With the foundation complete, we begin framing the new room onto our container home. Everything seems to be going well as we're installing the floor joists, until we run into some bad weather...

I love you guys so much! Spencer, you are your wife's hero bud. You can see it every time she looks at you. And Kenzie, even though your huge and amazing personality might intimidate a lesser man, it's obvious how proud your husband is to have you as the "face" of the family. It honestly brings tears to my eyes to watch you guys raise your little girl while you build your future! Treasure all of this. I've had it before. My son is 22 now and my wife is no longer with me. She was the love of my life. Thanks so much for sharing your lives with us!
Steve
I am very moved by your comment. My best friend and fiancee that I knew for 20 years died last October. His name was Steve.
Wow! That’s amazing ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for stating this in such a beautiful way. It is so beautiful and moving to watch these 3. To watch such a beautiful bond of love is truly a gift. Thank you Steve for sharing yours as well.
Great memories last a lifetime
R&S RC 💕🤗
The best part of watching you two do this is how much you enjoy each other. You're going to have a great house, but you already have a great home.
I really feel good that there are young people like you living, loving and working on your dreams. Spencer has a fantastic work ethic and Kenzie is a very free and animated individual who has brought this child into this world with your Hubby. This has been an epic journey through both of your dreams and hard work. I hope that all 3 of you and yes, the dog, are able to continue through life with the same attitudes and dreams. Bless you all! Watching from Texas!
Oh yes we get to live their dream with them. It is people like this who deserve to be the billionaires of the world.
I concur David, I'd swap my existence for theirs any day. 👍🇮🇪
good
Watching from Texas also.
I sit here and I watch your videos in complete awe of you guys. Here I am a 62 yr old widowed gay male and you guys have lived far more than I could ever imagine. I cannot wait to see the place when it's done. I can't wait to see your kids grow up there. You guys are just amazing. Keep up the great work. Wishing you guys all the best. 🏡🔨🔧
The world will progress well with people like you in it. Such patience, calmness, care and attention. And each other.
A.M. Fortas ...that’s why this video appeals to me so much...They have each other every day all day long and they exude LOVE..Love of life, love of living their life and love for each other and love in sharing it with all of us...BEAUTIFUL!!!
I thought the same thing. My generation was more concerned about getting a McMansion and looking successful but probably leading an unfulfilling & exhausting life just trying to keep up. Hopefully this generation will rewrite these values and show that simple things in life feed the soul much better.
@@canadianlady777 Amen💜🙏
@@phammond8155 nice thought.😎👍
Patricia Hammond - we are probably the same generation. I really think that with all of the shift happening because of covid-19 we as a species are having to re-evaluate priorities. I don't think mcmansions are gonna important to nearly as many people.
"Someone" has really gotten good at producing video! Lots of really artful shots in this one and the edits are so smooth and logical--really classy work. Y'all be safe and keep on getting it done! Beautiful country, beautiful people, and one honkin' FINE dog...
Agree the quality of these is really good
Yes they are improving in all areas. Better than anything seen on HGTV
It's so good to see people like them creating their own world. When everyone is searching for HAPPY LIFE. These two stands as an example.
Usually don't comment videos but I have to let you guys know that I just discovered your channel and I'm already all in and looking forward to see your coming videos. This is what this platform is for. The good stuff. Oh, and your editing skills really improved, not just the one's needed to build the house. All the best from Germany to you.
I've left my eaves open. House wrens built a nest there. I'm old but I can hear the chicks squeaking every day and I love it. My Partner, who is older can't hear them. Both of us are slowly edging toward the end of our lives but if we could live forever, it would be through you. Thank you for giving us a glimpse of a Future we will never see.
gruntqueen this is both sad but beautiful all at the same time. 💜
You have seen the best there will ever be. I'm probably in the same ballpark, God has made some marvelous things; and (corrupt) man has messed so many of them up. I wish I didn't have to be the synic that I am, but the world has contributed to make me thusly. I look for the good as you do, but the other weighes me down. Guess I need to work on and trust in my faith more.💜🙏
God bless and keep you two!🌹
Reeble Snarfle Given the way things are going right now, I think you can be forgiven your cynicism, Reeble. Watching this channel is my antidote. These guys are unfailingly cheerful and they clearly love each other. Plus, we get to watch that baby grow. I hope we all live long enough to end up singing "Happy Days Are Here Again!"
