The Adventures of a School Bus Conversion to a Home that is Just Right for us. About Chris and Kelly. We can't even begin to express how valuable the inspiration and advice we've received from other bus converters has been in helping us build our little home. This page is dedicated to sharing other bus conversions, completed or in progress, so that others can continue to be inspired and fascinated by the ingenuity that is the skoolie community.

Insulation | the Anne Marie
http://bus.life/tag/insulation
When we last left off, we still had water flowing uninterrupted into our precious living quarters. Well, maybe it was only a trickle, but it was still entirely too much. With the bus stripped back down to bare metal, we tried to figure out a solution. But the bus still had obligations to meet. Our old insulation fit easily in place on the floor, and we covered it with 1/2″ plywood this time instead of 1/4″. This does give us a more smooth and even subfloor to build on. We skipped the ...We insulated the ...

Anxiety | the Anne Marie
http://bus.life/tag/anxiety
What’s the hold up? It’s been a rough spring for the Anne Marie. As the weather warmed up, we started spending more time in there, and began construction of a new unit. It came together quickly, and we set our eyes on installing the woodstove. Taking a closer look at the section set aside for the woodstove, we noticed some water damage on the plywood subfloor and water marks on the insulation on the walls. Oh crap. What’s going on? Alright – everything out! I’d be lying if I said that this didnR...

What We're Working Towards | the Anne Marie
http://bus.life/2012/08/21/what-were-working-towards
What We’re Working Towards. This open layout does accommodate less stuff than traditional RV designs, but in exchange there are breath-taking views each and every direction you look. The full length of windows are open for viewing, which makes the space feel that much larger. And the bus itself can be seen and admired. Though it gives up a fair amount of storage space, all the essentials are there. Though sadly I haven’t been successful in contacting either the creators or the present owners. When I was ...

Ceiling | the Anne Marie
http://bus.life/tag/ceiling
The ceiling is complete! We finished the ceiling! After much deliberation and research on how best to secure the wood to the frame, we wound up going with plain old screws. The hardware isn’t as visible as we had feared, and gives us some peace of mind that the wood hanging above our heads will remain there. There is, however, a pattern to the boards. It’s too subtle to see, but each row of boards starts one rib back from the one before it. It repeats four times across the ceiling. Live Love Travel Dream.

Chimney | the Anne Marie
http://bus.life/tag/chimney
With our hearth done, the next step is to make our wood stove. Usable. We need to run some stove pipe up and out of the roof. First, we secured the stove to the floor so we have a steady starting point. I’d never drilled into masonry before, but it turns out that with a masonry bit it’s pretty easy. Everything is easy with the right tools. So we cut a hole in the wood, then in the metal roof. Then we cut a hole in the deck. Inside, we covered the ceiling hole with another piece of the DuraVent flashing&#...

Desk | the Anne Marie
http://bus.life/tag/desk
We’ve divided our interior into individual units that will together make up our living area. We’ve finished roughing out two of these. Our dropleaf desk is on the port side immediately behind the driver seat. We haven’t completely finished it yet, since the legs that will support the leaf won’t be installed until the flooring is installed. This will also house all of our electronics including our battery bank, charge controller, and inverter. Live Love Travel Dream. Hank Bought A Bus. See The Full List.

Brick | the Anne Marie
http://bus.life/tag/brick
Every home needs a hearth. It’s the beating heart of a living space. Our bus is no exception. Our hearth is almost purely for aesthetics. The Kimberly woodstove. We’re using has ridiculously tiny clearances, and we have given it much more room than is necessary. In addition, the vent pipe we’re using only has a 1″ clearance to combustibles, so let me preface all this by saying the space we’ve allocated is overkill. We had some brick left over, and used it to make a little accent wall along our counter.
