Post on your own terms, on your own timeline. No one has a right to complain. This is the "contract" we have with our favourite RUclipsrs. This isn't regularly scheduled programming. This isn't tv. You don't have cameramen and a production company delivering a product. You're you and this is only a fraction of your life that you graciously share with us, at the pace you see fit. And we don't even have to pay for it, so who are we to complain.
Have a good week, Emma!
Well said!
When the viewers are supplying you with the budget of a TV production, then maybe they can ask for a schedule, but until then, nah.
I don't care about a time line it just really makes my day when I see you have a new video lol 🥰
Look how fast you put that cabinet together girl - you rock! You've come so far from those first measuring, scribing and assembly videos and YOU decide what videos to put out when it suits YOU, anyone who suggest otherwise can go take a walk on the wild side. 😆😆
Thank you 😊😊
Shoot… having videos ready and scheduled up in advance, thats just good project management! Let’s you take a vacation from this job and actual days off without stressing over it.
Emma Skills sure have improved tremendously...
Think a lot of your followers just enjoy your smiles and have grown to expecting certain things from you...
You live your own life, don’t worry about what other people say. Your videos are great your attitude is great. Keep doing what your doing THANKS
You are right to post when you want, we - as your fans - are entitled to nothing . I am 71 years old and watch every video and they make me smile, even laugh out loud sometimes. I love your adventurous spirit, your sweet, humorous personality and your tenacity. I wish I had had even a drop of those things when I was your age. Now, about that cabinet, did you consider that instead of trying to follow the curve of the ceiling, you could just square off the top and then use the flat top for more storage of paperwork, etc. ? Keep on keepin' on - and stay safe!!
take your time. I have been making and things for many years. Do-overs are a part of life, and they are okay at that. You are learning along the way of this bus journey. Thanks for allowing us to come along!
The music you choose for your videos is always so you. Thanks for making friday's an even more anticipated day of the week.
I like what you post when you post, I'm all about the off the cuff building, the do it and get it done attitude .
Emma as you have said it is your life most of us are thankful that you let us in. Thank You.
I always love the way you are honest about your build your life and you come across as sincere. Keep doing what you’re doing I enjoy watching the videos as I build my bus.
Thanks so much for sharing! Good idea putting the cross bars in to keep the cabinet square! Also major props for putting your own wellbeing above the needy complainers!
Ms Emma, you crack me up. Don’t ever change. Also if your breaks “freeze up” try going reverse before you beat on things, a lot of times that will release them
It is such fun to watch your videos. Entertaining as well and might I add, even educational. Sometimes it shows how not to do things 😉 but you always do your tasks with a smile even when things go not as planned. I really admire you for that Emma. This time you were rocking it and slammed your cabinet together as a semi pro. Good week, enjoy yourself, keep smiling 😄👋🇳🇱
Dear girl, you have a life, and so should we. Yes it's a pleasant surprise when one of your videos shows up (warts and all, and let's face it, you have your off days just like the rest of us). We have a lovely caravan in our yard that we still haven't been able to get shipshape, and we live five minutes walk from Bunnings (our Aussie version of Home Depot.) Life (and youtube addiction) takes over sometimes eh! Take time out to relax and don't stress about schedules. We'll still be here.
Thank you 😊
POST WHENEVER YOU WANT , IT'S YOUR SHOW 😁KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK ....
Don’t worry about being behind on videos.
It’s your life and your channel, so do what ever you want to do with it.
Just tell people you are your own boss and this is at your decision when you post videos and when not.
And they can get over their displeasure with your decisions it’s your life and channel.
No one has the right to tell you what to do or how to run this channel.
Lol. This was one of your funniest videos. I spit up my water laughing when you told people they aren’t entitled to daily updates in your life and they need to stop being weird. It woke my girlfriend. I’m a Colorado boy (now in Chicago) / you’re a Utah girl. I got your back!!
Post as you want.... you are awesome and just great to see you continuing to make progress. Take care of yourself and the rest will follow.
