    Kerry, I know space is at a premium in a skoolie, but I would save a small box of pieces in case you need to do a repair. I've been a long haul truck driver for 23 years, and I know how the road can shake stuff loose

    I've gone searching for a seascape mosaic idea to do in my bathroom and yours is beautiful! I laughed to myself when I realized that while I was watching it that I am wearing the same shirt as Mike is in this video! 💙

    I love your videos. It’s helped me through the last year of chemo, twice, radiation and 4 surgeries. I’m on the mend and everyday should be lived like it’s your last. I think what y’all are doing is admirable and I’m green with envy. I going to start redoing my RV in January so I can hit the road when I have enough energy to complete my renovation. As a retired architect I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’d do a skoolie but I don’t have that much time and I don’t have Mike’s hands on skills. Remember cut twice and measure once. I look forward to seeing you adventurous videos of y’all traveling on the road with Miss Kitty. Happy trails from the sunny and now cool north Georgia mountains. 🌈🌞

      There is a reason your still here on earth, and "God Has A Bigger Calling For You." Dig in and get as much done to be road worthy, and meet new RVers they can help you finish it out as you go. God's calling will present itself to you when He's ready. Don't sweat it and just do it!!! I'm a survivor also, and I just started on a 40' Van Hool conversion. Do the bedroom first so when you get a little tired you can rest comfietable, and keep your cell on you at all times.
      God Bless You,

    • @BussyMcBusface
      @BussyMcBusface  4 роки тому

      Kerry got an early start separating items she wanted to keep but the reality is that we were ruthless in decisions we made. At first it was difficult saying goodbye to things that you wanted to do something with someday. After a Time it became way easier to grab handfuls of things and throw them in the trash. The reality was that we were storing things that we never touched and holding on to things that we probably were never going to use again. Except for some sentimental items and some hard to replace items, it wasn't that hard to separate ourselves from our junk.

  • @johnkinnane547
    @johnkinnane547 4 роки тому

    G'day it will be interesting to see if the tile adhesive stands up to the job, it's not meant for excessive movement and the bangs and the vibration of the bus, the stuff is meant for a house wall with little to no movement. Construction adhesive or some silicone that can take the movement and shock of the movement of the bus, but good luck guys and I really hope that it works out, if not you can always add silicone or similar bit by bit. John

  • @dzlfreek
    @dzlfreek 4 роки тому +1

    that looks amazing! I wonder, though, because of the smooth finish of the plates that adhesion is going to be an ongoing issue. If you look at tile, the grout side is porous and rough, giving the thin set something to bite into. Oh well, just keep some grout, thin set and some tile tools on the bus with you and fix it when it breaks.

    It would be more expensive and time consuming, but it would look so good if you used multiple colors of grout: blue for the sky, white for the clouds, etc. Please give it a little thought.
    I regrouted a grey kitchen counter with white, and it didn’t even have time to set up before I was scraping it all out to redo it in grey. Worth it though.

    Dear Ms K, while Mike seems to be something of an open book, you, on the other hand are a walking enigma. I have decided that you were, at one time, THAT teacher; probably elementary or in the arts but nonetheless, THAT teacher who like Ferris Bueller, was adored by the Goths, the Graters, the Heads, etc. as a "righteous dude". Maybe not in this life, but sometime, somewhere you were the teacher that young women wanted to be and even the scruffiest boy broke his dour facade to release the artist within.
    On a scale of 1-10, might I be a Sherlock or more of a Schlock? In any case, we admire your Beauty to Mike-gyver's crusty Beast.
    BTW, your work of art shower is a masterpiece and really should in the Louvre, not "the Loo"!

  • @sophiainoregon8768

    Love your bus! You two have done a fabulous job. Did you by any chance save a few pieces of each color of tile just in case a few break down the road? I'm hoping they won't but seems you would have trouble matching colors? Just a thought. Both of you have a wonderful week.

    • @oldtimerlee8820

  • @Big-Kei
    @Big-Kei 2 роки тому

    Question.... why didn't you guys use e600 glue instead of thinset? In the wall concrete or cement or something? Genuine question tho....I've seen people use e600 doing mosaic tiling on sinks and vanities. Then they used grout on the whole thing. This is beautiful BTW. 😍

  • @vivaldi1236

  • @KMF3
    @KMF3 4 роки тому

    What I've learned is you need to have smaller pieces around your main focal point and then your pieces can get larger as the area is further away from your focal point. And you need to have some tile Nippers to be able to shape your pieces

  • @rennemichaels2706
    @rennemichaels2706 4 роки тому

    I think, since the plate pieces are also glazed on both sides, so there isn't a good amount of tooth on the back side for the thin set to grab onto.

  • @watahyahknow
    @watahyahknow 4 роки тому +1

    Doesnt matter a lot with the walls but make real shure to lay the tiles flat on the floor if one of the points are slightly up even a tiny bit theres a big chance you cut youre foot on it you could sand all the glazed edges but tuat be a LOT of work
    the mount of tilebits in the big bin reminds me of sumting a filipino neighbour of mine did , she used to send balac bayan boxes to the filipines , those are boxes that are send there for a set price and are not limited in weight or by wat you want to put in it , i just need to fit inside the box , the boxes get consolidated intoo a sea container and redistrubuted once on the islands
    whenll they chaged that policy slightly with a maximum weight after my neighbour decided to fill the box up with glazed tiles for her new home in the filipines turning the box intoo a clay block of roughly the same size as the size of the box , the guy picking the box up for shipping allmost couldnt lift it and he still had to go down 4 flights of stars with it

      Liquid nails is mastic and will fail due to prolonged water intrusion. Liquid nails is an organic compound that decays when exposed to water. Liquid nails is a very poor choice of adhesion.
