Thanks for the ideas, NICE bus! The blank speaker hole in the front is common. In many states it is illegal to have speakers that close to the driver because it is a "distraction". Never mind the sixty screaming kids behind you - but no music!!!
As my binge watching Bussy getting her McBusface progresses I find myself more & more having tool envy. Man ! Cool Tools ! How are you going to carry all that awesomeness with you ?
Hey Guys! I stumbled onto y'all's channel today, and, after watching the first video I simply HAD to subscribe! Mike, I am just blowed away with your electrical, wood working, plumbing, and, all of your other skills! The two of you appear to me to be very 'real and down to earth' folks which is what attracted me to your channel! I have been binge watching for at least the last four hours and don't plan to stop anytime soon! I'm so glad I found y'all's channel! ( 8/21/2019. Wednesday. 1:23pmCST. ~Jim in Houston, Texas~ )
After some time, what is your review of those cameras? That price is hard to beat. Solid? Waterproof? How will they handle going down the road at 60mph? Thanks!
Hey guys, how’s it going? Hey love your videos and I had a question about your camera system. I have a system pretty similar to yours and I wanted to see how it worked out in your bus so far? And would you suggest doing anything different?
Great job you two its really starting to take shape love the lights and great idea with the camera's Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you as well. Thanks for the ride.
Friggin hilarious! I laughed so hard... We just renovated our house and used all LED. Dim-able, indoor/outdoor, and you can put those lights in your shower. They should last 20 years. Cheers, and Merry Christmas to you also. Rick and Shelley.
I'm curious why you mounted your cameras outside, you could have mounted them inside and not put any holes in the hull which are now potential leaks not to mention subject to weather and vandals. Nice work on this bus, I recently discovered this channel the video were you installed the extra storage was the first one for me now I'm bingeing.
Mike, mounting the cameras inside greatly reduces not only the resolution but makes them useless at night due to reflection of the IR lights. These cameras are designed to mount outside and are very easy to waterproof. The idea of having them outside is to catch the "vandals" on camera. I recommend you get some of these cameras and try what you suggested so you can see for yourself how the idea you suggested wouldn't work. Thanks for your comment!
I was thinking along the lines of my dash camera I have in my vehicle. Also dad instilled the old school idea of every hole you put in your roof will come back to haunt you.
I agree to a certain extent but a m pretty confident I waterproofed those bad boys. We are also using the camera while driving to assist lane changes and backing so I needed better angles than an interior install would give us.
Another great video from you two. I am impressed with the lighting and your mounting fix. I guess you still have the little CNC machine since it was in your video. Let me know where you got the security setup as we have been thinking about getting one for our home. Keep up the good work!
I lived in Cottonwood and Sedona... Never heard of st. David? LOL, I'm looking for a school bus. Going to be rolling thru America feeding homeless... I can't wait!
I purchased the same camera system and installed it , as easy as you said it would be. What are you using for internet so you can access the video from your phone?
We will be making a video shortly discussing how we stay connected to the internet. It's not very complicated and it's very robust and it has done a great job for us.
If you want warmer tints for those LED lights you're disappointed in, get LEDs with temperature ratings between 3500K and 5000K (K = Kelvin), and use a dimmer.
Learned my lesson years ago, Nutthin but proflex goes on my ride, standard silicone cauld is complete garbage, easy cleanup easy come off & leak! Like your heat pump to hell with proprietary high dollar RV junk use residential to save $'s and live long, wireless cams thru a central router & you can use any laptop or PC monitor for all your video, audio convenience. Man O man diggin the lil CNC router, & the cool wood cut outz, why in da hell paint em I would a left em clear coated purdy wood.
Omg I didn’t Realize that this was done in 2018. This is Jan. 1, 2020. Lol I’m Sorry Know your enjoying your Bus. I can’t wait till I See The End Result. Hope you guys Had a Great New Years 2020 lol
Now that you have been living in the bus for a while, how do you like the security camera set up? Do you use it while you drive as "driving/backup" cameras?
We like the security cameras. We actually use two different kinds. When we are driving we use the outside security cameras and we also use them while we are sitting because they record all the time. The problem with them is that they do not alert for motion reliably. We use Wyze cameras that we put in place when we are stopped to monitor the most logical direction of approach to the bus and those alert us very well as well as sound.
Kerry put the patches and note someplace and she can't remember!🤣 it's going to turn up. Probably when we move into the bus. We collect patches. Not just EMS. We get them everywhere we go.
@@BussyMcBusface hehe my inspiration was V from Ian Robinson's build who kept saying "another day another bus conversion" which always cracked me up. That coupled with the feeling of never accomplishing what I really wanted to each day just lead me to tell myself to do something on the bus which really meant just go do something, anything, who cares what you accomplish! So there's the whole story.
Simply put, the cameras are for when we are not there. The motion detection alerts my cell and I can actually speak with them with the PA speaker and microphone. This gives us peace of mind while we are away. As for the guns part, Google 11BB4 and you will have a little insight into my background.
Hey guys, how’s it going? Hey love your videos and I had a question about your camera system. I have a system pretty similar to yours and I wanted to see how it worked out in your bus so far? And would you suggest doing anything different?
The rearview camera can be handy while backing up, and see if you also have tailgaters.
Thanks for the ideas, NICE bus! The blank speaker hole in the front is common. In many states it is illegal to have speakers that close to the driver because it is a "distraction". Never mind the sixty screaming kids behind you - but no music!!!
Awesome Guys Merry Christmas. Love your Hello Kitty Hat
Very exciting to see it all come together. Love your NC setup - perfect for the adapter plates. Well done. Love - Dad and Mom
Dude,you're pretty cool
😁
love the new lights.
Loved the ROUSes reference! LOL
Lol those cute little piggies though!!
As my binge watching Bussy getting her McBusface progresses I find myself more & more having tool envy. Man ! Cool Tools ! How are you going to carry all that awesomeness with you ?
I just came home from a super screwed up night at work and you guys succeeded in cracking me up. Thank you!!
Lights are great looks excellent good job