Have you discovered the "pull" lever under and to the right of the steering wheel? Pull opens and air hitting the front of the bus comes in. Push it (in mine I have to push it with my foot) closes it and keeps the toesies warm 😊
I don’t know why but it still doesn’t seal all the way 😭
@@EmmaBuildsBirbie Have you tried pushing on it with your foot?
Brilliant. Love the way you "fudge" things together. Thanks for the videos(whenever you post lol) 😂. It's your channel I am just the fly on the wall watching the show...
Wth ppl really get mad about the timing of your videos ? That's nuts !! Anywho I love watching you ❤ always gives me some motivation for our own bus build and you always Crack me up 🤣
Working on our kitchen currently 😊
Ah good luck!
We just love what you do and your special commentaries. It doesn’t hurt that you’re a little cutie😊❤
The inside looks so bright and cheerful ✨💖✨
BLESSED
Always look forward to your videos. Post as you see fit. Seeing a new video pop up is like finding that last Easter egg. So exciting lol 😂🥚🚎🚎🚎🚎🚎🚎🚎
Laughed out loud when you told some people to deal with it! Love the spanking and attitude.
Small Victory's! Thanks for not worrying about what people expect. You're fine, it's fine 😆 I just relate to how hard it is to finish literally, anything in my life. So, I appreciate ya.
I cheered for you when you said you would just keep going! YES! Look at that cut you made 1st try. You are amazing!
Nice... that cabinet came together well. One word for you, though: clamps. You can never have enough clamps. The solo builder's best friends are clamps. It's like another set of hands. I sure enjoy your videos, no matter when you film or upload them!
I enjoy watching this young woman building Birdie. Emma, you are amazing! Kids “need” to watch you and your build.
Emma post your videos on your on timeline and don't worry about if you behind on them. I always enjoy watching your videos. Great Video Emma 👍👍
Seriously, wool ski socks is what you need. Your feet will stay very warm in wool socks. (Need to get those breaks looked at/fixed for safety reasons).
Good to see you again.
Please remember that regular white or colored caulk can cure many minor imperfections.
You’re doing good work there, and learning much as you go.
You’ve Got This
Emma you are doing a fantastic job on your bus I love the look I been watching you since day 1 when you picked up your bus... Keep up the hard work
Wait people are getting mad/upset/irritated at you for not keeping YOU'RE videos updated in real time? Do they understand you're not a vlogger and don't post a video every other day/multiple times a week? 😂 Like why.. I just enjoy watching you progress and seeing what you're up to. I'm not ballsy enough to post my life on RUclips .. I barely even post to Facebook/instagram 😂
That's probably why I like to watch you're videos.. a real person who's not trying to glamify life. Were just along for the ride.
Thanks so much 😊😊
It still looks amazing can't wait to see what it looks like when you were done
Favorite part of my Fridays, watching your vids Emma.
You are so gifted with good vibes that you can do things that I'd do, and they'd be messed up, but it works out for you! That is sooooo cool!! Keep it up!!
I am proud of you the bus is looking great. Keep the great work up.
Looks pretty dang good to me! Another idea gets flushed out.
Cold feet invest in some smart wool socks boots mukluks .Here in Montana when we get hit with -30 Mukluks have been better keeping my feet warm and dry. Try and dress in layers also that helps a lot when you travel and sit for long periods . Found the channel today and let me say it's refreshing to see you speak honestly about your journey. The Renovation look's really great,will be following to see the finished outcome.,Stay safe keep warm.
Hallelujah you said, that fits into this space, grammar well done and so much better than the it fit here .
My favorite part of this video was hearing you tell people to stay in their lane
Good news!
Keep up your style.
That's what it's about imho.
It's not how we would do it all, it's about how you do it all.
I like following your thought processes.
No complaints.
Thank you :)
Who says the cabinet has to fit tight to the ceiling, The closet wall is your partition, and leave the top flat for larger items, maybe with a lip so as driving things on top don't fly off either in a hard braking, flying towards front of the bus or in a turn flies off towards kitchen.
love that cabinet emma. a tip for your cold feet (in case you didn't know) pick up some toe and hand warmers from wal mart of home depot. they are pretty cheap and are great for keeping your feet and hands warm.
