Hehehehe thanks a lot 😊😊 we wish we could be faster and produce more videos a week. But it’s just impossible for us right know unfortunately. Hope you understand!! See you next Monday!🤗
AbdelRahman El-Shikh I found myself in the same predicament when I found these two. Hahahaha. I am addicted ina healthy way. Hahah. Genuinely great channel. Pz to all.
Its so great to see how well you are planning ahead with things like the welding where many would just rush each step and not think of the risks like the heat of welding outside, transferring to the internal plate. Great work, cant wait to see the update next week!
Very good Duca & Roberta. I couldn't wait to go home and watch this episode. So I cheated and watched it in my work break time. See you next Monday....
You could totally do it. Look at what you've accomplished so far. Truthfully, it's all been challenging for you since you've never done a lot of that stuff before. :)
Your getting a good handle on the welding now Duca, good idea to complete welding outside before doing the interior would like to mention that I did my cut outs with a plasma cutter have used one for many years find it easier than angle grinder at my age, quality cutters make very clean cuts with little dross which is easily removed ,keep up the good work, Garry
Desde España quería deciros que me encanta veros trabajar y espero alguna vez poder hacer un proyecto como el vuestro. Muchas gracias por compartirlo con nosotros. ;o)
Recetemente vi um vídeo em um grupo de construtores em container, como nos, e ele soldou algo no lado de fora da casa e dentro já havia revestido com 3tc. E o interessante foi que apesar de ter saído muita fumaça o 3tc não pegou fogo. ele abriu a parede de drywall pra ver(rsss). Então dá pra soldar, mas não é aconselhável. rss
:) Everything metal is going to be welded. Same as me, I get better at welding and look for anything that can be welded. But sometimes we also have to consider that nuts and bolt, screws can do the job also, and without the risk of burning something. Once you get electricity installed you have another hurdle because you will need to disconnect everything before you weld anything else to the container. It is starting to look more and more like a house, looking forward to your future videos.
in Amish communities in the US, they put the wood on the sides of their houses and grow grape vines on the sides of the houses to keep the sun off and to help cool the house. It's a proven idea to keep your house cool and your metal can get real hot.
Hi Guys: A couple of thoughts on the wood batons/strips on the wall. On the West coast of Canada a popular wall treatment is 100mm red cedar stained wood strips with a narrow gap between to see black through. I like the 1 in 3 design ratio which could in your covering be 100 mm boards and a 30 mm gap or 100mm wood with a 50mm gap. I you want a dark stain on the wood paint the metal a light color. or the reverse light wood stain/color over dark metal. I would use narrow studs say 25mm on the edge facing out. Paint the studs the same color as the metal so the horizontal strips visually pop. An alternative to consider if you want it more open use 50mm strips with a 150mm gap between them. Or a 100mm wood strip and a 200mm gap. In both cases the 1 in 3 visual ratio. In the latter wood 1/3 gap 2/3 still a 1 in 3 ratio for the repeating pattern or the reverse wood 2/3, gap 1/3. the old guy Bert
Would like to see a much bigger porch, you have two large doors going out to the patio, and it would be nice to make use out of the space, put a table and chairs out there, etc. great job!!!
We do agree with you but at the same time disagree. Hehehe. Wood is really expensive and we have lots of land around to use. But we will see. Things can change with time. 😉
vcs podiam fazer um carrinho para sua maquina de solda e cilindro de gás para facilitar a movimentação e reduzir o esforço de carregar e postar um vídeo extra como já fez com a mesa
Enjoy your videos. In the US we call where you are sitting a ' Deck/Porch'. A Balcony is a outdoor area - Up high (second floor and up) above the street level. I too wish I could do a container home - Have not watched a video on the 'Bries" so this should be very nice.
Duca and Roberta ... keep in mind the weight that you garden terrace will be because this can affect the supports that you will put on top of the shipping container. By the way ... Great job... Hello from Puerto Rico
Poxa.. o comentário de vcs com relação a soldar antes de instalar os revestimentos foi muito importante... Facilmente pode-se causar um incêndio no interior do container, se feito de forma contrária !! obrigado mais uma vez por compartilhar experiências conosco ! Abraço, Felipe @umloftparadois
