Just some thoughts: You can't properly scrub brick walls in a shower, even if it is just facade brick. You can't use wood to hold things under a bus. It will rot out quickly, getting wet if you drive in the rain or snow, and nails will jar loose as you drive. You can't put the air conditioner under the bus because it will not get enough ventilation, and it will be filthy with road dirt and fumes, and then blow that into the bus. You need another seat with a seat belt for a passenger. It's not safe to be walking around in the bus making food while the bus is moving. Blue is hot too, especially a deep blue. Light colours keep the bus cool. Your generator box isn't ventilated.
The loft is kinda silly because just makes the bed feel claustrophobic
I was thinking the same thing with the AC. All that dust, dirt, etc from under the bus is gonna be in your lungs.
Who tf asked you
While I agree with you guys the ac shouldn't be under the bus, especially not held with wood, the outside unit is not pumping air into the bus, it's just the compressor and condenser, the air handling unit is the inside part.
I would have built a box opposite of the generator to the the AC unit in. Seeing that it is only the condenser, it will not be pumping air into the bus. It is just pushing the Freon to the inside unit (evaporator) to cool the air. All in all great job on this. The little things everyone has pointed out is easily fixed.
As a cabinet installer, I think the vibration from driving over potholes will f*ck up your wood frame and sheetrock
And the wood frames under the bus to hold the water tanks and AC unit will not stand the test of time.
As i saw the floor i was thinking oh no, what if spill something? Then the water already was coming through the roof. You should be able to remove spilled milk for example. If not, you will get butyric acid, a reason to burn the vehicle. To remove the desaster you have to open the floor. For roaches and mice as well. Everything heavy could kill you in a car accident.
@@stefanmargraf7878 Yea they clearly built this for the looks. Not at all as actually useful mini home. This seems to be case with most youtube channels making these. Hasty job for the looks that would not last 1 month of active usage.
you must be really proud of yourself to be a cabinet installer. Get a real job dude
@@dkdebestthe cabinet installer charged us 150k for the custom cabinets in our custom home. His job is real hater
Awesome build!! The only thing that's definitely going to be a huge issue in the not too distant future is the wood brackets used under the bus for the water tanks and the AC compressor. Those definitely need to be made out of galvanized steel or even better aluminum. I'd be interested to see how they held up over the last 8 months since this video premiered.
Awesome!!!!!
I thought the same. However, I would suggest bed rails to keep it cheap.
shouldnt install it under the bus..i think using the back where they hold their cycles would be a better solution..i would never hung anything under the bus
Ya I cringed when I saw the making the brackets for them out of wood
Just a recommendation, as a Master HVAC Owner, I would reconsider where you put that condenser. Under the bus will not allow it to pass the air through the coil thus causing a problem with your airflow through the evaporator. Meaning, the temp will not keep up in the heat. It will freeze over etc.. plus being in the dirt, salt, dust it’s just going to wreck havoc on that system. Put it on the back of the bus.
And if they want to support a really heavy stuff. Why don't use something durable like Idk metal.
@@fakhrurrazi2936 or even aluminum, which is lighter and won't rust. Same with the Gen box. They should make it out of welded aluminum and put some vents for intake and exhaust.
thats what i was thinking. either on the back or a unit thatll fit nicely on top, but you could run into height problems
Who Cares?😮🤔

This book is a comprehensive guide for anyone who wants to create various types of garden buildings. The book provides clear and detailed instructions with numerous photos. kzhead.infoUgkxBE-xSmFU7PIaMFUmmhnFxE035s5svtxeAs a novice, I appreciated the book's step-by-step approach to the basics of building. The book also appeals to the more advanced DIY enthusiast with projects ranging from simple to complex. The book is up to date with the latest trends, such as solar panels, green roofs, and sweet chestnut shakes. The book has inspired me to pursue more projects in the future.
I think the link is broken. What was the name of the book?
Absolutely great familyproject. Allthou, Im a bit conserned about the electrics and plumming. - First of all, the water tanks are definetly not supposed to mixed with wood. They are way too heavy for that loose of bracketing. The absolute same thing, for any type waterheating elements + -pumps. They need to welded in. - Secondly, that rearbox for the generator its an absolute no go without a proper ventilation, electric insulation, fireproofing and safety circuit breakers. - Third, the original hydraulic opening for the doors and the buss doors, as combo, are actually surprisingly quite sturdy and burglar resistant. - Four: YOU NEVER EVER INSTALL AN AC ANYWHERE NEAR THE MOTORS EXHAUST SYSTEM, DUER TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING!!!

