shipping container workshop?

why not just leave it 30ft ?
more space the better.

or repair the farm shed roof :)

Don't have the space, the 30 ft containers are £500 but the 20 and 10 ft are both £1500. Mainly cause the big ones are hard to handle.

Its not the leaks it's the condensation. The only sure fire way to stop it is to heat the space the machine sits in but this isn't practical so i was hoping insulating the container plus adding a shipping container damp stick will stop the condensation. Not sure it will work?

The other plus point is I could sit a small heafter in the container and I can be warm.

so the plan is to cut the 30ft container down the middle to 15ft.

how do you plan closing up the end.... ?
once its in half what end would you be using..... the part with the doors or with the back end.

i guess whatever end you use, you would have to put the other end on it.
unless you cut 15ft out of the container and weld the two parts back together ?
that would proberly be less work.

[gavztheouch]

No two cuts, one in the middle and one in one of the other sides to end up with both ends still on the container.

yes i see.
what do you plan on using to insulate it.
and what will you cover the insulation with.

[gavztheouch]

Spray insulation and then maybe osb or plywood or possibly just leave the foam exposed.
