Doulton 10" Super Sterasyl Ceramic Filter is what is in my handmade rig.
Something to consider is the ceramic part can be scrubbed with a scotch brite pad when they slow down.
Spare filter I have is a 7" for the 2.5gal doulton kit I have. So will have to order somemore 10".
Survey says I have all the goodies to make another filter system including another aquarium stand.
Because first test I added some sand & potting soil to the rain water to give the filter a good test.
I have a trauma kit organized in a fishing tackle box kept in my vehicle.
As Arklatex can attest, hesitant to make his own. But once completed was quite easy to do.
You should be able to set up second use water such as from showers, dishes, & laundry for watering plants, trees, etc.
Whether you use 7, 10, or 11" filters will make a difference in time to do a bucket. Keep in mind that as the filters are used the time will only get greater to do a bucket of water.

That bottom lid will eventually crack & break. Any type metal like from an old grill will help support the weight og the upper bucket when full of water.
Chevy Stepvan is also an option but GM doesn't have a good track record of late in backing up their products.
One nice thing about any length box truck or bus is you are starting with a blank slate so you can set it up to your own needs. Maybe something like half of it as living space & half for supplies. I...

I think most you would find mechanically sound. Not good to have a bus of kids broken down along the road so are mantained fairly well. Best suggestion I can make is to check online for the nearest...
Not sure where you got that information. I found atleast three companies in washington state that sale used buses that include school buses & prices start at about $5,500.
On the other hand, if you want to play road warrior then look for military surplus vehicles.
Most people won't have the need for a full length 72 passenger school bus but there are several shorter versions down to the mini or half bus. By comparison , the smaller school buses are the same...

A problem with a full size bus is the same as with a full size class A motorhome. When you make a tight turn the edge of the rear bumper swings out two feet wider then the rear tires. There are...
One thing is deciding if you will tow a vehicle behind the box truck or bus. That is going to add atleast 20ft behind you. With a manual transmission you can put a tow bar on the front. A front wheel...
