DIY SCHOOL BUS TINY HOUSE CONVERSION EP. 1

DIY SCHOOL BUS TINY HOUSE CONVERSION EP. 1 | MODERN BUILDS

День тому

How to Renovate a School Bus into a Tiny House / RV. Today on Modern Builds I'm starting my biggest DIY project to date. I'm turning a vintage SCHOOL BUS into a mobile TINY HOUSE on wheels!! This bus build will be a six part series, with each episode focusing on the buildout of an individual room (bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living room, & exterior). I'm calling this first episode the "clean slate" episode to get the bus ready for the episodes to come; I tackle the demo, design, interior paint, framing, basic electrical, and plumbing rough ins. It's a lot, but I've done my best to keep all the information as clear as possible. Thanks for watching and subscribe for more bus conversion goodness. (materials and supplies linked below)

It’s so cool to go back and watch this again, this was the first video I ever watched on your channel and I have watched almost every one since. You are truly one of the best UKpostsrs out there

@sergiogsr 4 роки тому

Suggestion for the guys trying it: Rust is the worst enemy of this type of vehicles. Always check the floor, walls and roof. Look for leaks or damage. Check the structure that holds the metal sheets and try to fix your interior structure to the steel structure (instead of the metal sheets). Unfortunately this may mean removing the floor and part of the walls. I recommend it and also look for mold. The old insulation might have some of that also. I'm not totally sold on screwing the wood beams to the metal sheet. I would prefer to create brackets and weld those to the structure, paint everything and the bolt the wood beams to the bracket. Always put a circuit/fuse box if you are mixing big metal boxes, water and electricity. You will be driving and things might break or get loose damaging the installation. You might suffer a traffic accident and a bus fire is no joke. Finally, consider that a big metal box will change dimensions with the temperature (interior and exterior). You might need to consider this in order to avoid warping or breaking wood. That also plays an important factor on reducing the noise while driving. On the mechanical side, check suspension, axel, brakes condition and lubrication on all those points. Consult a diesel mechanic and hear their ideas about the project. You even might take advantage on the original electric installation, or neumatic lines included on the truck.

@ModernBuilds 4 роки тому

Awesome info!! thanks

@sergiogsr 4 роки тому

I've tried to be as positive and constructive as possible, but the work that is shown on the video is a little disappointing and can be dangerous if the guys following the channel try it without a correct planning and guidance. I know that the channel is for DIYers, (damn, even my self I have been optimistically ignorant of some of the challenges I faced in my life, but I always tried to reduce the risk, at least the risk to injury others). Until today, the risk of getting hurt, sick or to injure someone else with the projects was really low. This build takes the risk to another level (I know, you have your disclaimer) I'm not comfortable on how it's presented. As your pal Four Eyes has said on his videos, designing and planning how tackle the problems and needs is the trickiest part of a build. Everybody can use a tool. Planning should have taken a bigger part of the video. Sorry for the text wall. Keep the good work, but more importantly, keep yourself safe and healthy (and help to keep the followers safe too).

@johnjacobjinglehimerschmid3555 4 роки тому

Seems like in these skoolie type vids ... not seeing much in the way about .... the "mechanical" aka engine and drive train information. Seems to me ... that spending a few grand having the engine gone over and what ever.

@Belg1970 4 роки тому

If I can add think about ways to minimize weight in your build, remember your going to be hauling all this around wherever you go. Your building with the mentality of a home reno, way too many studs thinner skins, I build two of these and have learned to build thin solid panels with 3/4" furring strips and 1/4" skins. Watch a video on how they build rv's cabinets. Added solid foam in exterior walls and in walls for extra rigidity. In my mind just saying your not an electrician or plumber doesn't excuse doing bad work, the electrical dangers are just as real in a vehicle as they are in a home. As for plumbing this is where you really need to be positive of what your doing vibrations/potholes will really take a toll on these components, small leak can cause MAJOR problems down the road. Mold wood rot .... Please leave areas like this removable for servicing. Good luck with the build and please do some more research on planning and prep, IE lighting, switches, speaker wiring, water, heat/ac ventilation, exhaust fan....... before putting in the "pretty".

@brad3378 4 роки тому

Before you get too deep into this project, I humbly suggest using Dow Corning Foamular (or similar) insulation board inside the gaps in the wall. It's easy to cut with hand tools and easy to apply with liquid nails adhesive. If you care about the gaps, you can fill them in with a few cans of Great Stuff spray foam insulation. Besides making the interior more comfortable, it will pay for itself by reducing the need to burn diesel to run the air conditioner.

quick tip for making templates is taking a 4x8 sheet of cardboard and cutting it into 2" strips and making your border as well adding supports so it doesn't fall apart when you pull it down. hot glue is used to attach the pieces together and small dabs can be used to keep the template up while it's being made. I did granite/marble work for several years and its the fastest way I've found aside from a laser system and a heck of alot cheaper.

@DatBoiOrly 4 роки тому

Theres so many different things that were done wrongly or poorly I'll list them off for you; 1.Painting over the stickers when they start to sweat they'll peel off under the paint either taking the paint around it best to remove them 2.the coolant spillage when removing it you should of once turned off undid the clamp above it and let it drain that way. 3.screwing into the roof without any sealant best to use a metal washer with a nylon washer on the self tapers it'll stop any future problems of the wood rotting and such. 4.using those angles its completely pointless using those only causes more play in the walls which is typically bad in something that gets a lot of vibrations from road use to fix this stagger your spars out and drill and screw them every bit as strong and you don't have to waste your money on 100s of angles. 5. Painting the floors vinyl typically doesn't stick well to anything so spraying that primer on will cause peeling using the resin based paint was a great idea but not so much the primer and the same goes for the lack of cleaning stains and such vinyl is extremely funny whether it'll stick or not. I ain't doing this out of hate or anything like that I just want you learn and improve :p wish you all the best in the build.

Great start to a series! Also, those boots are awesome. They look like they really hold up in a work environment. What brand are they?

Does the outside of the bus has all the screws points out? "Hellraiser type"? How do you covered them?

Before i started the video i was going to make a smart ASS comment saying" I wonder if he left the sticker on the bus like he does sometimes on the sheets of plywood. I started laughing when he said he is leaving the stickers and painting over them.

You really have a hard on for Mike huh? You comment on a lot of his videos. 😂

Call this the landlord special bus. Painting over half the stuff in the bus and jerry rigging the framing to get it attached to the bus. I like it, its just funnily similar to how slumlords "renovate" their rentals.

Thanks for giving a guide on what Not to do when converting a bus to live in.

that bus did an amazing transformation thus far!!!

@GaingsterKid 2 роки тому

First I was worried about the fact that he didn't change any window. I thought of all the nergy loss when heating or cooling the bus. But then I discovered that he didn't even insolate the floor or walls. This bus is gonna be a pain in the arse to cool or heat.

@CoyoteKin 2 роки тому

Yeah. I was wondering why he hadn't installed any insulation.

@ZombieWolvez55 Рік тому

yo and the electrical plug with exposed wire 14:10. so the walls and floor are going to sweat and possibly short circuit.

@TheDrakenZ Рік тому

and the thickness of his walls, couldve taken a lesson from trailers and RV's... their walls are super thin, to cut down on weight, for obvious reasons.
