Skinning a bus...the sides and rear corners.

[@LivingSmallLivingMobile1]

Outstanding video. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@RollingLiving]

Thanks - I hope it helps!

[@LacroixCruiser]

Excellent craftsmanship!

[@RollingLiving]

Coming from you and Sylvie, and seeing the quality of your work, that means a lot to me. Thanks, Yvan.

[@orthogluchensnable6777]

Man it looks good rivets are done well

[@garydavis786]

You sure have informative videos! I am so glad that I've found your channel. I don't have a bus, but I do have a Transit van that I have converted to an RV. I like accurate and precision work and you do both!

The chickens are good to show after a long time off work.

5200 is no joke you won't have to worry about it coming back apart or leaking. Nice metal work.

[@RollingLiving]

Thanks...and, yes, 3M 5200 is about as permanent as I have found. It's not cheap, but we use it on all of our raises and other places we want joined permanently. I really appreciate your kind comment and support - as a new KZbin poster, that is very motivating.

[@adrielrowley]

Looking good! I would also consider the 5200 preventing any rubbing metal and the resulting noise.

[@jeffr0]

very nice attention to detail.

[@drkoontz]

Great videos, I love your craftsmanship!

[@jnjentinc]

Man, great info to put out!! Can’t wait to stop by and lend a hand soon.

[@RollingLiving]

Anytime, Josh. We've got a nice parking spot for you!

[@missyasche881]

I'll make sure to show my husband this. We are to do a roof raise for a friend and we've never done one. She wants the raise to be cut below the window :) We need all the info we can get! Thanks for videoing your work.

[@RollingLiving]

Right on, Missy! We've done several roof raises and one trolly top raise...but I've never been one to record what we're doing...until now. I've uploaded videos on each step of this roof raise and the one on planning the cut might be helpful, too. Let me know how yours goes and feel free to reach out if you have questions.

about the sealant ruining cleeco's : i read a book about a guy using cleeco's and glue on a racecar wing , he dropped those cleeco's intoo a tin can with acethone , and just left them in there untill he needed them , gotten them clean even when covered in the goop

[@willr69420]

*Wow. Compelling, interesting video.*

[@danielkeirsteadsr2162]

Have you tried using clico place holder rivets. airplane builders use them . No ripples no gaps, perfect alignment.

[@Oregontrailblazin]

I love the F- Bomb !

[@lquinn7212]

I've had metal removed from my eyes twice. I would definitely recommend eye protection.

[@lukesebree1244]

Thank you so much for this video! By far the most informative and well-thought out roof raise series I've found. Would you recommend hot rolled or cold rolled steel for the sheeting?

[@imsorry9467]

The gloves are great but please add ear and eye protection the list list of PPE you use.

[@bmxican1023]

What type of sheet metal are you using for this? Is it just regular carbon steel sheet metal? 1018? Galvanized? A36/A500 type Structural?

[@jiGGaWHAAAA]

I've been searching everywhere for the correct rivet. My criteria were 1/4" diameter stainless rivets but NONE of the suppliers have CLOSED END rivets in the 1/4" size. (They carry the exact item in 3/16, but not 1/4.) I thought it would be smarter to use closed end to make it more waterproof. Any reason you don't use closed end, or ideas why that doesn't seem to exist?

[@RollingLiving]

Actually, I thought I shared that I only use closed end stainless rivets. It might be in another video in that series...but I do show the difference. I drill out the holes and use 1/4-inch closed end rivets, so they fit tightly and the head size matches the factory bus rivet diameters I get rives from Jay-Cee Rivets (rivetsonline.com) or Byler Rivet. Both carry 1/4-inch closed end stainless rivets.

[@terryallen6688]

What size air compressor and tank do you need for the metal shears?

[@justinupshaw672]

I have an blue bird 3800 what's the cost or charge to have this done?

[@kkbodyshop]

Do you have a link to the riverts?

[@madtrucker3757]

Do u sell these buses when they’re done?

[@turdferguson74]

Is it for camels?

[@johnclayton1026]

or a deburring tool

Slinkey Jingle: From what little you showed, I'm sure your videographer is to young to know that one 🙄