That AC condenser unit will not be blowing any air to the inside of the bus goddamnit.
Reason your bus only goes 55 is because the rear axle gear ratio is on the low side. Look into a higher Gear ratio for the rear axle if you wanna get it to go faster. I recommend a 4.10 but i'd go with a high gear ratio like a 3.42 gear ratio in the back I'm guessing it's a 6.6L Diesel with a Allison AT545 automatic. Honestly i'm leaning towards a 3.42 gear ratio in a bus that smalll. Get that thing moving better. Those old Ford Bus Chassis were one of the best out there. That is a Carpenter bus body if you guys were curious. Nice build by the way.

Great job! Amazing the co-ordination between you guys, how you think thru stuff and solve problems, work hard and work fast. It is a shame that somebody else got this bus.
wow, what great work! we appreciate 1. sharing each step of the way 2. *no foul language, 3. your fantastic attitudes, energy, smiles, and finally 4. the fun you all seemed to have and sharing even your mistakes and fixes. great work, guys!
Definitely would have used metal brackets or some type of metal bracing along the bottom for the tanks and everything I can't imagine that wood is going to hold up in bad weather over time but all in all it's still a very awesome looking project and you guys did a great job.
Yeah I would have wanted at least the bottom parts to be welded into the frame
No they did not do a great job. It's all done wrong and it sucks with lots of mistakes.
Exactly
I spent my whole childhood working on RVs. My family had a Dealership and we rented. So we had a shop to repair everything. I’m just saying this so you understand I’m not a KZhead troll. The tanks on the bottom of the bus will not last. Depending on where you live and drive. I would say 2years tops and it will start falling apart. The danger being you don’t know when the wood is going to give. My point is it’s a danger to others if your on the highway and a full black tank comes flying out. This is just what I saw in the first few minutes.
This is pretty much the thing that I would get completely redone... its wood its not supported that well and I'd also be worried about hitting things underneath with all those low add ons.
It's a good build, you guys transformed that old bus into somethingt nice. But my only concern is that framing under for the tanks, should have opted for aluminum or steal, cause the vibration and humps can easily lossen up that wood specially when carrying heavy load. And it will have lesser blueprint giving you more space for other things
Interesting
And treated wood because it’s exposed to the weather year round
Beautiful job, great work! I have a couple questions. Why didn't you opt to put the ac on top? And with drywall and tile and bricks how will long term they keep not crack? Not being critical just wonder how well those parts hold up?
I don’t care what kind of wood you put under the bus. It won’t last.
@@finaltouchautodetailingllc I hope the tile was composite/plastic. I lay tile and if it's ceramic, it will crack due to vibration and expansion/contraction from weather changes, especially if you didn't put in expansion joints and gaps where it meets walls/under cabinets.
Awesome build ! I'm no expert, but I do have some recommendations : 1 - a roof rack 2 - a solar panel 3 - roof fan for proper ventilation and keeping the bus cool.
Wonderful job Ya'll did. Congratulations you have a nice rec vehicle to travel with, since you did it yourselves, it makes you appreciate everything more❣️
Part of the reason why your AC wasn't able to keep up was because of where you installed the outdoor unit. It needs to have enough room to remove heat from the system. Because it is under the bus while it is running all of the heat is trapped under the bus, and recirculating back through the condenser coil. The head pressures are probably pretty high and it would explain why it wasn't doing a good job of cooling the bus. I do AC for a living.
