metal and insulation on the shipping container and shop

[@280zone]

Looks great! One trick on that metal siding is to predrill the holes with the panels stacked together. That way you don't have to worry about the screws staying level.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

That's a good idea thanks

[@Grandpadew]

wow installing that metal sure made a difference....the results you are achieving by not being a carpenter are fantastic!!!

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you so much

Great job at yard sale. Besides the screws being a good deal that mixer, I got same one from Amazon for 12 dollars. Used it to mix tea for my garden using worm castings and fertilizer. Good score.

@@Robinson-Homestead you may not want to because the boards may be sprayed with chemicals. see my comment here.

How did you install the wood studs on the exterior of the house?

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I just used long self-tapping screws.

[@mohammedazeem7952]

Nice work

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you

[@lesmitchell542]

great job kev looking good

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you Les.

[@guyanaspice6730]

looks great ! thought i might add this on shipping containers. when buying a used container, one should make sure the ground boards were not sprayed with chemicals to prevent rotting and such. could be dangerous breathing for long periods. for storage, i Assume it shouldn't be a problem. for those who make homes with shipping containers, then they may want to remove these boards.

[@marciacousins3959]

I couldn’t bare the cutting squeaking foam😂😂😂

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the comment and watching.

[@texdog2772]

I insulated all the walls in my 14' cargo trailer cutting all the insulation with a hand saw. When I got to ceiling I tried a sheet rock knife, cuts just like sheet rock. Score one side break in half cut paper on other side and your done 0 mess. Unlike hand saw that made big mess. Your insulation knife is a mix of both, it's shaped a little like an old bayonet.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for watching

[@jmccracken491]

Great I have the Dewalt Impact Driver talk about power. I also have a Dewalt drill and the bit sets for both Dewalt makes good stuff.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

They sure do Jim

[@robertjanez7467]

thanks for posting, looks great! I'm looking to insulate from outside as well. Question, how come you didn't want to put the 2 x 3 in the corrugation of the trailer exteriod side - and then nail the rigid insulation to the 2 x 3? (you wouldn't have to cut up the insulation boards). and Which type of screws did you use to attach 2x3 (4) into your storage container sides? no carriage bolts right?

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I used tekk screws self tappers.

[@PaulDGreen-bu4iz]

Looks great brother! Did you get my email? Thank you for sharing!

[@umustbbornagainActs2-38]

Did the external insulation stop the interior sweating?

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Yes I have no sweating inside.

[@umustbbornagainActs2-38]

@Robinson-Homestead Hey thanks so much for the response! We're excited to start our shipping container build in the next few months! I'm glad I found your channel.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I really appreciate you watching and good luck with your build, keep me posted how it's going or if you have any questions.

[@tintdr]

No link for the knife like you said you put in description

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Sorry about that i will look into it , where are you from?

[@tintdr]

@@Robinson-Homestead Long island born and raised. Grew up fishing on long Island and going upstate N.Y to the catskill mountains as a kid, Now I have 48 acres up there and found your channel and subscribed looks like we have allot in common, we are both very good with our hands and fixing things and invading with great imaginations who make things come to fusion, and we love the land. First came across your cargo trailer build as I also built a cargo camper and was doing some searching. We have a 900 square foot cabin up in the mountains and need to build a storage building this summer for the tractor and the trailer. I snow bird though. Winters in Tampa Florida spring and summer and fall in the mountains, 6/6

Yes worked great.

[@babybeasimplekindofvan7035]

Question, I know you insulated inside one building and on the outside of the other building… Which one seemed to be better?

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Not sure I just wanted to insulate thanks for the comment and watching.
