@CindyBarg Год назад

@@WolfDogBuses Hello WD, stellar build : ) Are there any leaking/condensation problems with those original windows?

@WolfDogBuses Год назад

@@CindyBarg great question! Any window will have condensation in a small home with people in it breathing.. trick is to have air flowing when cooking (low setting on the max air fan will do) and if you have guests over, cracking the windows a half inch will prevent excessive moisture build up… but ultimately, if you dont, its not a huge deal, because that water will dry, and condensation wont form behind the walls when properly insulated :)

@WolfDogBuses Год назад

@@CindyBarg as for leaking- we reseal all windows when the client chooses to keep them, they shouldnt leak anytime soon, but when they do (every hole in the bus including all the ones from exterior rivots will leak eventually) we drill small weep holes in each bay under windows to prevent excessive build up in the future.. some newer buses even come with this feature!

@noahlomax1 Год назад

That's an amazing build!!!! It's definitely prepped for any form of an apocalypse. Question, if I may, as this is my first time seeing the camera setup; what camera setup did you install that allows you to see the bus from the top, front and I assume the sides and back?

@WolfDogBuses Год назад

Thank you! We had so much fun building for this client, they had a purpose in mind! The camera system is Weivision’s 1080P FHD 360 Degree Bird View. There is a camera on the front, rear and both sides of the bus to allow for 360’ monitoring! It utilizes wide angle lenses to splice together the 360 “top-down” view

@noahlomax1 Год назад

@@WolfDogBuses I truly appreciate your response with the camera system information too. I've subscribed to your channel after watching your other builds. I have a Blue Bird TC2000 similar to the pink one you've built. Mine is from 1993 though.

Love the bus but i hope you fixed the one issue i saw. If your fire extinguisher is near the door then that means that you would have to go through any fire in order to reach it. There needs to also be an extinguisher near your bed to protect you (unless missed one already in place in the back).

@EricWhiteheadewleonardspock 7 месяцев назад

I've watched a lot of bus conversion videos over the last few months and this is by far one of the best! I especially like how the bathroom is behind the kitchen and the shower head is in the tallest part of the bus so you can take a normal shower without a roof raise. There's also loads of space which is amazing. I do have one question though: was this previously a school bus, or was it an activity bus? I ask because the lack of windows in that middle section on the drivers side as well as the lack of an emergency door are surprising to me. If I were the customer, I would want the windows (and especially the door) on that side to stay in, so I'm wondering if they weren't there to begin with?

@WolfDogBuses 7 месяцев назад

Thank you! You must be doing some research to note things like the centered shower head and missing side emergency exit! This was a school bus and we removed those windows/doors In accordance with what the owners wanted, they were comfortable with the rear emergency exit and wanted wall space to hang family photos 😊
