Interior TRANSFORMATION of a Shipping Container TINY HOME 

When vac'ing drywall dust i highly recommend putting a bag in the shop vac. I started doing this and it dramatically reduces filter clogging meaning the vac maintains suction for much long. I also feel like it does a better job keeping dust inside rather than possibly blowing some back out.

We can't wait for the Collab video to come out! It was so much fun working with y'all:) Everyone prepare for a good time because it was a goofy week full of laughter!

I love the fact that you put all of this in one video. I've seen other RU-vidrs stretch this sort of thing out over several weeks so it is appreciated. 😀

Just a little tip for the next time you go out to view the northern lights or a meteor shower. You need to find your viewing spot about a half hour before you want to view and just sit in the darkness without any artificial lights or screens. This will allow your eyes to dark adapt.

Someone else may have already made this comment, but since I haven't read through any of the previous 384 comments, here goes. A trick to filling screw holes easier, faster, & with much less sanding is to put a dab of mud on a corner of a 6" trowel & swiping across 4' sections of screws @ one time rather than filling each one separately. It takes about 1/4 the time & you don't have a splotch of mud around each screw dimple to sand off. Simply swipe down the middle of a row of screws, then swipe any extra mud from both edges. I can normally get the 3-4 layers of mud it takes to completely fill the screw dimples without ever having to sand between layers. Oh, one more thing. ALWAYS use vacuum bags in your shop vacs, whether it's in your drywall sanding vac or your standard shop vac. As long as you're using them on dry products, you'll never have to replace a filter again or need to clean out the tub & you'll have very little dust while using it or when dumping the vac into the trash.

Love your perspective, it's like a breath of fresh air in a sea of sameness.

Oliver was glad to help out! 😁

As another person who tore a mountain apart to build my place in 1997. !! I I hauled 100,000 cu yds if material!! And built 3 rock walls 250’ x30. ‘ high. Out of 12’-4’ rocks !! My driveway took 3 weeks itself. Plus rocking the bank later. Built my new house too!! Septic, sewer /water also. I did roofing,drywall

What a sweet child🥰. Blessed to have such great parents who will teach him terrific values just by their own example. You guys are wonderful people

Courtney & Riley, great team work. Mom will love her new visit home. YOU GUYS ROCK!❤❤❤

Love the long episode. I have also really enjoyed this build. Thanks for the ride.

Using a roller to paint with out a stick on the roller? So much easier. No bending. Long strokes and way faster. Time to watch more youtubes on painting with a roller.

If I haven't said it before I want to say it now, Courtney is the best taper and painter I have seen on any RU-vid video. And I have watched a lot of them. I have done a fair amount of taping and have commented on many videos to try to provide helpful hints at how to do it better. However I do not see anything Courtney could do to improve her job as she is spot on with every step of the process. She could be the gold standard in how to do drywall finishing.

I believe Oliver looks like his Dad. Would love to see a picture of his Dad when he was Oliver's age. No matter who he looks like he is a cutie.

The tiny house is looking amazing. I think your mom will be proud to call it her home away from home. Nice work guys.

Oliver is great!! So nice to see him included in your projects. Enjoyed watching the three of you working together on this project for grandma, I'm sure she will appreciate it so much more being able to watch it being completed.😀🙃

Very much appreciated _Swirly_ _Bird_ in the music! It was very subtle, but enough to trigger big smiles in me! Now I need to go listen to the whole thing!

A couple of quick tricks from a 18 year General Contractor; use your hand saw for long cuts like that, that you used your plunge cut multitool for. Less noise and is faster. Two, on that long 5" strip you could have not cut off the 1/2" edge and cut a 4 1/2 piece and put it above the other piece as it was going to get corner treatment anyway so it didn't matter which piece overlapped which.

I always transfer paint (if I intend to store it long term) in 1 gallon milk jugs AND I store the jug upside down so the solvent can not evaporate very well (if at all) Same goes for paint cans. If the seal between lid and can is good store the can upside down...

Courtney has magic fingers with that caulking! Awesome job !!

Just a suggestion. I'd keep the dogs around Oliver. If your gonna be inside busy. The dogs could deter mountain lions or any other threat.

