoolies have the couch-bed, but you guys manage to have bunks as well. when i saw some shorts with the bunks i assumed you had kids, and was shocked it was for guests. you also have so much room for all your clothes which also shocked me- i have so many clothes, having space for them in a skoolie isn’t a common feature.
Hi! This is my first time watching one of your videos and to be honest I’m not a huge skoolie fan. I’ve probably watched over 500 small home, van, rv, boat,car , etc tours and this is the FIRST TIME I’ve seen a rig that I’d like to live in. Your build is amazing , clever, efficient and beautifully executed! I’m going to save this video for inspiration!!🤩👍
Thanks, Melissa! That's such a massive compliment. It's truly appreciated. Have a Merry Christmas!
I really love this build. I love how this couple organized and used all of their storage space along with extra beds for their guest. This skoolie looks so comfortable and cozy. I wish them the best and safe travels.
Honestly I’d rather live in this instead of my house
Come on over 😂😂
I will rather not come over because a. You will tell us your adress and people will stalk you and b. It will make you a little bit more work.
Same it looks so cozy!
Oh my goodness your home bus is beautiful!
This is absolutely stunning. What a beautiful conversion. #Goals...thank you for sharing your beautiful home. 😊
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you liked it 😁
I absolutely love your build! So efficient and beautiful at the same time!
OMG! Beautiful! Definitely homie. Well organized. I love the thoughts of family visiting. Well planned. People are crazy not to love this. The best I've seen on youtube. Something i would live in. Awesome job. Beautiful couple
Beautiful job. Well done you two. I think this is the prettiest schoolie I've seen so far.
I’m leaning more towards schoolies over tiny house on wheels. And then I see yours! 😍. Amazing work, you guys should be proud.
Such a rad accomplishment guys! Good luck on your ventures guys! So amazing how much you guys have done! Where ever life takes you enjoy the moments and cherish every moment!!! Good luck guys! And congrats on all your hard work paying off! Gonna miss ya Dev. Keep in touch man!
This is one of the most beautiful and thoughtfully planned builds I've ever seen! ❤❤!
Thank you so much 😁
@@BasicallyNomads you're very welcome! I am definitely inspired
This might probably be an amazing skoolie conversion ever!And I just love the idea of having wooden stove..It gives more homey feeling and satisfaction.
Wow mind-blowin design! This skoolie is a work of art on wheels! So much better than an apartment.
Thanks JC! An apartment you can take with you lol.
@@BasicallyNomads A great way of living mate! congrats to you! :)
this is the best of any tiny/mobile home i've seen. Great shower, extra bunks, nice kitchen
One of the coolest Skoolies ever! So AWESOME!!
Thanks!!
Very nice build. You thought of everything, including bunk beds for guests. The bathroom is perfect. My only "negative" comment is make sure it doesn't get too hot above the stove for your vitamins. 👍🏻
Thank you! and thanks for the tip!
Just perfect!! Really feels like a home. I 'm impressed.
Love seeing young people using thier resources wisely. It removes unnecessary stress
The interior design is excellent. I am impressed.
Please tell me, how long is your bus?
And what make and model is it?
Hey thank you! It's a 2002 Bluebird tc3000 I think. It's a 39ft pusher with a 5.9L cummins diesel.
Beautiful home!
@@BasicallyNomads just curious what was the total average cost of the conversion??
@@megankristal1025 I've got a full video breakdown but close to 26k
I've seen tons of skoolie tours recently and have been thinking of how I would do mine if I ever built it and this has given me by far the most inspiration and ideas!
Absolutely Beautiful! One of the best I’ve seen !
Def one of the best builds and designs I’ve seen. Great use of space. Love everything.
WoooW, what a beautiful skoolie! Love everything that you have done! Love the layout, the space for your kitty, the bunk beds, the two desks, the big kitchen, the pantry, everything. Well done guys 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
Now can you make one for me too?!
Thank you! and absolutely.. let's get started LOL
This is definitely the best skoolie build I have ever seen! You really maximized space so well and I love how you didn’t sacrifice the things that you want, You just found a way to include them!
