This is amazing what they did with several shipping containers that some have posted about on TBN as storage for their tractors...

Wow! Wonder if Jodie Foster's dad was showing people these as examples in his "housing from shipping containers" scam...

Not a bad idea for a hunt camp or weekend get away place on the cheap. The guy really did a pretty nice job inside.

Don't forget those things are made to be stacked. I think I'd want me a high rise.

So instead of "got me a double wide" you'd say "got me a double up"

Pretty sure eddiewalker did the same thing. Or maybe it was just the barn http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/projects/33401-my-container-barn.html

Or double wide and double high. That's how rednecks learn math...

Jim Bob and his cousin get married and build a house that is 15 feet wide and 18 feet tall. How many wheels did it take to get it there?

It was definitely a good decision by the builder to install that insulation, although I didn't see evidence of a vapor barrier. Without the insulation, the fluctuation in temperatures plus the humidity would most definitely be a problem in addition to mold. Innovative project, and most certainly a cheaper means to provide living quarters. The building must be in a remote area, that is not restricted by building codes;etc.:thumbsup:
