That's a good looking finished project there .
But ,, I've often wondered what the actual cost is to build with containers. Because once you cut out a wall ,, or a window ,, you weaken the structurability of the containers. Then you're having to add extra headers ,,and or steel beams to carry the loads . Then factor in the cost of a welder .
I was in Texas a few yrs ago ,, staying at a beach house ,, and they were building a house using a few containers . I walked thru looking at the build ,, and the work involved in rebuilding the structurability ,, time ,, materials and labor ,,, versus standard stick framing ,, looked to be far more expensive.
But if you want a novelty type project,, I guess it's OK.