Thank you so much!
wow! this is a work of art. i am subscribing.
Thank you so much!
You guys really did an amazing job on your skoolie. What a beautiful, neat, functional home you have created! Well done.
Glad you liked it!
absolutely the best skoolie I've seen.... good job!
I have watched 100’s of schoolie tours. You folks hit it out of the park. You should be very proud.
Oh really lovely bus conversion, you’ve thought of everything ......love your blinds too , when are they from please .
Hey thanks, Jen! They're from menards but most hardware stores will carry something similar that you can get cut to size.
I am so impressed by this skoolie! I'm actually hoping to build my own so if you do decide to make plans I will DEFINITELY buy them and i wanted to say you guys have motivated me so thank you so much for sharing. And I have so many questions about the whole building process!
I love this! Can you guys do a cost/time breakdown of how everything was for you guys??
That's an awesome idea! We'll try to get it done.
@@BasicallyNomads On that note, I'm very curious to know the PC cost/constraints of gaming and general usage. There's not a lot of information out there on it. Thank you for showing us your home!
Kathleen here...of all the tiny builds I have viewed yours is my favorite. I love the floorplan and the buildtins . Your floor plan left nothing out and genius to put the toilet by the door, love the bunks and the clothing under the mattress, ac and heat in the master, The copper around your woodstove is charming as are your decorative details, tile, window treatments...perfection!
This is probable the best ive ever seen love it!!!
Whoa that's huge! Thanks!
Wow. Washer/dryer combo AND IN YOUR SKOOLIE? Amazing lol and I love how you have sleeping quarters for guests. So many! This is really a complete home in a bus
I love everything about this bus! Y’all are going to live such fun lives! ( insta looked as tho you hadn’t updated recently) enjoy🤛
Hey, thank you! Yeah we've been a little behind on insta! We're actually in Indonesia right now!! We'll make sure to get back too it soon lol.
beautifully designed! i've been watching skoolie and van conversions for over 2 years now and this is one of my favorites! loved how you used your space and didn't have to sacrifice on your amenities! the bathroom is always a dealbreaker for me and you seriously delivered. i'm converting a bus hopefully soon and i'd buy these plans without hesitation. amazing job
I love the feel of the interior, looks just like a home. The batteries directly under the bed is a bit worrying though.
Thank you! The batteries have all the appropriate fuses and are only 6 volt batteries. I cant possibly believe that, if it somehow ignored all fuses, that someone would burn up before realizing there was a fire. I would be much more worried if the batteries were in front of an emergency exit (which there is one right across from the bunks) if the positive and negative were shorted (which is the only way a 6 volt battery would spark) the fuse will instantly blow. I've blown it many times on accident haha.
Well thought out! Best skoolie I have seen, yet. Keep going!
Very charming and homelike 😊
Wow, what an amazing build! I absolutely love everything about it. You have the stove with oven, washer/dryer, AMAZING shower, mini split, and plenty of sleeping space. Well done! I think this is the nicest one I have seen. God bless and safe travels!
Too many awesome details to mention......but I really love the cat station, wood stove, and ummm all of it really.
Haha thanks Allison! Yeah, the cat station is one of the things I'm more proud of. It just used that space perfectly.
YOOOOO This is the best skoolie I have ever seen!! Nice jobb!!!! I kinda love to live in that tho..
Beautiful, well thought out floor plan. Best design i've seen in a skoolie, totally wishing it was mine
Wow, thank you.
You guys did an amazing job at designing your home. I am truly impressed with everything. Your bathroom design is just brilliant. Thank you so much for sharing your home and the details of your design of your home. Happy trails to you.
And thank you for watching it! Glad you liked it.
Fantastic build. Impressive.
Like everything I see besides the compost toilet I hate those things. But the colors are nice I'm definitely loving a shower. Loving the bedroom I mean you got so much space and I even like the cat so cute.
Better lay out than Tiny House. Very comfortable.
Best schoolie I have seen. So well thought out, beautifully crafted. I know you will enjoy your nomad life in that.
Who need an apartment when you have this? Like this is bigger than my house😂
😂 Thanks, Marina! We've definitely made it feel like a home!
