It's amazing how much the right is person coming into your life can change your perspective and attitude..I couldn't be happier for you Eric.. Diana has made such a difference in your videos.
You should not be using silicone behind that water input panel, instead it should have Bytl tape under the screws and sealant around the outside to redirect water. The silicone does not last.
Merry Christmas, Eric, Diana, Wayne, and all the kitties. Thank you for bringing us this Christmas edition of the Nomadic Fanatic. The family and I are hoping that you all enjoy your Christmas break from the Skoolie build. We're looking forward to seeing you continue the construction on the NautiBus. Do you have a current mailing address where we can send you and the kitties some goodies?
Butyl tape is a MUCH better option in place of silicone on the backside of the items you're attaching to the outside of the bus. Caulk is OK around the perimeter, but use the butyl tape on backside.
This is the last of the videos I haven't seen. It is time to move to Diana and see how far behind I am there. Thanks for the wonderful stuff. It was a great way to spend Christmas alone. Take care of yourself and the fur babies.
Here's the thing about things like school busses they might as well be expensive custom vehicles with expensive custom parts that these companies can profit heavily off of with steep mark ups.
I’ve been using it for many years in my different exhaust system setups. Look up “Aluminized Steel”.. It’s steel that is coated with aluminum to prevent corrosion.
If you plan on doing more modification to the sheet metal, get a nibbler. They make them for about 30 bucks to put on a drill and they just glide through sheet metal with no effort, and even cut fine if you're trying to reach the second panel from the same side.
Merry Christmas to you and Diana. And of course those kitties. Bus has been interesting for someone who has no idea of building. Enjoy and have a fun fun time off.
just a thought, if you put silicon caulking on outside edges, paint will have a tough time sticking. I know you are doing things your way, but perhaps wait until after painting to apply clear caulking.

As a retired firefighter, that has responded to a bus accident. There are never too many "emergency exits, when dealing with scared children.
I agree with you 100%. I'm a retired school bus driver. Thank goodness I never had to use any of the emergency exits.
Merry Christmas. Enjoy your first night in the Bus and have a fun break.
Thanks for posting on Christmas day, some folks have a hard time on this day.
I honestly really admire Eric's ability to just go for it.
Had so much fun watching your video honey! great job... you are amazing. I love you
Merry Christmas to you , Diana and your five Kittens 🎄🎅🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈
PUT BUTYL TAPE UNDER THE WATER FILL!! YOUR GONNA GAVE A LEAK DOWN THE ROAD... GUARANTEE!!!
Merry Christmas!
Good advice plan ahead 💯
yep I was thinking the same thing
You should not be using silicone behind that water input panel, instead it should have Bytl tape under the screws and sealant around the outside to redirect water. The silicone does not last.
Coming to post same thing

Regarding breaks: I’m on a two weeks holiday at the moment. I want to apologize to any grown up that can be offended by this fact.
This is the last of the videos I haven't seen. It is time to move to Diana and see how far behind I am there. Thanks for the wonderful stuff. It was a great way to spend Christmas alone. Take care of yourself and the fur babies.

Don’t eliminate your roof vents! Why not put vent fans in them??
