Containers are precision made under International standards. They are never twisted or bent. If they are, that's why they have been discontinued from the "container" use.
Dude why are you covering the front edge with your left hand after you finished the install if the corner bead? I wantrd to see the edge to see if the 3 piece stacked looked like?
I'm thinking a four x four timber, 10' long maybe, a pivot block (fulcrum), blocking of various sizes, one side up, then the other, not too high, as you said. Up two inches at a time, sturdy blocking, and won't be long afore it's in the air. Here in NW Lower Michigan, it's a good idea to be up at least a foot or so to discourage wildlife from taking up residence under the unit - especially skunks - they love living under buildings. Thank you. Blessings to you and yours.
I know I’m late but here’s my idea: I had an rc boat that you could take the top off of which was basically to keep water out/look cool, so what if you found one like that and took the top off and then used silicone or something to mount it directly to the bottom so you don’t have to cut into it. Also have you thought of putting it on a small tether and driving in circles so it doesn’t float away?
I always thought I didn’t want to make homemade biltong because I thought it would be too hard. Your tutorial was so easy to follow, I felt more confident and started making my box. Can’t wait to see the results.
If you have two railroad ties waiting when your container is delivered you can place the container end on the first, drive forward then place the opposite container end on the second. Ties permit sufficient ventilation below the container and place the container high enough for future jacking if shimming is found useful to level the box. If you have room, buy a forty foot or longer High Cube as the little 20s are "cute" but terribly limiting and their low ceiling height an annoyance. OTOH High Cubes permit hanging heavy duty shelving (easy to fabricate) from the interior tiedown loops on the ceiling corners. If you want power the easy way is have a pole placed with an outdoor circuit breaker panel and both 120 and 240V outdoor receptacles (if in US) or whatever is standard elsewhere. I did that before building my shops and it makes the structure immediately usable as a workshop.