I found you guys this afternoon. First at ll. Greettings from Argentina. I'm still trying to get the money to afford a similar project. In the meanwhile, I get some ideas of us. You're doing it so well. I like it!. Just let me place some Warnings about the green roof. According the house's orientation and the roof, you won't get as much sun as you can collect. (Entrace is on the South side, and, in Brazil ... Sun's path is always on the north side. So you need to place the plants higher. In that case... You need to contemplate extra weight for soil (about 60Kg per sqm - 30 cms deep ... most -vegetables- plants are ok with that amount-) And last... Windows are about 1,6 - 1,8 mt width. Does it?. So, If you place a 'terrace bench' you need to consider 'How hard it gonna be .. to plant seeds, harvest, or to replace a plant...on the sotuher-eastern corner' In a deep bench method it's recommended to make them 80cms to 120 cms widht (in case you can walk around all the sides). And, thanks for the idea about the deck roof. Hoping the best for U guys. Alejandro.
Thanks a lot for all the tips Alejandro. The green roof we are planning is actually on the other side, the north side of the house. On the entry roof we will not have a green roof. 👌🏼 about the weight we plan to have the roof on the top of a steel structure. But for now this are just plans. Hehehe we will focus now on the inside so we can move in as soon as possible. 😊😊 thanks a lot for the help!! See you tomorrow hehehe
Remove the remaining Container doors and create a huge window leading to a balcony outside. Have a stair case on the balcony leading to the roof deck. Just an idea.....
Just a welding question Eduardo. I notice you had the grounding clamp attched to the brackets as you welded them. Was that to give you something to hold them in position or were you unable to do the weld attaching the clamp elsewhere against the container? I ask as in my welding class I attach the clamp to the edge of the metal table. The block I place the job on is made of metal so the circuit can still be completed to get an arc. I guess I'm wondering if the size of the container affects the welding machine's ability to complete the circuit if the clamp isn't close...
It’s actually for both. It was an easy way to hold the brackets on place for the first tack weld. I’m pretty sure that if the ground is clamped too far away it can become a problem. Or I could have grind an area close to the spot, but I think it would be more work. Hope you could understand my confusing answer. Hehehe 😊
Thank you for the great videos. Suggestion: could the "brises" be removable for the winter months, or as a cover that could go from vertical to horizontal? Almost like a gazebo.
great job as always guys! about the green roof, i was last week in a study trip in Malmo, Sweden where they have a public policy to use as much as they can green roofs on buildings and we visited the department who studies different kinds of green roofs. I think i have some information (flyers) on my office, if you guys want, i can send to you. Keep the good work ;)
In his house no. Maybe if we one day build another one in a more remote place. This house is like 3 meters away from electric and sewer city grid and we talked to an specialized company that gave us a really expensive price to go off grid, so in this casa that we have everything available we are not going to have. 👌🏼
The cable idea seems like great idea, will give the roof a floating stlye- effect .. I'd be worried about cable snapping in the early or late future .. hate to have anyone under there when they snap. ;-{
Será que em vez de fazer este brise com ripas de madeira não seria interessante uns grandes painéis de sombrites? Se colocados fixos no chão, com uma distância das paredes, teriam um ótimo corredor que serviria também para montar uma horta. Algo assim (primeiro painel no canto superior esquerdo): br.pinterest.com/pin/221661612888481652/ Só que colocar sombrite de alta densidade em vez de lona. Se optarem por tubos PVC, mais econômicos, podem ser pintados.
Oi Amanda. Então a explicação é longa mas de maneira resumida acreditamos que o canal atinge mais gente sendo em inglês. Fora que adoramos conhecer pessoas de outros lugares, culturas, etc e dessa maneira estamos mais expostos à estas “oportunidades”. Esperamos que entendas. Mas no vídeo desta próxima segunda vamos falar de novidades em relação a esse tema! 👌🏼😊
