The Shipping Container Building ... IS DONE!

[@ThrottleStopRacing]

It is never done, but you get to a point where you can say it's done Congratulations.

[@metaspencer]

You said it ... great to have the space, though. Always good hearing from ya buddy

[@chrisb4419]

heck yeah, Spencer! looks great, what a space..

[@metaspencer]

Boom! Big thanks!

[@elizabethbottroff1218]

It looks great! Do you have shop exhaust fans? A smoke eater like some bars and restaurants use? CO2 detectors, especially in the loft area? A fan in the wall that can supply fresh air? Everything is more sealed in the completed building, so safety will need to be even more important.

[@metaspencer]

I absolutely need a fan but did install a carbon monoxide/smoke detector which has gone off three times now -- always good to know when you're burning things :) I placed it up in the loft so it catches smoke pretty well. And I bought an exhaust fan to stick in the wall, just haven't installed it. Thanks for that encouragement!

[@lorenmeyer5290]

Love that barn Spencer! Awesome job!

[@metaspencer]

Thanks Loren! :)

[@pierogies_and_pie]

Box Barn looks great Spencer! I used to cheap out on grinder wheels until I had one violently disintegrate in my face. Luckily I was wearing a face shield at the time but only because I couldn't find my safety glasses lol. Be safe and be well Spence!

[@metaspencer]

Those cheap grinder wheels just aren't worth it. I guess some of us gotta learn the hard way :) thanks man

[@GinaKayLandis]

This is so cool! Glad it's "done" - figuratively? We shall see. Excited to see the conglomeration video where the whole build is shown! Although I'm thinking there could be a .000329538 chance it might take two videos....... I missed your latest video so was giddy to find this one posted tonight! Hope you and yours are doing well. Glad no trees have twisted wrong or let loose a crazy branch. Keep on keepin' on, and I will hold my breath until the next one! 😂😂😂 Take care, Gina

[@metaspencer]

Always nice to have your support and to hear from ya, Gina. :) Much appreciated

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

I like those fence panels for the upper balcony. The barn turned out awesome. Thanks for taking us along.

[@metaspencer]

Thanks for that! Yeah I'm pretty happy with it too :)

[@gregbrown9271]

Very nice Spencer 👌

[@metaspencer]

thanks buddy

[@nutsarefancy]

I think you might be the most successful solo tree guys out there. A great example of the American dream

[@metaspencer]

Thanks for that, man. There are definitely some good times to be had out there ... always something new :)

[@carlobernardi1387]

Ahhhhhhhhhhh my friend as a Door Guy, firefighter and arborist.. you did a good job in that door.. if that was my door, it'd be an anchor for my boat..😊.. Heck of a man cave..👍👍👍

[@metaspencer]

Man cave for sure, buddy. Lots of room for saws (both working and not) :) I hope things are good with ya!

[@Clothis64]

It is far the time when you walked your container on a leash but the result is beautiful then that it is you who built it according to what you wanted. Thank you for sharing this experience ;)

[@metaspencer]

Yeah it was quite a saga and a lot of fun. thanks for that! :) Good hearing from ya

[@ddalton692]

👍 It has been fun watching your journey over the years ( many endeavors ). Nice job on the door and the shop looks great.

[@metaspencer]

Thanks for that. I'm definitely a big fan of doing "many endeavors," so I'm glad you noticed :)

[@davidpalmer3510]

Great job…👍🏻

[@metaspencer]

Big thanks!

[@rudyfisher7660]

I'll tell you what. It looks pretty good and I'll like that door man that door came out really nice into the side of that container. You did a good job. A really great job on that building

[@metaspencer]

thanks for that, buddy! yeah it's been a fun build and turned out to be a pretty good space :)

[@Peacekeeper150]

"Shipping container barn" is how I first found your channel! Yours is the perfect "working man's" space : ) Some people will never get it so those of us who do, need to stop trying...

[@metaspencer]

That’s so cool to hear! Most excellent:)

[@ragnarocking]

nicely done. You're just missing a basketball hoop for use during those rainy/snowy days

[@metaspencer]

You read my mind on that one. Absolutely!

[@japhyjim]

Love the shop, even the 'goop n paint n stuff' 👍

[@metaspencer]

thanks for that! yeah, I'm pretty happy with it :)

[@sporranheid]

Good stuff! Great working space. Rather jealous. That's some door. Did ye call it "tankerish"? 😆 Cheap grinder discs and no guard, definitely sketchy. Glad you survived to smoke those others down to the filter! 😂 Best, Mark

[@metaspencer]

Thanks for checking out the project and dropping a note. Good to have the dang thing wrapped up! :)

[@6ftS]

now you just have to get the band in there for the neighborhood shin-dig... come on old man. dont be cranky... get a party started!!!! well done buddy, that looks amazing and you have kept true to the prison bus process... one foot in front of the other... as always.

