Metal Framing container home, simple step by step, also construction costs!

[@motionsick]

That shot of you punching out the window might be one of the most badass things ive ever seen.

[@bladewire]

Thank you for your sacrifice stud @ 9:31 Thanks for another great informative video 🤜💥🤛

[@rianhamman6187]

When will you guys be making more videos ? I really loved the ones you have done and I'd love to see progress on the 2x 40ft container house with the 40ft unit with it. Please give us an update

[@eddiek4978]

‘What I do for these screws, times are tough!’ You said it, but as always we make the best we can out of any situation. Love the videos.....am definitely hoping to see more content from you and your channel on containers! Hopefully times didn’t get too tough. Hang in there.

[@jonathanescalada1584]

You never showed or talked about how to do the actual light steel frame wall. I don’t get it.

[@victorchico4980]

min 4:00 hard work, nice man, thanks!

[@sobhi05]

Is the gauge of the metal studs from HD sufficient to hold the drywall? They feel too flimsy to me!

[@stephenlane3961]

What are you screwing the metal framing into?

[@BuiltByBaileys]

"KZbin Foundation for construction dudes.." LOL I am INNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!

[@jjsc3334]

Will it be cheaper to hire a welder for metal framing? Compare to shipping container?

[@sociallydanjr2163]

How do I prevent sweating and condensation inside the exterior walls? Spray foam, foam board…..?

[@benhogan4739]

Question...when it comes to flooring, esp. laying tile with grout, is there concern with expansion/contraction of the container? If you were to build in a climate that reaches greater fluctuations in temps through the seasons. The container being made of steel, is there ever risk of grout lines cracking?

[@MakeitTryitDIYit]

Are the steel studs cheaper than 2x4x8 ?

"Florida you're doing me wrong here"...Texas: Hold my beer. I live in Terlingua, TX and it's been 120 F. Stay alive and remember to breathe.

[@pantsbeontheground1620]

Is steel sip panel cheaper,because insulation included.

[@siarlbychan]

I went to your website and there's not really a way to contact or send an email. Due to the skyrocketing prices of lumber and other materials, are you putting things on hold for now?

[@JonBrowning760]

You have a video on wall prep? Do you have to weld tabs to frame to?

[@jeaninecousin8916]

Would you say (especially since Covid-19 hit ) that all the ordering, delivery and transportation cost's have sky rocketed that it's a little more economical to use metal vs. wood to frame a small cabin or home ? Are the size and distance requirements for codes (in your state) the same for metal framing the same as if you were using wood for the structure ? Thanks, Jeanine * (just outside) New Orleans, Louisiana

[@jdm201nj]

A yoooOoOo where you been hiding 🙈 we need to see more videos lol hope everything is good 👍

[@kalrobbins2811]

Great video! I love the ink!

[@hori1721]

Pop rivet the studs to the floor track it's cheaper stronger & the plaster board will sit flasher as the rivets don't stand out so proud.. just saying..

[@allenennis3020]

Can you make a video on the legality and city laws on having a container home on your land. I’m just curious if I can just build one of these on a lot in California without Permits?

[@billlevassiur5891]

I just visited Home Depot. $15 to $18 per metal stud ? Wood studs were $2.75 to $3.

[@philiptaylor2567]

I've yet to see anyone build a 53 ft container home. Any chance we could see one of those in the future?

[@12thburkey]

The InSoFast seems super expensive, why not simply use styrofoam board like the R Tech throughout and then the 1 5/8th metal studs?

[@geckoklaus]

Hi greets from germany. I really appreciate your videos. Great Stuff. Maybe a question thats already been asked, but I see there is an air gap between the outer walls and the insulation due to the shape of the outer walls. Do you fill this gap with foam?

[@Dylster501]

I was literally just talking to my dad about steel framing instead of wood on an office he's installing and then I see this get posted

[@ContainingLuxury]

Hahaha perfect timing!

[@James-cn9no]

Do none of your videos demonstrate how you attached framing to the container?

[@jasonatwood9825]

I see you skipped the Insofast ceiling in this one. Was it just too much of a PITA in that previous build?

[@dorisharrison9885]

Shouldn't a sliding door or window be there.will their be more than one door.just a thought

[@jhonmichaelagustin5581]

Christ is coming soon. Repent, be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, and receive Holy Spirit. To make start your .

[@bettyolis6228]

LOL, heat stroke....I can imagine. Do not worry about your appearance kid, your a handsome one. The price of building supplies scares me. Guess ppl will have to scavenge off buildings being torn down. Why are they so high AND hard to find,,,anybody??

[@pseudoscientist4585]

"ridiculously toasty" nice comment.. i may use!

[@hocuspocus4871]

Blake, I have to be honest. This video was not as informative as it should have been. It is supposed to be a step by step but you skipped a lot of steps. There was nothing about the top and bottom track, only a small mention of how to secure the studs to the tracks, not enough about stud layout and spacing, no mention of what type of screws to use, etc. For a video that is supposed to be for dummies, it doesn't do anything to help. I have been a subscriber since the beginning. I normally enjoy your videos and do find them informative, entertaining, and well made. This one missed the mark.

[@stefan_ok]

I love your videos, but why the music is so loud? It hurts my ears, I have to keep the fingers in the volume control keys and modify the volume all the time...

[@TheRussianWookie]

New vid soon?

[@jtr82369]

I’m framing a 32’ section of a 40’ with a combo of 2x2s & 2x3s, it was $300+ to frame half that so far 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@Kanal103]

The prices are insane!

[@khaderach19]

your hair is fine. also never shave

[@DavidHallSquatchbait]

never use a level...you don't need to...measure and square...

[@Kanal103]

I've been a fan for years (and still am) so don't take this as a hate. But gotta write this, many mistakes here from my POV. :( For those who came here to actually learn something about metal stud framing, basic rules as we use it in EU (we actually use metal studs for drywall works way way more often compared to wood; wood studs are rare here). Basic rules: bottom and top tracks (also called "U profiles") are screwed to the floor/ceiling, first screw about 10 cm (4") from the edge and then every other screw about 80 cm (31"). Add special self adhesive foam insulation for better acoustic insulation by sticking it on the U profile from outer side (so it fills up the gap between the profile and the surface you are attaching it to). Vertical studs ("C profiles") are cut to lenght, always shorter about 10-15 mm (3/8" to 5/8") so they have a little play to them. Always orient the C profiles pointing the same direction, cut from the same end so you'll get prefab holes for your cables in the same height. You only screw your first and the last C profiles to the surface you butt against. You DO NOT screw other C profiles to the U profiles! (yes they are actually being held by the drywall only!) When installing the drywall you screw ONLY to C profiles, never to U profiles. And, of course, don't forget to stagger the drywall sheets. I'm not saying your code can't be different in some details, but I believe these basics are the same all over the world. :)

[@ContainingLuxury]

Hey so thanks for the info! Good to know for Europe but here in the US you would fail your framing inspection if you don’t screw the studs to the u channel aka track, in ever single location on both sides, missing one screw the inspector will tell you to put a screw in there before I leave.

[@Kanal103]

@@ContainingLuxury I thought that may be "code thing"... :) But makes no sense to me anyway as the wall itself has to be independent/separate from the rest of the building because of dilatation and potential for cracks due to temperature and humidity changes as well as building movement due to high speed wind.
