Standing Desk/Cabinet, Kitty Kennel, Stain, Trim & More Skoolie Stuff!

It was fun to have a less demanding job this time, creating a built-in kennel space for our cat and a media cabinet that doubles as a standing desk! Our Kitty-kennel will have a cupboard door that allows kitty-access all the time, until we slide in a removable kennel grate when we need to keep her inside for safety reasons. The other cupboard door allows access to her litter box, which will be vented with a small fan as soon as it arrives! 
We had already planned to build a media cabinet in the space between our dinette and the driver's seat, and we had a piece of our butcher block counter top leftover that seemed to be just the right size. At the last second, we decided to make it taller, so it could also be used as a standing desk... which also creates even more storage space! 
We also finished up some staining and trimming around the dinette, and Mike got creative with a mystery project for the back of one of the dinette seats! Those little finishing touches that make this Skoolie truly "ours!"

Kreg Jig R3 Pocket Hole Jig System - This is an updated version of what I show in this video.  They don't make the one i showed anymore! This is an improved version and actually quite a bit more advanced than the one I showed.  That is why I posted this link.

Kreg SML-C125-250 1-1/4" Coarse Thread Number 8 Zinc Coated Pocket Hole Screws (250 Count) - I mainly use this size of screw because it is for 3/4" material attaching to 3/4" material.  Occasionally I use larger but this is my goto.

BOSTITCH BTCK410L2 18V Lithium 2-Tool Combo Kit - This is the driver/drill combo I use and actually purchased a second driver. This is a solid alternative to Dewalt no matter who tells you different. This entire skoolie whas built with them and they have never even hiccuped during use.

About Us:

Hi! We are Mike & Kerry, the proud owners of  a 1992 Bluebird rear engine (pusher), 40' school bus! We named her Bussy McBusface in honor of the RRS Boaty McBoatface travesty! 
We're building a Tiny-Home-in-a-Bus for full-time living in the most adventure-friendly way possible! In other words, Bussy will not be parked in our driveway, waiting for weekend or holiday getaways... when we finish the build, we'll be packing everything we're keeping into the bus and driving away from this old house forever!  
We plan to be boondocking the majority of the time, so you'll see that reflected in our choices throughout the build (100 gallon water tank, composting toilet, solar power system, etc).  We'd love to have you stick around and follow us on our journey, throughout the Skoolie Build, and to Infinite Adventures Beyond!

Mike & Kerry
