Converting Our 40ft Shipping Container to Expand Our Workshop!

[@delandbrooks3291]

Get two more containers and set them in a U. Then roof the whole thing plus a overhang to shelter the saw, pour a floor and run power. 40X40 shop with secure storage and you get your garage back. Or at least plan for that. Prayers for your Dad.

Ladder movement take 20. Nailed it!😁😁. Don’t have a ladder just use the tree. Love it! Can’t wait to see the final product. Hope your dad’s surgery goes well!

[@TimeAfterTym]

You restore my faith in young people. Great videos and good luck in all your endeavors.

[@TomMcgee]

Great idea for the door! It looks good and I'm sure it will last a long time.

[@alanb285]

Wish your dad the best 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@jasonculinarycoppadgett]

Always enjoy watching the projects and progress, keep up the good work

[@erwinaddison2030]

Use the the steel piece you cut out for the door opening as a porch roof over the door😄

[@portugeeprepper6821]

Looks good! Look forward to seeing this project play out

[@jefftrout2743]

I love the ingenuity to problem solve the insulation and the reuse of the door. Inspiring!

[@louisnemick1939]

I will pray for your Dad. I am so thankful for you guys.

[@waderue]

you know for being a woodworker and making things out of wood you own a lot metal working tools interesting

[@makethepart]

Excited to see how this turns out, great work so far!

Hope your dad fares well. Safe travels

“Trippin’ Breakers” sounds like a good name for a rock band. Thanks for the video. This is the first time you all came up in my feed. 👍

[@Woodbrew]

🤣 Could be! And welcome!!

I love your attitude on this project "It's not pretty or good but it's good enough"

It is awesome seeing you guys working together! Thoughts and prayers for your dad and family.

Love watching this. I want a container for our "homestead" storage but I don't have the skills to customize it to make it work like y'all do.

[@jonathanperry1480]

Love your channel, been watching for years. Also, ifix it is a great resource.

[@handyjim]

great project looking forward to next video

Prayers for your father! Keep building you two are inspirational to the next generation!

I’m all about fixing things instead of buying new. I’ll have to check out ifixit

Great door in the container. Now you have easy in and out. Sending lots of prayers for your dad.

I like the door, thanks

This door is a wonderful idea as well as practical. Hope everything does well for your father.

[@1126pete]

looking good, love your videos .

[@mikeymad]

The ifixit opener had so much pep.. I was not ready for it.. :) -- I really like the idea of the side door in the new shop, and I like the attitude of good enough.. -- Healing thoughts to Dad. - Cheers

[@andrewpinson1268]

Interested to see how this turns out. I would like to get me a container more for overflow shop storage than an actual shop. I would still put some type of walls inside provided you plan to hand something up. Maybe just one side.

[@johnthompsonii8335]

Prayers for your father. Keep up the hard work and great videos.

[@jimrosson6702]

Great job the door looks great.sending prayers to your dad and family 🙏🏻🙏🏻 that his surgery goes smoothly

[@ebuford]

Prayers for your Dad!

[@cgr6513]

I live up North and don't know if things are done differently where you are...but we would put a substantial bead of caulk down before setting the door in the opening. Hopefully you don't need it where you are. In any case I'm impressed with both of you and the amount of work you put in. Keep up the good jobs and videos! Thanks! Hope your Dad is well, too.

[@elwinkershaw]

Definitely a good idea. Would be required by building code here.

[@Woodbrew]

Guys it’s a shed it’s not a house. Regardless we put caulk where the door meets the floor because it overhangs and we could do it after setting it in place.

[@richardjones8236]

I'm really looking forward to watching you fit out your container. You said the door wasn't pretty. I think it's very pretty! Pretty strait. Pretty level. Pretty square. And that's pretty much all you need. Just a thought on insulation. I used the reflective bubble wrap along with normal insulation. The reflective quality really does work and reduces the radiant heat significantly. If you work it into your insulation scheme I don't think you'll be disappointed. This summer I'm going to build 8ft trellises on the sunny side of my shop and container about 2ft away from the wall. With a climbing vine it will add to the aesthetics and reduce the direct sunlight. My prayers for your Dad.