just a heads up. the AC needs not to be full of mud, dust, salt, sand, etc. even on the back most people cover them when not in use to protect the fins. it can not work effectively and depending on how dirty it gets, it will eventually just stop working. you might want to put it on the back like the generator
not to mention deep speed bumps
Look at ANY motorhome/RV/trailer on the road you will see that the AC unit is mounted on the roof. Much safer place for it to be.
@@ironbear76 this type of unit is not like those typical ones and would not do well on the roof either. It needs to be on the back or covered and not on while driving. It can't handle the high speed air it will damage the coils etc. Needs to be behind protected from the wind etc
I was thinking that under the bus was not a good idea.
No doubt. The way they zoned it, Ik the master br hot as a mf
I loved watching you guys build this out! Wow! So so creative and not too pricey. You guys have a great attention to detail and work hard. Very well done!!!
All I can say is, WOW 🤩!! The inside of the bus 🚌 is nothing short of awesome 👏! Good job, Guys.
I bet everyone wishes they had a brother like Colby...
I’m actually a subscriber Infernox
Colby is the man!
I really wish that I had a brother with more perserverence like Colby lol
For sure
I was thinking that too. Regardless of construction skills. I have 3 sisters and no brothers. Love thy brothers people!
Cool idea. Definitely a few things I would be concerned about though. First, that was a lot of added weight with all the wood, stone, drywall. Ect. You really should try to keep it light. The wood supports beneath the bus that will most likely rot from exposure. The AC unit beneath the bus being exposed to splashing, mud, dust off of the road. I probably would not have put carpet beneath the water pump and HWT and the pex piping... carpet and humidity from dripping or sweating pipes don't mix well. The generator on the back in the enclosed box, it should have room to breath so it doesn't over heat and a safe way to exhaust the fumes away from the bus. There's a reason they say to keep generators 20 feet away from where you are staying in.
Would have been easier to just say "the entire build is garbage" lol
@@HankGrill Well it's not like they said the tile is going to start cracking once the bus starts bouncing and twisting .
So ideally speaking, where would the best place for a generator be on a school bus conversion?
It’s like they never bothered to do a stitch of research. If they sold this to someone I hope to god no one got sick from mold.
YES!! Thank you for commenting this, i was thinking all the same things you mentioned. Ive been researching builds like this for a long time, they made a lot of decisions they didnt research beforehand.
WOW Guys!!! That’s incredible!! Seriously. I love how a project can bring a family together! The bus! Gotta be one of the best looking inside and out!!! Looks like you walk into a high end home… except for the space of course. You all have done a fantastic job! Enjoy as much camping or living in it full time. As much as you can!! Wow! Just stunning!
Looks good, although I'd be worried that the wood underneath will rot very quickly, even if it was PT lumber, road wear would break it down.
@@scrapgamingx1942 not a super high quality build if it will rot quickly though
Agreed. We framed our grey tank in with angle iron. Would not use wood on the outside of the bus.
Wow so many things done wrong. Lol
Wood here is a terrible, terrible choice. This bus ll be gone after about a year. Metal all the way - sturdier, flexible, lighter, no so much service-intensive as wood.
That was my same exact thoughts 🤔… the wood will rot
I definitely would have welded up frames for the tanks that had a roller tray for easy maintenance & repairs down the line
I don't think they plan on keeping too long. but maybe the next owner will re-frame it. it's a good idea nonetheless. I've seen other builds do it in metal 😉👍👌
bus needs more windows tbh
Don’t read this comment

