Shipping containers as shaping/glassing bays?

I’ve always wondered about using old shipping containers as shaping/glassing/airbrush bays. Article in WSJ this morning indicates that a used container 20-40 feet long will cost between $1000-to-$1300 dollars; I would assume that includes delivery. Plunk one or more of these bad boys down and run a 20A line to each plus some metal cutting modifications and I think you’d be in business in short order. A quick search shows that internal height is between 7’9" and 8’9" feet and internal width is pretty standard at 7’7" (a little tight for SUPs). A 40’ length would easily hold two bays. A simple 20’ would be good for a roomy single + storage. Food for thought.

I’ve seen a shaping bay container and a glassing container side by side to each other. Looks like ample space.

Depending on where you live, these are great for all kinds of things, including a home.

A few guys here have used / discussed them in the past - I think maybe yorky, girvin, insanecutback were a few.

these guys took it to the extreme

…not enough space to “see” a long board; cannot put a long board standing up right; claustrophobic room; and you ears SHOULD have ALWAYS protection; is a resonator!
If you have no problems with the houses besides, do it in steel framing with the walls and ceiling in iso panels.

That is a cool video. The guy doing the rather large mural with spray cans must have a really large right forearm.

All that spray can effort and they are just sanding the ridges off preshaped CNC blanks, too bad, so sad.