[@Ckeeling1117]

keep up the hard work around the house and prayers on your father

[@mrbb1731]

Love it. Wanted to do a shipping container deck but my township won't allow it Can't wait tp see next video.

[@SimplySellers202]

I was wondering how you were going to attach the wood frame to the container and that appeared to be the best way possible and bonus points for reusing material.

[@rogerkiser5890]

Praying for your Dad! Awesome work again! It’s really fun to watch you Dylan as a perfectionist accepting non perfection in ruff framing!😅. Travel safe young man and we look forward to your return and the next video. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Awesome!

[@thomaskaiser7984]

I agree working on a project like this, and not having to keep a 32nd of an inch is a lot of fun, but you keep having to pull yourself back from trying to do so.

[@jeffruffing2316]

Hope your dad is ok. Prayers are given. Thanks for explaining the tree in the middle of the doorway. Now I know why you didn’t remove it prior to install of the door. Keep the videos coming. They are excellent!

[@markduggan3451]

I hope your Dad will be OK. The door looks good.

[@johnwarren1]

Good idea to put a door in and to use up some stuff that's just sitting around.

[@natemorales5731]

Awesome work....as long as it's functional it's good....hope everything is good with ur dad.

This will look awesome with board and batten, plus this cool foot door! 😃👍

I enjoy watching both of you and your adventures in (now) homesteading.

[@Woodbrew]

[@scottmorris4914]

Looks good. Suggestion. Add a small roof over the door, helps protect it from the weather, even if a shed type of roof. I was going to say, with finishing the exterior, now you don’t have to paint it.

[@Woodbrew]

We are building a roof and lean to over the whole thing!

[@derekpiehl85]

Hope your dad has a safe and successful surgery. Happy to have fix it feb back. So great that u could reuse the old door and not just throw it away. Sending prayers your way 🙏

The Workshop Container is fantastic. Don’t be so critical of your work. It’s an alternate entrance for safety and peace of mind.

[@andrewpinson1268]

Buy some assorted larger ladders and one to get on top of container also. I saw a money tree somewhere on your property.

[@ConquerorT117]

Siding does look better than a shipping container. I am curious about the width, and lack thereof. Seems like it would be on the narrow side for a shop, long enough to make up for it maybe?

[@charlessmittenaar2317]

Looks like an interesting project, hope it all goes well!!! Best wishes for your dad.

[@beeleywood7796]

You said that the tree is a weed, we don't have weeds like that in the UK. Does it make for good timber? Wishing your dad a speedy recovery.

[@MarkTEwing]

I am super excited about this project. This is gonna be fun to follow!

[@Woodbrew]

Us too!!

[@clydedecker765]

Big hint - figure out the roof first! Redo that and get the covering for the new siding too... Make some standoffs of heavy metal to hold the roof to the container and keep the roof level and attached to the container. Check out Life Uncontained for his method...

[@RevIlikai]

Every shipping container needs a good door with a side light panel... prayers for your Dad

I wonder if putting a roll up type garage door on one end would be feasible… I assume not because the space it would take on the inside

[@shayd1984triton]

Seeing you with the welding machine is interesting. I've got this interview with this local Ironworkers union coming up. I'm sure there's more regulations building skyscrapers and bridges than private projects. Where did you get your training?

[@jckddsn]

I may have missed it somewhere, is the container staying in place or will it be moved further down the property later? I know plans aren't never set in place until you do them, even if then 😂.

[@wrlively]

I love watching your videos! 😁

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you thank you! ❤️❤️

Question why come you just did not put the wood frame right behind the metal and screw the wood to the metal. It works

[@SpencerWilliams-h1s]

I just saw another KZbinr who said they didn’t weld all the way around the windows and doors and that was a mistake because it leaks even with the caulking.