❤️💜
@@gruntqueen antidote and watch a baby grow up in the living care of these 2. Oh my goodness, what fun she will have on that property. God bless you and your family have a great day 🇺🇸
The soundtrack to this was fantastic. The climax of the storm paired with the music was super suspenseful.
AGREE COMPLETELY
You guys are super heroes. Filming while doing all this work all by yourselves and taking care of a baby and a dog all the while trying to stay sane. Omg I can't wait to see what it looks like finished and you guys enjoying the fruits of your labor. Pray you guys live a hundred years in this home. You worked so hard on it. Proud of you. #Thisislove
OLD SAY
GET a HOME EASY AND YOU ARE CURSE FOR LIFE
GET A HOME HARD AND YOU ARE BLESS FOR LIFE
Spencer is a smart and calm guy..I’ll definitely give it to him he’s learned and took on a lot for this project alone..all for his family..it’ll all be worth it in the end 👌🏽🇺🇸
Ever good woman would be lucky and very blessed to have a husband like that. This couple reminds me of people in the Seventeenth and eighteenth century who helped to settle and build this country.
I literally cannot wait to see the final product and for family/homestead vlogs ❤❤ please never stop vlogging, you guys have gotten so good at it and I love your life
This series continues to be absolutely inspiring, with everyone stuck at home its amazing to watch this
The way she looks at him is beautiful. You can see so much love in her eyes whenever she's listening to him talk, like she's hanging on every single word he says. It's just beautiful to see.
When I look at these to I see hope for a future with someone true strong and very goofy y’all give me hope 🥺
Am with you...True Love
I hate when these videos come to an end, I just can't wait to see more, keep your head up, stay safe. God would provide.
Dying to see the finish work🙂 you guys is such amazing couple
Beyond a home setup, we are looking at a life project in development, performed by an ideal couple. You are so lucky to have each other. I feel very inspired by your video. Thank you.
💯 percent true!
They are the perfect exemple of a real family ,with goods or bads, they stay together and laught about it . Spencer i hope you realize how lucky you are to have something like that. I wish the best for all four of you.
Kenzie: wait wait wait... I need to move the camera! I can just imagine Spencer’s face when you said that 😂.
Spencer has the patience of Joab he just smiles and it just rolls off his back like water off a ducks back
IN KENZIE'S DEFENSE..SHE WAS JUST PROVIDING US WITH COMEDY RELIEF BECAUSE IT WAS SUCH A TENSE MOMENT! *WINK* WINK*
I am looking forward to the day when Spencer finally "gets" he is a PRO. A Pro doesn't give up & will always find a way to get the job done. Keep in mind the Pro's are human & they can and do make mistakes all the time!! Give Beau a kiss for me! Oh, I don't like little storms or huge tornado hail throwing storms, bugs or snakes!!!!!!!!!! Take care and God Bless.
His skills are pretty impressive.
Love the fantastic time lapse photography of the sky, the storm, etc.
I have watched from the beginning. My wife and I think back on everything we have been through everytime we watch one of your videos. We are getting ready to do the same thing. It's nice to see kindred spirits actually obtaining their dream. It gives us hope! Thank you guys.
I really like your camera angles & editing in this video, especially the opening shots of your dog in the pond,
Always enjoyable watching!
Thanks Chuck
He is the cutest isn't he?
LOVE YOUR SHOW...ALWAYS LOOKING FORWARD TO NEW EPISODES

Wow.......simply so wow
Totally agree - This should win a Golden Globe and of course an Oscar
@@eleezemckenna6787 well....dont you think that will be a little too much.....lol
I’ve been in construction for 26 years watching you work is peaceful I guess the best advice I could possibly give if it helps at all is the experience I’ve had in the past with doing my own home renovations is that it’s best to finish one project at a time don’t get too spaced out because then everything seems overwhelming I’m just watching this now I wish I would’ve caught it in the beginning So I’m not even sure if you guys are completely done yet or not but I hope my advice might help a little best of wishes and congratulations on the kid I have three myself and everyone of them are a different blessing
Can we all just appreciate how the title of this video was not click bait, even though there was QUITE an opportunity to do so!
