We Wrapped Our Shipping Container with Rough Cut Lumber!

This week we are finally insulating and wrapping the outside of the shipping container, or at least the front of it! We can actually see the transformation happening and it is looking SO GOOD!

If a board or any construction member or material is vertical you say it is plumb. If a board or any construction member or material is horizontal you say it is level.

[@JayBates]

I was about to ask about that stump right before you explained it. I need to get one of those stump grinders. The conversion is looking great. I bet milling your own lumber for it feels pretty nice.

[@Makebuildmodify]

10:05 I use a plate level to solve that problem. It works great on tall walls where the studs may not be straight. I would imagine that it would also work for the siding.

[@paulmonk7820]

On the rest of the siding , install it even on the bottom, and cut the top. Way easier! 😊 ❤

[@Woodbrew]

Probably right!

[@derekpiehl85]

Another wonderful video. Dylan and Mollie great job. I say this a lot in the comments but it is still great to have younger people wanting to do hands on things not just sit on there phones. I am curious on what you will be doing over the big doors on the end. Till the next video keep up the quality work.

[@gregpaterson330]

Wood r value is approximately 1.41 per inch

[@alsanova]

Don't ask, but it kind of resemble a mini version of Frank Howarth workshop 😀 Looking good so far! 👍👌

[@mpmfr]

That was my initial thought when I saw the roof going up, also has a hint of Life Uncontained to it. 😊

[@Woodbrew]

What an honor😊

[@brookead]

Speaking of the view... then neighbours must be thinking "well the side THEY look at is a lot prettier!" :) :). You guys rock. :)

[@Woodbrew]

Lol yea they are probably happy to see the blue container go.

[@jimhohl9003]

Horizontal boards equate level... vertical boards equate plumb...

[@CNCSTUDIO1]

I love watching your content. It's very inspiring for others to see the hard work and success you have achieved as such a young couple building their dream. Great job guys.

[@jasonculinarycoppadgett]

iFixit for the win ❤

[@johnhoward3694]

You are quickly becoming my favorite channel!!! Still love "Molly on the man-lift".

[@Woodbrew]

This comment made our day😊😊

[@rosemaryjasper1121]

Great job! Looks awesome. Looking forward to the next one❤

[@mikeymad]

Repetitive? - maybe. Entertaining? - Defiantly. Great progress in getting the wall up. Turning into a full blown building. -- Rent it out as a tiny home. - Cheers

[@Woodbrew]

😊 Thanks! It would be a cool rental, but we plan on using it as flex space for projects that won’t fit in our shop.

[@michaelhancock5606]

Nicely done. Molly needs a hard hat😊

[@Bolthole_Studios]

Are you seeing any thermal bridging/transfer through the furring strips holding the insulation and which is attached directly to the metal container?

[@markushamm8762]

what a diffrent, really great!

[@littlegriffoffgridalberta6837]

Great job guys ! love that B&B look :) It's coming along good & as long as it looks straight to you that's all that matters , I mill my own & all my buildings will be B&B over the next couple years, I have about 60hrs just cutting 1+8 last summer so I can use it this year :)

[@jerrystout3032]

Great Job guys!!! Outstanding Craftsman ship 👍!!!

from Wales across the pond ! great job and love your videos

[@andreacrashe9894]

*You both done great... it's looking awesome... look forward to your next video 🙂.*

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you for watching😊😊

[@smthcrg22]

Temps on sides and roof, which side has the sun shining on it?

[@williamlhumphrey8326]

Awesome guys

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you!

[@dper1112]

You mentioned that the foil tape isn't useful because water intrusions aren't a risk. That's true, and it's also true that air leaks aren't a major concern, either. Both of those are reasons why people would ordinarily use foil tape, or house wrap, or flashing tape, and both of them don't matter when you have a solid metal container underneath.

[@Woodbrew]

Yea my thoughts exactly. Air intrusion is the biggest issue and actually I think we will have to vent this because it’s too airtight😅

[@chelseamcclung1637]

Looks great!

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks!

[@schbiker24]

Great job 👏🏻 👍🏻

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you! 😃

[@tomwilson5822]

Love the videos 😊

[@cliff5240]

Looks great!! That thing can double as a tornado shelter :)

[@Woodbrew]

Haha yea that’s for sure!

[@GibClark]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@dalemciver7118]

It Looks Awesome Great Job 😀😀😀😀

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks!

