Thank you for sharing on Xmas, some of us find this time of year really difficult and this is a beautiful distraction and inspiring. Can't wait to see what you create in this amazing space. Cheers from Colorado 🪅🎄
Use aircraft wire from HF to hold the door open. You have those vertical rails, attach them to the highest point, then put an eyelet and use a heavy duty carabiner to clip them on. So you use the rams to lift it, then clip the wires on. It is really cheap to do something like this. I have like 25 bucks into some support straps I needed to make for my shed.
The paint on the inside wasn't too thin. It was either too cold to be painting or overnight it got cold or it was just applied too heavy. You can get a Zahn cup to measure the viscosity. Then you just look up in the manual or a similar sprayer for what tip they recommend based on how long it takes the Zahn cup to break its steady stream. I really only use it until I get to know how the paint is. After that, its fairly easy to repeat. With your mixing stick, pull it out of the paint and sign your name with run off. You will see it sit on top of the surface for a second and melt in slowly when its uncut. Once you thin it with a little water, the surface tension is less and it normalizes faster. Use the cup a few times to get you where you should be and then test out what I am talking about with trying to "write" something in the paint with the stirring stick drippings. Pancake batter is kind of what I shoot for. Thick chocolate milk if the spray nozzle is really small.
Awesome build. You should make the mechanical safety for that door a high priority, though. Oh, and your diagonal brace on the end door is the wrong way. 😀 Generally, diagonal braces on gates, doors etc should run from the bottom of the hinge side up towards the top of the free hanging side as that's the diagonal that wants to get shorter as the door sags. Although, in this application it probably doesn't matter.
Great project and well executed. Hope it works for you and if you ever decide to move house at least you know you can bring your workshop with you! Are you going to weather seal the doors? Have a super 2025!
Since you have small children, please add mechanical stops to support the weight of the hinge-opening side. I would suggest something that functions similarly to how a hood prop-rod works, but with clevis pins at both ends so that if the wind grabs the opened side and lifts it temporarily it doesn't cause the supports to fall out before the wind lets go of the side again.
Big door is sagging in the middle. needs bracing which will add weight. By watching the cylinders struggle with door as is you may want to consider hydraulic
Very cool setup. I would do this just to get an editing space away from all the kids and noise in my house! haha. Its so hard to focus being in the main room trying to edit.
And that’s not a rude thing either, id rather not be around them if im trying to work on something like editing then be there in the room but not paying attention
@@OverlandUnderBudget Exactly. I hate feeling like I'm ignoring people. But the reality is I'm a terrible multi tasker especially with noises and voices. If 2 people talk I hear neither of them. Then I get nothing done and still ignored someone😅
Gran trabajo, tú forma de acometer los proyectos me resulta muy inspirador, el emplazamiento de mi casa dentro mi terreno también me condiciona bastante a la hora de hacer algún tipo de construcción
@@OverlandUnderBudgetit also would be cool to try a counter weight on the top edge of the door like a smoker. 🍗 might speed up the opening time and take some of the load off of the pneumatic pistons.
Hope the lack of toe-kick under the toolboxes isn't going to be a problem. With the height of the rollaways I can see why you omitted one, but when I've had to work at counters without toe-kicks it isn't pleasant.
That’s funny! I didn’t think of that toe kick, so maybe that won’t be an issue for me. It was overall hight that i wanted to make a priority. The lowest drawer was something I was thinking might be annoying but so far it’s not
I am an engineer, this is such a cool project ! I would have reinforced the inside of the wall with some steel tubing structure, you can see the bending moment in the middle of it when you open it, I wonder why you didnt do that
Hey thanks! Which wall exactly? The main door that opens? Or the roof line where the door attaches? I think when I add the pitch roof I’ll add some tresses to the span the door attaches too.
@@OverlandUnderBudget Yeah I think some triangular trusses on the main long door would help, you could also do some sort of wire pull assist from the top. The majority of the bending is happening at the center, closer to the ground portion of that wall from what I can see. Anyway I do rocket engines and not shipping containers so I hope this not so technical advice helps lmao
For power, I’d like to add small power pole, like a rv hook up almost right at the back of the container. But im all working on solar and a lithium house battery option to
That's cool but the BIG door needs some kind of ratchet lock system on both sides because the door drop would be like a car crash.
Yes sir! Planing a support
Yikes someone didn’t watch the full vid.
@ he literally adresses this in the video my guy
@@itzbishop5256 What if we stopped trusting struts to lock things?
@ someone get this guy a helmet
Your creativity is key. Its the co-sign of your channel. ....keep thinking and keep sharing. 💯👍
Oh thank you! Appreciate that, Merry Christmas!
So dope. The use of the skateboard was cracking me up 😂
Wow, that looks nice. My hat Off to a young man.
Well thank you sir! I appreciate that, merry Christmas!

Ah absolutely! Merry Christmas, if you can’t be around family and loved ones, hopefully you can get some time enjoy nature or get outside
Merry Christmas Jason!

How cool is that! That is a great idea
You make it look EASY lol ,but very cool, your a talented man
Thanks man, merry Christmas!
Thats awesome! I may do this on my shipping container!
Awesome work! Glad to see more UA-cam videos
Thats a dang cool shop you built
Very cool.
Nice! I like how this turned out! I might have to try it one day!
Watching from Vancouver Island 🏝️🇨🇦👍
ah man, this looks super good!
I'm pumped to finally have a work place!
Watched the whole thing. Ended up looking great, good job! Merry christmas! much love from Argentina ♥
The comment about the door ratcheting lock/hold open is spot on. Please do for safety.
Skateboard dolly is a necessity - killed it on the build 🧰👊
Are you going to do a rooftop patio/deck? Would be cool to chill and hangout up there after doing the work.
Ha it would! So many options. Unfortunately I have overhead power lines that would limit that. But if I moved it to a different location 👍
Looks great, your such a clever little beaver, merry Christmas to you and your family
Awesome build, I’m glad you’re gonna put in a secondary safety system, that door would definitely give me anxiety. Keep up the good work man
a drop down pole from the door to help support the weight so it isnt all on the hinges would be a nice touch
First time viewer here and definitely subbing. You’re going to blow up soon (not literally)! Lol
The most creative way to use a skateboard! Such a rad video.
That turned out really nice
BIG inspiration. Great build, buddy!
Thanks Bryce! Your film making is pure inspo to me. We need to get a trip in!
Pretty dang Sicmods bro! 😎
Happy Holidays from Wisconsin
Merry Christmas to you too, and Happy New Year!

Great design sir. Retractable air hose and extension cord reels? Nice tool boxes and work bench. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to some builds

Yes sir! I think I forgot to include a clip of me talking about that. 100% planning a brace that can be in place while open

Wouldn’t hurt to put some kind of brace across the bottom edge of the door to prevent that sagging in the middle
100% I want to add that. Thinking a triangular brace, with the high point in the middle.
@@OverlandUnderBudget I also wondering if you thought about an electric winch and cable set up to open and close that large door.

When that door gives way. I feel sorry for whoever is in the way

That door is SOLID!

You built a tool shed. A shop has room for vehicles, equipment, ORV's etc.
Very nice build, did you run separate power source for shop? Or from house? Was zoning a nightmare? Thanks 🎄

I dont mean to be rude but i think its time to move into a bigger home
What a joke. You threw a bunch of money at something. Anyone could use that much space and make projects all day long. Just a vanity piece for clicks.
