    You can literally build a house( like this guy) from RUclips videos. Most people can do these things, it really isn’t hard. All you have to do is a little research then get to work it’s that simple.

      sadly its kinda hard in Europe. Every single part needs to be certified by a professional in that area and an architect, and the local government needs to be informed of the build plan to approve it and of the total cost to tax you 😅

    You made yourself quite a cozy home. I’ve loved the idea of making a home out of containers. It makes it budget friendly. I’ve seen people weld I-beams on top of the containers to make a pitched roof to shed water and snow (depending where you live). I’ve even seen where foam insulation was added on both the inside and the outside walls to increase the R-value by reducing heating and cooling costs. The other nice thing about containers, is that you can stack them any way you want to or as high as you want to. You did a fabulous job.

    • @Lifelong_Lesson
      @Lifelong_Lesson Год назад +1

      I'm considering building something like this, and you just gave me a great idea!
      Regarding the I-Beams: couldn't someone just slice the top off the containers and then attach wooden 2x4s (extending the frame, basically) to not only create a pitched roof, but to also add another level??
      And if that were to work out, what about codes and permits (United States - NJ specifically)?
      Because if that can all fly, I might end up going that route. My first idea was to build a small cottage with a basement from scratch... But lately I've been thinking that maybe I should just purchase the land, get two or so shipping containers, and convert them into one small cottage.
      Once that small home is finished, then I want to build the actual rest of the house around it (think of it like adding addition after addition/adding a room or two (or a certain amount of space) at a time.
      Kind of like a home that'll be a constant work in progress for around 5 or more years.
      I wonder if I can pull that off. Time will tell.
      And thanks for that idea!

    • @darkness_speaks
      @darkness_speaks Год назад +3

      @@Lifelong_Lesson Yes you could do that, I believe you would need to add a strut support, example from the i-Beam to the floor as the container walls are not strong enough on their own. Im not a contractor so if I use the wrong terms apologies.

    • @roberthamm9304
      @roberthamm9304 Год назад +3

      @@Lifelong_Lesson as long as everything meets code, you shouldn’t have a problem. You can bury the containers to create your basement, you’ll just have to waterproof them first, but yeah, you can set them side-by-side, stack them on top of each other, set them end-to-end. If you know how to weld, that makes it even better. If you’re wanting to set them side-by-side, weld them together. If you want to expand your space, take a grinder with cutoff wheels, and cut the sidewalls out. If you still have questions about your build, there’s RUclips videos that take you through the process. I hope this helps and answers your questions. Just be careful of the Taxman.

    make sure to put a good amount of insulation between the waterlines and the outside metal wall as it will freeze in winter as the steel makes it worse, i had this problem in my container hm and that was in las vegas where winters are nothing.

    In the future, you gave yourself an option to build 3 more containers off the back to add additional bedrooms. Large enough crawlspace to tie in a second bathroom. I, personally, would need a bigger kitchen. However, you also allow plenty of room to modify. Very nicely done.

    Sharkbites are approved for use underground and behind walls, but installing them there could be risky. In both places, the fitting would be out of site. You would have no way of knowing if it were to start leaking. A SharkBite fitting contains a rubber O-ring, which is not best for permanent connections.

      I'd love to see a study showing any significant negative outcomes from the tee being the way I have it. Although I agree I installed it "upside down" per common building practices, the notion that venting will function significantly poorer because of a small curve in the tee facing one way instead of the other sounds ludicrous to me.

      I just looked into this topic again (I've looked into it before over the last couple years), and once again I'm not getting the impression having the san tee "upside down" or "right side up" makes much difference for venting purposes. Is it a code violation? Not sure. Has it had a negative impact on my plumbing? Not that I'm aware of, and from my research everyone online seems to have a different take on this matter.

    muchisimas gracias por sus videos, realmente son una gran idea para construir de una forma intuitiva y hasta cierto punto economica, saludos desde mexico.

    Good job ! Only not sure about that exposed PEX under the structure. Animals will chew on it. Also, that long horizontal washing machine drain run without vent a and with that 90 in the corner - hm, not sure how that will work ...

      Thanks for the feedback. You mentioned a long horizontal washing machine drain without a vent? The washing machine drain does have a vent.... unless you meant the drain runs to long a length before the vent....

      @@thinkoutsidethecontainer Yes, that is what I meant. With 2" pipe you can go up to 42" horizontal with 1/4" per foot, not to exceed width of the pipe over the length of the run. Now I understand it will probably somehow work, but you may have difficulties later on with drainage. But I don't wanna make it look like I criticize your work. Love what you do - and more power to you! Good job & good luck !

      @@elmono3939 back during the build, I did a good deal of research on the venting pipes for the various fixtures, and I do believe I was confident I had the proper vent distances. But I'd have to go back and double check your numbers, which of course I'm not going to do because the house is done, but either way, thanks for your input.

      @@thinkoutsidethecontainer There are two Codes we go by: IPC and UPC. Then there are local Codes that add to them their own requirments. So it depends under Code your work falls under. UPC is stricter of those two, requiring dedicated vent for each plumbing fixture. IPC doesn't. However, long dirt arm is not as much about Code, as much as it is about law of physics.

    58:17 the small piece of 3/4 of an inch pipe connecting the two 1/2 inch pipes is going to affect the water pressure taking account of the Venturi effect, but I believe only slightly. So not much of an issue. Otherwise the trick you pulled was very intelligent (that's the whole point of innovative engineering, being able to improvise), given the fact that you didn't have any other choice. All in all a very well documented build! Congratulations for your efforts both in putting the personal work to achieve such a high level result and for doing all the research and planning by yourself! Kudos and wish many more projects like these for people that want to think and live out of the box!

      Yeah I had looked into that extensively and couldn't find anything saying it would cause an issue. So far water pressure in the house has been great so....

      ​@thinkoutsidethecontainer what about insulation, for walls ceilings and flooring, did you think it wasn't necessary? Seen some builders that have regretted not using the insulation, as metal will cause condensation inside the property.
      You house looks amazing, you're a perfectionist and very handy, congrats great house and great skills 👏

    • @thinkoutsidethecontainer
      @thinkoutsidethecontainer  Год назад

      Yeah I used spray foam insulation inside on all exterior walls, under the house, and on the ceiling. I didn't film much of that, near the end of the build I was focused more on finishing the house than filming.
