I will build a container house using this guy's video. You're changing people's lives. Thanks, sir.
This video helped me a lot. I have been researching for about a year and worked construction 3 years. Drywall in a house cake but now that I have seen this, bro everything is square and those tracks are poifect
Yorkie with sun glasses...definitely a Florida boy 😂😂...great video thanks for the info
That shirt you are wearing is what is making you 10x hoter than it is. Nothing keeps you cool like cotton. I hat those shorts in the summer.
My ear explode every time the music drop...
Thanks for the tutorial XD
GREAT VID ... my brother is curently building a luxury hunting blind out of one of these and i just sent him your video to help him out finishing his project !
when he said 5 seconds to get that done 😂I love the sound that came after 😂dude u lyx
Nice work, I want to find a way to work with containers in the Caribbean, I'd always thought of the insulation being an issue because of its bulkiness to ship however the insulation you've used makes sense as it can be cost effective to ship that. One observation, when you put the roof runners for the insulation in before finishing the sheet rock to the walls, the result is now you'll have to add a top horizontal stud between the upright studs to catch the top of the sheet rock. Maybe you've addressed that in the following vids. Thanks for the guidance, very much appreciated.
I was curious regarding the air gaps left in the corrugations behind the insulation. Is that a problem down the line regarding moisture? Do you spray foam in the corrugations? Does that air gap serve any purpose?
I'd like to do spray foam but the spray foam is much more expensive in my area than insulation boards. I was happy to find this method of framing, it seems more budget friendly (and easier)
Your dog has a dope set of shades...
Love the animated logo and the cute little Doggo🐶🤗... This was very helpful thank you🙏🏿
Do you screw frame studs to the container walls?
So what is holding the track in place? The force of the perpendicular walls and the ceiling?
Record the room with only the fan going, then in your audio select that track to be removed on all future tracks. Then you wont need to turn off your fan. The audio software will remove it.
scored a like just for the yorkie..
Last question from me (today): How are you fastening top/toe plates to the container? Are you using sheet metal screws?
Trevor Martin they are actually just free standing, then when the ceiling framing goes in place that ties it all together. We just didn’t want to penetrate the roof in anyway
I have a question in regards to if this container home was going to a colder climate. Would it be better to use a spray in foam insulation so as to prevent moisture between the exterior steel and the interior wall? From what I understand it would be detrimental to get moisture in that area of the wall. Your thoughts on this please. That you
How are things looking now?
You need to mind the spoken track levels and your music levels. They should be set to -6db so when im done listening to your quiet voice track you dont have instrumental blasting in my face.
The video was supremely helpful tho.
What is the thickness of your plywood sub floor? Thanks for all the detail and tips. Nice
What about the gap between the installation and the container that's at least a half inch gap
how is the frame fixed to the container itself? is it just fixed to the plywood floor which is screwed into the plywood sub-floor? how is it fixed to the top of the container?
Kev Lowe’s has them online
Screwed into floor. the other tracks dont have to be screwed to ceiling because the studs will hold it up.
Quick question did you attach the framing to the container or is it just free floating held up by itself?
If you want to mount your tv, will this be strong enough to support or would you have to add more support beams?
Can you please list all the tools for framing the containers
So are you affixing any parts of the steel studding to the container itself? Or is all the framing floating within the container?
Thanks,
Adam
Frustrating that he doesn't address this in the video.
@@mmuller794 yeah good info but I’d like a bit more detail.
Hi! Amazing videos, thank you! Can I ask... why do you use metal framing rather than normal wood studs? Did re-watch the tutorial to see if you mentioned it, but not sure you did? 😀
Jack Chamberlain -- some times the metal studs are us because they already have holes or knockouts so it's faster to put your water hose for sinks bathroom and then there's the electrical wires anything and everything you need with wood stud you will have to make holes more time consuming that would be my best bet.
To add to that. Steel studs are usually lighter (depending on the gauge of steel used) and are always straight. Plus you don’t have to worry about termites or wood rot.
Would have love to know how many length of aluminum was needed to frame this container
Two things I noticed you didn’t attach metal studs to container my guess it’s it own frame work and doesn’t need support, like on typical house framing the out side sheeting works as ridged support.
The other is or climate we go from 17* winter to 90* in summer, an I’ve heard that containers can sweat, is it better to spray foam to prevent that?
closed cell foam

His reply to another question like yours
Lower the volume of the music, I have to turn it up when you speak and down when the music starts
Are you screwing in the bottom and top tracks to the container before you put the studs in? If so are the screws going all the way through penetrating the outside of the container?
I was in my car and the music blew my drums! Lol
How did you screw the track to the metal to prevent future weather damage?
Studs don't have to be spaced 16" apart since they are non-load bearing. You can save a ton of construction costs by increasing this distance.
Wait, what… Those 16” studs are supporting the ceiling
@@therealyungjayzI think bc the container itself is doing most of the load bearing you probably only have to worry about support in places where the windows were cut out. Lmk what u think 👌🏾
Can I use my own wood for the interior and/or exterior framing?
How do you attach studs to the wall?
Are you using spray foam between your container walls and your insulation board?