Even if it was the most boring title possible, we'd still all watch your progress! Keep it up!
Caleb_MacKay haha I was just thinking the same thing! Love the content guys :)
I love watching your videos you guys has really inspired me to do my own projects I had turn my shed into a movie theater for my family I am really proud of it I want to say I'm praying for your family to stay safe out here with this virus going around and stay healthy as well everybody that's watching this video I'm praying for your family as well
CONGRATULATIONS on your amazing baby, house, running water, etc etc etc! most importantly, TY for taking us on this inspirational journey with you! You both are just made to spread joy in this world!! MUCH LOVE From Florida!!
You guy are amazing. You are truly blessed to have such a beautiful family and relationship. I can see and hear your love for each other in your eyes and voices.
That storm got my heart racing. I was in a tornado in 92. Phew
When you are done building this beautiful home, you guys should include Video Editing, and (of course) Custom Home Construction as options for what's next in your professional lives. No one edits video better than you do. No one. It is more than what the technology allows you to do. It is your 'feel' and sheer creativity. Just beautiful. Please consider sharing the soundtracks of your videos with us. Will love to keep your mood in our cars, even when we are not watching you two.
I heartily agree. @lifeuncontained I truly enjoy your musical selections, the fun video add-ins, angles, skits, humor, emotion, tension and so much more that you put into your video work. Fantastic. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I couldn't agree more, their selection of soundtracks is awesome!
The one nice thing about having a basement is tornado shelter :) A nice storm shelter should be next up once the house it done !
Most homes in Texas don't have basements because it's SO HARD TO DIG. There are about a billion rocks you gotta get through on just the first couple of feet. Although a storm shelter would be a good idea
Reece Iovine - Real Estate & Personal Finance great idea👍
Although its not impossible to make one. The water table in Texas makes it very expensive.
@@logantidwell7698 not that hard to dig there . They dug septic field and tank holes pretty well. Everywhere in Texas insnt the same its a big state !
I agree if not sooner. Twenty-foot container set 3 to 4 foot into the ground than dirt piled over the top to 1 to 2 foot deep.
You guys look so happy together and I really hope when I get older I have a marriage like you guys. Your hopes and dreams you sold everything you had to fuffill them. I really respect what you guys are doing. Keep going love from kentucky💕
Just started watching you guys are so cute.gave me great nostalgic when my hubby with our 3 young kids started our house.best stage in a couples life.wishing all the best !!! Hello from PUERTO RICO
Sometimes, when your video is over, I get sad..... I just didn’t get enough. Can’t wait to see what you do next 👍🏼
Me too. Just not long enough. Or enough period. Give us a couple more please
Me too! I just discovered this channel this past weekend and it's like my new TV show! Love it!! 💘
Longer videos please.
Yes...I just finished watching and that was my first thought too. I love your videos. I was so scared for the 4 of you during the storm. Seeing the clouds break was a relief for sure. Keep on building cuz I'm gonna keep on watching 😁
So much the same! I love watching these two and seeing little squishy also! Kenzie has the best sense of humor and is always smiling and laughing and Spencer is so chill and it amazes me that he is figuring out how to solve the challenges they have faced along the way. They are such an adorable little family!
5:46 "I need to move the camera" hahaha, Ur concerne with us is so lovely.
I love their body language, they both respect each other. God bless you both and your child.
The living room is looking impressive. Seeing the size of those hailstones, you might want to consider a storm shelter as a future project.
I love the way those two love each other and how she respects him and stroke his male ego so lesson to be learned.
Mozelle Bryant okay feminist
lol like women dont have an ego.. ok.
I am assuming that this is a joke
I love how these two show love to each other. Its love it's not ego he does it for her as she does it for him that's it.