Odd Life Crafting legal. Obrigada pelo retorno. Estou adorando os vídeos e espero um dia ter minha casa container. Sensacional a ideia de mostrar o passo a passo, possibilitando essa experiência legal para outras pessoas. Parabéns pelo trabalho.
Those pieces you welded onto the container wall in this video are called "brackets". I see you putting the ladders too steep. It's very very unsafe and uncomfortable to work when doing so. Maybe you can shorten the ladder and try putting it more vertical. Just a suggestion! 😉 @8:05 - 8:09 You are busy welding and Roberta is busy daydreaming 😂😂
Thanks you guys for the help. Some times is hard for us to remember the right word as English is not our mother language. Actually she was really tired hopping I finish quickly. Hehehehe. About the ladder we know it’s not the safest way but we are always really “carful” and ready to jump off in case it brakes. Hehehehe I always tell Roberta that as am former gymnast (I practiced gymnastics form 11-19yo) I won’t fall, and if I do I “know how to fall” heheheh
Boa noite... Estou fazendo minha casa em contêineres tb e tenho algumas ideias sobre meu telhado verde, se quiserem trocar experiências, mandem msg... Está ficando massa seu projeto.
looks great Your wielding is getting better.
Thanks! ☺️
I can not say enough positive things about you two. Great content, a pleasure to watch. Great work. Keep it up! Btw, loving the hand drawn visual aid.
Thanks a lot for the support Travis!!😊
Hi I'm from NZ love your container home build yes it's a lot cutting an welding as I'm a fitter welder an built something like yours .
☺️💕
After binge watching all you previous container house videos in the weekend I don't know how I will have to wait a whole week for each new episode :(
Hehehehe thanks a lot 😊😊 we wish we could be faster and produce more videos a week. But it’s just impossible for us right know unfortunately. Hope you understand!! See you next Monday!🤗
AbdelRahman El-Shikh I found myself in the same predicament when I found these two. Hahahaha. I am addicted ina healthy way. Hahah. Genuinely great channel. Pz to all.
Travis L. Desmadreson I think i would watch if they did a live stream while working :'D
Thanks a lot for the support!! That means a lot to us for sure!!
By the way I loved the stream idea. Hehehehe but you would need to be patient as we are really slow!!😂😂
I’m really enjoying watching your progress. I love your accents.
😊😊thanks a lot!!
Its so great to see how well you are planning ahead with things like the welding where many would just rush each step and not think of the risks like the heat of welding outside, transferring to the internal plate. Great work, cant wait to see the update next week!
Thanks a lot for the support Matt!! It means a lot!!😊😊
I`m in like 30 seconds of your video and already so excited to see what are you guys cooking up for us :)
Hehehehe thanks a lot. Hope you like it!!😊😊
you bet!
Very good Duca & Roberta. I couldn't wait to go home and watch this episode. So I cheated and watched it in my work break time. See you next Monday....
Hehehe thanks a lot!! See you next Monday!!🤗
Would be great to see a hidden drain for the green balcony.
That’s a huge challenge. 😊😊
You could totally do it. Look at what you've accomplished so far. Truthfully, it's all been challenging for you since you've never done a lot of that stuff before. :)
It’s true. Hehehehe we are always kind of lost in the beginning but somehow we always find our way out!! 😂😂
you to are great! Great watching.
😊 thanks a lot Tim!!
Meu, vcs são muito caprichosos!!! To vendo a série de vídeos de uma vez só, me divertindo!
Hehehe valeu!!
@@OddLifeCrafting Sucesso, queridos!
Valeu Tarcísio!!
Your getting a good handle on the welding now Duca, good idea to complete welding outside before doing the interior would like to mention that I did my cut outs with a plasma cutter have used one for many years find it easier than angle grinder at my age, quality cutters make very clean cuts with little dross which is easily removed ,keep up the good work, Garry
Thanks a lot for the support always Garry!! I’ve tried to find a affordable plasma cutter but I couldn’t unfortunately. 😏
I love the way you support each other
😊😍
Do you guys have a plan for what the inside will look like? What type of style?
Kind of have. But we still always changing our minds. 😊😊
You really plan and explain well, even tho I would do some things different, I love your HQ production,. More power to you!
😊😊👌🏼👌🏼
Desde España quería deciros que me encanta veros trabajar y espero alguna vez poder hacer un proyecto como el vuestro.
Muchas gracias por compartirlo con nosotros.