Always fun to watch your videos. Is that the neutral or the cool white lights?
That first Javelina is famous, I'd recognize him anywhere. That was Gregory Peccary!
Bwaaaah ha ha ha, that's hilarious!!! 😂
Love the lighting and outdoor cameras....just think, the next mornings playback of watching bears trying to get in !
so cooooool
After some time, what is your review of those cameras? That price is hard to beat.

Great job. You've given me several good ideas. You guys are fun to watch and very informative. Love the way you interact too. Thanks.
Great Job you two, Have a Merry Christmas & The Happiest of New Years!
You two deserve way more likes and subscriptions than you have, hope the new year brings you more. Looking forward to the continued build.
Now that's what I'm talking about!

What the, now that is absolutely beautiful. My do that on my bus when I get it. Keep up the good work guys
Nice wild pig's
It's so bright in there! The light rings are really cool. Well done as always!
Awesome guys! Merry Christmas! You've done a wonderful job!
Great job you two its really starting to take shape love the lights and great idea with the camera's
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you as well.

A very Merry Christmas to you both, from Devon UK,... xxxx
U could market those homemade light fixtures to skoolie owners!
I lived in Cottonwood and Sedona... Never heard of st. David? LOL, I'm looking for a school bus. Going to be rolling thru America feeding homeless... I can't wait!
Stcdavid is near Benson, Az off of I-10 southeast of Tucson.
So cool! I bet you could tell me where I could find and use a 3D printer? I just need to make about 20 tiny pieces of jewelry.

What kind of machine is that making that stuff really cool. Ok keep up the good work you have my interest
It's a Chinese 6030 CNC machine with some personal upgrades😉. It has been super useful to me during this build!
Hey how do I connect the cctv system directly to my battery?
Dimmable?
Omg I didn’t Realize that this was done in 2018. This is Jan. 1, 2020. Lol I’m Sorry Know your enjoying your Bus. I can’t wait till I See The End Result. Hope you guys Had a Great New Years 2020 lol
Awe! Javelina! You must be in the sw desert?
Yup, St David, AZ!
I would like to know if you have installed a DISH Mobile Satellite Antenna on your Skoolie?
No, we just use streaming services. We still get live tv but streamed.

"This is going really easy."
Like someone at work saying, "Man, it sure is SLOW and QUIET tonight".
LOL !!!
Did ya get the package ???
Man, I sure did and thank you. I have been waiting for you to say something because I couldn't find you to thank you!!😁
Kerry put the patches and note someplace and she can't remember!🤣 it's going to turn up. Probably when we move into the bus. We collect patches. Not just EMS. We get them everywhere we go.
Glad you like them.
😎
Can you run this on 12v?
Yes, it does already!
Did you add WiFi adaptor? If so which one?
LETS DO SOMETHING ON THE BUS!!!
Gilligan Phantom Literally our favorite phrase these days! We think of you every time we say it! 👍

So there's the whole story.
HAHAHAHA!!! We loved that build! We totally feel you. We get out there expecting to finish something only to have it take 2 weeks! Busses are huge.
How do you guys plan to access your cameras remotely? You need continuous internet on the bus for that right?
That is correct
I will say it again, Dude, I want your tools!!
I just kept buying the tools I knew I was be using throughout this build.
Careful...absolute power corrupts absolutely...
That’s not a fake speaker it’s a vent for the roof the reason there are no wires
Why does everyone so afraid that they need cameras everywhere sidearm and a rifle is all I need as far as the lights you over cam you adapted

Explains the vehicle tag.
Bingo!
Looks like a pig hunt is in order
Your fake speaker grill in the ceiling was a vent
Yeah, I figured that... that said, the is enough air movement now that it became redundant.
The 74 Carpenter I had, there was a bulge on the outside above the grill on the inside
