- Dave Mowitz heads back to school, but it's not on the bus he remembers. The Braaten farm operation needed a service truck that could hold a shop's worth of tools plus a place to get in from the weather. The Braaten's invested in an old school bus for that vehicle to not only get a shop on wheels, but a mobile dining area as well.

A lot of Great Ideas are from Farmers. They’re sitting on a tractor always thinking of making the job easier
Awesome , makes my F 350 tool truck look a little weak . No better feeling than having a mobile well stocked shop .
Add "fuel" tanks off the frame underbody for bulk antifreeze, engine oil or hyd oil. We had the same set up at the school for a service vehicle. Watch the floors crossmembers for metal fatigue. Could even build in a porta poddy .
composting toilet would be useful. didnt cross my mind
Pretty smart as old school buses can be had for little or nothing.
Somehow I can never find inexpensive busses. Usually someone wants to spend too much money on one just for the engine and transmission...
Pretty nice setup! Still room for more.... But no crane😪
Im used to the short bus!
To hell with buying an enclosed trailer, I'm going with a surplus school bus!
Great job thinking out of the box.
Nice!!!
Hell if a bus made the top shop list my shop should be even better. I'm not a farmer with a 12000 sf shop, but I'm a worker/garage door guy with a laid out shop with some nice touches.
Great video!!!
Very cool
Prices are sky high. People buy them now to convert to an RV. And some rival the best custom homes...
"good gravy"...LOL
What I did to my vehicle years ago to rid myself of the compressor noise was to use an old a/c compressor attached to the engine to compress my air. On the way to a job my tank would be filled. Just a reminder I believe the older type a/c compressors from the 60's 70's and some 80's can be converted not the new.
York compressors are the most common used for onboard air, they have a separate oil reservoir instead of the oil being in the A/C coolant like newer compressors.
Great Idea!! The only thing that concerns me, it looks like with ALL of the heavy tools, and parts in the rear, and really only the open dining area in the front, that thing is really light on the front axle
where can i get insurance for my conversion bus. all insurance companies that i have talked with want to charge 2400. for 6 months like it was still a shuttle bus.
That thing has got to be LOUD inside with a generator INSIDE and an air compressor INSIDE. Geez
Those DeWalt tools alone were $1200.
Outta put a little Smithy Mill/Drill/Lathe on that thing
Those are garbage
It's ought, not out.
Well Gawlee I sure glad yo spelling n grammarin dunned saved us from a feiry doom. And I actually keep one for in the field repairs. My 4 ton horizontal Cincinnati, 12’ bed LeBlond, and Bridgeport are a bit much to drag around. Oh, and I’m a machinist by trade with 27 years of experience. I think I can decide what is and isn’t garbage just fine.
@@jasonlaughon2897 Keep thinking. Clearly your strong suit.
@@mwilliamshs you posted 4 comments here and all of them are so bitter. What happened?
They haul sweet potatoes around here.
He's sitting in the bus. His eyes are open.
"I think we broke down and put a TV in it too"
The TV is shown on camera as he speaks.
Does he have dementia? He is uncertain of the TV's presence?
Lift gate
handicap buses are decent if you aren't lifting a LOT of weight.