Muitíssimo obrigado!!😊😊
Following the episodes all the way from the south Pacific in Vanuatu. love the videos :-)
Thanks a lot!! You live in a really nice place for sure!! We spent a month in the south pacific in 2014. We loved!!
Recetemente vi um vídeo em um grupo de construtores em container, como nos, e ele soldou algo no lado de fora da casa e dentro já havia revestido com 3tc.

Então realmente a propaganda deles de não pegar fogo é verdadeira, hehehe. Obrigada por compartilhar.

Question: please give more specs when speaking about the materials used. What screws did you use to attach the studs to the metal container?
We talk about this screws in one of the videos about the studs

Duca and Roberta ... keep in mind the weight that you garden terrace will be because this can affect the supports that you will put on top of the shipping container. By the way ... Great job... Hello from Puerto Rico
👌🏼👌🏼 that’s we we welded so many supports. Just for this roof we have 9 supports plus a column on the future!!👌🏼

A porch! Lol i was wondering what a brise was!
Oh so not a porch...not sure what a brise would be in english...
We think they use brise, as it's a French word for something that is an architectural term
Thank you for the great videos. Suggestion: could the "brises" be removable for the winter months, or as a cover that could go from vertical to horizontal? Almost like a gazebo.
We thought about doing one that you can turn around each timber but we are not sure about it. 👌🏼😊
👍👍👍👌
👍🏻👍🏻👌🏼

Hey Joel for sure we you love the information. If you can send to oddlifecrafting@gmail.com. Thanks a lot!!😊😊
i will try to remember on monday when i get back to the office! ;) you welcome, my pleasure try to help.
👌🏼👌🏼 thanks a lot!!😊
do you plan to go offgrid? septic electric water and heating
In his house no. Maybe if we one day build another one in a more remote place. This house is like 3 meters away from electric and sewer city grid and we talked to an specialized company that gave us a really expensive price to go off grid, so in this casa that we have everything available we are not going to have. 👌🏼
Ohh water we do have a natural source right on the land so we will use that one.
The cable idea seems like great idea, will give the roof a floating stlye- effect .. I'd be worried about cable snapping in the early or late future .. hate to have anyone under there when they snap. ;-{
I guess if happens it won’t happen all 4 cables ate once. So it wouldn’t be a big problem. 👌🏼
Great video...you earned a Subscription from me...
Welcome!! 😊
Very good another video.....:)
😊 thanks a lot!
I hope l'll be the first one who will do first comment next week.
Hehehehe a tip we post around 12:30 UTC hehehehe
I am working at that time but l'll do my best next week....:)
Hehehehe👌🏼👌🏼 thanks a lot for the support!!
Ahhh. Getting it now. North is South for you!! Sorry, no offense, but I thought why are those silly guys putting a shade structure on the north wall‽
Será que em vez de fazer este brise com ripas de madeira não seria interessante uns grandes painéis de sombrites? Se colocados fixos no chão, com uma distância das paredes, teriam um ótimo corredor que serviria também para montar uma horta.
Algo assim (primeiro painel no canto superior esquerdo):

Só que colocar sombrite de alta densidade em vez de lona. Se optarem por tubos PVC, mais econômicos, podem ser pintados.
É uma opção. Ma adoramos a ideia do brise 😊😊
Pq vcs fazem os vídeos em inglês e não em Português?
Oi Amanda. Então a explicação é longa mas de maneira resumida acreditamos que o canal atinge mais gente sendo em inglês.

Steve123 I wonder if brise and breeze are connected.
Probably. Comes from french. They call brise soleil
What about the installation inside the shipping container you are planning to using it?
You mean insulation? Yes we will have. Next step framing and after that insulation. 👌🏼
You mean insulation? Yes we will have. Next step framing and after that insulation. 👌🏼
Oh! I mean what kind of insulation you will use it?
Fiberglass or PET wool. Not sure yet.
Why you don’t use insulation foam? It’s super insulation 👍
I can’t take you seriously with that Tshirt on your head !😂
Hehehehehe better like this than with burnt hair 😂😂😂👌🏼👌🏼

I've enjoyed your videos until this one. Why are you having a non-skip commercial for a house-flipping book/program up front?
I’m sorry Tim. That’s not our choice. TH-cam is the one that chooses the commercials we don’t control that. 😏
Hope you stick with us. 😊

10.33 min of talking and 3 min of filming. This is a pattern, I'm gone.
