 Hello good morning from Colorado Technically the afternoon, but it's morning somewhere in the world So this is a propane tank. I picked up the other day. I bought it off JT over at Colorado custom coach works They actually don't sell this one anymore. This is the exact same one. I had on Danny adventure bus The only other option was a larger one, which was more expensive Who knew propane tanks were so freaking expensive. So this morning well afternoon technically I'm gonna mount that sucker right in between this little tow hook and then that little cross beam there and I'm gonna disobey that sign there. I'm gonna drill holes through the frame looks like I'm gonna take these guys to the store For the rest of that adventure check out their video Because I'm gonna leave the camera here and we're gonna focus on the install, but read I Guess is giving away my shuttle vehicle. That's Reed's extra car So what happened was these guys showed up a couple nights ago Then Reed got back from a trip They all got talking and then because they have a small car like you guys saw in the tour video Reed was like, well, why don't you take the car? I got an auction for 650 bucks. So he's Why don't you let me have the carola for a while and you guys take this and then when you guys come back around on in what five months We'll just swap again That's right, so we're gonna go to the store. I'm gonna go with them That's right. I'm gonna go with them to the store help them pick out some stuff But I'm gonna continue on in this video with the install of the propane tank So this one is about 35 inches This bus frame seems a little bit more narrow than my previous bus. Let's take a look. So we got a little issue This frame will not fit my tank between the thing so I Guess an option would be to mount it like this. Yes, that doesn't really work though so This is gonna be a couldn't you grant up part of the frame more of a pain in the ass We could we could cut the frame notch it No, we could I don't know Brace I can move maybe move that cross brace over Or I could just reverse it And put it the other way. I don't know. What do you guys think this thing bows out? You see This thing bows out like that. I could reverse it and just go boop 180 it and then that way I could at least mount it from here to here. Oh Man wasn't expecting this. I was assuming it'd be the same width. So Anyways, good to know something learn. I assume you knew you were doing You guys should all know by now that I don't really know what I'm doing It is part of fun it is Because everything you learn you learn something new every day really truly I learned something new every single day I'm having a hard time getting these Bolts off and you can see that that's what happens. I know a couple people were like, what about the light? We can't see what happens is when there's a bright part in a dark part. It will always Go towards a brighter part even if it only takes up a part of the screen. That's how cameras work That's how this auto-focusing works anyways watch Like I said having a hard time getting the Bolt off here, so I'm just gonna heat this thing up because when you heat up metal it expands and contrasts Hopefully I'll be able to get this bolt off not really sure how much of this Flame I need to get on it, but you know hey You only know when you try Turning into quite a pain in the ass Either my impact driver is not strong enough. I Didn't put enough heat on there or perhaps I should be using PB blaster overnight on these bolts Because they are just super super tight on there, which isn't a bad thing. I know Because it is a safety thing it's structural and you know what these things to be loose, but I just want to just reverse this thing and then I can use this to mount the propane tank So This is current life situation. We're under the bus. So the lights not gonna be great, but Kyle used to work in aircraft stuff Cool, so he happened to find a jack Jack bar and so what I'm doing is so put your jack bar in there again, so he's helping me out I'm torching it To the point where once it starts to once he tells me it's moving He said it's moving. I'm then gonna grab this impact driver and then Don't touch those because they're super hot We're gonna do the same thing on this side and then reverse this whole thing like I was talking about and use this to mount my propane tank along with this back piece here If Yeah, we can do that if anybody thought we weren't gonna be able to pull this out in between the frame you were 100% correct but what we did do is we we We took it and we just hit it with a mallet and reverse it like so so now I have a little bit of play You see how that one that's flat across the bottom had dips down so this one now dips up But at least I have some space because what was back here nothing it was just in case you wanted to run the exhaust I have no idea that's what that one's meant for is the exhaust right so if they were right if you wanted to make it I have no idea. So what we're doing now is we're just putting the bolts back in we use a torch method So yeah, it looks like it's gonna work. I've never done that before ladies and gentlemen This is what it looks like now. I'm sure someone's gonna say. Oh structurally that's wrong whatever I'm sure it's gonna be just fine. All right, ladies and gentlemen boys and girls I got myself a piece of metal from the metal place, you know I love people who aren't in Los Angeles or another big city where they don't really care about you I haven't a call the metal place and I said hey, I need a piece of metal before the weekend Would you guys mind staying open for me? And they said