Custom Angled Entry Stairs! Our Skoolie Bus Build Series

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

#diy #welding #skoolieconversion

The stairs on our bus used to be 3 feet wide and went straight in towards the drivers station. We wanted to have a bench seat for the driver's seat, so I modified the steps by cutting them down to 2 feet wide, and angled them towards the back of the bus. That allowed me to add storage beside the stairs for shoes, snow chains, and roadside emergency equipment.

We are a husband and wife team that loves to take on hard projects. We finished our bus project after 2 years of hard work and are now enjoying life on the road. We plan to travel for a year or two more while we prepare to homestead in northern Idaho. Come join us as we document our journey. Our goal is to inspire you and your fellow viewers to go out and life life the Hard Way.