She doesn't "stroke his male ego" she supports him and he supports her like a good husband and wife should.
My wife and I have been together for over 30 years and I can spend every minute of every day with her and it never gets old. It looks like that's what you two have. Cherish it forever because very few of us can spend every minute of our lives with someone and love them more by the day. Great progress by the way!
Spencer is a carpenter by trade right? I remember reading this as having no experience.. Quite the impressive result!
I had same with my husband.....he is passed now!😥
Spencer is the engine that turns, McKenzie is the energy and Beau is the reason for it all. I pray your life is blessed with years of love, joy and peace.
It is once in a lifetime that you find someone that is capable with you I enjoy watching your love for one another and your beautiful baby.
Good Progress guys! Spencer can do anything 😁🤙
Before you go any further on your addition, I would recommend replacing your homemade "glulam beams" with (2) pressure treated 2 X 10's with 1/2" OSB sandwiched in-between them and placed on edge. If you replay your video you will see the unacceptable deflection in your beams. After numerous cycles of expansion and contraction, it will delaminate causing it to sag in-between the piers creating a squeaky rolling floor, cracked drywall, binding windows, etc... It's much easier to fix now. You will be glad you did.
I thought that's what he was doing, then I saw it. Looks like a waste of lumber, and will probably still sag.
I disagree .. those laminated beams are ‘overkill’ .. they will be just fine 👍👍
Go sit down Big D .....We are not here for your opinion .
Great work Spencer, very well put together. But I do have to agree with Big D lumber in that position (lying flat) will cost you and wont be as stable. Stay brave guys, (that storm was crazy) and keep up the great work. 😎
I agree with Big D... proven fact that if you lay a board flat like that you get just the 2" strength, plus they have to carry the weight of each board themselves... you need to stand the width of the board up and get the width of the board strength..
Well just watched Spencer and wifey's 1st video loved it. I am a fan and person who loves videos that wonderful people make for us to learn from and enjoy. I personally love their relationship and how they show and explain how to build from no knowledge to using the internet and sources and just doing it. Just goes to show if you really want it you can have it. Might take time but time is all we have in life. And Spencer and his wife definitely will have so much to cherish and enjoy from building there home from there hearts and together. Again very inspiring and love there videos. Thank you.
So happy that Wes Wayson settled down and is building a container house.
I wish this was a tv show i feel like it ends to fast I just love watching you guys
I saw a creator that attached guide wire on the corners of a cabin to big trees near the cabin in Texas..
In your case you can dig a few more Sono tubes Spencer with some hooks on 4 corners...maybe a 10-20 degree angle off the container on all four sides.. Then skirt the entire house so no wind gets under you guys... No wind will ever blow you away. Love yas..be safe out there !!!!
I love it when Spenser humors MacKenzie. He's such a good sport!!
Hi guys .Wow you blow me away with every video. I absolutely love you guys so much. Your an inspiration to anyone with your endless talents.I love bear sooo much so thankyou for showing him alot in the videos it cheers me up.I wish you guys so much happiness in the house because you deserve every happiness. I'm so happy your baby was born healthy aswell. Wishing you so much love from England.Were with you all the way. Xxx
Awesome storm! Maybe a storm shelter should also be in your plans?! I'm new to the south and last week was pretty intense! I recieved 4 alarms on my phone in one night ... thankfully the tornadoes missed me by about 3 miles. Stay safe! Love your videos, they always make me smile 😎❤
I agree, they could dig a hole and set a 10foot container in it and it would blend in with the house
So excited to find your vlog waiting for me when I returned from my “walk”. Holy cow, that was one very, very scary storm. The sound of the hail on the metal roof would had me under something. Bear in the pond just makes me so happy, he is such a wonderful dog. The donkey looked like he wanted to taste those fingers. Your property is absolutely beautiful. The addition is coming along very nice, a lot of extra work but well worth it. Beau is getting so big, isn’t it scary how fast they grow? I hope you both know how much your fan “family” loves you and is rooting for your every success. Your vlogs editing is awesome. Your camera shots of everything just amazes me. Stay safe.