Put a piece of cardstock under the trim when sawing to give a tiny bevel. Makes joints look tighter.

Courtney can even make tape & mudding look fun. Love the corners Courtney! Oliver is still the star of the show! Love is: sanding for your wife as a surprise 🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s

Just a tip for storing paint .After making sure lid on tight store the can upside down it keeps the air out

You are the first RU-vidr I’ve seen hang drywall and actually use the drywall dimpler ! 👍

At first I thought the rounded trowel could be for super sized corner fillets until you took the mud out of the bucket. Ingenious!

Sandingless drywall rocks. Use a sponge. Lots of videos. You’ll love it.

Wow!! What an outstanding job to both of you!! The amazing part is that your enjoyment, during the process, was evident!! No pressure but I look forward to each vid to see your creative solutions to problems and how you have a smile on your face at the end of the day!! Some people call it acting and there may be some of that but for you two, it’s the wonderful temperament you exude!! All and all, your vids make me happy!! Thank you so much!!

He's growing so fast, he will be as creative as you two

I liked seeing your new monster truck driving down the road pulling those blocks. I had to wave like a maniac. Oliver now has SuperSize building blocks to play with. He's getting so big, so fast.

I know who is coming, they mentioned it on their channel on Monday. I follow both of you, and I am so excited to see the collaboration.

Love the longer video, tiny self contained house looks fantastic

Next time, if there is one... and you need to go to town to get trim, either buy a board that you'll need in the future, or, take a piece of pipe, or a board of course, and tape the trim to the board or pipe, to keep it rigid enough to not break. Or, Riley in all your skills at fabricating, build you an adjustable "T" mount that will slide into the receiver hitch, that will adjust up and down, and away from the truck, to haul such items. I have not seen one that would do all this, but have seen a variety of them. Also, something I really liked, it a guy built one and mounted a st of LED brake.tail lights on it, below(so as to not get in the way of what you are carrying, so it worked not only in place of a red flag thing, but also worked REALLY well at night. Trim, add wood(or what you are using), till it looks good! Said an old carpenter friend of mine!

Gentle folks, I ❤ to see Oliver smiling, that little boy is a very happy kid, Riley's genes, Courtney you won't have a sad moment with your two men ❤ you both 🇯🇲💯

Pro tip for taping especially for corners, rip the tape to length then place the tape in a bucket of water before applying, it is much easier to work with and applies without bubbling

Trimming the drywall against the ceiling, you could use a product called tear away bead....then caulk to the wood.....the trim worked out great though!

I clearly have learned bad things from having watched most of your awesome videos…!! My 1/3rd acre property needs a fair bit of landscape work, and so after deducing that the bulk of the work is digging and moving dirt, I made the rather outlandish decision to buy…. A small Chinese excavator…. What can I say - I like fun tools! I’m looking forward to seeing my wife and I master it while doing positive things to our fixer upper house and huge (tongue in cheek) property! Tool people unite! All the best - keep it fun!

What an amazing team you three make!! Very satisfying watching the interior coming together. Great job!

I just love watching your amazing progress. Nothing is too big for you two.

I preffer corner sanding blocks, they are amazing! You can attach them to a pole.

You guys are the real deal and your son is a lucky boy. ❤

I think I enjoyed this video the most for all the various content and you both seem a lot more relaxed as if there was some sort of transformation.

7:45 as a drywaller I felt this lol no truer words have been spoken!! 😂😂

I'm waiting to see how you are gonna move this thing when your done. I hope that dry wall don't crack. It's looking great Mom is gonna love it!

I've thought of your next incredible project for your property. Make your own ski trail and rope row. It'd be an in-credible way to teach your son how to ski eventually and be incredibly fun for the both of you. Summer excavation work to make the trail + fabrication of making a rope tow = the ultimate payoff this winter!

Courtney you're the best. Looking great guys.

6:41 you are the king of measurement 39:55 i told you ☺️

Oliver is a super cool little dude.