WOW !! At last a perfect layout and gorgeous finish. Well done you !!!
Awesome build!!
An empty washer makes a pretty good hamper, too. :-) Love your build. Great ideas and gorgeous!
Gorgeous home. Perfect, really.
Thank you so much.
I was trying to find someone who had a seating area, full kitchen, bathroom, bunk beds, closets, and master bed area. This was everything!
Luv the backsplash in the kitchen! Where’s it from and what’s it called, and what color did you use for grout?
Thanks, Ana! We found the backsplash at Lowe's. We paired it with white grout so that it wouldn't stick out too much, but would still add some nice detail.
WOW, hi from a very under water Australia, I thought I loved the last bus but this one blows the rest away, I could happily spend the rest of my days living in this beautiful home, you have made a work of art and a lovely home, JEALOUS. LOOOOOOVE IT.
You should start business building more bus and sell I would buy one.
We'd totally be in to it. I really enjoy it. It's pretty much just a huge puzzle that I have to put together piece by piece lol.
One of the best, if not the best skooly conversion I have seen!
😯 thanks!
I love this!
Bus on the outside 👍 MANSION on the inside💥💥💥💥. HAPPY living and travels to you guys 💞.

Surface!! Nice microsoft eco-system
@@hazieerulharun803 Thanks! As you can tell we're DIYers and apple doesnt work well with people that want to build their own systems 😅🤣
I don't care how much what I will like to say if you're comfortable that's all that matters
I’m an Apple 🍎 guy, except when it has to do with building gaming PC’s :) show us more of your gaming build. Steam is the the PC way to go but there’s now Xbox Game Pass for PC, try it out one day
what did you use to seal the wood counters, and where did you get the sink faucet?
Awesome build. Y’all really maximized your space nicely and decorated beautifully.
Thank you!
I’ve seen several comments on how many times she said “um”. She can’t help it so stop making fun of her plz and thanks
Thanks!
Wow nice rig you have. Just hate the "uhm" "uhm" 😅😅.
First TH-cam video 😁 be patient with us 😂😂😂
I had to stop 🛑 watching because of that 😬 we all have our bad days
I didn’t mind those at all! Easy thing to do when you’re trying to be thorough in videos! 😉
Wow I absolutely LOVE this conversion! Amazing job!
Take a shot everytime she says “umm”
Um, totally.
Well thought out, a fantastic place to live! You sacrificed nothing! Kitty has his space and hidden bowls, His space, her space, wood burning stove with wood just below, stove with oven, countertop space, full fridge, pantry, washer combo with dirty laundry drawer right above, bench in shower, toilet with door access! Love the layout, it is absolutely perfect! Would live in it in a heartbeat! Hope you get many years of happiness and travels with this! Awesome!
Thanks so much Sarah!
I love the organization of your home, it’s got to be one of the best, IMO.
Well thought out! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💕
Hi! I'm a korean watching ur video at 3am in korea lol ive been binge watching van/skoolie tours for hours and i must say yours is my absolute favorite! It is so simple yet beauuuuuutiful
Thank you! That means a lot :)
Beautiful build. Top notch. You guys did an incredible job!
The toilet tiles look really dainty and i like your storages with their closing doors they look sturdy. The bunk beds near the toilet are nice sized and your bed looks really comfortable too.
Absolutely love love this bus! Great storage planning and great aesthetics too! Great job!
Having a shower seat is awesome. The pull out drawer under the shower seat is genius too. I think this is the nicest skoolie I have seen too!
It's perfect really. U fit a lot and ALL necessities in a bus. People look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them this is how I want to live
Maybe we are a little crazy.. and that's ok 😂 Thank you!
Of the hundreds of theses videos I've watched this is by far the best build ever you two ROCK!!!! IF I ever did a build this would be so copied by me I LOVE IT!! SAFE travels and a Blessed Life to you both! Thanks so much!!
This is by far the best design I've seen. Beautiful and maximizes every inch. WITH STYLE
The bus is beautiful. You guys did a great job!
The best bathroom i've seen in a skoolie!
THANKS!
