bought a 40 foot shipping container to store my antique vw busses in. and now we need to add some venting so the inside will not condensate. we also try the new lenox metal cutting wheel and see how it holds up.

    This is pretty much what i did with my insulated truck container, it was mostly aluminium, plywood and fibreglass so i used my makita hacksaw. Sealed with tape and expanding foam lol

    Dude, I cut one back in the late 80s. Cut 2 windows and a door between them about center of the box. Then 2 skylights 1 on each end. Not as easy as it looks is it. Made a nice office though, The Boss loved it .P.S. It was an insulated one.

    Hi Friend, I think you do need a couple more of containers ( not 40 feet but 80 feet ++) and some square YARDS of roofing – sheets with a few yards of structure !!! so good work and it could be a kind of urgent ….? All the best Friend !!!

    I just wanted to say if you wait long enough, two years from now you're going to buy a really nice press brake that would make that job a lot easier.