Courtney, try this next time caulking: use a small tin of soapy water on your' finger to smooth caulking , smoother finish and no caulk sticking on your' fingers. I am a painter for forty + yrs. Gary

I hope you guys were able to watch the northern lights through 11:15 PM that night. At 11 it popped dramatically and you could see the aurora in every direction.

Hi guys, here's something I learned from my early days in the Coast Guard... whenever you open a new can of painting product, take a flat tip 🪛 and 🔨 and punch holes around the top where the lid goes. 3 or 4 holes usually worked well enough for government work!

The trick to doing drywall corners is to put plenty if compound in the corners to set the folded paper tape in, remove all excess. Second, and subsequent coats only apply only one side of the corner at a time, let it dry before doing the other side of the corner. This applies to both horizontal, and vertical. Courtney, you do a very good job at taping. After taping for over 40 years I only sand twice. I apply three level coats, then sand all. Prime the walls, touch up compound holidays then sand the entire wall to prime again.

My painter decorator son-in-law taught us something about mudding that we didn’t know. Supposedly you should mud really really wide, like almost a foot away from the middle to get it really flat

I can’t wait for the WoodBrew collaboration!!!!!

It's lovely to see Oliver getting involved too. ❤

I liked the wood trim the first way. It gave the ceiling a little depth. I might do that same ceiling when I finish my garage close-in after seeing this.

Oliver is so animated, I would be happy to watch him any time. What a cool kid.

The tiny home looks great. Your mom is going to love it. Oliver is so cute and his cheeks don’t you want to pinch them. You 2 are so talented.

When I saw Riley with a power sander. All I could think was Riley if you chew up all of Courtney’s mudding and taping you’ll be in so much trouble 😅

Fireman: Awesome as usually! Please, don’t put your hand and fingers so close to the table saw blade. One issue and your life changes forever and you can’t take it bake. Use push sticks or something even better. I say it cause I care.

Look for kitchen blenders at yard sale, for reblending paint that has glumpled. Yes do a test to see how and if it will dry.

Next time you use paper tape, throw the roll in a bucket of water, then pull the tape out of the water as you use it. Helps to fold it for corners and keeps it from bubbling when it dries.

All of that dry walling completed in one episode. We love that. You guys are literally champions. It’s looking brilliant!

Great job guys!!!! Perhaps on your next project you might incorporate a reveal on your drywall edges. They look incredible awesome especially on the ceiling.

Great job you two! Your Mama is going to love it She is blessed to have you in her life. You guys are such a breath of fresh air. ❤

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Very interesting and entertaining build. Waiting to see if you use curtains on the windows or splurge and get LCD switchable film for the windows. Wishing you and your family the best. If your doing much drywall sanding you may also consider buy a water filled dust trap for your vacuum line. They sell kits but you could easily put one together with a few scraps you come across. It’s basically a bucket with a matching lid and a section on hose and fittings that allow you to put it in between the vacuum and the hose. The inlet fitting accepts the vacuum line on the outside and extends down into the bucket below about 1/2 to 3/4 of the way into the bucket. A good option would be a extension hose cut in half and glued into two holes in the lid. Filling the bucket with water above the extension into the bucket causes the air to be bubbled thru the water collecting all the drywall dust. The only think that ends up in the shop vacuum is at most a few drops of water. The mud in the collection bucket is very much like the stuff before you put it on the wall. Pondered trying to reuse it but since I had plenty of mud I didn’t risk it. 😂

Who needs a ladder when you got a Courtney 😂❤🙌

Wow!! That little Tiny House is looking so great.It all goes to show you with the right tools,you can do anything.Keep up the good work.:)))

Courtney - that was CLEAN caulking girl!!!

She is looking good and so is the tiny house 🙂 Mom is going to love it 💚💚

Ni kommer att ha nytta av alla färdigheter . När huset är klart så vill ni ha ett garage till alla fordon som ni har . Sedan vill ni självklart ha en snickarverkstad . En fin matkällare , Ett gästhus , En ny lada för era djur . Eller hur ? Vi följare vill självklart se allt Så om 10 år är det klart å då är det dags för någon renovering av huset 🙂

Courtney is very photogenic, Riley you are a lucky fella to have such a beautiful princess in your life ❤

Awesome job on the tiny house your mom is gonna love it

Love the drywall work. I need to hire you. 😊Your little helper is precious. ❤

Courtney add water to a new bucket of mud save ur hands and wrist! Spreads much easier. Looks awesome

Watching Oliver I can see that there is a LOT going on in that precious little head, get ready soon enough You Will be taking orders ! 😆❤ I think he's holding back and is about to explode into a very smart little boy.