actually we do mind but give us your credit card number and We'll leave it in the flower bed So I bought it over the phone and went and picked it up. It's kind of overkill honestly, but it's gonna work So I'd rather have lose something a little bit stronger than something a little bit weaker that could possibly break Spray-painted the angle iron I marked and drilled out some holes which correspond to this and You know, I'm just about ready to install this bad boy through the magic of filmmaking These bolts are already through Those are already through It was very easy. I'd used to use a Metal bit. I think this is a three eights I forget and then I used a little cone bit to board out a little bit So it went in there nice and easy. These are flange bolts zinc and flange nuts as well and I have four more for each of the corners one two three. Oh you get it and It ran out of I don't have four Flange nuts, but I was able to get two nylon nuts that should do the trick Now one thing to keep in Consideration guys is that yellow knob right here is the fill You don't want it too close to anything else There are different types of fills but pretty much they need a foot or two distance That's about 16 inches of space You know, hopefully that works if not, I'll just have to modify something, but I believe that should work also PSA says not to Drill or weld to the frame flange There's a really good chance. This is the frame flange. Oh, well, all right Kyle just came over here with his Maverick sunglasses on we've got a top gun over here. He's like hey, I want to show you a trick by the way Guys, I'm all for I'm all for tips. If you guys have suggestions, please leave them in the comments. I do love suggestions Now he said now what was your technique again? So when you drill steel or titanium you want to use the method of Heavy feed slow speed. Okay, so that way you don't burn out the drill bit. Yeah, it'll actually cut better Awesome, so but it can be kind of difficult. So someone's really overhead. That's what it's like super hard Yeah, it is hard. Okay, so put this on one and shove it in there basically Here you want these? Sure You only just learned about the suburban what it has settings for two people for the seats amazing in our Corolla We always have to adjust it every time and now we can just hit a button. It's so awesome. Awesome Holy moly that is very slow That is much slower than I was going So it's gonna take a while. Yeah But if you can get like in a position Yep, and I'm guessing you drilled a lot of steel in the Air Force. Yes. Oh, yeah, I see those big chunks coming out now Probably not as hot either, huh? Whoa, yeah, look at that. So see how much further I got. Yeah, you sure did. Yeah Like more than twice as far. Okay, I'll try that and way less time But yeah, it's definitely it takes a lot more energy and effort that will grease but You can drill a lot better And it prevents the drill bit from actually burning out. So yep, if you have to drill multiple holes I do four. Yeah. I've already done four. It can be a pain if you start to have a dole drill bit Oh, yes. Yes, just a pro tip when you work with metal I mean badge know about drill dole drill bits very yeah, so very well like you can see all these Huge shavings that I got to come off So it's because it's actually making a cut and it just keeps cutting versus you're just like kind of yeah Like like one of his apple peelers. Yeah instead of like work hardening the metal So you go really fast it'll heat it up and you can you're kneeling the metal to make it actually hotter and stronger So, huh interesting. Yeah, good enough. Thanks for the tip man. I appreciate that And we're gonna get these in in no time. Kyle. Thanks for the assist, bro All right, so we got the nuts and bolts on here who do with the fender nuts You don't really need to as long as it's tight all the way You don't need something on the top side on the bolt You can just screw in with the impact from the nuts. So you learn something new every single day Only do that with an impact driver though if you just have a regular one it wouldn't work. Yeah, you might you might be right Now well, I was under the bus for a couple hours for eight bolts Miles you guys remember miles miles been in here with this grout I've never seen anybody grout before That is pretty interesting So what's the technique here Miles? Spread it spread it spread it like butter spread it Like send it send it. Yeah, huh? Full set Interesting. Yeah, full send you just wipe it off with the sponge Looks like this nice looks good man So we was a gray grout and do you need a light? No Maybe later. Yeah, cool. Well, it's looking pretty awesome here Miles with the tiles. Good job, dude All right, today we are having a little meetup is also snowing right now. It's a little on the cold side. So Miles is gonna work on that. I'm gonna clean up This is a progress so far we I did get one incorrect Nut in bolt. So actually two and then we stripped one. So I have to pick up a couple more of those but if anybody shows up for the well We've got a couple people inside already, but we may check in a little bit and just update you on the little meetup over here It reads place. So everybody we are just hanging out. This is a meetup. This is a crew. Where's all my woo girls? Oh So, yeah, we had Zach come all the way from Salt Lake City. So thank you for coming out man.

Oh gotcha. That's right. Cool. So anyways, this is what our meetup looks like guys Yeah, yeah totally so thank every one of you for showing up we all love it when you know people come to meet ups and come and meet us So it's much appreciated sweet.
