This is the first video that popped up for my search. I don’t need to go any further. Thanks for the help!! Love the spray insulation and flat panel LED lights.
Wow! I just learned how one man could hang ceiling plywood on his own with very little difficulty. I mean, I know it's work in of itself. Spot on mate! You made that look amazingly easy!
Good Vid. Warm in winter and cool in summer. You have the best of both worlds with insulation. One other thing i would do is paint it white inside. It would make a massive difference to your lighting.
So many people forget about using story sticks when building and miss out on how much faster it makes things , loved the whole build and your attention to detail 👍
A vertical or horizontal stick with marks for each component, the vertical one for the container would be along the lines of a line at floor level, then batten thickness, OSB, open space then ceiling height, ceiling thickness, batten, spray foam, metal... Basically a cross section drawing but just using measurements for quick reference.
Another well executed, excellent job. I’m disappointed by some of the critiques in the comments section. Next time your in Texas- I need help with a cattle chute and a barn. I do not however, own any Festool.
Cheers graham, Its been a fun project.... thinking it through in my head was certainly a lot easier than actually doing it... kinda negleted to remember it was 40' long when i go, " and then ill just batten it and board it " in my head haha
A couple of decades ago, I was shown a workshop where a chap made kitchen cabinets in two 20' containers end to end. Raw materials in one end cabinets out the other. It wasn't anywhere near as nice as this "storage room". Cheers, David
Excelleny video, I plan to do something similar and you gave me some great ideas on how to do some of the difficult things by myself. I plan to frame using 2x4's 1/2' away from the metal channel so the wood never makes contact with the metal. My end goal is to have 3-4" of spray foam (depending on the peaks and valleys of the steel) and 6-7" spray foam in the ceiling.
Thats what ive done, the timbers sit away from the metal everywhere. 2x2 was enough to be honest. if you orientate them so the bow of the timber is outwards, you can use a screw throught he timber to jack it away fromt he steel sides into a straight. 3-4" is a Lot!! whats it for? the 1" ive got really makes a huuuge difference and cant imagine youd need much more.
BRADSHAW JOINERY I figured I need 2” min to meet the r13 code, but r20-30 can’t hurt. The research I’ve done seems to push the 2” min to ensure I don’t get condensation, I’m in FL so we are humid as hell. Maybe I’ll go with 2x3s so it’s right in the middle.
@@jtr82369 if you haven't already bought your materials I would suggest looking into HuberWood products, more specifically the Zip System sheathing. They have 4'x8', 4'x9' and 4'x10' standard sheets (brown) as well as insulated sheathing (green) with R3, R6, R9, or R12 ratings. I'll put a link in the next comment or you can Google it if YT zaps the link. They have a full product line that seals up tight as a drum. I hadn't thought of using inside a container, but after considering the cost of spray foam and any fitment issues with it I think I'll be using Zip myself. If you already built yours out I'd like to hear how you did it.
@@BradshawJoinery Storage containers can make great tiny homes as well. I particularly liked how you planned the sheathing so that it was easy for one person to install. UA-cam recently place you on my feeds, and I am so thankful for this. You are a wonderful craftsman.
Ply would be nice, but plywood at the cheaper end of the spectrum has poor face quality/thickness so the osb is much more durable i think. Also alos cheaper
Yeah especially with the lights so he wont have to sit in a Dark container. Now he just needs a good chair and mounted T.V. and a good kitchenette for coffee making, he can sit out any down pour
Best. Video. Tutorial. Eevvvveeeerrrr!! 👏🏾 we want to do this in the 45 footer we just purchased, but would you mind sharing how much it all cost (minus the container, of course, lol)?
@bradshawjoinery Love the video! That’s some serious work! Looking to do this here in Ireland but just wondered if there should be air vents to let the air flow and regulate the temperature?
Loved this video! I need to spray foam my container just like you did but I'm not sure if I should hire someone or buy a kit myself. Was there any reason you got someone in, does them mixing it and spraying through their gun make it stronger or would a DIY kit hold the timber level just as effective or good enough? Thanks a lot Brad!
You want to paint the roof of the container a light beige color that reflects the sun's UV light. In Houston I bought a light beige car and it was cooler than any white painted car. Much cooler.
I know this was a year ago, but I was wondering about what was done for ventilation. I don't have to worry about moisture so much (I'm in the CA desert), but interested in how folks are adding ventilation to the container.
HI Mr Bradshaw Forget using paint on the roof of the container .I have been selling used shipping containers for 35 years and the best way to protect the roof and make it watertight is cold solar reflective bitumen paint. Apply with a roller and periodically clean the roof with a power washer that way you will prevent any corrosion The roof is the weakest part of the container so needs more care than the rest from the elements.
Hi Phil, Could you name a suitable product and application method? Is it just a one product coating or primer/bitumen layer? Don't post a link as youtube deletes comments with links without telling you.
Its perfect with the foam sprayed onto the metalwork there will be no condensation. Its always different temp inside, so hot day its cooler, and visa versa. Its brilliant.
Thanks Bruce, ive had the container about 18months now, Its been a nice environment so far, i run a dehumidifier in there, not because there was a problem but im using it to acclimatize timber before use. Ill look up the paint, thanks
Great vid as always. If you'd planned that amazing energy saving way of doing the ceiling.. Then bravo, because that was a stroke of genius! If it was a fluke.. You're a jammy sod 😉
Thank you for your professional work. It looks really cool and neet. I have a question about your drills. How to drill holes in the metal container. I think the metal the container is made of is very strong iron. I can see you using 2 different drills. One for the wooden and another for the container. I can not find them in Denmark (Europe), where I live. Therefore I would be happy if you could help me :)
i didnt drill into the container atall with exception of the frames on the doors, i screwed the timber frames directly to the door backs here. Otherwise i just used a screw through the timber to act like a jack pushing the timber away from the sides. See my latest video on the question and answers about the container for more info
Army green Huh ! seen enough of them in my day, :D nice use of the forklift to put in the ceiling plates well done, that's using yur noggin lad , get a anti theft lock box welded onto the centre stile , padlocks on the locking arms can be chopped off in seconds and any goodies inside gone in minutes, DAMHIKT ! :(( neatly done on the electrics too. Karl
Just asking why the foam insulation? Would celotex insulation between the studs and airflow behind work? Or would it cause damp? Top job and very efficient by the way 👍
not really, any gaps between insulation and steel will create a temperature difference ont he inner steel surface which will condensate at certain temps.
It was too expensive for storage. the air cavity behind the board will help a little but the ain purpose was condensation control and to anchor the timbers in place without through fixings.
@@BradshawJoinery Hi, I hope that insulation helped for condensation? Am I right? Cause I want to spray at least 10 cm, while you have around 5 cm? Thanx for answer.
Interesting build, but I would have put a vapor barrier between the container and insulation. Steel containers in hot and cold climates cause a lot of condensation, and the foam will trap that condensation and eventually cause rot on the lumber and cause mold.
By vapour barrier i am assuming you mean sheet plastic, please do not, plasstic will attract the moisture especially where there is air cavity/sealed. this technique i have used removes condensation from the steel internal through insulation and encapsulated the timber. The foam is also a vapour barier
@@BradshawJoinery Your foam must be closed-cell then as open-cell will not act as a vapour barrier. If anything, I would maybe have a membrane on top of the insulation, but moisture permeable, so it is airtight, but any moisture happens to get in there, then it can come back out again.
Best thing I ever did! Super dry luxury storage. Need a few more now! I've added a radiator so I can acclimatize my timber to "in house" humitidy. It's working brilliantly
They screwed through the wood frames but only hit the walls, not going through them. I used them like jack's to position the frames level and hold while the spray foam was done
Can anyone tell me the what's the track playing at 11:35? As for the build: - What's the average winter temperature and humidity in the area you live in? - What type of foam did you use? - How thick (approx.) is the foam layer? Why have you seft a gap between the foam and the woodboads? Is this space designed for cables? Very neat, clean and skilled build, this kind of work is a pleasure to observe.
Hi, thankyou. I think it was a track from Google royalty free track but cannot remember! Winter it can get as low as -10 but only very rarely. Settles around 0-5 degrees I would say. It's a closed cell 2 component foam. The gap is because I only wanted 1" insulation. The air gap will help with insulation also, aswell as easing cable installation.
Hey, great video! if i was to use your method using screws as jacks, what do you think will happen when i cut out an opening for a door/window? Also framing the door and window would you use the same technique for the studs and snoggings (not touching the frame and using screws as jacks?) thanks! great video. learned a lot

