- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- 2024 has been one of the worst tornado seasons in the history of Texas. We have decided to build our Shipping Container Home in a way that will resist being torn apart by tornados and high winds and destructive hail. Come follow along during our build of our first " Tornado Resistant Home ". We should have lots to learn from during our mistakes while learning all the tricks to building a beautiful new Tornado Resistant Home.
Please forgive some clips with poor sound quality. We are working at correcting the issues. We appreciate your patience with our novice recording skills.
Thanks for watching. Stay tuned for part 2 which is in the works as we build.
GOD BLESS TEXAS / USA
THANK YOU VETERANS AND FIRST RESPONDERS FOR ALL YOU DO!
PEACE
I would like to apologize for some poor sound quality. Julie and I are working at making things better for the next chapters of the build. Please be patient, we are calling in the big guns (daughters) which is up on all the video making skills. Peace
Your good, talk away!😎
Thanks Ron. We are running rather slow now that the numbing weather is here in Texas. We are framing right now and installing all kinds of things now that the holidays are over. We should have Part 2 up in about a week if we progress enough to show progress. Stay Safe. PEACE
@ I also live in Texas. I know those issues. Same to y’all.
Great job 👏, they are needed 😊
Subbed. Can't wait to see more. I don't plan on building one myself, but do enjoy watching what others do with theirs. Thanks.
Thanks. Part 2 should be up soon, but the holidays are slowing things down a bit. Peace
At 8:40 of this video it states that the aquifer supplies Ozarka brand water. Are you saying that your well provides you with the same type of water that Ozarka supplies because sign me up. that is the only water brand i buy and drink daily. To get that from the ground would be priceless.
We were told by our well driller, this is the same aquifer the Ozarka distribution plant draws from which is in East Tx. We agree, the water does taste good. The only thing we are in the process of installing is a whole house filtration to remove the sulfur smell which we will show and discuss in the next upload. Peace
👍👍
investigate an ICF house with storm shutters.
safer than a shipping container.
also easier for heating / cooling.
Hey Steven, ICF homes are definitely solid built which I have seen here in Texas. I did investigate the ICF method, but we felt the cost would be over budget and the work load would be too much to handle alone for the two of us, which is why we ended up with shipping containers. I appreciate the input. Peace
show how the containers are anchored to the piers
Ray, I will put a clip in part 2 which is being worked on now. Peace
Have you considered a plasma cutter? It beats a grinder with cut off wheels.
Hi Cathy, yes, I have considered using my plasma and may still give it a shot with more wall cutouts to come. I hate the cutoff wheels. Not only is the process slower, but at times the wheels explode and can be dangerous.
Good work, but please your audio is worse than horrific.... please do something
I agree. My daughters have been called upon to help us with recordings and editing since my skills are limited, which I will work on. I use a 10th generation I Pad, which has the mic location where it is easy to cover while holding. I did purchase a personal mic to attach to my shirt, which will hopefully help the sound. Juggling the project and the recordings has proven to be a challenge for sure. I appreciate the advice. Peace
do away with the piano music. I am interested in what you have to say
Noted. Cute little puppy in your pic. Peace
You might have great content but the music destroys it. Downvote and bye.
Noted. Peace
Music okay, but your speaking can hardly be heard...
Hi Jacob, Noted. I am the first to agree with you. My recording and editing skills are very limited and have called in the big guns (Daughters). Working to fix the issue for now on. No music while speaking and the volume will be turned up! Peace
surely you "jest" ? it's spelled "gist" !!
Sorry. I’m not very edgumacated. Lol. I used to spell great but the last few years I’m lucky I can put my pants on properly. No guarantees if I have my undies on though😌
