Thank you so much. I'm a 59 yr old women that's never had her own home, and I plan on getting a short school bus and making it my own, so I'll be watching allot of your videos. Thank you
Just found your channel. Thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to position cameras and spend the time on editing. I do editing as well and I KNOW its a huge amount of post effort you are putting into these. Wife and I are going the Skoolie route in the the next few months and it's content like yours that will make our process smoother. CARRY ON and again - THANKS!
We just started paying on a bus. We'll pick it up in Nov some time. We want to thank you for making this video. Your hard work and information will help us on our mission to get on the road.
I'm very glad you talked about using pneumatic tools as well. On my way to buy those items now before I pick my bus up next week. Good info!! Have the grinders and most everything else needed. Thanks!!
Yes! Definitely saved us a bunch of time. I'm contemplating getting a pneumatic sander now. We'll see. The harbor freight wrench did a great job for us.
I actually thought about it but the bolts underneath we're really rusted so I wasn't going to save anytime doing it that way and could not reuse these bolts either.
We did the penny method but now dont even worry about it on client buses. Water wont get up there and then its a good place for water to drain for a pipe burst or something.
Question for you! I’ve been taking the seats out of my mini bus, but it seems that one row of bolts is on top of the gas tank Period is there some trick that you found to get bolts like that out?
I have not. My first thoughts is that you could grind off the heads of the bolts and then the rest of the bolt should just fall out the bottom of the bus! Congrats on the new build btw!
@@BackroadPurpose I ended up cutting the heads off thinking the same thing, but found that there was access beneath the floor (when I took it up) to right above the gas tank. Ended up having to saw by hand for a few of them which was a pain, but got the others out with a multi tool. Not a fun process lol. But it’s done! And thank you!

The angle grinder is really the MVP of a Skoolie demo, we have used it more than any other tool so far =)
That seems to be the case so far!! We used it about 12 times yesterday when removing the floors.

Glad to help! I will be posting more videos soon for sure!
Thank you for the videos. Getting a bus beginning of the year and these will definitely come in handy.
You are very welcome. Hopefully I can answer any of your questions.

Love to see the transformation!!
More to come for sure!
Love your channel and your story. How about spot welding the top instead of cutting? Would that have worked?
I actually thought about it but the bolts underneath we're really rusted so I wasn't going to save anytime doing it that way and could not reuse these bolts either.
How did you fill the holes in the floor?
We did the penny method but now dont even worry about it on client buses. Water wont get up there and then its a good place for water to drain for a pipe burst or something.

how to you dispose of the seats?
I actually sold them on Facebook. Like $15 each actually. You could always take them to a scrap yard and get a few bucks for them.
haha Anyone who's ever done this knows exactly what you went through.
Lol facts!