The convertion build of this container was amazing
Good Vid. Warm in winter and cool in summer. You have the best of both worlds with insulation. One other thing i would do is paint it white inside. It would make a massive difference to your lighting.
Cheers Fergie, yeah it's a real nice space tbh! Doesn't need the paint I don't think, it's just a storage space and ample light with the 4 fittings!
I like the way you did the floor. The whole build out is clean and simple.
Cheers Alan, its working a treat i will do an update video at somepoint
Fantastic job🙌 masterful planning and use of the fork lift to slide the OSB ceiling panels in 👌
Cheers mate, Yes i baked my noodle as to how to get 18mm OSB on the ceiling. Worked a treat! haha
You Sir, are an absolute genius!!!
Haha cheers Dougie!!!
As we say in the states, you're a beast! Awesome work! Great tips and gotchas!
Cheers Marcos! Pleased to have helped 👌👌
So many people forget about using story sticks when building and miss out on how much faster it makes things , loved the whole build and your attention to detail 👍
Cheers buddy. :) yes rods and setting out very important
What’s a story stick
A vertical or horizontal stick with marks for each component, the vertical one for the container would be along the lines of a line at floor level, then batten thickness, OSB, open space then ceiling height, ceiling thickness, batten, spray foam, metal...
Basically a cross section drawing but just using measurements for quick reference.
I’ve watched this twice. Gonna use this on my 20 footer. Thanks RT
No worries, its been fantastic so i fully reccomend it