[@christopherpridmore]

I try to fix everything also. Great video

[@Woodbrew]

Yes! Thank you!

[@mrfender5001]

How do you keep the rough cut lunber from rotting?

[@leosweeney7955]

I thought board n batten, is supposed to have a gap between boards for natural wood movement?

[@Woodbrew]

This is green wood so it won’t expand only shrink.

[@scottmorris4914]

It looking really good. The batons are doing exactly what they are supposed to, covering the space between boards and making it look level. Between the siding and Whats above it, are you going to put any type of flashing, like Z flashing, to carry water away instead of going between the boards?

[@Woodbrew]

Probably will use a flashing, but not sure how that will be done quite yet.

[@williamlhumphrey8326]

Track saw 1 side the saw table. I know it's a lot of work but will be better

[@Woodbrew]

In the end it doesn’t really matter. It’s nice to work on a project like this that is more utilitarian than fine craftsmanship.

[@paulmonk7820]

Wonder if shiplap edge would help 😮

[@dirtychinchilla]

And people think insulation is just for the cold!

[@Woodbrew]

Where we live it’s only for the heat lol.

[@AngelLuisTrinidad]

It looks so nice that you have to do the back of the container also. I mean, who washes their face but leaves their butt dirty.

[@markduggan3451]

You made me nervous when you were standing on that ladder.

[@trentc7329]

15:21 18:48 18:55 What are you doing? Get the right ladder and use it properly. Can’t earn much injured.

[@danaowen9014]

I noticed the tree was gone. The front looks so great. I have to say that the music, of the guitar, is too repetitious, i had to turn down the sound.

[@Woodbrew]

Noted!

[@kevinb6102]

Does Ifixit tell you how to fix whatever is not working?

[@Woodbrew]

Yes! They have a great repair guide section of their site.

[@kevinb6102]

@@Woodbrew wow nice! Thanks

[@peterrondelez]

Curious, when adding so much to the exterior of the container (metal roof, insulation, siding, etc), at what point does the container itself become irrelevant and when would it have made more sense to skip the container and just use a concrete slab(or wood floor) and wood framing? As is, I can't imagine you're saving much money by starting with a container. And you're restricted to its dimensions. Do you know for a fact that you'll be moving it later, is that it?

[@Woodbrew]

We owned the container already and did not purchase it for this. We used it because we had it. However, this is a common misconception. Concrete alone would cost almost as much as a container where we live. Concrete is expensive and we live next to a port so containers are cheap.

[@peterrondelez]

Oh I see, cool. I assume you want to build a permanent woodworking shop on your property at some point, so I was just thinking why not build a proper small building that could be expanded over time as your needs grow instead of working with a fixed-size container. But if you already had it, makes sense to use it. And it of course makes for good youtube content with so many people wanting to use containers for various buildings. Lots of hard work you two are doing, wish I had your energy and drive! @@Woodbrew

[@damstr8345]

Are you going to put solor to it?

[@Woodbrew]

Possibly! Definitely going to use a Bluetti power station to power lights and smaller tools etc

[@damstr8345]

@@Woodbrew harbor frieght has excellent low cost with the right power for things like that. And what better way to learn it

[@anthonycollins6353]

Looking good but I got to ask you, could you have famed up the same way without the container? Or is it that you guys are planning on moving it.

[@Woodbrew]

Yes, but we already owned the container.

[@anthonycollins6353]

Got it. Nice job anyway. I’m also happy that you both putout that fire before if got bad.🙏

[@LeviHeatonIII]

What is the end goal of this container? A shed?

[@MISTdesigns88]

An extra work shop is what he said 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@JDDupuy]

A very narrow shed! I would of just built a new frame building instead of wrapping a metal container. It's his gig not mine. Kids do weird things these days and claim to be pros!

[@alsanova]

@@JDDupuy Actually what they're doing is not weird (people even build house with this method) and by using container, it should be able to withstand strong wind which they often get in their area. 👍👌

[@Woodbrew]

We already owned the container and did not purchase it for this project. , No it wouldn’t be cheaper to build it from scratch… I checked. We live near a port and these containers are sold at scrap value.

[@BigGuyVideo]

Looks fantastic nice job!

[@jessdarlington1007]

Why do you not just build a proper building, containers are DUMB

[@BadDadOne]

loose the music

[@asbrand]

Looking good!

Thanks!