We determined that it’s more cost effective to use spray foam and then we met the energy code as well in Colorado
I'm not sure but ,if anyone else needs to find out about shipping container home plans try Container Recovery Tactics (container.RecoveryTactics.com ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my friend got amazing results with it.
What size studs are you using?
where did you buy the studs and track and what are the dimensions
How far from the ceiling do you install the track?
I saw the article and was hoping to find a comprehensive book and materials source. I don’t do well with videos or computers.
The article itself was reference to videos. Anyone know of a book? The ones I found on Amazon were worthless.
Since the interior framing isn't taking any kind of significant structural load, is it really necessary to do 16" OC framing? With 24" OC, there are fewer studs (less money) and fewer places where the metal is conducting heat through the wall (less money over time). And that's the bigger problem with steel framing: heat conduction so bad that it can almost negate the benefits of the insulation. It would seem that, to a point, the fewer the studs the better.
the studs don't touch the outside the insulation is inbetween the studs and the outside wall.
the interior wall is free standing I think
Can you use wood frames? I remember a few years ago, before container houses were popular, people were using wood to frame because there was no set protocol. I was just wondering if wood is still used or is steel now required. If both can be used, is steel framing just as cheap/inexpensive as wood, now?
vidiesel -- I haven't work on a container but I believe you could use both wood or metal studs but one thing I'm sure metal studs are a little more expensive but not by much but if you figure wen dealing with wood stud you have to check that they are straight you won't want bend studs all over your built and then there's the drilling of holes for wiring,water hoses for sinks and what ever else your planing to put now metals studs already come with knockout holes way faster to work with and all you need is a Straight-Cut Aviation snip and you don't have to be going back and forth to cut like you would with wood studs were you have to be going back and forth to cut out side again time consuming hope I shine a little light to your question.
How did you fix the framing under the roof without perforating the insulation?
Yes, could you please explain that?
The frame is only attached to the wall and the floor. Leave just enough room to slide the insulation on top of the frame.
i have a question since the height is 8' or 9.5' i need your technical expertise if i cut another container in half and weld it on top of this one for example and take the bottom container roof cut out so now we have around 12" ft height if we do that do we have enough strength we meet the criteria required by the state
is insulation board there instead of other insulation (say Fibreglass insulation) or as well as other insulation?
Nice cat dude ;)
What about condensation?
THE most important tip you completely missed is, BUILD IN THE FALL OR SPRING!
The build is in Florida is like summer all year long , the only problem is the rain .
@@treffle17 It was a joke. I lived in Florida for 14 years. It's definitely not summer "all year long".
Is it necessary to do 16" on center? Can I do 24" on center since the container itself is structural?
You can do 16 or 24
@@michaele.7115 I mean, I just don’t see a reason to do 16”. This isn’t really structural. The container is the structure. So this isn’t really framing. It’s just something to screw drywall to and makes space to run electrical and plumbing, right?
@@grandpixel 5/8 drywall minimum for 24 centers, 1/2 will bow and warp on 24 inch center, if thats ok then try it for yourself.
Are you using special screws? We're having a difficult time screwing ours together, and I'm not certain what the issue is.
Self tapping is needed
Is there a vent to allow the house to breathe? 👍
Great video and love your Yorkie, so adorable!
Love your videos brother. Curious if the studs are screwed directly into the container metal is there not a concern for water leakage?
Wicked username
Great videos man. I have been trying to figure out what are you attaching the top track of the framing to? Can you explain how is the top track attached? Did you use screws or did you use any welding?
Gerardo Laboy so on the metal framing we actually didn’t attach the top track to anything, we just put some braces in to hold it until we framed the ceiling so the ceiling is holding the wall level and the wall is holding the ceiling since everything is framed tight
@@ContainingLuxury Thanks a lot for the answer. your work is awesome
Why you have not installed the insulation between the frames? There are ways to insulate the frames for the exterior walls. Using a heat reflective paint on the wall and roof of the container is a very efficient way to insulate against heat.I have used these paints only as insulation on containers in the Australian tropics.
What is the paint your using and if I may ask, how does it help? Learning so please forgive my ignorance...
your so funny but question can you do a container one by one then add them later
Does that act as a moisture barrier as well
How is the top track connected?
From what I can tell you can push on the window from outside the container and you can shake the interior aluminum stud wall the windows should be attached to the container itself the window can handle a 180 mile-an-hour item being thrown at it but the wall that is attached to can't
Where did you get your metal studs from??
Many thanks, been searching for "how much do old shipping containers cost?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Panophia Nonpareil Principality - (should be on google have a look ) ? It is a good exclusive product for discovering how to build a shipping container home fast minus the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my friend got amazing success with it.
Home Depot, Lowes, Grainger
@@traveler1820 they don't carry 1.5x1.5 metal studs at hd or lowes maybe grainger
how is that top piece attached to the container?
loving your videos...but your your 'music' is too loud....or your voice is too weak...
ijustdoit2000 yeah we upgraded our video shooting so the new videos should be more on point! These were all our first videos, learning process :)
Nice videos, I have watched them all so far, one question about framing, where do you get your supply and what are the dimensions, I looked at Lowe's (Online) and the smallest they have is 2.5" and yours looks smaller. Thank you for providing all this information.