As an Aussie living in Queensland, that was a pretty good effort at an Aussie accent.
Guys, Am watching all the way from London, UK. you never stop to amaze me with the energy and how you complement each other through it all even with a baby, You're one of my best programs by a country mile. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us.🇬🇧 😍😍😎
Just discovered your channel today and been watching binge all your videos while doing this beautiful house. I just admire how much hard work and patience u both have. A very perfect couple with a very beautiful angel. From now on I’ll keep watching you guys coz I also plan in the near future to build my very own tiny home.😊
I’m Like uncontained righ now ,sailing on a Supply Vessel in Brasil 🇧🇷 ... more than 56 days FAR away from my family. Working on atlantic sea , and waiting for the next one vídeo . See you soon 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Tornado, welcome to Texas! Next build video should be tornado shelter. Loving the videos just wish they were longer :)
Why you guys in USA Texas still building with wood when is a high risk tornado land? I don't get it. Cheapest?
Only if you knew
I love that you guys did a DIY house build with no prior knowledge.
Experience when hands on is the best teacher.
It's been 2 years n I look forward to seeing this house fully furnished and ready for occupancy for your family👨👩👧🐕
This couple is always in sync, love them ❤ many blessings 🙏
Whenever I watch always think soulmates actually do exist. Love you guys..
This couple are engineers and construction workers. They're a package. A good package
unbelievably brave souls, God bless them. They deserve to be on HGTV, Amazon and Netflix with their own show.
She helps Spenser, takes care of the baby, and edits videos. What a WOMAN!!!!
I’m always a little disappointed when I see the “Like & Subscribe” because I know that this episode is over!!! Love y’all...stay safe & stay well...❤️❤️❤️
Ugh me too! When I hear the outro music, I'm always like "NOOOOOOO!!!"
ruclips.net/video/z2Fz0FrJCnY/видео.html
So very true Donna, me too. Especially at the moment (Covid-19 lockdown) I could watch those three all day long :)
I always hope for the bloopers right after...
Me too! I look forward to the weekend and another episode and then it’s over too fast! Love them though!
WOW😇. This made me tear from the beginning to the end. I love everything about you both. God bless your newborn.😇 👶🏼 ❤️We all have it in us to not take life for granted and to appreciate it. From building a home from scratch and not knowing much to taking care of a newborn is what LIFE is all about! And the LOVE you both share for one another is remarkable & amazing. I commend you both and pray for you both on the LIFE you BUILT. I can only say I wish I had the means to take my family away and buy land and build. What a blessing. Much love and prayers sent.! Wish your family the greatest life you can have & thank you for sharing this.
Love watching your journey through this and the progress as it unfolds looking good glad the storm did not do any damage and you are all safe.
I just love watching this little family grow ☺️
That terrifying look when you say "So there is a tornado " OMG .
My heart literally sank, OMG NOOOOOOOOOO
I was anxious!!😳
How to make a shelter we got snakes all over the place and they go down in it
That is my exact facial expression when I hear 🌪 WARNING and I know we’re in the path of it. Scary 😩😲😬
First time to have bumped myself with this channel and for some reasons I’ve got hooked into it right on the spot. Thought this lovely couple is truly inspiring ♥️ Can’t contain the amount of inspirations this channel draws into a bunch of folks around. It’s RAW, REAL & RELATABLE to many folks who are courageous and motivated enough in starting their new life from the “scratch” - with such passion and determination. Great job guys. Could count on my fingers watching random RUclips videos WITHOUT skipping & subscribing at the end. Cheers for sharing portion of your life to us...Bless you more
When you guys said that you were going to add a room, I kind of wondered about the container wall. That's really cool that you're keeping the container wall as a "character wall."
Time to think about building a storm shelter :)
You need to hit up Vans for some type of sponsorship, that’s all he’s worn while building a house! 😊👍🏽
I love watching you young beautiful people building your dreams and creating your family. What is your furbaby's name. You folks have a great attitude.