endless possibilities. exactly what I was needing, time to talk to the ramp builders!!
Awesome, good luck
Well .... that was a joy to watch.
Keep 'er lit Bro!
Cheers Ivan! :)
Very Well Done! The only thing I'd do different is drill the holes for the wiring before I sprayed the foam so that I had more room for the drill.
Yeah good idea!!

Very nice job 👍👍 ingenious way you sheeted the roof. Some time and money gone into that. Great job!

@@BradshawJoinery that makes sense. Thanks.
I heard it’s best the cavity isn’t fully filled so that the cold air does not transfer over as easy. There’s lots of different theories out there.
@@BradshawJoinery Hi, I hope that insulation helped for condensation? Am I right? Cause I want to spray at least 10 cm, while you have around 5 cm? Thanx for answer.
Yes, 2.5cm will be enough for condensation. It works brilliantly!

excelente trabajo saludos from chile
Hey Marcos from Chile, thank you Very much for the kind words!
Can anyone tell me the what's the track playing at 11:35?
As for the build:
- What's the average winter temperature and humidity in the area you live in?
- What type of foam did you use?
- How thick (approx.) is the foam layer? Why have you seft a gap between the foam and the woodboads? Is this space designed for cables?
Very neat, clean and skilled build, this kind of work is a pleasure to observe.
Hi, thankyou.
I think it was a track from Google royalty free track but cannot remember!
Winter it can get as low as -10 but only very rarely. Settles around 0-5 degrees I would say.
It's a closed cell 2 component foam.
The gap is because I only wanted 1" insulation. The air gap will help with insulation also, aswell as easing cable installation.
Hey, great video! if i was to use your method using screws as jacks, what do you think will happen when i cut out an opening for a door/window? Also framing the door and window would you use the same technique for the studs and snoggings (not touching the frame and using screws as jacks?) thanks! great video. learned a lot
The screws put very little pressure on the steel as the timber sections are so small. Just make sure they all bow outwards.
I'd make a steel welded return and sit the window in this. Spray foam edge of window to next stud.
How much did that cost you in wood and spray foam insulation to do? Did you really need to go this thick of particle board?