This is not a build that will last without big problems.

The bus looks really great now. I'm just wondering how much weight you added to the bus (the bricks, holding tanks, generator, plus all the stuff you need daily). The flooring looks really well done, but won't the tiles come loose or crack as the bus goes down the road?
Something may soon be amiss, but it was all there for the moment!
dude it's a youtuber making a youtube video for money it's his job now. 10M view is something like 30k to 50k minimum to around 80k to 100k. Of course his bus wont drive correctly on roads but that's not why he built it.
I think the bricks are plastic
he built this bus for content not for actual use. the moment i saw how the driver seat and cockpit were set up i knew this thing wouldn't drive anymore than what they did for the video. he probably sold this for parts, sold as whole to some idiot, or just abandoned it somewhere

ive watched just a few of your vids (ran onto you recently). the first one was where you had made a trailer/camper to pull behind bike....it went down a ditch into stream.

Wishing you the absolute best in all of yoru endeavors. btw, with your attitude/discipline/drive you will be a major success in life...whatever you choose to do.
Great effort I enjoy watching Good things you do: 1- high efforts and hard work 2- good isolation for sound, water and heat. 3- very high effort for two persons only 4- adding all the requirements for traveling and be like at home 5- good colors and interior design Here are some advices 1- Do not use wood to carry things under the bus. Unsafe 2- You should calculate the bus vibration and torsion 3- Better to plan everything and use any 3D software to design with dimensions 4- Better to plan for safety mechanism for passengers 5- plan to mix between generator and solar power 6- add more window because it looks like - sorry - a closed grave 7- AC location not good for distributing the air 8- doors must be not from wood 9- generator should have air cooling or at least open and better to put it down the vehicle or on the up the ceiling
I feel like they're going to have a massive mold problem with the windows and metal touching the insulation?
true
thank you for giving me hope that there exists smart people who think
As a mechanic, the wood underneath made me cringe. I give it about a year and everything under that bus is gonna end up on the highway. Wood vs moisture and vibration, wood looses every time.
I think using metal brackets for the tanks would be a better option.
Yeah, those tanks were not done well at all. Should have treated the wood too. But would be better framed in steel and painted. That exterior wood will rot in less than a year.
Fr
I wondered if I was the only one who thought that as well.
Not even brackets are necessary. Most people use metal straps. That wood is going to rot really fast because it's not even treated wood.
I thought all that wood at the bottom didn't seem a good idea.
That was awesome. I love it blue way more than black. Great home, and wicked job!
I just subscribed :)
nah
Awesome build. Looks fantastic!!! The only think I would have done different would be, I would have added a skylight that opens.

Incredible work 👏 congratulations!
Amazing what you guys did to the bus 🚃 I love the decoration.so amazing. You guys are very creative.❤❤👏👍😘
First off: very hard work! Cool that you found a "residence" type door at Goodwill. But it's still just wood and a LOT of glass. I'd feel more secure with a steel door that has a security glass window. What does the manufacturer of the A/C unit say about mounting the condenser unit under the bus where the air exchange is limited? Usually condenser units need to "breathe" and putting it under the bus limits that. Wouldn't it have been better to mount it at the back of the bus? You've got the generator back their anyway.
The bus turned out so great! It's incredible you managed to also fit a full bathroom in a short bus!

Nice work! Two objections: a)this blue is also a bit dark. Ιf blue is your thing, baby blue would be better...or you can always paint just the top silver for maximum reflection. b) the brick layer in the shower is a VERY BAD IDEA. Being dark and not able to clean properly (as it is porous and has deep grout lines) will soon become a health hazard due to mold. There is a reason why we chose light colors and smooth surfaces for bathrooms and kitchens : they should clean easily and thoroughly. You might also do a check-up in the rear suspension of the bus. Looks a bit low and bouncy. Like it needs a set of stiffer springs and new dampers.
To rectify the potential for mold in the bathroom, they could coat the entire wall with several coats of clear sealant.

@@Reiley-uo6vw they work, but obviously not as good as not having windows
@@justaguywithapowerpole As an introvert... fuck windows.
Hey yall! Bus looks great, just wanted to give some critique on some possible areas where issues may arise. For the storage tanks and HVAC condenser mounted underneath, you might need to mount shielding to prevent road debris from getting in. Another area you guys might want to look at is your mounting for this area as well. With ride vibration and etc, lumber might not be the best material to use for mounting these critical pieces of hardware. If possible, i would try and find a fabrication shop and get some steel racks fab'd and welded in. Great job overall!
and I also wonder how bricks and floor tiles will react to vibrations and bumps. The overall result is beautiful, but I don't know how it will stand the test of the road.
That should have been done with metal instead of wood. That won't last very long. Especially if the tanks are full.
@@cameliajordana1513Exactly! And the A/C mounted next to the unrestored 1991 exhaust system on a vehicle with no ventilation isn’t a biggie either! “Heh” carbon monoxide ain’t shit!
Very very beautiful job. I like the blue and the artwork on the roof! One thing I do not care for at all is the brick and especially in the shower you gotta question the functionality as it has so many crevasses that can hold moisture and potentially promote mold. I think you could have really chosen a beautiful and classy tile for the kitchen instead of the brick, but hey it’s not the worst. Overall a super beautiful job. I liked the loft rail too and the stove hood.
No vapor barrier between the metal, fiberglass insulation, and wood... under bus frames made of wood... AC condenser under the bus... wood and sheetrock interior walls... No ventilation on the generator... Coffin bedroom... Assuming you live in FL that thing is going to tear itself apart from warping and be loaded with mold in a few years...
Very nice build. Like others have said though using wood framing for your tanks and condenser is not the best choice. The condenser and tanks are very susceptible to damage from road debris which isnt good. At the very least I would completely enclose the tanks and move the condenser to the back of the bus for better protection and air exhange.
Everyone here has to agree this vehicle would not pass inspection. The wood/screwed frames for filled tanks and air conditioner under the bus become projectiles when components fail, possibly killing anyone driving behind this vehicle. Since it’s a build out, an insurance company would require an inspection. This is very dangerous, even if top speed is 50 mph.
seriously...this doesnt seem safe at ALL
@@bcan86 do better then
@@vyperbladez5101 there's plenty of others who have retrofitted buses without such dangerous modifications. I don't need to do it myself to know that. (Nevermind being a single mom of special needs kids, who has the time?) good luck in other areas. I enjoy the videos just not the danger.

