I plan on doing something similar with my two 40 footers. I was thinking of putting some sort of heavy duty tape on the ceiling side of the gap so that the foam doesn't blow through. Do you think that would work? Thanks.
Thanks for showing this process! How has it held up? I was wondering if I had to put a rubber membrane over the roof? I am not going to have a deck covering my two containers Thanks much looking forward to your answer!!!
We used a rental place out of Birmingham, AL. But they are a regional place. There are a lot of container sale places. Prices range by regions but around us they range from $1000-$5000 for a 40’ high cube
So long story short, we live next to a national forestry. So we constantly have Hunter and others walking onto and across our property. Some of them are armed and it would be a poor idea to confront an armed person while unarmed. Also we have a lot of wild dogs in the area. -J
Never going to waterproof that joint. The top of each container is convex so water is always going to pool along that joint. You need to cover the two containers with a roof that is pitched in one direction.
So, we were able to obtain a waterproof seal to keep the interior dry. However, you are correct we are planning at some point to build a roof over all three containers to fully seal the space. -J
Pretty exciting for you two!
How's the container holding up so far?
what was the width of the metal strip for the roof?

lol that gun, for no reason,fuggin goof ball
How thick is the metal strips you are welding on the roof
it is only about 1/16th inch thick I believe. -J
Thanks for the video! Its very informative! Btw! I'm just curious! Its that a bad neighborhood for you to carry a gun while working???
Yeah, I was also wondering why would you would need your gun while building. Maybe wild animals are a problem in the area….

I think you over thought this.... Get a better spray foam and nozzel then tar the roof and lay thick laminate and put up your railing...
Why wearing a gun while doing construction work 👀 bears-wolfs? Others 🤔
Amateur's!
An apostrophe s does not make a word plural.
Sorry never going to work.
Why? Of course it will work.
Nice work...however please stop using the word bascially.....