Major points for listening to Jinks!

Oliver and the hammer so cute!!!!

I come from a long line of “mud dawbers” (drywall finishers). Courtney is really good!! Most other creators I’ve watched struggle and most fall short. 🙂

Another tip an 82 year old mud taper taught me ,45 years ago is to Take the paper and hold it up where you’re gonna put it like ceiling to floor tear it off you could do as many as you need and then put in a 5 gallon bucket about three-quarter full of water, and as you pull them out with one hand, put two fingers on the paper, one on each side and pull the paper through your fingers to get the excess water off and then put it on the wet mud that you pre-applied to the seam, and then Run your 6 inch knife lightly over the paper and down and then apply mud and then take your 12 inch knife and finish it off and you’re done with that seam the same with corners same with horizontal or wherever paper tape goes. It is a better job and never ever peels away your way will work probably fine but the word is probably 95% of the time but my way works 100% of the time next time you mud and tape you might want to try it thanks bye-bye

I really enjoy watching you two work as I've done most of the things you do. Today and in past taping jobs I've waited for someone to suggest a corner knife for taping inside corners. It will help greatly.

The excavator is the best view on the property!

To accommodate hand rails you may need in the future you might consider one of 2 options 1. replace the 2x4 stud wall in the bathroom with 4x4s or cover the walls in 1in plywood. The screws need some meat to grab to hold safely. Also a Fresh air exchanger and a dehumidifier to control both indoor pollution and excess moisture. your metal box does not have does not allow for whole house fresh air exchanges. You might want to go to Schwitzer for an unobstructed view of the northern shy.

❤ looks amazing guys. ❤ Oliver is growing up very quickly now. Just beautiful ❤. Sending lots of love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤❤❤

Won't be long before Oliver is helping build stuff

You two are absolutely amazing and Oliver is a very happy baby and also adorable , love to all of you. ♥️♥️♥️

What a wonderfull video. You guys are so wholsome and happy.

What a transformation from a container to small house ....awesome....Stay safe and see you on the next one

I didn’t expect yall to upload this quick lol. I just watched all the other videos so I was expecting at least another 3 weeks until the next video 😂

NICE job on the casings for the windows - WELL DONE!!!

Great video and the progress from container to tiny house is amazing, cannot wait to see the finished product

Next trick; keep a sheetrock nail and a sheetrock hammer in your nail bag. when you are by your self, or even if you don't have a beautiful helper like Cortney, you start one nail in the middle of any sheet and you hang it and use the nail to hold the sheet until you can get the screws in it. RenoRoger

We figured there would be too much light pollution here in Coeur dAlene to see the Northern Lights, so we drove up to Priest Lake. It was incredible to see, especially once the moon set it was super clear to see the reds and greens. Tiny home is looking great.

Wow could be a business by itself. Murfey bed transformation. I want one.

Great having Oliver on site. Parents did the same with bro & I in their upholstery & cabinet making shop. We learned to be perfectionists.

Wow, that did turn out great! 👍 👌 👏 I'm with Riley on the repeating patterns drive me absolutely INSANE!

You guys are doing an awesome job as a matter fact everything you work on turns out awesome I am so amazed with you guys as ability to build things and make things work plus, Oliver is super Duper Duper cute sending you guys love. I can’t wait for the next episode.

The little one looks really great, bright eye'd (not drugged via ... ) and acting very smart. He will make a great helper (if he isn't already)... 🙂

Wow! You are making quick work of finishing the mama container!!

Riley, you should be willing to be silly more often. The dad joke vibes are fun. Been watching since the home made camper days. Love the channel and am always impressed with how the production quality continues to improve. Congratulations on your success.
