This & That On The Skoolie Build


Joseph found an inverter on sale, and installed it in the bus.  This will convert 12V battery power to 120V AC power, basically normal household current.



I've been meaning to tell you he applied for the bus title to be changed to an RV title, aka a "house car" in NC, and was delighted when it arrived a few weeks later.  It will mean lower insurance.  It also means he won't have to get another CDL license, which he let lapse in the past few years.  



He began the framing, which is pretty exciting!  He's framed out the back wall of the bus, and inserted insulation and our stained glass window.  Though there will still be plenty of infrastructure-type things to do, I'm happy we're getting to a pretty part of the build!

That's so interesting that the exact same vehicle listed as a bus requires a CDL and as an RV doesn't. The stained-glass window looks so pretty there!

Yes, if the bus still has seats, and could be used to haul passengers, it requires a CDL; otherwise not.

That document must have brought a smile to your faces! It's moving right along.

It did, and is indeed!