i enjoy watching really beautiful camping bus good work
Nice job, but I think the generator is going to overheat in that metal box. Paint the roof white and you can paint the rest of it the color you want and it will stay much cooler.
I do overall like this but there are several things I would change. 1. Wall material. The only reason wood, metal, plastic, fiberglass, etc. is used is due to its flexibility compared to regular drywall that cracks. 2. Layout of parts. I would move the A/C to the back so that way it isn’t taking heat from underneath the bus (part of the reason the bus interior gets hot 3. Overall layout changes. I would want to utilize that one door that was used as a window as the main door. You can make it at least somewhat secure while looking unmodified instead of taking the old front door and using something besides the original door (I’m not saying I wouldn’t modify the front door, I would just make it bolted shut or a different door style). Also just adding in a foldable twin size bed and making the bathroom a wet bath to save tons of space. 4. Some aspects about the master bedroom area. The fact that there are panels drilled into place would be inconvenient if something got stuck, lost, unreachable, etc. Also, I would not use the loft for sleeping, but for storage. Hopefully this comment gets seen, and this bus is really impressive needless. These are just my thoughts on the project that could be improved.
Great advice...
Also seems like theres is way too little windows and or ventilation if theres 4 ppl in the back. The master bed room looks like a claustrophobic death trap. Cool project none the less.
When you use an airless sprayer like that, you need to backroll (i.e. use a paint roller) to even out the paint.

