By | Education | No Comments

 

Join us as we sit down with our past client, Josh Turner (JT), following the opening of his tiki bar made from a sea can.

You won’t believe your eyes when you see how well this container modification turned out!

JT will take us through all the steps that brought his container bar vision to life. From conceptual computer renderings to serving tropical beverages on the beach — JT’s story is inspiring!

JT offers valuable advice to others who want to build their dream business out of a shipping container, and we also get the inside scoop on his exciting plans for the future.

We had a blast at JT’s Beach Cafe & Tiki Bar located in Blackstrap Provincial Park and loved how he decorated his modified container.
The food and drinks were an exotic treat that we’ll never forget!

We cannot wait to work with him again on his next mod.

We Have An Announcement!

By | Uncategorized | No Comments

Dear viewers,

We have decided to take a break from YouTube to bring you better quality videos that will take you along as we modify shipping containers and install accessories.

Halfway through filming our past videos, we learned that using a GoPro and mic that wasn’t even plugged in was not the best way to do this. So we have brought on new staff, purchased a new office, new camera, and computer gear, and we will focus on pre-production to give you a better viewing experience.

A few months ago, we started a YouTube channel to provide you with the correct information on container modification and container homes. There is a lot of misconception about container homes out there. We want to make sure you have the right information to build your next container project.

We have so many exciting videos coming soon, so please be patient! We will still be posting on our other social media sites, including YouTube Shorts, so follow us on our platforms to keep up with what we are doing. We will see you soon!

By | Uncategorized | No Comments

In this video, we will show you how to install shelving on the end walls and sidewalls of your shipping container using the Bolt-On D-Ring and Shelving Brackets. This is a quick and easy way to install shelves in your sea can without welding or puncturing holes through the container walls. You can use this product to help organize your shipping container shed, storage unit, office, or home.

This product also allows you to add lashing points to secure freight and container stuffing while also keeping it wind and watertight and cargo-worthy. The D-Rings are laser-cut so you can install them on the floor or ceiling of end walls or sidewalls of a Conex box.