My Wife & I love watching your videos. Curious why you didn't just add a 3rd container for this add on? We also would recommend that you guys sink a septic tank 2/3 into the ground and then mound the dirt over it to make a tornado shelter. Spring storms can be hell in Texas! Peace.
Since you all have done such an awesome job so far, you might think abought buying a 3rd shipping container, and burying it and using it as a basement/ bad weather safety area.
Hey guys! Around 16:30 Spencer was putting spacers in the floor joists, just something I have learned over the years with working with my dad: Rather than putting them in a strait line, stagger them a little bit, maybe 1/2 an inch apart, that way you can just screw directly into the side, instead of on an angle. I don't know if the screws being on an angle was on purpose...just trying to help :D
Great job btw!
I love the journey you both have chosen. Very inspiring.
I am from India and I am watching all episodes...best of luck... keep it up
It's so cool when a new viedo finally comes
Spencer man... I feel for you... you've reached the point where no matter what miracle you produce, it's just expected... being unable to do something is an impossibility... I feel for you man. When you're struggling nights, weekends, hours on end to figure out how to make it seem simple... power to you man, we see you... keep it up you're doing amazing work.
Your home is going to mean so much and be a wonderful travel through your family with lovely memories through your generation!
I hate when the end of the video comes because I just want to watch more, more and more.
Me too, you guys do a fantastic job re the video .. Love the beautiful scenery shots and that gorgeous Dog..
Thanks for the " Tornado ride".. Here in NZ have experienced plenty of earthquake shakes but not tornadoes... I was sitting here almost scared and worried for you..LOL but the little comments through got me through...LOL
but gotta ask how did your car endup.. must have taken quite a bashing..
BTW been following and enjoying your vids for quite sometime now.. thanks heaps for the rest and relax they give me..
blessings always from North island NZ..
I for sure agree
Same here. I hate when that particular music starts because I know the video is about to end. :(
Water Bottle Blues I was just going to text that, I feel the same way.
Me siento igual, justo me encontré a estos muchachos en cuarentena y solo espero el día en que ponen un vídeo.
I feel the same!!!!
Dramatic time-lapse footage of the roiling clouds had me nearly as tense as you were.
I want to say that I've so enjoyed catching up on your adventure. Mr. Spencer is amazing. Ms. Mackenzie is a charming, vibrant young woman whose laughter and shenanigans have inspired me to laugh aloud amid the solitude of the Kansas shelter in place situation. That's a truly appreciated gift. I absolutely Love Bear - what a fantastic dog!! I just want to love on him - he makes me smile. Your daughter is adorable with a beautiful laugh like her mom. Bless you all from Kansas.
Wow, you give me so much encouragement. When I was young I took a class on Carpentry. So tools, are not alien to me. I'm just like Awakeinidy, Don't have the strength and the Grands are hitting their fifties so I have to wait for the Greatgrands to get some sense. May God Bless you in all your endeavours. Oh yeah, there's nothing like tin roof rain putting you to sleep. KUDOS
Wow! guys thanks for sharing this spectacular work of yours God bless you always.
When supporting joists that span 12 feet with no overhang beyond the beam, a double ply beam can span in feet a value equal to its depth in inches. A double 2x12 beam can span 12 feet; a (2) 2x10 can span 10 feet and so on. PM ill help anyway i can to make life a little bit easier.
Shouldnt the beam be turned the other way. I've never seen lament beams stacked on top. But placed side by side.
@@thecynic807 Most GLB's are stacked
Love how you come up with solutions
"on the way". My wife and I are also making everything DIY, so i know the feelings with challenges and how to master them.
Can't wait for every new video.
Stay strong and keep on building.
Everyone, please try to watch all ads. Don't skip. Help these two earn $ and support their build.
The worried look on your face made my heart sink. That hail storm was amazing. Love you guys keep up the awesome work yous are doing.