Looks great. Remember, your channel, you do you.
Hey Emma. You are doing a great job despite what other people say just don't let fears stand in your way. Keep up the good work. Love you 💛 💛💛💛💛💐💐hope you have a great day
The ONLY reason you should worry about what some viewers think, is if you wish to run your RUclips channel as a business venture. If the intention is for profit, then the viewers that are essentially your income are important. However, if your RUclips channel is more in the nature of a hobby... viewers opinions (including this one 😀) mean diddly to your personal schedule. I started watching for the bus development as your bus is similar to the one my wife and I are planning for, so I will continue watching as long as you keep on with the bus projects. If there is time between, or they are months after actually occurring, that still suits my viewing purposes! Be you, it'll all work out, even if not how you plan.
Emma, I think you might actually be a genius.
Time! Just takes time. I’m way passed my wanted finish date!! Just one day at a time! 💕
Just happy to see what your up to when you want , your probably past this point , maybe, you could use the offcuts from your cupboard as a template for the bathroom ceiling wall curves.
All the best .
Your parking brake can stick if you park and pop it on while the brakes are really hot, or if you sit in one spot for a week or two and a little rust builds up. A lot of times, if you release the brake and give it a little bump in reverse, you can pop it loose.
Nice cabinet . . . Thanks for sharing Emma. 😁
Thanks for the update Emma! I'm glad you have enough heat to live in the bus in winter, even if it's cold when you drive!
I'll tell you a trick that I learned riding a motorcycle in the cold, that might help you when you drive the bus. Get some of those small "hand warmer" packets, and when you put on your socks, place one of those packets inside each sock, under your toes. It creates enough heat to keep your toes toasty for several hours at a time!
I'm sueprised that people sre losing thier mind over you not posting in a while, i'm just glad that you answered me back the couple of times that i commented.😁 by the way, hope you had a great Christmas & Newyears, and all the best tp you in 2023 ❤ sending you love 😊
Well done Emma! It’s awesome. You could use nice rope as the trim on those curves. Or fairy string lights. I love spending time with you every Saturday morning ( in Tasmania). Cheers
Rope as trim, I thought the same thing!! Fairy lights . . . that would be fun as well!!
Wear neoprene scuba socks in your boots, or alone. They keep your feet all nice and toasty in the winter (even tho that's not what they're for)!
Gday emma birby is coming along great i was just thinking while watching this put a thin panel under that floor in the cabinet making a secret open space for what ever just have the bottom hinge or lift out and why not just paint the bench and desk tops in place also maybe paint some thin ply black and put behind the cabinet so it cant be seen from outside . all the best
I'm guessing you removed the school bus heater in the front? You could go to a junkyard or get a small heater core or buy one at an auto parts store. Plumb it into your old heater hoses and the engine heat will warm your feet. Add a shut-off valve to reduce flow or shut off in summer. A small 'muffin' fan to blow air through it, and you've built a bus heater!
look at you emma! building like a pro! great job. =)
You do you, Em. I'm enjoying your journey and growth as you decide to share it with the world. Personally, I just love your ability to keep moving forward, even if it is not perfect. There is a lot of bravery in your decision-making that wasn't there in the past, and it's been fun watching you get to that point. Also, I love the music themes you put behind your sections. Especially that funny one when you start to spiral a few questionable choices in a row. It's impressive you have the courage to share, even the things that don't go well. It's refreshing and honest. It's a vibe that I wish more people had.
Thanks!
Emma, do what you need to do u need to make sure that u need to take the time u need there are those who have been here since day 1 that is just enjoying what ever time we get to see in to your world no matter how small. Enjoy life while u can I am jealous on how u can just pick up and go
Great job girl and we will do with what you give and love it ❤
Thank you 😊
we love you just the way you are - with all your rough edges, your often chaotic approach to things..
if you are bothered by that, please: that's kind of right too! :-)
Stay safe and sound!