[@metaspencer]

Nice of ya to say. Yeah we'll have to have a party in there for sure :) You're right, as usual

[@BTimmer]

[@williamrehberg2546]

Looking good Spencer. I, too, prefer to not think about how much my projects cost!😂

[@metaspencer]

I'm glad to know I'm not alone in that regard! :)

[@havespurswillclimb]

Enjoyed the video. That was quite a project. A hefty undertaking. A long drawn out "affair". Whew, glad it's over. I don't think I could take anymore. 😉 You are a zealous fellow. I tip my hat off to you for your tenacity, your enthusiasm and your overall drive. Now let's get back to more tree climbing videos.

[@metaspencer]

Speaking of trees -- I've got some big white pines to climb tomorrow in a tight spot, and one of the dang things is cabled to a zip line. So you know how it is: sketchy and wild every day out there. Thanks for checking out the box barn build. I'm digging the space for sure :) Good hearing from ya man

[@cathieroth7729]

What a great place for all of your projects. Well done

[@metaspencer]

Absolutely. Nothing beats a good space ... the options and possibilities begin to multiply

[@dan-dan-da-treeman]

Makes me feel like I need to do something...then I remembered I just got done doing a lot of climbing...I'm good watching you do stuff. Super awesome build man.

[@metaspencer]

yeah rest up man! tis the busy season!

[@marklazarus2584]

Watched all the vids and really liked them excellent job build

[@metaspencer]

Watched all the way through! I'm honored. Thanks buddy

[@concretejoe1981]

Sir, very impressed with your setup. Ive watched every video on this build a few times, very entertaining and you’ve given me ideas for when i start my build which will be similar to yours. Kudos and thanks for the videos!

[@metaspencer]

Woah that’s the best thing I’ve heard in a while:) happy building buddy

[@dizdizzle2]

Love it. Well done Spencer.

[@metaspencer]

Thanks for that!

[@Normanntrees]

Didn’t realize it has already been 2 years. Great video as always. Gives me some motivation to finish up the wood shed. Have a good one!

[@metaspencer]

Time flies I guess … finish that shed and it’ll free up your mind :)

Thnx bro

Sweet

[@ioritanabkronk6784]

Spencer, you may not be a builder, but you did it great. Did you have a design beforehand? What are the dimensions or the length between the containers? I'm inspired and planning on building one. Awesome!

[@metaspencer]

Thanks for that! I definitely had fun with the project and it's been a great space to have. No plan ahead of time -- just some napkin sketches. 27' between boxes and they're 40' long. 13' ceilings

[@LarameyJohnson]

My wife and I just began empty nesting, looking to downsize, (sell traditional house and some ground to escape debt) and build something like this on another piece of land to actually live in at least for a while. We are looking for something to pull RV inside of and live when cold and at home but still have a nice gathering area for kids and grandkids to come visit. What is the height of the pony wall you set on top of connex box? What did that give you for overall ceiling height and height of door you could use? What is overhead height both over and under the rear mezzanine. Love this, thanks for sharing,

[@metaspencer]

YOu're gonna love the building -- sounds like a cool transition you're' going through

[@metaspencer]

Pony walls are 4’ to accommodate single sheets of plywood… ceiling is 13’6” or so … mezzanine heights are about 6’ top and bottom so kinda short … we’re in the same stage in life so it’s a good time all around

[@redbeardtree1776]

Awesome job!!

[@metaspencer]

thanks buddy!

Congratulations. Now you can just use it.

[@metaspencer]

Absolutely! woohoo!

[@SteampunkSteve]

Great shops are never done, they are donish. Our shop floors are of similar size and I think you spent less on yours

[@metaspencer]

Yeah but you've got that HUGE water capture system. I've been using just one IBC for rain water capture and thinking of upping my game :)

[@SteampunkSteve]

@metaspencer out here wells are 1000 ft minimum so most people go with rain catchment. Water is life in the desert. You should look into solar too

[@ScottWConvid19]

Click bait! I've been watching from the beginning and having learned how you roll, this is not "Done," this is just the beginning! 😂

[@metaspencer]

hahaha that's funny! yeah, just this morning I was thinking about adding an iBeam and hoist system, so it just keeps going on ;)
