 I think I may have found a sort of Shangri-La for those of us dreaming of doing anything we want with a piece of property–building what the heck we want without kissing the asses of the building department to push an idea through. Oh yes… This is a really good find I am going to [...]  I will paste the post I created in my search for investors in my shipping container modification company. I am still looking. It’s a ground-floor opportunity. Here is the post: Ever wake up on any random Monday from an inadequate slumber, hittin’ snooze just a tad harder than last Friday, full-bladdered, and think to yourself: [...] Ever wake up on any random Monday from an inadequate slumber, hittin’ snooze just a tad harder than last Friday, full-bladdered, and think to yourself: Geez, this sucks!? The daily grind… The same ol’ same ol’… Asking yourself: “Is this it? Is this really what my life is about?” Not being able to distinguish January [...]  After running this site and communicating with the VAST numbers of people interested in container home building, I would have to say that besides the out-of-the-box thinking (no pun intended) of living inside a converted shipping container once used to ship goods across the world, price is the other key ingredient. Many emails have come [...]  OK, so I have a new favorite container home (till I build mine). I like more of the setting and the artistry than the overall beauty of the home. Either way, wow! This pic is of a 7-container home built by Maison IDEKIT Home, a French Canadian firm. The home already answers a couple of [...]  There are shipping container modification companies throughout the world. They are busily cutting, grinding and welding away; churning out special order containers suited to meet the needs of their customers. Some do it better than others. There is a company called Bullman Marine (or simply Bullmans to those familiar) that performs modifications in London. I [...]  Ok, I know, I have been away… The site stagnated for a bit there, but I have to make money like other peeps and have been working on a huge website project which is finally wrapping up, so I figured I would come back to my baby and nurture it along with a fresh post [...]  I am an avid outdoorsman and extreme fisherman (whatever that means). Put a pole in my hand; toss in a stream, river, lake, sea or ocean and I am in heaven. I used to own a nice center-console fishing boat when I lived near the ocean in San Diego back in the 90′s–but got rid [...]  The day you walk into your local building department and say: “I want to build a home from shipping containers…” What do you think will happen? For jurisdictions that have no clue what you are talking about or just aren’t open to the idea, you are facing an uphill battle. What to do? From talking [...]  Why do I like OtherPower.com? Well, they know nothing about this write-up and I have never introduced myself to them; but I like them because they provide parts and insight into creating your own DIY wind turbine power generation system and anything else that makes electricity. It’s basically a one-stop shop for all your Edison-inspired [...] |