exept the fact that he did half the things wrong: he used wood to hold things under a bus and it will rot away very quickly, he put the air conditioner under the bus and it will not get enough ventilation, and it will be filthy with road dirt and fumes, and then blow that into the bus, also there's no passenger seat, deep blue will also be hot and his generator box isn't ventilated so it will overheat which is dangerous as hell
It's thanks not thaks not to be mean just correcting
This guy is literally roasting me rn
I’m proud of you for fighting through that that rough mental state. I can tell you first hand that it is a very difficult fight but once you get through it you feel great. Keep fighting man.
Foam is such a great filler… even on wood repairs…. Then all purpose bondo,(sands easier). Dope bus!
Wise to re roof. Looks amazing 👏 excellent finish 😊
This is so cool! There's just one thing... It looks like a battle bus
😂
Yeh it does but a modern one😂
That's what I said when I saw the thumbnail
My thoughts exactly
Broooooooo
Great job. A few concerns/comments though. The door looks very unsafe. I’d probably try to get a metal door. The AC under the bus seems to be sitting extremely low. I hope it survives the potential hits. I’d definitely use sliding doors inside the bus. And finally, the seat seems to be still tight. I hope you enjoy your trip and everything goes well.
the points you brought up are exactly what I thought as well. I would have kept the original doors. Also if there is a flood that AC is not good under the bus. But great job for a first try, they will make improvements as time goes by.
Forgot the lsck of ventilation to the generstor unit. They have a few creative upgrades to do.
I think learning to weld would be extremely helpful... that's a lot of lumber under that bus!
Also, the bus has no ventilation, save for the driver's window, the door, and the fan in the bathroom. Even if the AC can keep up in its location (it won't), the air will still feel stuffy. Stale. Humid. Not to mention that roof is going to condensate like crazy. Also, since Alan mentioned welding: a lot of their mounting (personal) issues, could be solved with a roof rack - even if just a small one at the back of the bus. The AC and generator could share that space, easily.
@@cyberfloater9293 great point. I have never tried building a car to actually put on the road here myself but I know there are strict regulations in Europe
First time here and I loved what you guys did. Great job guys and a great time at the beach.
You are so underrated. Do so much work and don’t get as much likes or subs that I think you most definitely deserve. Keep up the good work that you spend so much time on just to entertain us!
This is so inspiring and amazing. We hope to see more like this.
Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest.
@@Florencecoxx I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more.
@@izagdlife That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
@@Florencecoxx You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe?
Wow I can't believe you guys are discussing about Gary Mason Brooks , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that he’s very good in trading..Highly recommended.
There is a reason drywall is not used in campers, think about the vibrations of driving down the road and then think about what happens to your drywall when you leave it in an unheated camper over the winter....
It looks nice. I was going to mention the black absorbing heat but you already found that out further into the video. Although it did look nice black. Military green would have been another awesome color but with heat being an issue its just not ideal in the long run. I would have left it white but the blue looks ok. The issue with the AC unit being at the bottom of the bus will take in a lot of dust and dirt from the road especially if your driving down a dusty dirt road. Cool video I enjoyed watching it.
I don't understand how it didn't occur to anyone that painting black is a bad idea
My only serious complaint is the upper sleeping area, there's only about a foot of space between the floor and the ceiling, and once you put a mattress up there it will have almost zero headroom to even try to sit up. I personally would have just sacrificed the little bit of storage space underneath the bottom bed, carpeted the floor and put a mattress down, that way the top bed could have been lowered down a foot or so.
Guys! I’ve never watched your channel before, but I love this!!! What a different looking bus build. I love that you did it more like a house on the inside! Really nice. Kudos to all of you for a stellar job. Enjoy!
thank you so much! we are super happy u liked it!
That didn’t like it, they love it.
They*
Can i buy it for around 1M Dollars 💰💵
@@user-wc9uz7wu3o Would you have any money leftover to replace the lumber box holding that tank on the undercarriage? 😂
Wowzers! Way to go guys! That was so fun to see!
Also wood framing on the underside of the bus will eventually give out do to moisture and rain
Thank you for showing both the INS and the OUTS during this process. This was very informative.
You guys did an awesome job on this bus. Blue is my favorite color also and with that black door, it turned out great. The inside is so beautiful and clean looking and I love the modern look in it. ❤
Who is there in 2024 😅

2025 for me :)

That’s awesome! You did such a great job. We were converting a van but unfortunately it caught on fire last week 😢 the video is on our channel. We are not giving up hope on our travel dream. ❤
Me and my family have rented many RVs in the past and its been a pain because something always breaks. Building your own really seems like a great alternative (if you have the time). Great job, it looks fantastic.
1 medium sized bump and the tiles, wall bricks...anything with concrete or plaster will crack, weaken and come apart.
Time and money.
The best part to me is that 2 sons and their father built this amazing camper bus and you guys will always have that connection. Very awesome enjoy. Great job.
It's a display project (all these woods won't), but still Great Job!
Bro that master bedroom 😳 🙌🔥
Wood here is a terrible, terrible choice. This bus ll be gone after about an year. Metal all the way - sturdier, more flexible, lighter, not so much service-intensive as wood. And even if it get damaged, easier to repair. Still love your energy and dedication, Chay!
Why do people always use heavy timber on a bus where keeping it light should be important. Aluminum and steel should be the choice.
That was beautiful how you brought the life back into the bus. You guys worked really hard 🚌
Awesome to hear my friend the burke family had school bus into a sleeping place too
This made me laugh a ton. Great build, but definitely the definition of "measure once, cut twice". lol.
Truly spectacular, bravo! I love the determination and grind, backs were against the wall, deadline, and y'all went all in. This was easily the best RV project I've seen because it not only encapsulated the creativity and the fun, but also the tenacity, effort, preservation, teamwork, and most importantly, the love of family
