I have finally started my solo off-grid shipping container home build and I could not be more excited!
In the last couple of weeks, I finished building my own house foundations for under $6k when I was quoted $60k for contractors to do it and I installed a concrete shed slab myself for under $4k!
This week I need to finish prepping the footings and then the containers are finally arriving, along with my extra storage container!
I have recently moved across the country due to the housing crisis and bought an off-grid property with the dream to build my own container house.
I became an owner builder and after 8 months of design and planning I was approved to build my own home in Western Australia.

Next time you need to drill holes in metal try using some oil on the bit. It helps to lubricate and cool the bit so it drills better and doesn't get dull as fast. They make special oil for drilling metal but you can use motor oil if you cannot get the right kind. Any oil will be better than nothing. Also the bigger the drill size you use the slower the drill speed you should use. Just a few useful tip from one who has drilled a lot of holes.

Very cool project. For next time, the 3-4-5 method to establish a right angle works with any units as long as you measure all the sides using the same units. 3m-4m-5m works or 30cm-40cm-50cm or any variation.

@AlexDoes 4 месяца назад

Awesome progress Jaz. Great to see the containers arrive. The gold colour drill is called a step drill. Lubrication like WD40 helps with drilling steel, also keep your drill bits sharp, can be done with a bench grinder. And mixing two stroke is best done in the jerry can before putting in the auger. Once again absolutely loving the content. Fantastic! Can't wait for the next one. Cheers, Alex.

Jasmine, use a bit of oil while drilling to keep the bit cool. Also on steel plates like this use a low rpm and you will feel the bit cutting into the steel like butter. Great work again, I love the freedom you created for yourself.

@jimiemick 3 месяца назад

Came here from IG!!! When drilling, use cutting fluid. Will drill so much quicker and less wear on the drill bits Same with drilling in clay, when it gets harder, stop put a bucket or two of water in it. Let it sit. Will make it abit easier. So so stoked to see your progress It’s giving me motivation to do the same

@Building.a.Dream-Barefoot_Jas 3 месяца назад

Hey hey!! Thank you for being here for the journey thank you for the advice! The clay tip unfortunately doesn’t work water has been soaking in the clay for a month and it’s still rock hard unfortunately but that’s okay hopefully I can cantilever it 🙏☺️

Trick for digging with the auger in hard ground, dig as far as you can and then fill the hole with water. Move to the next hole and do the same thing. When you run out of holes go back to the first hole and the water should have softened the clay and you will be able to dig it some more. Keep drilling, keep adding water.

@Building.a.Dream-Barefoot_Jas 4 месяца назад

I tried to auger where the ground was soaked in the dam and same result unfortunately but I’m hoping to get the jack hammer down there and that should do the trick! Thank you so much for the advice

Utterly amazing work, I cannot imagine the effort both mental and physical! Just one item to make life easier the 3-4-5 triangle to get a right angle works with anything in ratio - 3-4-5 metres, 30-40-50 cm... take your pick. The longer the more precise tho.

And it works for multiples as well. 2x’s=6-8-10, 3x’s=9-12-15, etc. 12-16-20 15-20-25. 5-12-13 is another right triangle that would be more accurate in some situations. The bigger the better.

So cool. Tip for pouring liquids is to hold the container so the opening is at the top, yep feels weird but you won’t spill as much. Also you saw how easy the 20’ slid off the tilt tray, as a former wharfie I can tell you that containers stacked on each other slide in big winds so secure that 40’.

@Building.a.Dream-Barefoot_Jas 4 месяца назад

Thank you so much for the advice!! Yeah the container guys warned me of this too so the top one is connected with twistable locks and the bottoms level containers I’m welding to the steel plates ☺️ the guys were saying a ‘hover’ effect happens under the 40’s or something and they slide? That would be scary! Haha

@johnmagnan759 3 месяца назад

One thing is for sure you are going to save a bunch of money doing it yourself. Bonus side of things you have the internet and there is a RU-vid video for just about anything you want to do in construction. Plus you'll learn the hard way on some things. In the states we call that the school of hard knocks. I'm old so most of my learning was at the school of hard knocks. Got a Ph.D. in getting shit done. LOL

@Building.a.Dream-Barefoot_Jas 3 месяца назад

😂😂😂 yes I absolutely love that “got a PHD in getting shit done” that’s one of the best things I’ve heard in a while! And thank you I know it won’t be easy but the best things never are , I’ll get there and the mistakes will only give me more experience 🙏

@toddscollectibles980 4 месяца назад

Hey Jazz, the “little thing” you weren’t sure what to call it looks like a STEP BIT. At one time it probably had numbers (metric) or fractions on the side, but likely worn off now. A few more tips. Make sure you’re using a bit designed for steel, a cobalt bit. Looks like you’ve already seen the tips to use oil to cool the bit. Last tip I have is they have cheap hand sharpeners for bits that work ok. They help keep an edge on your bit. I wasn’t paying close attention, but are you using a smaller bit to start your hole? Or is that what you were using the step bit for? A regular bit might give it more to bite into.

@SeansNewWorld 4 месяца назад

Jasmine, the bit you called a little guy is called a step bit or unibit. Keep up the good work and I love your personality 👍

@Building.a.Dream-Barefoot_Jas 4 месяца назад

Thank you so much so good to know! And thanks I’m so glad you’re enjoying the videos ☺️

@ambermorton8882 Месяц назад

Just wow superwoman ❤. This is the first video I've watched of yours so im sorry if this has already been discussed but i saw a video recently about using pigs to seal dams.

@Building.a.Dream-Barefoot_Jas Месяц назад

Hello! Welcome to the journey so excited to share it with you, the dam is sealed now and completely full ☺️🙏

@robertgarland9342 4 месяца назад

Doing well and I'm happy to see the containers arrived safely. For me if there is one piece of building equipment I really hate it's something that is powered by a temperamental 2 stroke engine and that Auger post hole digger would drive me nuts not starting when I want it to. I hope your arms are not too badly stretched after digging more holes.

@Building.a.Dream-Barefoot_Jas 4 месяца назад

Yeah I honestly feel the same! It’s definitely caused me more trouble than anything and my arms are alright but I’m back to hand digging 😂

@RobertJLessard 4 месяца назад

You're doing great. If you have any oil a bit on the metal where you are drilling will help.

@Building.a.Dream-Barefoot_Jas 4 месяца назад
