I built a ROOFTOP DECK on my Skoolie E350 | Bus Conversion

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Roof Deck is complete!! With (4) cedar 2x6's, (26) cedar 1x4's, a bunch of sand paper and even more patients... This deck is ready for some sun bathing.
Originally I used this orange stain that I was hesitant about, yet painted the whole frame. I called it "trump skin orange". The next day I woke up and sanded it all away and went dark!
Propane weed torch and some dark stain covered up all orange evidence.
This puppy is extremely sturdy. Points of connection: (4) skoolie.com feet AND (4) chunks of wood in the middle. I didnt show you this part but if you've read this far, keep reading. its key for a secure roof. So the edges are secured by the feet, but the "apex" of the roof is only about an inch from the deck frame. So I wedged in a chunk of treated wood with some rubber on the side that touches the bus, and that added a lot more stability. Not sure how well I explained that.... Comment if you have q's on that.
I recently installed the ladder, but it didn't make it into this video. Will show next.
Grizzly work has been taking up a lot of my computer screen time, so I try limiting it in my time off. Therefore my videos are slowing down, but they WILL follow through the whole build!!
Heres some links to my latest product videos for Grizzly:
• NEW Grizzly Quick Gear...
• Grizzly Manual Tube Be...
Thanks for watching!

    Welcome to the community! Many of us are introverts that mostly don't know what we're doing either 🤭 I'm Amber and I live in a bus named Sue 😉 say hello if you see me on the road!

    My favorite part was the part where you talked about the knats that got stuck in the paint…”I’m a killer” 😂 but 😔 but 😂

    I just got this exact same bus with 104,000 original miles for only $5000 which was a old church bus that was recently converted but we definitely want to add a roof deck

    Great deal!! Powerstroke 7.3 as well? Roof deck is really fun, but I wish I stained a few more coats to it before installing, because applying stain installed will be tricky to not drip on white roof.

    Hey how's the bus going? I'm converting a short bus like yours. Don't know what to do with the door as there's a huge air gap and it's cold out here in Everett, WA