Love this video, great filming, editing and music are all on point. But seriously guys, you need to build a storm shelter. Sink a 10 foot container in the ground and fill it with enough supplies for a day minimum. Also attach a lightning rod. Welcome to Tornado Alley! Tornadoes are nothing to mess with. They can turn on a dime, miss this house and get the next. I hate to say it but turning off the lights to see it coming is useless, unless it is middle of day, you will never see it coming. Especially being surrounded by trees, if by luck you were able to see it, you would only have 30 seconds before it hit! this is no joke. Build a underground shelter and when you get a warning, get in the shelter immediately! Stay there till you get an all clear. Just because it looks like the storm is receding can mislead you. Ever heard the term, "calm before the storm?". you will when you think its over and get it by the tornado you never saw coming. So many people have lost their lives this way. Please don't be those people, please!
Their exposure to wind storms probably comes from hurricanes in FL. It's pretty common for tornadoes to spin-off hurricane rain bands. I'm sure they have an idea of what can happen in tornado alley.
It's just that the footprint is relatively small compared to hurricanes and it's "hit or miss" when one's in the area. Nonetheless, there's no time to debatewhether you're in the path of danger or not. If a tornado warning has been issued, button things up and get to cover.
Even if they don't build a nuclear fallout shelter that would make a prepper proud (overkill)... it may be worth while to plan a safe room into the design. That could be simple as putting in a hatch with access to a cinder block chamber under the high side of the containers. It doesn't have to be too involved, just something without windows that has a substantial structure overhead that could withstand a tree falling on the container's roof. I'd venture to say, the i-beams and framing of that container bottom is enough to serve that purpose.
Boudreaux504 As a born and raised Oklahoman I agree and disagree with you. Yes they can probably get away with building a shelter under the containers but there better be another way out other than the hatch you speak of. If the containers were to shift off the foundation, which is likely in an f2 or higher they would be trapped inside. Since they are in a remote area, on family land, this is a horrible idea. If they were to be trapped how long do you think it would take for the first responders to get out there and free them?
The best thing to do is to contact the company that did the septic system, find out if they do storm shelters, most do since it requires most of the same equipment to install. If they don’t then shop around. You guys should be able to get an in-ground shelter for less than $5,000 that will comfortably fit the 3 of you plus Bear. Do not get a safe room inside the container. If an F2 or higher hits the containers will shift off the foundation and will move. Get an in ground shelter that is away from your water tanks and away from large trees. Also make sure you have a jack inside just in case something large lands on the door. Tornado shelters are like expensive insurance, it sucks to pay for it until you really need it and then it is a lifesaver... literally.
Just to clarify, when I mean to sink a small container in the ground, I do NOT mean under the current container house. That is ill-advised and impractical seams how they already have their house there. No, need to be away from the house but a very short distance away so you can reach it quickly. Hopefully they will never need it. But always best to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it. An f2 or higher will move that house to Kansas. An f1 will destroy it. If that happens, you wouldn't want to be inside.
@@hosslippert6746 I'll be honest, $5k is a lot cheaper than I imagined possible. Makes it a lot more approachable, but still a substantial investment.
I've worked a few tornado incidents (chainsaw crew, not SAR work) and see fallen trees as the biggest risk (cause of death) for the ones I've been to. Most of that is from Louisiana to Mississippi... Not OK/TX tornado alley. So I'll admit I don't know what practices are recommended for their region. So take what I say with a grain of salt... Having something reinforced for weathering a storm is better than nothing. Making sure a tree doesn't have a way to crush you seems to be important... So is a way to exit the rubble after a hit. I agree with you re: having some heavy tools in there. Maybe some cribbing/shims/wedges, 6' pry bar, webbing, come-a-long, and a jack.
It would be probably be wise to hit up county and state OEP to see if there are any suggestions/best practices. Hell, there may even be FEMA grant money to help pay for a buried storm shelter. As long as FEMA doesn't slam you with strange regulations & requirements to qualify, that may be the no-brainer solution to take.
🇧🇸..again truly and continuously inspirational. Love the music touch with it..gives a relaxing mood in addition. For a min i was on the edge of my seat when the bad weather came and you mentioned tornadoes, indeed it created an uneasy feeling of what might happen...but when that speck of light was spotted..it was relieving👐👍. Keep the footages coming. Blessed love and Respect👊