I believe it's 1 5/8" metal studs. Look for a metal stud supply house around your area. I use Lynwood in San Antonio TX as they are 1/2 the price of the big box stores.
@@gabrielzsanchez I'm in San Antonio and hoping I can build my own small container home, but first need get a small piece of CHEAP land in Adkins or China Grove area first, but everything is so expensive! I hope a hidden gem will come my way, so I can look into designing and building my dream home.
PerpetualMotion I have to agree with you. I remember when an acre would cost about 3-5k. Ever since the huge migration of Californians, everything has skyrocketed. I bought two acres in the south side back in 2016 inside the city for 75k. I’m now seeing 1/2 an acre for the same price.
@@kornbreadsanchez You were very wise to have bought your land when you did. I wish I would have been looking back then, but I was pretty happy in my apartment until new owner took over in 2017 and now in total decline. I would move, but that's so expensive and don't want to waste my money for another apartment, so still holding out hope that I will find the land of my dreams.
Its 2-1/2 x 1-1/4 studs
how wide is the inside after everything is isntalled ? insolatioin studs drywall etc..
Depending on the website, I have seen official interior specs from 2311 mm = 7'7" (Wikipedia) to 2352 mm = 7'8-5/8" (Iso spec). Also, the official spec allow a -5 mm variation. Based on one of the videos, he said,
1" insulation board
1-5/8" steel stud
1/2" sheetrock (drywall)
Total = 3-1/8"
So worst case is 7'7" - 2*(3&1/8) = 7'0-3/4"
porta-cool thats all you need, whats 2 grand for guys like you.
PLEASE stop using the BASS music, it's horrible having to turn down the sound every time!! the electric sounds are fine:)
I can't find those aluminum studs and tracks on Home depot site. Can you throw me a link, please? Thank you.
I know he references "aluminum framing" in the write-up, but they look more like light-gauge steel studs with a galvanized finish, which is what Home Depot would carry (I've never seen aluminum studs offered anywhere, only light-gauge steel). You wouldn't want aluminum anyway due to Galvanic Effect concerns wherever aluminum contacts steel (like the screws he's using). And you don't have to rely on Home Depot. Some sheet metal companies sell to the public; you just want to find a company that doesn't just sell sheets and coils, but also make galvanized studs. Their product will sometimes be superior, with the option to go with a heavier gauge, if desired. Googling is the best way to find your source.
Listen up to story about a a blue man in a blue world sorry the yo just sounded like the beginning of the song
Haha true
What song is your intro song beat?
How much would you say the metal framing costs for the 40ft? I have been debating using In So Fast on ours.
Platinum Promo & Media Co. sorry for the delay! It was roughly $500 total
Blake Madgett where did you source that metal framing? What are the dimensions of it?
@@bmadgett85 Damn that's so cheap!
PLEASE MATCH THE VOLUME OF THE MUSIC TO THE DIALOGUE
What about condensation?
Gunsmokecontainsuperokthreecoolnineballcool😅😅
nice video but audio needs work. I can barely here You but the music blows out my speakers . NOT COOL
La perrita no es tuya verdad,? Está linda,
Why not use wood framing
Termites n mold
Should have bought containers from shippingcontainerhomes.com.. $1,500 for a 40ft container and comes with or without a rooftop camper like ac unit for no extra charge ;) at the very least you could sell the ac unit but personally i would just use it lol, anyways hope that helps man!
If you were in a damp climate would Dampness from at the back of the insulation when there is a cavity there

Your editor needs to chill with the LOUD MUSIC. The levels should be same as your voice. This is a problem with every one of your videos.
God dam. Pick a volume dude. Your voice is quiet and the music dam near blows my speakers

that music is obnoxious .
Too much talking dude
Horrible. Hack amateur hour. Sorry to see so many people had to endure this. Have you ever actually built anything before? Aside from the fact you can't make videos or give clear instructions the entire idea of using containers to live in is absurd. METAL containers are horrible for many, many reasons. All containers are 8 feet wide - to that add insulation and framing and whatever else you plan on putting on the inside and you are down to under 8 feet wide. Have a look at a refrigerated container which is about 7 feet wide and you get a clearer picture. Better yet, have a look at a jail cell and you quickly realize how idiotic it is to try and use a container for living space. Containers were purpose built to be containers. When you start cutting walls and adding or subtracting things you weaken the structure. They do not breathe. They are metal and they will rust/rot. Running electrical is a joke. Running plumbing, ventilation, condensation on the inside of the container. Containers are NOT inexpensive! If you buy a used one ($2-3000) you can be assured that it has had toxic material in it during the average 20+ year lifespan. Buy one new and you are paying top dollar ($5-6000) for a metal box you plan on cutting up and redesigning. You could buy more than enough lumber and build the SAME square footage for a fraction of the cost of a bare container. Shipping them from point A to B is not cheap either. Very stupid idea. They are great for storing and shipping things overseas. Why not try that? Overall just a really dumb idea and video and poor presentation at that.