Make your cabinet shelves adjustable with pegs so you can raise and lower your selves as required. Start your build in one area, finish it and move to the next. You are just going to drive yourself crazy bouncing around
I enjoy watching you I think you're awesome I'll wait for you videos I like your new cabinet you built cabinet
Great video Emma
I don't care how behind your videos are.It's your thing, you can do what you want.I would have done the same on the cabinet, just keep going.
Don't take this the wrong way but I didn't even know/realize you were behind on videos lol I'm just here for the ride 😊
Don't worry, do what you can. Who is curious, will watch to find out what is interesting, if someone is not happy, should really switch kanal. 😉 Hehe, that's called "shape picking".. You did it good, but the curvature of the roof is always bothering you. It looks promising though. To put a cabinet or something bigger together without risking to break something when only a screw or 2 holds, lay it on the front (the flat side) on the floor, so it will be easier to handle, since the side panels flapping at the top are a pain to manage and you should have 5 or 6 hands.. 😏 Other than that, you're doing some work and it's really interesting to watch your problem solving approacs.. Oh, that sweet innocently guilty look.. "should I do it?" 😇 and you're about to do it.. 😁 Cheers, Emma, keep on going.👍
i like your videos and your attitude. i will keep watching them whenever they come out. js🙂
make a sturdy box to fit the space and work around that to fill for trim... I frosted (spray) the windows that will never be open so no see thru but let light in.
Happy New Year Emma, always love a new video whenever you post. And yes, your channel, your terms. Take care and look forward to the next.
Thanks
Awesome job 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your channel, your way. Your bus Your build your way.
Your brakes shouldn't freeze. If you run in wet snow ,slush rain and it turns freezing. Let sit a few minutes. Then move forward or backwards a foot. This allows things to cool off dry off freeze but not freeze you up.
Pesky parking laws. Got to watch them enforcers.
Remember to paint the side of cabinet facing windows black. Spent the nite in Snowville, Utah, last spring and the wind came down the canyon so hard I thought a fit train was coming thru my R Pod. At 3 am went outside looked around in the dark all was well. Next am outside... two pickups with rooftop tents were long gone.... to much wind . .they folded up and drove on.
Your carpentry skills are really coming along nicely, great job,
Hi Emma.
Are you going to create an area inside the bus to livestream concerts, kinda like a tiny desk/Daryl's house kinda thing. "Boogie on the Bus" could be a name for it or something like that.
Sending you good vibes from London.
You are the most entertaining person that I watch on y/tube..live from Australia 🇦🇺 downunder. 😁
Honey I love you and your videos. Now with that being said please fix and hide all of your wiring....my OCD is going bonkers whenever I see that mess! Lol
Your videos are great! Keep smiling and enjoy your experiences. 🙂
I like your attitude
BTW, I want you to meet my Nephew From Denmark. Jannik, come to Florida, park your bus in our Humble Little Jungle and Jannik can help with whatever you need.
He's tall and good looking, soft spoken and very skilled. 😁
Don't listen to anyone!!! You do you,that is good enough!!!!!!
You can buy heated socks! I think the heat lasts for 10 hours from a USB charge.
Love the videos,
Doing great
I depend on regular content from you to distract me from my own projects. I'm not sure how I feel about having to take responsibility for my own procrastination. Seriously though, just post when it's fun for you. Look forward to watching whenever you feel like sharing!
Very good points that I had not considered 😂 luckily I’ve not been missing posts, just posting things that were filmed a while back!
Thanks!
Happy Easter
so nice
You rock!!
Hey gorgeous thanks for another great video your awesome
Didn’t you have a pocket hole jig at one point? They’re good for cabinetry and the 1x2 inner framework pieces. They can serve same purpose as the metal angle brackets.
Emma, Emma, Emma.........You're AMAZING!!!!!!
Emma your too funny. 😂😂
I still say use Rope for Trim trick! Hides flaws well........ Not that you have flaws.🤣🤣🤣! Just kidding! Love all your Video's 🙂
A military secret for keeping your feet warm. First layer: cotton socks, second layer: Nylon socks, last layer Wool socks. Never have cold feet again I promise.
"Cheers"
Huah
Ps...try and use a length of matching rope glued to cover join ...🫤
